Why do Giles Corey and Francis nurse appear at the proctors house? This is also from the book “the crucible”
noname [10]

Answer:

They arrived because they wanted to warn John Proctor that their wives being arrested. ... He arrived to arrest Elizabeth Proctor and to search the house for any poppets. He is a warrant and is the person that arrests the accused.

More:

In Act Two, it becomes frighteningly apparent that the accusations of witchcraft have gotten out of control.  Elizabeth Proctor tells John at the beginning of the act that "there be fourteen people in jail," but by the time that Mary Warren gets home at the end of the day, that number has increased to "thirty-nine."  It becomes personal when Herrick and Cheever show up at the Proctor's door to arrest Elizabeth, on suspicion of sending her spirit out to stab Abigail in the stomach with a needle. So, Elizabeth Proctor is chained and put in a wagon with a lot of other women, to be taken to the jailhouse.

Francis Nurse and Giles Corey are also victims to the out-of-control accusations that are occuring; the same night that Elizabeth is arrested, their wives, Rebecca Nurse and Martha Corey are arrested too.  Rebecca is arrested for the "supernatural murder of Goody Putnam's babies," and Martha Corey for supposedly bewitching a guy's pigs so that they keep dying.  Francis and Giles go to Proctor, because they are seeking help--they want to find a way to get their wives freed.  They had already gone to the jailhouse but they weren't allowed to see their wives, so they come to John's house, desperate to come up with some sort of solution to get their wives released, as they are innocent of any crime.

John wants to help, but tells them to go home that night and that they will "speak on it tomorrow."  He needs time to think, to sort everything out in his head.  The next act shows the three men coming to the courts, and trying over and over to free their wives and friends.

Poe often drew inspiration for his tales from the real world. Compare the details of "The Story Behind ‘The Cask of Amontillado'
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Considering the real life story "The Story Behind the Cask of Amontillado" and Poe's "The Cask of Amontillado" bear striking similarities.

In the real life version, a spiteful army Captain kills a young Lieutenant. The pals of the latter sells him  drinks and take him to a dungeon where they bind him and seal him up inside alive. No one figured out the enigma behind his vanishing and his body wasn't found till years later.

Poe uses this real life story to create a fiendish portrait of a man who is willing to go to the same length to seek revenge. Poe's protagonist uses the same method to kill his enemy and is never caught either.

Differences:

In the real life version, the soldiers are hot headed young men who want to take vengeance for their friend's untimely death. In Poe's story, however, Montresor is a cold-blooded killer who enjoys executing every moment of his sinister plan. Also, his victim's crime was merely insulting him on some occasion.

New math: Fail + try again = real learning

Teachers increasingly urge students to risk failing as a route to ultimate

success

By Susan Moran

2015

PART A: Which statement identifies the central idea of the text?

A. Math is best taught using discovery-based learning as people are more likely to  fail in math.

B. Allowing and encouraging people to fail helps them to make sense of what they  are learning.

C. Although people can learn even when they fail at least once, they are still  negatively affected by their failure.

D. Younger people learn better through hands-on activities that can result in  failure, while adults learn better through risk-free lectures.

2. PART B: Which detail from the text best supports the answer to Part A?

A. “A century ago, after five months and more than 9,000 experiments, famed  inventor Thomas Edison still wasn’t able to make a new type of storage battery  work, according to a 1910 authorized biography.” (Paragraph 5)

B. “‘If you’re engaged in a hard problem, you’re developing an attitude that failure  is okay,’ says Walker. ‘Accepting failure helps you learn’” (Paragraph 9)

C. “As Walker suggests, the technique often goes hand-in-hand with inquiry-based  learning. Students often teach and mentor one another.” (Paragraph 14)

D. “A related approach is also seeping into K-12 math education. Common Core is a  set of educational standards that 43 states and the District of Columbia have  adopted.” (Paragraph 20)

Answer:

B. Allowing and encouraging people to fail helps them to make sense of what they  are learning.

B. “‘If you’re engaged in a hard problem, you’re developing an attitude that failure  is okay,’ says Walker. ‘Accepting failure helps you learn’” (Paragraph 9)

Explanation:

The article´s main idea is that failing can benefit education because mistakes help us learn and develop creative ideas.

Teachers who have applied the “guide on the side” teaching style found that their students learned that failure could lead to new ideas and discoveries. Furthermore, scientific research claims that those students learn more with this approach.
