Two weeks before I started high school, my mother announced we would be moving . . . to an entirely different city, halfway acro

ss the country! Needless to say, I was horrified. I had already arranged for a way to avoid taking the bus carpooling with my friend Kwe and had signed up for all my classes and extracurricular activities. I was certain this new school wouldn't have nearly as many options, and I knew there was no way I was going to be able to set up a new carpool with only a few days to meet new people.
I would be moving away. I wondered, what would this new city be like; what would the people be like; what would people do with their time? I just couldn't fathom a life outside of the one I knew and so I began to worry about whether I would be able to fit in.
These were the thoughts that haunted me for the next fourteen days, as we packed all our possessions and loaded them into the moving truck; as we drove two thousand miles across the country; as we settled into our new apartment; and then, as I stood staring at the massive glass doors that led into the new school I would begin the next day. But as I stood there, hesitant to take another step into this unknown world, I realized something: things are never as bad as I think they will be.

Select the correct answer.
Which sentence is best to add to the end of paragraph 2 to better support the idea that the author is worried about fitting in?
A.
How could my mother pack up our house and talk excitedly about our supposed new adventure, when all I could think about was how miserable I felt and how much I would miss my friends?
B.
I was certain everything would be better in the new city, but at the same time I felt like I was leaving my old friends behind to pursue newer and much more interesting things.
C.
Would the new kids enjoy doing the same things as my friends back home, or would I spend months in some sort of solitary confinement pursuing my own interests?
D.
I was excited to learn about the new city we would be moving to, including what types of activities were popular there and whether the other kids enjoyed the same things as people from my hometown.

Answer : c

Explanation : if you re read the last sentence of paragraph 2, it talks about them fitting in “I just couldn’t fathom a life outside of the one I knew and so I began to worry abt whether I would be able to fit in” and then in the answer c, it talks about the worries about how the other kids might not have the same interests as them or they might enjoy different things. While answer a could be an option, if doesn’t really talk about fitting in as much as their friends and how much they will miss them. Answer s b and and d only talk about how exciting it is and how much they are anticipating the experience which doesn’t go with the second paragraph as much as answer C does.

how does the concept vocabulary contribute to the sense of finality suggested by the title of the story
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

- The words all share the theme of destruction.

Explanation:

Diction or the choice of words always plays a vital role in serving the author's purpose by conveying the specific intended meaning effectively to the readers.'

In 'The Fall of the House of Usher', <em>the use of the concept vocabulary puts up to the essence and feeling of 'finality' as proposed by the story's title as 'all the words share the common theme of destruction</em>.' This theme of knocking down is clearly reflected in the words 'fall of the house' of Usher which connotes 'desolation' or 'demolition.'
