Lester Rennet pulled his own paper keyboard from his briefcase and unfolded it. "As you can see," he said, holding it up
to the tired piano at the front of the room, "your More with Les
paper keyboard is exactly to scale. It has black keys and white keys, just like a real piano-except, of course, that they make no sound when you touch them! The More with Les paper keyboard is the perfect practice instrument! No worrying about plunking out wrong notes in front of your friends! You can
practice anywhere. At the kitchen table! At Bingo Night!" Mr. Rennet pointed at me. "You can practice in the school lunchroom!"
scale \skāl\n
1. a set of points used to
measure distance 2. a
proportion of dimensions of an original and its representation
3. a device used to determine
weight 4. a graded system of ratings or ranks
Which definition best fits the way scale is used in paragraph 31?
Answer: Definition 2 : A
proportion of dimensions of an original and its representation
Explanation: This is because the paper piano was an exact copy of a regular piano, it just didn’t make any sound. So the words “original and it’s representation” from the definition is saying a copy of something.

You ordered a torch from an online shopping company but the packag
arrived torn and open. Write a letter saying you are returning the
package and that you expect a replacement.
Answer:
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am James Smith, a resident of Aurora, Illinois, have recently ordered a smartphone - Samsung Galaxy Note Edge, from your online shop. Unfortunately, when I unwrapped the phone, I found that the phone screen was broken and the stylus was missing. I am writing to notify you of the problem and to replace my product with a fresh one.
I placed the order on 15th May 2019 from my home and my invoice number is SAI-25478ASNE. I used my VISA credit card to pay for the order. I was looking forward to receiving the phone and start using it but when the phone finally arrived two days later, it was not in the condition it should have been. The main screen was smashed, and I could not find the stylus in the box. This is quite unexpected and as a regular customer, I am disappointed with your service.
Please inform me how can I replace the phone, as the warranty covers it, and get a fresh one as early as possible? Should I visit one of your retail shops?
Thanks in advance for your cooperation and I would like you to take the necessary measure so that it does not repeat in the future.
Yours faithfully,
James Smith

Excerpt from The Junior Detective
Marie Devers
When I find a question that reguires investigation,
pull out all the stops and start my thorough speculation
I believe in accuracy, and truth for all involved,
and always staying neutral til the case is all but solved.
Each occurrence that I witness is a clue to ponder ever-
till take the case and make it my own personal endeavor.
interview each villain, and I never give an inch
I notice all the ticks, and I explore each blink and finch
I ensure each alibi is honest; check each testimony,
and I find the real exception and expose it from the phony
What can the reader infer the junio detective deduces from a villain's ticks, blinks and tinches?
that the villain is lying to the junior detective
5
that he has solved the crime and found the culprit
that the crime being investigated never really happened
that there is no needence to be found for the time
Answer:
A). that the villain is lying to the junior detective
Explanation:
The readers can deduce that the detective cross-checks every statement or testimony given by villian and also notices his/her ticks and blinks in order to identify if he/she is lying ot trying to manipulate the case. It assists the readers in understanding how detective notices every action of the villian while interviewing to dig out the real truth and ensure that the real culprit is punished and no innocent suffers punishment. Thus, option A is the correct answer.
In the opening chapter of the text "their eyes were watching god" , Hurston sets up a contrast between men and women. She metaphorically says men are impractical because they chase after dreams that are unattainable; however, women are more practical as they make do with what they have. She wrote this in 1937. Do these descriptions apply to men and women in today's world? How do her observations compare and contrast to your observations and experiences?
Respond thoughtfully to this prompt with a claim, examples/observation from experience, and reasoning (CER--minimum of 6 sentences).
Answer:
Even in today's world men and women both have different levels of privilege. In the 1900s women were seen more and housewives and mother's than as people. Now let's go back farther in time when women were not allowed to read, go to school or even think for themselves, men were always able to dream bigger and go after those dreams because they could. While women had to think practical because they know they had way less of a chase of there dreams actually coming true.
