This question refers to "Drum Dream Girl" by Margarita Engle.

Answer:

The correct answer is option C. They highlight the powerful dreams the girl has about playing the drums.

Explanation:

The girl loved to play the piano no matter what others said.

It had always been her dream and the fact that their parents told her that only boys should play the piano did not prevent her from doing what she liked best.

The words the author uses prove it. Let's look at the following quotes:

<em>"At home, her fingertips rolled out their own dreamy drum rhythm on tables and chairs ..." </em>

<em>"Her hands seemed to fly as they rippled rapped and pounded all the rhythms of her drum dreams."</em>

1. Why did China have a favorable balance of trade with Great Britain until the Second Opium War?
Lena [83]
The increasing flood of opium into China was causing all manner of social problems (including corruption with colluding local officials). Attempts by China's rulers to curtail this flood -- while still refusing other forms of trade -- irritated the British. So too did the official Qing position that the British and all other foreigners were vassals and barbarians. As China attempted to shut off the flow of opium, Britain and other trading countries resisted every measure. Conflict became inevitable.

What is the BEST way, if any, to revise Sentence (5)?
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

B) Through my participation in these activities and various community service projects, I have learned the importance of personal responsibility, teamwork, and commitment.

Explanation:

A sentence is a group of words that gives precise and complete meaning. It is concise, consisting of a main clause and probably one or more subordinate clauses. It could be in the form of a command, a statement, a request etc.

A main clause contains subject, object and predicate. This makes a main clause to give a complete meaning. But a subordinate clause contains a subject and a verb, and cannot give a complete meaning.

To revise the given sentence, it is best written as:

Through my participation in these activities and various community service projects, I have learned the importance of personal responsibility, teamwork, and commitment.
