The answer is "I can't believe she did that to me. From now on we'll call her Brutus"

the others are just facts about famous literature.
This answer uses Brutus, who stabbed his friend in the back, in a common sentence. Whoever is upset at a girl for doing something wrong alludes to Brutus from Julius Caesar

WITCHER [35]

English I, II Bell Ringer

Weeks 21/22, Day 1/ 2

LA.910.1.7.7 The student will compare and contrast elements in multiple texts

(e.g., setting, characters, and problems).

Read the passage and select the best answer.

Scott started nodding off in class. Mrs. Thomas tapped his desk as she passed it.

They started off the school year without a teacher and now that they had a teacher

they missed the substitute teachers. The class took advantage of every substitute

teacher that came in to teach. They would take turns dropping books, pass notes all

period, and take turns pretending to sneeze. Each day a different substitute teacher

would show up and every day they did everything they could think of to annoy

him or her. No one learned anything. The new teacher put an end to their antics.

The more disruptive they were, the more homework they received. It was bad

enough that she gave a ton of homework every night no matter how well behaved

they were. Scott looked over at his teammate Brian and smiled. He couldn’t wait

until the track meet this afternoon. Brian was an expert at the hurdles and Scott

was king of the long jump. Scott was having difficulty in school lately. He was

more interested in staying up late watching television and he was having difficulty

staying awake in class as a result. Brian was also struggling but he was having

trouble sleeping at night due to family problems. It seemed lately that his parents

arguments became louder and louder every night.

Read this excerpt from Immigrant Kids.
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

to explain the feelings of worry experienced by an

immigrant family.

Explanation:

This is the excerpt from Russell Freedman's book "The Immigrant Kids" which tells the story of late 1800s and early 1900s immigrant families arriving in America. Upon arrival, the kids underwent rigorous examinations in order to prevent them from bringing any contagious disease into the country.

However, this excerpt doesn't deal with description of the physical examination; it rather focuses on the fear and constant anxiety triggered by the possibility of a family member being banned from entering the country.

It strongly depicts that family worries never stopped, not even after reaching American soil.
