Read the excerpt from We Shall Not Be Moved. Everywhere in the garment district, by the front gates of little shops and big ones

, picketers marched and sang. "O Dubinushka," they sang, and "Tortured and Enslaved," and other Russian folk and revolutionary airs. Icy rains poured down on them, some were in danger of frostbite — a winter of record-breaking cold had already begun — but there they were and there they stayed. The union men were amazed. "There never was anything like it," one ILGWU official declared. "An equal number of men never would hold together under what these girls are enduring.” How would a careful rereading of this excerpt help a reader understand who made up the ILGWU?
A. The reader could make a connection between the quote by one ILGWU official and the author’s reference to “union men” just before it.
B. The reader could make a connection between the quote by one ILGWU official and the reference to “these girls” in the same quote.
. C. The reader could make a connection between the quote by one ILGWU official and the author’s description of “other Russian folk” in the first paragraph.
D. The reader could make a connection between the quote by one ILGWU official and the descriptive phrase “they sang” in the first paragraph.

ILGWU is The International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union therefore the correct answer is B ( The reader could make a connection between the quote by one ILGWU official and the reference to “these girls” in the same quote) this is the only option that demonstrates that the ILGWU was made by women by quoting "these girls"

The other options are not correct since they talk about other people around the ILGWU in option A they quote "union men" in option C "other Russian Folk" and in option D "they sang" which is an activity not a group of people.

10) ‘Strangely, she lifted us up like a feather on a breeze.’ What is being compared in this simile from the passage? A) a feath
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

10. D 11. A 12. A 13. B 14. D 15. C

Explanation:

10. A simile is a figure of speech which involves the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind. This is used to make a description more emphatic or vivid. For example, you can say as brave as a lion. This simply means the person you are talking about is very brave just like a lion that is not usually fearful. The same is also applicable when you say 'she lifted us up like a feather on a breeze' (meaning just like a feather is so light weighted and can easy be carried by the air, so also the way the tornado lifted the car in the air; they felt so light). More examples of similes are 'As cute as a kitten; meaning the person being referred to is so cute'. 'As tall as a giraffe; meaning the person in question is so tall'. 'As sweet as a sugar; meaning the thing we are describing is so sweet just like a sugar'. 'My love for you is as deep as the ocean; meaning the kind of love you have for the person is just so much that it cannot be described'.

Simile usually makes our words more meaningful and so easy to understand. It gives an in depth meaning when we write by making our languages more descriptive and enjoyable. Similes is used by both poets, writers and songwriters for emphasis. Similes, when used can be very funny, creative, mean and serious.

11. The selection is told from the first person’s point of view. It is obvious the first person was trying to make others understand how he or she must have felt when the car sudden lifted them up in the air.

12. Oblivious in this context simply meant they absolutely were not aware of what was happening around them. They were so clueless at that point with no idea of what was happening at that point.

13. The author is trying to make us understand what it feels like when a tornado occurs and the fear that comes with it. The emotional trauma that comes with it; having full knowledge that a life can be lost as a result.

14. The most related idea to the theme of the passage is a ‘Life-Changing Experience’.  

15 The author of the passage will strongly agree with the fact that ignoring warning signs can lead to life-threatening consequences and as such, we should never have to be ignorant of this.

marysya [2.9K]

The parallel between Victor Frankenstein's story and the story of Prometheus and Pandora lies in the fact that VICTOR CREATES LIFE IN THE MONSTER JUST AS PROMETHEUS AND PANDORA CREATED LIFE IN HUMANS.

Joshua is preparing a report to show the relationship between average kinetic energy and temperature. Is his graph accurate? Exp
andriy [413]

The atoms and molecules that make up a gas are constantly moving. Temperature is a measure of the speed with which they move (more accurately it is a measure of their kinetic energy). The higher the temperature, the faster they move.  It is thus produced a greater intensity in the collisions against the walls: the pressure of the container containing the gas increases.In this way, if the graph shows the increase in temperature as well as the increase in speed, yes, it is correct.
