From an early age, Ernest Shackleton was drawn to the sea. (1)While he loved to read because it fueled his appetite for adventur

e, he was often bored in school. His father, a doctor, wanted Ernest to pursue medicine, but he accepted the boy’s restless nature and allowed him to join a southbound ship’s crew when he was sixteen. (2)His first experience at sea in 1890 was a difficult one, but Shackleton wasn’t discouraged. In fact, he dreamed of going even farther south to mysterious Antarctica. (3)By age twenty-four, Shackleton had qualified to be a ship’s commander. In 1899, he learned that the Royal Geographical Society was organizing an expedition to the Antarctic.

This would be sentence 4, since there is no relevant statement to the dog in the passage. You don't need to know that sentence. D.

In at least 150 words, discuss the representations of femininity in "Bernice Bobs Her Hair."
Delvig [45]

“Bernice Bobs Her Hair” is largely a discussion of the value of femininity, and of what society expects of a young woman in 1920s America. Nearly every character in this story, major or minor, holds some opinion on the matter—and both Bernice and Marjorie evaluate themselves against the traditional feminine standard, to different conclusions. Fitzgerald uses this very difference to underscore the struggle that teenage girls faced in 1920: that is, being forced to define themselves as a demographic while lacking the maturity to do so in a healthy way. The older model of femininity, represented by Marjorie’s mother, Mrs. Harvey, values women who are delicate, quiet, and marriage-minded. By the 1920s, this approach had become useless in preparing young women for the world. However, the new model that Marjorie represents—aiming to shock, amuse, and allure as many boys as possible—tends to reward only personalities like hers, and offers only shallow rewards at that. Bernice can find no comfortable place between these two extremes, and both sides threaten unpleasant consequences if she fails to conform. Ultimately, Fitzgerald doesn’t propose a solution to this problem, but shows, in Bernice, the impossibility of perfectly conforming to society’s standards of femininity.
