Explanation:
How does Starr stand out at Garden Heights? How do her clothes show that she is
different? The hate you give
Answer:
Starr stands out from her neighborhood of African Americans by going to a mostly white school and adopting her identity to fit both communities. This is also reflected in her clothing that doesn’t fit her school identity enough (she takes off a hoodie before she enters) but also feels too unoriginal and unfitting for her neighborhood community (which we see when Kenya comments on her style at the party).
Explanation:
Starr is different from the rest of her neighborhood, Garden Heights, as she goes to the school where mainly white kids go and have to balance her two identities. She states that she has Starr version one and two – one is connected to her black roots and race, using slang and listening to rap, but version two is reserved for school, where she has to be polite, non-argumentative, and quits using slang, even when white children do. However, this makes her stand out even in her own community, as she doesn’t feel she fits enough in any of them. She feels almost as if she’s too white (despite being black) in Garden Heights.
In the party scene, we see Kenya critiquing her clothes as too “basic”. In the book, she also says her hairstyle (simple pony tale) feels basic compared to other girls’ curls, afro’s, and colors. That means that compared to other people at the party in Garden Heights, she is too unoriginal and mainstream. Kenya thinks she looks too relaxed and not feminine enough compared to other girls. The basic girl is usually the title in a pejorative sense to the girl liking unoriginal things all other (usually white) girls do, something that is uninteresting and lacking personality. The clothes Starr wears make her feel again not enough “here or there”, meaning not enough part of any community.
Answer:
In Garden Heights everyone see's Starr different because she goes to all whites school away from Garden Heights "Williamson." Her clothes she wears shows that even though she from the ghetto, she wears cloths the "rich" kids would wear with her brand new white Jordon's; that only whites can afford, unless you buy from a yard sale; then they would be real old looking, not band new.

a) his music flowing through the soft calipers
b) the pavement sparkling with sunlight
c) The music is loud yet so confidential

The excerpt form Billy Collins’s “Man Listening to Disc” which best reflects the euphoric effect the narrator experiences from listening to music on his headphones is the music is loud yet so confidential. The correct option is C.

A hush fell over the crowd as Samir approached the stage; he took a deep breath and tried to still the tremble in his hands.
He had rehearsed the speech for days, practicing late into the night when the house was quiet. The night before, he had been putting the finishing touches on the speech when his mother snuck up the stairs and stopped by his bedroom door with a mug of tea.
“It looks like you will need this. How’s it coming?” She tucked the long end of her sari under her leg and sat on his bed.
The familiar smell that reminded him of trips to India tickled his nose as he took the warm mug from her; he pressed it to his lips and took a long sip. “I don’t think they’re going to understand it.”
“It’s okay if they don’t understand it in their brains; it’s more important that they feel it here.” She pressed her hand to his heart.
“My friends don’t know what you went through to get here, and I want to get it just right because I need them to like the story.”
“Your friends will like you no matter what. Practice it one more time, and then you need to get some sleep.”
He stared at the words that he had painstakingly crafted to tell the story of how his parents had immigrated to the United States from India. Even though he hadn’t been born at the time, he could feel the heat on their skin as they’d packed up their belongings in Mumbai and boarded the plane for their new lives. After a twenty20-hour flight, they landed in the chill of Chicago; they hadn’t brought enough heavy clothes with them and had to buy sweatshirts from the airport store before stepping out into snow for the first time. His mother had danced around in the swirling white like a fascinated child, tasting flakes on her tongue before the cab whisked them away to their new lives.
He didn’t know how his parents got by in those early days of loneliness and isolation, when they didn’t know their neighbors and couldn’t find their favorite spices or flavors in the local grocery store. He imagined his homesick mother making pungent curry in the tiny kitchen of the apartment that was their first home—curry that she didn’t share with anyone except her husband because he was the only person she knew.
Eventually they had made a life there, and one year after they’d brought Samir home as a newborn, his younger sister Aarti was born, and they became a family of four. Each year that his parents lived in Chicago, they spoke about Mumbai like it was more of a memory. Samir grew up hearing stories of Mumbai and taking summer trips where he heard his parents speak a language that was clumsy on his own English-speaking tongue. He couldn’t imagine leaving his life and moving herefar away, but he knew that his parents had done it for him and his sister. “It was the ultimate sacrifice,” his mother had said, “but it was worth it.”
When he had finished rehearsing his speech for his mother, she dabbed her face, and he knew she was crying. He didn’t need to ask how the speech was—her expression told him that it was perfect.
Samir’s thoughts came back to the present moment as he cleared his throat and stepped onto the stage in front of the entire middle school—his friends and teachers were all here. He had often felt different from his peers and wanted so much for them to understand his story. But looking out into the crowd at all the different faces he realized that his peers must have their own stories to tell as well. Perhaps they wanted to be understood, too. He realized the only way to be understood is to share those stories. Perhaps if he shared his own story, others would share theirs, too. Perhaps it would help them to understand one another. He found his mom’s eyes in the middle of the front row. When she nodded, he began.
“I’m going to tell the story of how my parents became American citizens.”
How does the theme that it is important to understand our family stories develop in "The Speech"?
The theme develops through the author's depiction of how Samir realizes that Chicago must have been as strange to his parents as Mumbai was to him as a child.
The theme develops through the author's depiction of how Samir's recollection of his family's story before he gives his speech helps him to appreciate his family as well as the different experiences of others.
The theme develops through the author's depiction of how Samir changes from being nervous about giving a speech about his family to feeling confident after he recalls his family's story.
The theme develops through the author's depiction of how Samir changes from feeling different from his peers to feeling not so different after his mother tells him their family story.
Answer:
Theme...
Explanation:
I believe the theme, is that no matter what people think, you have nothing to fear or worry about, because everyone is different, and all have different back stories
The correct answer is "The theme develops through the author's depiction of how Samir's recollection of his family's story before he gives his speech helps him to appreciate his family as well as the different experiences of others."

Woodblock prints of the Edo period (1615-1868) characteristically featured sumo wrestlers, famous Kabuki actors, and geisha performers.

Closed Doors
by: Jane Kirby
I cry myself to sleep at night
Just wishing it would stop.
Maybe tomorrow it will cease.
Then again, maybe not.
You push me and you poke me.
You call me hurtful names.
To me, it's like a prison.
To you, it's fun and games.
Your heart is made of ice,
But it doesn't even deserve that.
Mine was once a rainbow,
But you have molded it to the darkest black.
I hate you; I hate everyone.
There is no one I can trust.
Are you proud of what you've done?
You've turned my soul into dust.
I wish there were a door I could open,
A simple path I could tread.
I don't want to be stuck here forever
In this endless spiral of dread.

Why might you compare a handsome gentleman to a book? Give three reasons.
please and thank you:)
Answer:
You could compare a handsome gentleman to a book because they both hold the characteristics of being:
Mysterious- you cannot judge books nor man by their cover. Underneath their "cover" they can be an array of things. Perhaps you wanted a Dystopian novel but you got some humor along with it. Perhaps you wanted a man with confidence, but you got charisma instead with a soft interior. They are similar.Well Mannered- Books are cultured, they hold knowledge and present information from an intreresting perspective. So do gentlemen, they are cultured and hold information.Effective at Communicating- Books are known for their words. They are able to communicate their message. So can men, if you are a gentleman you are supposed to be good with words- silver-tongued some may say.Anyway, I hope that helped even though it wasn't put together well. Have a good day!

Evaluating Visuals Quick Check
Using multimedia and visual displays can be extremely helpful when dealing with____ topics
(1 point)
-complex -multiple
-older -basic
Answer:
Using multimedia and visual displays can be extremely helpful when dealing with complex topics.
Explanation:
When we're dealing with complex topics, multimedia and visual displays can help us understand them with more ease. For example, if the topic in question includes statistics, charts and graphs would help us follow and understand this type of information with no problem.
When it comes to more basic (simpler) topics, these tools are not as necessary.
Whether topics are older or more recent is irrelevant to whether multimedia and visual displays are necessary.
When it comes to multiple topics, it's better to deal with topics one by one. Either way, whether multimedia and visual displays are necessary or not will depend on the complexity of the topics.

explain in a full paragraph how Langston Hughes' life experiences and outlook on life are demonstrated in his poem "I, Too"
Answer:
Early Life
James Mercer Langston Hughes was born on February 1, 1902, in Joplin, Missouri. His parents, James Hughes and Carrie Langston, separated soon after his birth, and his father moved to Mexico.
While Hughes’ mother moved around during his youth, Hughes was raised primarily by his maternal grandmother, Mary, until she died in his early teens. From that point, he went to live with his mother, and they moved to several cities before eventually settling in Cleveland, Ohio.
It was during this time that Hughes first began to write poetry, and one of his teachers introduced him to the poetry of Carl Sandburg and Walt Whitman, both of whom Hughes would later cite as primary influences.
Hughes was also a regular contributor to his school's literary magazine and frequently submitted to other poetry magazines, although they would ultimately reject his work?
