Answer: A

Explanation:

Defoe:   he spoke out against people who "barter baubles for the souls of men" and yet he invested heavily in the slave trade and maintained that it was "the most useful and most profitable trade . . . of any part of the general commerce of the nation."

Even though Defoe felt this way personally, I think that it is portrayed in the story that RC did not have to have people around him to be successful.  He not only was able to train people in how to care for the island and to survive, life seems to come and to to him.  He had the desire to keep on moving towards success.  I believe that him "owning" another person was not what  he wanted, but that he desired a friend.  He knew he could be successful with Friday.

What do you like and dislike about virtual learning? ​
Slav-nsk [51]
I like that I get to make my own schedule for it and that I am able to stay home and be safe but I really hate that it takes too long to finish the assignments and that it’s so draining and can be too much so quick. I also really miss my social life and my friends.

Read the excerpt from Act 2 of The Monsters Are Due on
dlinn [17]

Based on the stage directions, An alien does "Figure One"

Explanation:

Maple Street is full of children playing and adults chatting as the shadow falls, followed by a blanket and a burst of colour. Everybody knows, however they believe r]]] and easily restart their tasks. The inhabitants quickly learned that their electricity had gone off, impacting stoves, lawn mowers, vehicles and computers. They're meeting in the street to address the case. Pete Van Horn, pounded in his bib caps, volunteers to move across to Floral Lane, on the next lane, and see whether it's influenced as well. His friends, Steve Brand and Charlie Farnsworth, plan to go to town, but Tommy, a neighbourhood child, encourages them not to go.

Tommy has read the stories of an alien invasion that has created similar issues, so he claims the aliens don't want anybody out of the driveway. Tommy continues that in the plot, aliens are acting as a family that seems to be human, but are explorers, and the power loss that they create is intended to divide the community. The adults are incredulous, assuring him that the trigger is normal, probably the product of sunspots. Charlie wondered whether Pete Van Horn was able to make it to Floral Road.

Which of these lines from Shakespeare's "Sonnet 61" ends with an emjambment? (10 points)
devlian [24]

The correct answer is LINE 1 ("Is it thy will, thy image should keep open"). That's the line that ends with an enjambment.

In poetry, an enjambment refers to the incomplete syntax at the end of a line. Think of it as a sentence that is broken up in the middle, you can't get the meaning of it until you go down to the next line and get the full sentence. <u>You can recognize enjambment by a lack of punctuation at the end of the line and the tension this creates</u>. Once you move along and read the next line, that tension is resolved. The word or phrase that completes the syntax is known as<em> "rejet"</em>.

In this case we have the line "Is it thy will, thy image should keep open", in which the syntax feels incomplete as we don't know what should be kept open, and it doesn't have punctuation at the end so it's clearly an enjambment. The next line begins with "my heavy eyelids",<u> which completes the syntax and resolves the tension and therefore represents the rejet.</u>


Hope this helps!
