Read the excerpt from "On Becoming an Inventor" by Dean Kamen. From this well-stocked basement came a whole new set of really ne

at projects. My younger brother, Mitch, and his friends, as well as some of my own friends, would come after school to help. At sixteen I was now a young entrepreneur, paying them for their help. I was surprised by the number of orders I was getting for more and more equipment. Soon I didn't have time to build and design new things. Giving over this work to other kids gave me more time to do what I wanted to do. This went on after school and all summer long. Which of the following is a signal word from this excerpt that shows an opinion? neat younger entrepreneur equipment

The correct answer is A: Neat.

 The words younger, entrepreneur and equipment in the text refer to <em>facts:</em> His brother is <em>younger</em> than him, <em>entrepreneur</em> is his new occupation and <em>equipment</em> was one of his projects. The word neat shows how he views the new set of projects, in his opinion they were good and clever: neat. So, the signal word that that shows an opinion is <em>neat.</em>

Why is the focus of the story on Beowulf as a hero rather than as a king? What is the difference?
Alchen [17]
A hero is a savior figure, he stands up to injustices of people through acts of bravery and courage. He stands up against all odds for a specific cause. A King merely rules through ascension to the throne. Beowulf not only rids the Danes of Grendel, but also his mother and the dragon.

serg [7]

Answer: Why Sally looks at her feet and walks fast to the house she "can't come out from"

Explanation:

In the Vignette, "What Sally Said", Sally speak of how she is abused by her father who believes that she might bring shame to the family like his sisters did when they ran away.

In order to guard against this he is very strict with her and hits her for any perceived wrongdoing and sometimes the beating is so bad she has to miss school. The is why she walks fast to the house so as to avoid provocating hom.

The one time she manages to get a sleepover, the father comes and pleads with her to come home. This shows that she doesn't get to leave the house often either.
