Which statement best describes king Lepold's ideas for the resources in the Congo?
Answer:
He saw the superiority of the African continent and a chance for Belgium to dominate world trade.
Explanation:
The Congo became part of Belgium's attempt to be a dominant country in Europe, and luckily, in the world. Acquired the Congo in 1884, Leopold had amassed a huge personal fortune from the exploitation of Congo's natural resources - at first thanks to the export of ivory, but it did not yield as much as expected. As global demand for rubber exploded, attention turned to the labor-intensive gathering of rubber from plant sap. This process of exploration was followed by violent practices with the natives, with extensive use of beatings, killings, and mutilations when production quotas were not

(a) What type of poem is "Elliptical"? Explain. (b) In what ways does the choice of form affect how the reader experiences the poem? (c) Rewrite the poem, adding line breaks that make sense to you. Compare with the original. What is lost and what is gained by the poet's choice of form?

"Elliptical" is a prose poem.

Compare and contrast:
The poet's choice of form has pros and cons. On the one hand, because none of the sentences in the poem are completed, the paragraph-like structure of the poem could make it easy for the reader to get lost or bored. However, this may still have been a valid artistic choice. After all, the poem is about the "elliptical" of excuses for racism, so maybe it makes sense to have the reader get tired, and associate that weariness with those excuses. In contrast, making the poem have lines and stanzas, rather than a paragraph structure, makes the reader more likely to try to interpret the individual significance of each line, rather than look at what the lines all mean together.

I know the passage is VERY long!! Sorry.
One of the French experts, Sylvestre de Sacy, started with the proper names in the Greek passage and tried to find their equivalents in the demotic version. He believed that, after he’d singled out the names, he would be able to identify the demotic letters in each of them. With these letters in hand, he could then go on to translate other names and words in the demotic passage.
But the process proved to be much more difficult than de Sacy had anticipated. He succeeded in isolating the groups of demotic letters for the names of Ptolemy and Alexander, but found it impossible to identify the individual letters in the names. Eventually he gave up, saying, “The problem is too complicated, scientifically insoluble.”
A pupil of de Sacy’s, the Swedish diplomat Johan Akerblad, made better progress. Akerblad managed to locate in the demotic passage all the proper names that occurred in the Greek. From them he constructed a “demotic alphabet” of twenty-nine letters, almost half of which later proved to be correct.

Read the passage from "By the Waters of Babylon.”
Then I saw their fate come upon them and that was terrible past speech. It came upon them as they walked the streets of their city. I have been in the fights with the Forest People—I have seen men die. But this was not like that. When gods war with gods, they use weapons we do not know. It was fire falling out of the sky and a mist that poisoned. It was the time of the Great Burning and the Destruction. They ran about like ants in the streets of their city—poor gods, poor gods! Then the towers began to fall. A few escaped—yes, a few. The legends tell it. But, even after the city had become a Dead Place, for many years the poison was still in the ground. I saw it happen, I saw the last of them die. It was darkness over the broken city and I wept.

Read the excerpt from “Tools of the Spymaster."
The numbers that Major Tallmadge assigned to members of the Culper Ring were from a secret writing system he invented. He substituted digits for words that would be used in messages. "Long Island," for example, was 728, "arms" was 7, and "city" was 88. There was a number for each month, such as 341 for "January." He made four copies of his codes. He kept one and gave the others to Woodhull, Townsend, and General Washington. For words that did not have a number code, Tallmadge gave his agents a cipher. In a cipher, each letter in a message is replaced by another letter or a number.
Which statement is best supported by text evidence from the excerpt?
All members of the Culper Ring received a copy of Tallmadge’s code.
A cipher was a common instrument used during the American Revolution.
Words that did not have a number code could not be used in secret messages.
General Washington could read messages written in Tallmadge’s code.
Answer:
Words that did not have a number code could not be used in secret messages.
Answer:
its A. All members of the Culper Ring received a copy of Tallmadge’s code.

One or more hyphens are used correctly in all of these sentences except which one?
Answer:
C. Helen told Fred that she would love him ever-more.
Explanation:
The hyphen is a punctuation mark that is used to separate syllables of a single word and also join words that are to be taken as "one meaning or idea". When it is used in such a way, then the word is called or referred to as "a hyphenated" word.
Among the given options, the sentence that requires no use of the hyphen is the third sentence. Here, "ever-more" doesn't need to be joined nor are they a single word.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
