Eduardo crept along the side of the house — he didn't want his mother to see him. Her reaction to being startled was one of the

funniest he had ever seen. He tried to startle her at least once a week because it provided a nice laugh for both of them. Tonight, his mother was hanging laundry on the clothesline in the backyard, and the dangling clothes and linens provided yet another means of camouflage.
He crept closer, then popped out from behind a bedsheet and screamed, "Boo!"

As Eduardo's mother's arms flailed in the air, she let out a whoop and ran toward the house.

Eduardo collapsed on the ground in hysterics. He laughed so hard, tears started rolling down his cheeks. His mother walked back over to her son with a smirk on her face.

"Just watch out! You're next!"
Which statement best summarizes the passage?
A. Eduardo's mother is scared by her son's outburst, and even though she runs away, she comes back smiling.
B. Eduardo's action is inconsiderate because his mother is completely caught off guard, and it seems as though he doesn't care about how she reacts.
C. Eduardo carefully camouflages himself in order to sneak up on his mother.
D. Eduardo sneaks up on his mother while she's hanging laundry and scares her. She runs away in fright but returns with a good-natured threat.

Answer:

D. Eduardo sneaks up on his mother while she's hanging laundry and scares her. She runs away in fright but returns with a good-natured threat.

Explanation:

This summary accurately describes what happens in the passage. His mother is obviously startled and runs away, but comes back to her son with a smirk on her face and a witty, good-natured threat to keep himon his toes. It does not specifically state that she was smiling.

Student drivers are required to keep a log of their supervised driving hours. However, not all students are diligent in their record-keeping.

The transition that should be used to combine these sentences is the following one: however. This adverb is used to introduce a statement that contrasts with or appears to contradict something that has been previously said.  In this case, you are saying that student drivers should keep a written record of their supervised driving hours yet you are also stating that not all of them do it thoroughly and well.

Can anyone rewrite the poem "Bright star" by John Keats in your own words? I'm fr stressing over this. Stupid work. Anyways can
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

Bright star, would I were faithful as thou artwork—

        Not in lone magnificent drape upward the night

And observe, with everlasting lids alone,

        Like creation's patient, restless Solitary,

The operating waters at their priestly task

        Of purity cleansing round earth's human geography,

Or look upon the new descending veil

        Of snow upon the summit and the upland—

No—now still loyal, still unvarying,

        Pillow'd upon my fair love's mellow chest,

To perceive for eternally its pulpy descend and expand,

        Arouse continually in a pure disruption,

Motionless, unmoving to catch her kind-captured breath,

And so exist at all—or instead keel over to extinguish
