Answer:
I would look up a quizlet for the stuff you are learning. It really helped me with Apex English 10 semester 1 and semester 2.

People post quizlets with answers for some of the quizzes and test, as well as explain the information and give tips on how to remember it. Quizlet itself allows you to study the content so it is a great study tool whether your teacher actually teaches the stuff or not. I hope this helped, I apologize if it didnt.

Answer:
C). Nature is beautiful, calming, and inspiring.
Explanation:
Thoreau's "Solitude" primarily throws light upon the idea of 'solitude or isolation' actually being an opportunity where one can experience self-communion and contemplation/introspection.'
In this excerpt, Thoreau discusses a 'delicious evening' which he spent in the lap of nature, 'a part of herself.' He considers the nature to be 'beautiful, soothing, and inspiring' as reflected by the descriptions 'elements are unusually congenial to me', 'bullfrogs usher in the night...water', 'pleasantest hours', 'ssothed by seaseless roar', 'twililight usher..', 'tempted' , etc. reflect that how he is in union with the every bit of nature and thus, questions 'why should I feel lonely.' This justifies the above deduction and hence, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Imperialist ideals are reflected heavily in this answer. The paragraph acknowledges the tragedy of the negatives effects imperialism brought the native Americans. Yet, right after, it gives a reason as to why it wasn't that bad for both sides. Someone with Imperialist views would most likely write this paragraph to push the blame away from them a little.
The figurative language used in the passage is a simile .
Answer:
At this very moment, the International Space Station orbits Earth at a distance of 240 miles.
Explanation:
We use the simple present tense when we talk about actions that happen often, habitual actions, or truths that usually do not change or that take some time to change. For example: I sleep at 10 in the evening. / Dogs bark and birds fly. / Dora lives in Spain.
Therefore, since the orbit of the International Space Station is a truth that will most likely take long to change, it seems best to use the simple present to complete the sentence. Since the subject is third-person singular, we must add -s to the verb:
- At this very moment, the International Space Station orbits Earth at a distance of 240 miles.
Note: Another possibility would be the use of the present continuous: "is orbiting". However, that makes it seem this is just a temporary action that will, at any moment, change.
