What Katie is worried about at the beginning of The Shakespeare Mix-Up is the speech she has to give tomorrow.
She is learning some facts about Shakespeare and is frightened about what her speech is going to look like the following day. She says to her mom that it is a very important speech and that her school career depends on it.
Alliteration is the repetition of the same sound at the beginning of a group of words.
Poets use alliteration to help create mood, rhythm or emphasis. It can also help with memorization. It's important to realize that it's all about sound, not spelling. For example, the letter c can have a hard or soft sound as in cereal and cat. These two words next to each other would not be considered alliteration because they are not the same sound. Examples of alliteration are:
My many monkeys met at the museum.
All the aardvarks already arrived.
In the passage from "A Doll's House", Nora is B) Glad that she finally has money to spend on gifts for the holidays.
After arriving, Nora is very eager to show her husband what she has bought for Christmas. Even though Helmer does not agree with such spending of money, she insists on him not to worry so much since he will earn a lot more money the next year. She excuses herself by explaining him that it is the first Christmas they did not need to economize. So, she is persuading him to relax about it.
The correct answer is A. As a common man.
Andrew Jackson's election inaugurated the so-called Era of the Rise of the Common Man, which lasted up to the Civil War.
During his campaign, Jackson was portrayed as a common man to show that someone's lineage did not ensure a place in office, but it was hard work and the candidate appeal to the voters and to portray himself as one of them. To achieve the presidency, he reinforced his humble origins and his struggle and success in adult life, even downplaying some of his achievements to make him look one of the people.
