Answer:
A. Pyramus and Thisbe speak through the wall that separates their houses.
B. Pyramus arrives at the meeting place before Thisbe returns.
C. Thisbe arrives at the meeting place ahead of Pyramus.
Explanation:
These are the three options that happened by chance that affected the outcome of "Pyramus and Thisbe".
Pyramus and Thisbe is a story about two young Babylonia lovers who fall in love with each other but whose families hate each other so they find a way to talk to each other through the wall and when they can no longer bear it, they decide to elope.
The two lovers agree to meet at the mulberry tree but Thisbe arrives before Pyramus and sees a lioness with a bloodied jaw from a recent kill, she assumes the lioness has killed Pyramus, she screams and runs away from the scene.
Shortly after, Pyramus arrives at the meeting place before Thisbe returns and sees the same lioness with bloodied jaw and assumes Thisbe has been devoured by it. In his grief, he kills himself, but before he dies he sees Thisby and discovers she's still alive. Thisby also kills herself.

thinking about another person and all the possibilities of being with this person to a vine wrapping itself endlessly around a tree.</span>
The correct answer from each drop-down menu are the following ones:
The article "The Melting Arctic" attempst to win over public opinion by making use of persuasive techniques. One such technique is the use of <u>scientific data ,</u> which relies on proofs, graphs, and charts. The article also relies on <u>expert opinion,</u> which involves the endorsement of an idea or opinion by a renowned professional in that particular field.
In contrast, the NOAA video uses visuals of animals to appeal to the viewer's <u>emotions.</u> It makes <u>passionate</u> claims about the worsening Arctic conditions and the adverse effects they have on animal life.
The linking word "in contrast" indicates that what is about to be introduced should be the opposite to whas has been said. Consequently, as the first paragraph talks about scientific data, the second one should appeal to the opposite of that, that is, emotions and beliefs. "Passionate" is the only adjective in the examples that has a positive connotation that can be put together with the first option ("emotions").
Bradbury is trying to show how this society is constantly bombarded with media. In this case, it's advertisements pounding them into a passive state. No one on the train is talking or interacting. They are just sitting listening to the advertisement like they are being brainwashed into buying denham's dentifrice. In contrast to this Montag is trying to read a passage from the Bible about letting go of material things (including Denham's dentifrice). This juxtaposition between the natural world and materialism further shows how society is so wrapped up in media that they are unaware of the world around them.
The correct answer is A. Major Tallmadge developed a unique code system so that the Americans could send secret messages.
Explanation:
To find the central idea in a text, ask yourself what is the main idea the author expresses?. For example, in the passage presented the author focuses on the system Major Tallmadge created and how this system was very elaborated or complex, which is shown through details such as "He substituted digits for words" or "Tallmadge gave his agents a cipher". Moreover, the author implicitly suggests this was used for Americans to send secret messages as he mentions important American military leaders such as "Woodhull, Townsend, and General Washington" and shows how important was that the messages were only understood by few. In this context, the main idea is "Major Tallmadge developed a unique code system so that the Americans could send secret messages".
