Generally speaking, do you think grades accurately measure what a student knows in a class?
Answer: more like agree and disagree
I still assume that grades measures exactly what a student learns. It usually shows you whether you've got wrong or right when you finish an exam, and it explains why and how. If a teacher or student scores your paperwork and mistakenly labels you wrongly, grades will also be incorrect, even though you deserve a much better score. Plus grades are not that significant, actually. Students should concentrate on studying new subjects and real knowledge, since that is what a student really represents.

(here it is)
I ride my bike, it crackles on the old path. I squint. I am in fact only sixteen-i haven't gotten a car yet. My family isn't known to be too popular..with money. I petal, the rusty chains squeak. A gust of wind blows, my hair yanks away from my face, flying back into the wind. I like the wind....i always have. It's so powerful......it could strike you down with any blow. The leaves pitter patter onto the sidewalk, everything is silent except for the distant chatter of students. It was a beautiful day, birds were singing, and the Autumn colors of red and yellow mixed together to create a beautiful glow. Another gust of wind blew. I looked around, nothing was there to be seen. I looked up into the sky-it explained everything. The clouds were gray, and black.
"Ugh.." I muttered under my breath. Out of all days....today had to be when it started to rain. When I was biking home from school, on a wednesday. On the other days my parents would usually pick me up. I petaled faster. I huff, and puff, sweating. Wind blew again, rippling through my shirt and bloomers.
I felt a drop of rain speckle my skin. "NO no no no!" Will I make it in time? To get back home? Before the rain consumes me? Yes! I try to stay determined. I have ten more blocks to go...but...I hear thunder rumbling. It reminds me of my rumbling stomach when I'm hungry. I shudder. It doesn't help that my bike is metal. "Please don't thunder...please dont thunder!"
As if on cue, lightning struck. And then thunder sounded. I remember when we learned about that in fifth grade. Thunderstorms. Thunder always came after the lightning-because light traveled faster than sound. It eases my mind a bit-thinking about something else other than thunder. I stop, to run into a store. I will be soaked! The rain drops started to drop more frequently. Then I noticed something. My bloomers were stuck. Something was tugging at it, not letting it go. I grunt, and turn to see what it is but...the bloomer was caught on to the bike. I couldn't go. I pull on my pant leg to tug it free. "COME ON!" I scream, hearing the huge thunder and lightning clap, lighting everything up for a moment.
Tears start to form in my eyes. "Come on! Let go!" I yell. "HELP!" No one was there to hear my call. If I stay here, I could get really injured. My bike is metal, lightning is attracted to metal, and I'm touching the metal...! My heart pounds, and blood rours in my ears. My adrenaline is coursing through me.
"COME ON!" I screech. My voice is hoarse. Tears start to form, one sliding down my cheek. Holding on tight at my chin. "PLEASE!" Suddenly, the bloomer rips at the bottom. The bike falls. My heart stops throbbing. I run, the bike falls in a clash...and I hear something behind me. Lightening. I turned around in a fright....the bike was destroyed. Cracked. That would be me...done....gone. I clutch my arm. I start to cry even more. "T-thank you." ALthough I didn't know who I was saying it to, I meant it. I ran away, before anything else happened.

Explanation:
As per the given passage, every sentence is ending in a word with last letter 'd'. Therefore, the rhyme scheme can be completed by the word bad. Hence, option d is correct.
What is a rhyme scheme ?The arrangement of rhymes at the conclusion of each line in a poem or song is known as a rhyme scheme. Lines identified with the same letter all rhyme with one another, which is the standard method of referencing it.
For example, the conventional ABAB rhyme scheme, ABA BCB CDC DED EE for a terza rima, or ABABBCBC for a ballade, are all capitalized labels for this pattern. End rhymes are rhymes that appear in the final syllables of poems in poetry.
For the given passage, all the sentences are ending with the words with last letter d like. Thus, the end rhyme scheme is used here and the following word in the last sentence is bad.

Source 3: The History and Evolution of the Smartphone
(1992-2018)
by Owen Andrew
IBM and The World’s First Smartphone
In 1992, IBM revealed a revolutionary device that had more capabilities than its
preceding cell phones. This prototype smartphone was known as the Simon Personal
Communicator, but it wouldn’t see its way to consumers until 1994.
The device had many of the modern elements we attribute to current smartphones and
mobile devices. Highlights included:
• Touch screen
• Email
• Fax
• Notes and Calendar
• Apps and other widgets that would become widespread decades later
While it was a bold entry into the market, it wasn’t exactly the smoothest starting point
for a mobile device. You could say it was ahead of its time, and most consumers didn't
jump on board.
The Simon was advanced for it's time, but has nothing on the smartphones of today. It
only had a small monochrome LCD screen and a one-hour battery life. However, the
Simon created a great launching pad for others to innovate.
Then Came Blackberry
The first BlackBerry mobile device was the BlackBerry 5810. It had most of what you
think of when you hear "Blackberry":
• Calendar
• Music
• A full keyboard
• Advanced security
• Internet access
But you had to make calls through a headset.
BlackBerry primarily targeted business professionals. They kept releasing more and
more advanced devices, and became the market leader in smartphones until the iPhone
gained steam.
They seemed to lose sight of their target customer, though, and bottomed out with 0%
market share in 2017.
Apple Enters The Smartphone Race
Apple had already begun transforming how people use portable technology with the
iPod, and the stage was set for them to unveil their latest device in 2007.
The iPhone was one of the most advanced consumer smartphones the market had ever
seen. Priced at $499 for the 4gb unit and $599 for the 8gb model, users flocked to the
device - and to the AT&T carrier it was exclusive to.
Apple sold 1.4 million iPhones its first year on the market, and the device exploded to
11.6 million sold in 2008.
iPhone Sales 2007-2018
Apple already had the iPod Video, but one large drawback was its small, 4:3 aspect
ratio screen. The iPhone came with a wide LCD screen that was perfect for video.
It’s extended battery life allowed for 8 hours of talk time and 250 hours on standby. This
battery was a huge improvement over IBM’s Simon! It also made the iPhone a much
more consumer-friendly device, particularly for daily use.
Related: How Much Time Do People Spend on Their Mobile Phones in 2018?
The hardware was impressive, but the software - in the form of 3rd party apps -
expanded the iPhone’s capabilities and created a revolution for the industry.
Millions of apps arrived on the iPhone, adding to the device’s feature set daily. Before
long, the smartphone market exploded, and in 2015, 84% of Americans said they
couldn't go a day without their phone.
The Modern Smartphone of 2018
There’s a large difference in hardware from 2007 to 2018. In short, everything is more
advanced:
• More memory
• Devices are far faster and more powerful
• You can use multiple applications at the same time
• Cameras are HD
• Music and video streaming are easy, as well as online gaming
• The battery lasts for days instead of minutes or a couple hours
[The following graph from the PEW Research Center, titled “% of U.S. adults who own
the following devices,” shows how this advancement has translated into more
widespread use. The top line illustrates the percentage of cellphone owners, whereas
the bottom line illustrates the percentage of smartphone owners.]
The Future of Smartphones
The early smartphones like IBM’s Simon showed us a glimpse of what mobile devices
could be. In 2007, their potential was fully realized by Apple and the iPhone. Now, in
2018, they continue to become a staple of our everyday lives.
From replacements for our digital cameras and music players, to personal assistants
like Siri and voice search, we’ve ceased using our smartphones merely to communicate
with each other.
So what's next?
The advances of smartphones continue to grow constantly. It's hard to predict what will
come next, but it seems like a throwback to the flip phone (with folding touch screens) is
likely. Voice commands are also expected to continue growing.
Gone are the days where we had to sacrifice many of the capabilities we enjoy on our
laptops or desktops while on the go. The improvement of mobile technology has
allowed us more options in how we approach both our work and leisure activities.

The Magna Carta, Latin for "great charter," was written in 1215 and is a promise from King John of England to his subjects. It guaranteed that he would govern according to the law. The most prized clause of the Magna Carta granted that each citizen had rights that could not be sold or delayed. This clause allowed citizens a more direct path to justice, a path around the sometimes unjust barons. Prior to this, barons were intermediaries between the king and his subjects. The barons were responsible for enforcing and deciding laws. After the creation of the Magna Carta, this clause was adopted by many governments.

Reread this section from Sara’s rough draft about the history of the ERA.
If the ERA wants to become part of the Constitution, it will have to get past the opposition this time. Who fought against the ERA, and will they still try to stop it? One argument was that a constitutional amendment would take away protections that women already have. The National Committee to Defeat the Un-Equal Rights Amendment created a pamphlet that stated "the differences in treatment of men and women under state laws are for the benefit of the family, while others are advantageous to work women.”
Which sentence did Sara change MOST when creating her final draft? (Which sentence most needs revising?)
a. Who fought against the ERA, and will they still try to stop it?
b. One argument was that a constitutional amendment would take away protections that women already have.
c. If the ERA wants to become part of the Constitution, it will have to get past the opposition this time.
Answer:
If the ERA wants to become part of the Constitution, it will have to get past the opposition this time.
Explanation:
Treating the ERA as someone who can “want” something makes the report sound much less formal than it should. Sara rewrote that sentence to make it sound like academic discourse
"If the ERA wants to become part of the Constitution, it will have to get past the opposition this time", Sara changes most when creating her final draft. Thus, option 'C' is the correct option.
Why do sentences need revising in final draft?A common error made by students is to finish a draft of their paper and submit it. Not only are their writings frequently riddled with typos and other issues, but they also lack the advantage of revision—a crucial step in the writing process. When we edit our writing, we use the chance to take a step back and rethink it.
We consider the objectives of the article and if we have succeeded in achieving these objectives. We make sure that our arguments are strong and well-stated. And we make sure that language and style mistakes don't take away from our work or give the impression that the paper was written in a hurry.

Write a letter to Trevor Noah. Describe how you felt when you read about his childhood, and ask him five questions about parts of the text you want to hear more about.
Dear Trevor Noah.
I decided to write this letter after reading his account of his birth and youth. I was impressed with his story and his overcoming, which gave me a lot of inspiration in my own life and gave me a certain willpower not only to improve my life, but also to have a better relationship with my mother . I confess that I somewhat envy the relationship you have with yours.
Speaking of your mother, I was impressed with her every decision and courage and I would like to know, how did she deal with the fact of having a child raised between her and a white man, since that was forbidden?
In addition, I have other questions. I wonder if you have any kind of relationship with your paternal family? Do you have your father's nationality and citizenship? Did you suffer any punishment in your mother's country for being a mixed-race child? Do you think that if you had been raised with your father, your life would be different?
I know there are a lot of questions, but I found your story very intriguing and interesting and I try that you don't mind my questioning.

John changes his diction (word choice) on page 144 of brave new world ; the shift is indicated with italics. What and who has inspired him to speak in this way?
Answer:
Shakespeare's works and Shakespeare himself inspire John to speak differently.
Explanation:
John is strongly influenced by Shakespeare, to the point of allowing his works to interfere with his personality, the way he acts and the way he sees the world. Everything for him is done under the way and vision that he believes Shakespeare would have, which makes him realize elements that are not correct and that are harmful, in addition to giving him a full critical view of the World State. Even the completion of John's narrative is influenced by Shakespeare.

Students attending schools with mandatory uniform policies experience less pressure than do students who must choose their wardrobes. This is because school uniforms allow students and their parents to save money and time. The financial investment in uniforms at the beginning of the school year is far more economical than the purchase of an entire wardrobe of designer clothes and trendy styles. Students who do not have to deliberate what to wear each morning are able to invest their time in more productive ways, such as studying for tests or finishing homework. Uniforms may stifle students’ self-expression, but there are many other ways to reveal one’s individuality at school.

Answer:
D. The inclusion of reputable sources and specific facts
Explanation:
Before reading the passage, read all the available answers. As you read, look for evidence that would support each of these answers. Clearly this paragraph is giving the best reasons to go to a school uniform policy rather than to not have one at all. So, list all of the reason why the policy would be better since this is the author's perspective. Then read through the answers again, eliminating the ones that could not possibly be the answer. There is nothing mentioned in the paragraph that would support A. The same can be said for B. Since there is little evidence to support C, D would be the best answer.

1. ways that Achebe creates a complex yet believable character in Ikemefuna.
2. Discuss Ikemefuna's influence on the community. Be sure to discuss how specific characters feel about that influence
Explanation:
1. Chinua Achebe, the writer of the award-winning novel, "Things fall Apart" included in the story a complex character named Ikemefuna. Ikemefuna's death began a series of things falling apart.
For example, in the story, we are told that Okonkwo despite not been Ikemefuna's dad was often called father by him. However, Okonkwo didn't hesitate to kill the boy when requested by the village elders even after been warned by Ogbuefi Ezeudu not to do so. A short while later Ezeudu died, on the day of his elaborate funeral, Okonkwo who was part of the men firing their guns accidentally shot his gun and killed Ogbuefi Ezeudu’s sixteen-year-old son [ Indeed, Ikemefuna's death began a series of things falling apart].
2. The community is not well pleased with the boy's presence in the community. For example, it was even those with authority in the community; the village elders that communicated their verdict on Ikemefuna, saying he deserves to be killed as revealed to them by the "Oracle".
