I’ll just do the intro paragraph:
Treasures are something of great value whether friendship, riches, or a hidden area under an “X” on a map. They often come in many shapes, sizes, and forms. Some treasures are more valuable to some then others. Things like gold, rubies, and riches seem to be the only thought that comes to mind when people think about treasure, they often forget the greatest treasure of all, friendship. Since most people seem to focus on the treasure that benefits them materially instead of the treasure of feeling happy inside its clear, it is important to value friendship.
<span>D is the correct answer. Moore expressed a wish that poets would create “imaginary gardens with real toads in them” in this poem, showing her opinion against the strict traditions and elitism of poetry as a genre.</span>
This question is incomplete because the paragraph is missing; here is the missing part of the question:
"A Genetics of Justice”
In December 1960, four months after our arrival, Time magazine reported the murder of the three Mirabal sisters, who along with their husbands had started the national underground Dominican Republic. My parents confiscated the magazine. To our many questions about what was going on, my mother always had the ready answer, "En boca cerrada no entran moscas.” No flies fly into a closed mouth. Later, I found out that this very saying had been scratched on the lintel of the entrance of the SIM's torture center at La Cuarenta.
Answer: 2. The author's parents were afraid to discuss murders or event in the Dominican Republic
Explanation:
In the excerpt from "A genetics to Justice," the narrator explains her parents avoided speaking about the situation in the Dominican Republic; this can be seen in "I knew very little about what was actually going on in the Dominican Republic". Additionally, the general attitude of her parents including the fact they spoke "in hushed voices" about the topic, and " confiscated the magazine" about the murders of some Dominicans show the parents are afraid to discuss any situation to this country. This idea is also explained in "No flies fly into a closed mouth", which shows the parents are afraid something bad will happen to them if they speak about this topic. Thus, the central idea is expressed by option 2.
Answer:
Fear of reality
Explanation:
This quote is trying to pass across a message that prove hate books now because of fear of knowledge which would lead to the downfall of mankind. It states that people would rather thrive in illusion fantasy by likening it to flowers living on flowers instead knowing the underlying factor behind the existence of the flower. People choosing to see the world the way they want it instead of seeing it the way it is.
