2. read the following paragraph from "wanted: a town without a crazy." so to enter the town with the honor and glory befitting a loony, i had to start with my clothes. first, i went and had an extra long, bright red topcoat made. i smeared it with mud to make it look old and ripped holes in it left and right. then i went to the flea market and bought piles of worthless old money and bizarre medals. these i pinned here and there on the coat. around my waist i bound a thick belt and hung a frying pan to one end on a cord. the frying pan was to be my guitar. i hung things all around my belt: a ladle, wooden spoons, a potty, an old electric clock, a women's umbrella, a cast-iron stove lid. clanging and rattling all over, i boarded a bus. the people on the minibus broke into laughter, so i stood up, and using my frying pan as a guitar, sang all the songs i knew. laughing and clapping, they were so light-hearted it was indescribable. some threw oranges for me to eat, others gave me candy, and some money. not only that, the bus driver not only failed to ask me for fare but invited me to his home: ”where have you been all this time? come every day, the food and drinks are on me.” which of these sentences most effectively summarizes the main ideas in this paragraph? (1 point) a) the loony impressed the people on the bus by using a frying pan for a guitar and singing songs for them as entertainment. b) the people of the town were amused by their new loony's unusual appearance and seemed to take delight in his performance on the minibus. c) in order to become a loony, helmi purchased new clothes, ripped holes in them, and pinned bizarre medals in all over himself in random order. d) the loony began his career by purchasing a new coat and tying to it a belt hung with a ladle, wooden spoons, a potty, a clock, a women's umbrella, and an iron stove lid.

Which excerpt from the war of the worldseffectively reveals how the author relates the climax of the narrative through the narrator's thoughts? the war of the worldsall this had happened with such swiftness that i had stood motionless, dumbfounded and dazzled by the flashes of light. had that death swept through a full circle, it must inevitably have slain me in my surprise. but it passed and spared me, and left the night about me suddenly dark and unfamiliar.and then, with a renewed horror, i saw a round, black object bobbing up and down on the edge of the pit. it was the head of the shopman who had fallen in, but showing as a little black object against the hot western sun.at that time it was quite clear in my own mind that the thing had come from the planet mars, but i judged it improbable that it contained any living creature. i thought the unscrewing might be automatic.my mind ran fancifully on the possibilities of its containing manuscript, on the difficulties in translation that might arise, whether we should find coins and models in it, and so forth. yet it was a little too large for assurance on this idea. i felt an impatience to see it opened.

Take the following paragraph and write two separate paragraphs based on it. be sure to properly cite both parenthetically (don’t worry about a works cited) using this: (henderson). 1.) the first paragraph should contain a direct quote from the provided paragraph (the paragraph below). 2.) the second paragraph should contain a paraphrase of the provided information (the paragraph below). trees are in that they provide clean air. trees take in harmful gases from the air such as carbon dioxide, which is what people exhale from their lungs, and turn it into oxygen, which is what we inhale. they complete this process through photosynthesis, which requires carbon dioxide and then releases oxygen. without trees acting as nature's natural filter, the air would quickly become unbreathable to humans.
