can anyone with this John is a manager of a local sports store. He didn’t like it when his boss told him recently that he needs to pay more attention to work in his outlet. He was told that he needs to concentrate on the important things and leave the rest to others. “I don’t know what he expects,” John thought. “I am not slack, and I always work overtime. I have more work to do than one person can get done.” He got on with his work for the day.
At 8.50am, John realised that Sarah and Joe had not arrived for their shift, which had an 8.30am start. He noticed that there was no one attending to the queue at the counter. “Better get out there myself,” he thought. His assistant manager, Paula, was out back. Paula came out to the counter after John had served three customers. He didn’t want to make a big deal of it in front of customers and figured that she was there now.
John was starting to feel quite stressed and had a headache coming on, so he went into the lunch room for a water. He realised that he had a report due that he needed to submit by close of business that day. Paula could do it, but he didn’t think that she should see the revenue figures. If everyone knew what was going on, he may lose his sense of control over things.
After John got the report done, he started on the work he loves, which is reorganising stock and catching up with some of the suppliers for coffee. He realised that he hadn’t checked up on Sarah and Joe, so he tried to find out what had happened. Sarah was there at work now, but Joe was not. He needed to find someone to takes Joe’s place. An hour later after several phone calls, he decided to ring head office to see whether they had a solution for staff. He never had time to train staff and often ended up doing things himself because it was faster. The staff were always referring customer concerns to him to deal with, especially if the customers were not happy about something. He found it easier just to stay on the counter all day and work there. It was a really busy day with the start of the sales season.
Just after lunch, with another report to work on for head office, John had to attend another meeting. He knew that Paula had attended these meetings when she covered for him when he was on leave and that she liked doing it, but he was afraid that if he didn’t go himself, he would be out of the loop.
That day, four customers had missed out on items that they wanted because the store had run out of stock. An urgent stock report was required so that the store didn’t lose revenue over the upcoming weekend because the stock wasn’t in store. They had lost revenue to their competitor in the next street on several occasions in the last two months. John’s last assistant manager is now managing the store over there, and he keeps John updated on their business when they occasionally catch up. Paula has had a lot of experience using this stock database. John hates using the system because he doesn’t understand it very well. John thought it best to do it himself though as it is part of his job. He then had to phone the report into head office as part of his weekly requirements. This normally took about half an hour to get phoned in.
After the meeting, John systematically signed a stack of routine forms that have been piling up on his desk.
Two members of the team are due to go on leave in a week for two weeks, so he is starting to get worried about how things are going to get done.
John’s boss is putting pressure on him to provide the results of the annual staff appraisal forms to him. He has conducted half of the meetings. He just wishes that the staff could be more proactive in monitoring their own performance.
John has realised that things need to change at work, but he is unsure what to do. He has been thinking about asking his boss for some advice because he constantly feels like he is chasing his tail and not getting things done that he needs to.
1. What are the key issues for John in terms of his time management practices?

Answers

Answer 1

Time management is a crucial part of our everyday life. If we fail to manage our time properly then things can turn out real bad just like it’s the case with John.

From the excerpt we can say that John is very much committed towards his work and he’s always punctual. Despite all these he still face issues in managing time. You wonder how? The reason lies in this statement, ‘He just wishes that the staff could be more proactive in monitoring their own performance.’ Since the beginning of the passage we notice that John not only does his part of work, but he’s also engaged in doing his colleagues work as well; thus making it difficult for him to manage time.

Even during the end of the passage we find that John is thinking to talk to his boss about the matter, but he fails to do so. Again, his lack of guts to speak up puts him in trouble.

A) It does not matter

B) End of the story

C) Beginning of the story

D) Middle of the story

Answers

Late beginning early middle
D) Middle of the story


During the introduction of the novel, the characters and plot are still being developed. The reader is not ready to know the conflict, as he/she has no background information to help him/her understand the impact of said conflict.

This being said, it cannot be the end of the story, as the novel must have a conflict to be written off of. To keep the readers engaged, the must know the conflict, and learn more about it throughout the story.

After eliminating those two options, we know it must be the middle of the story. It gives the readers enough time to understand what will happen in the novel, while still introducing the conflict early enough for the readers to continue reading the book.

Read the excerpt from "The Fall of the House of Usher."

Will she not be here anon? Is she not hurrying to upbraid me for my haste? Have I not heard her footstep on the stair? Do I not distinguish that heavy and horrible beating of her heart?
What is the effect of parallelism in this excerpt?

1. It emphasizes Usher’s misunderstanding.
2. It emphasizes Usher’s love for his sister.
3. It emphasizes Usher’s psychological fixation.
4. It emphasizes Usher’s melancholy nature.

Answers

Answer:

The effect of parallelism in this excerpt is:

3. It emphasizes Usher's psychological fixation.

Explanation:

"The Fall of the House of Usher" is a horror short story by Edgar Allan Poe. The narrator is summoned by his friend to keep him company. Usher, the friend, lives in a strangely gloomy house. In addition, his sister has an uncommon disease which makes her catatonic, looking dead when she is in fact alive. As the narrator tries everything he can to cheer his friend up, he realizes Usher has a fixation that is making him ill, bordering on crazy. Especially after the sister supposedly dies and they place her in the tombs under the house, Usher keeps on hearing noises around the house. He believes those noises come from his sister. He thinks they've buried her alive and she is now trying to escape. Such thought tortures him constantly, repeatedly, as the parallelism shows:

Will she not be here anon? Is she not hurrying to upbraid me for my haste? Have I not heard her footstep on the stair? Do I not distinguish that heavy and horrible beating of her heart?

Choose the sentence that contains a relative pronoun. A. Someone is coming down the road. B. Ms. Jones, whom you have met, is my teacher. C. Those are not my books. D. Please, put your gym bag in your locker.

Answers

Answer:

B). Ms. Jones, whom you have met, is my teacher.

Explanation:

Relative pronouns are demonstrated as the pronouns that are employed either to link a clause or phrase to the noun or to add description about the noun/subject in the sentence. These pronouns acts as a subject that are dependent to specify its meaning.

As per the question, option B displays the sentence that involves a relative pronoun 'whom' that opens/introduces(act as a conjunction) the relative clause 'whom...teacher'(dependent to accomplish its meaning) that functions to modify the noun 'Ms. Jones'. Thus, option B is the correct answer.

With the rise of Islam, Egypt became the world's great sugar laboratory. The kind of sugar easiest to produce from cane is dark—the color comes from molasses, which also makes that form of sugar spicy and even bitter. What we call molasses is just a natural part of the first grinding of sugar cane into syrup. Sugar refiners drain out the dark molasses to use by itself and are left with relatively white sugar. The noble and wealthy, who could afford sugar, wanted it to be as pure, sweet, and white as possible. The Egyptians figured out how to meet that need.

What evidence from the passage best supports the inference that white sugar was rarer and more valuable than brown sugar? Select two options.

"Egypt became the world's great sugar laboratory"
"The kind of sugar easiest to produce from cane is dark"
"drain out the dark molasses to use by itself"
"wanted it to be as pure, sweet, and white as possible"
"Egyptians figured out how to meet that need"

Answers

Answer:

Evidences from the passage which best supports the inference that white sugar was rarer and more valuable than brown sugar are:

"The kind of sugar easiest to produce from cane is dark"

"wanted it to be as pure, sweet, and white as possible"

The first sentence shows that it was easier to produce dark sugar. Which will mean that this kind of sugar could be found in abundance whereas white sugar was not easy to produce and hence was rarer and more valuable.

The second evidence shows the demand of the wealthy people for white sugar. This proves that the sugar was rarer and more valuable.

Answer:

Options B and C are correct.

Explanation:

The passage describes how sugar was important for the Egyptians while the questions asks about the value of white sugar over brown sugar.

Option B is correct since it means that dark sugar might not have been appreciated due to the amount of it and how easy it was to produce it.

On the other hand, option C points out that rich people liked white sugar as pure, sweet, and of course, white as possible, something that increased its value.

Which of the following statements about prescriptive and descriptive grammar is correct?

Answers

Answer:

The question is not complete because it doesn't include options.

There are two approaches to language; descriptive and prescriptive grammar.

Prescriptive grammar explains or prescribes how the language should be used. For example “Don’t split infinitives" is a prescriptive rule.  

Descriptive grammar shows or describes how a language is used by people, not saying how it should be used.  

According to prescriptive grammar, a sentence is grammatical only if the native speaker uses it in his or her speaking. However, descriptive grammar explains how a sentence is produced through mental processes.  

Final answer:

Descriptive grammar focuses on how language is actually used, accommodating for dialects and natural language evolution, while prescriptive grammar provides rules on standard language usage, particularly for formal contexts.

Explanation:

The statements that represent a descriptive view of language are the ones that describe language as it is actually used by native speakers, without making judgments about whether a particular usage is right or wrong. Descriptive grammar recognizes dialect variation and seeks to understand the internal logic of language as it naturally evolves. In contrast, prescriptive grammar provides guidelines on how the language should be used, especially in formal or professional settings, and often in alignment with a standard dialect.

An example of a descriptive statement would be acknowledging that while some features of English grammar are logical, others are not and are not trying to be. This acknowledges that language has its own internal logic that does not always align neatly with prescriptive rules. On the other hand, prescriptive statements tend to enforce specific language rules, such as using a certain pronoun in a subject position, and offer proscriptions on language use, such as avoiding the pronoun 'me' as a subject.

In summary, descriptive grammar analyzes and records the language as it is spoken in real life, recognizing and capturing its complexities and variations. Prescriptive grammar gives language learners a set of rules to follow to ensure clarity and conformity with a language standard, particularly useful in educational and formal contexts.

What information processing bias does this reflect?
a. self-serving bias
c. empathy bias
b. confirmation bias
d. selective attention

Answers

Answer:

A). Self-serving bias.

Explanation:

Information processing biases are described as the biases that occurs due to illogically or irrationally processing information. Self-serving bias is described as the investigating information and pursuing it to promote their self-interest that leads to a bias as it may encourage unethical or irrational decisions that could be unfavorable for the others.

In the given situation, Adam's thought process reflects a 'self-serving bias' as he processes the information in his 'self-interest' as he thinks 'his marriage failed because he and his wife were poorly matched'. This statement could be irrational as it would affect his ex-wife emotions because he doesn't offer a logical or ethical reason for breaking his alliance. Thus, option A 'self-serving bias' is the answer.

Answers

Answer:

Macbeth tells himself that now Malcolm stands between him and the throne.

Explanation:

"We will establish our estate upon

Our eldest, Malcolm, whom we name hereafter

The Prince of Cumberland; which honour must

Not unaccompanied invest him only"

Macbeth apparently declares his joy, but when he is at some distance, he talks to himself that he either has to fall down by Malcolm or overleap him in order to become king himself.

"[Aside] The Prince of Cumberland! that is a step

On which I must fall down, or else o'erleap,

For in my way it lies. Stars, hide your fires;

Let not light see my black and deep desires"

Answers

Answer:

Sensory details

Explanation:

Sensory details include the five senses of taste, touch, smell, sight, and hearing. Five senses are used by the writer to engage the readers and arouse his interest. By using sensory details, the writer makes it possible for the reader to personally experience what the writer is conveying.

The writer is using sensory details when appealing to the senses of sight, taste, smell, hearing, and touch. Sensory details create vivid imagery and make the writing more engaging. They help readers relate to the description by appealing to their personal senses.

When a writer uses details that appeal to the senses of sight, taste, smell, hearing, and touch, the writer is using sensory details. Sensory details are important in descriptive writing as they help create vivid imagery and engage the reader by relating to their personal experiences. For instance, describing the 'crisp autumn leaves crackling underfoot' engages the sense of sound and touch, making the scene more immersive.

As the chief executive of our nation, I respectfully suggest that you unwittingly crush the spirit of freedom in Negroes by constantly urging forbearance and give hope to those pro-segregation leaders like Governor Faubus who would take from us even those freedoms we now enjoy. Your own experience with Governor Faubus is proof enough that forbearance and not eventual integration is the goal the pro-segregation leaders seek. To which specific historic event is Jackie Robinson referring to in the letter

Answers

Jackie Robinson is referring to the events surrounding the desegregation of Little Rock Central High School in Arkansas in 1957.

Governor Orval Faubus notoriously resisted the integration of the school, leading to a standoff between state and federal authorities. This event highlighted the ongoing struggle for civil rights and the resistance to desegregation in the United States. Robinson's letter addressed President Dwight D. Eisenhower, urging him to take stronger action against segregation and to support the civil rights movement.

In 1957, following the Supreme Court's ruling in Brown v. Board of Education that declared segregation in public schools unconstitutional, the state of Arkansas resisted desegregation efforts. Governor Orval Faubus ordered the Arkansas National Guard to prevent nine African American students from entering Little Rock Central High School, effectively blocking their integration.

Jackie Robinson, a prominent figure in the civil rights movement and the first African American to play in Major League Baseball, wrote a letter to President Dwight D. Eisenhower, expressing his concerns about the situation. In the letter, Robinson criticizes Eisenhower for urging "forbearance" and not taking more decisive action to support integration. He accuses the president of inadvertently empowering pro-segregation leaders like Governor Faubus by not actively promoting civil rights and desegregation.

Robinson's letter underscores the frustration felt by many African Americans at the slow progress of civil rights and the resistance they faced from political leaders. The events at Little Rock Central High School became a pivotal moment in the civil rights movement, highlighting the need for federal intervention to enforce desegregation and protect the rights of African American students. Robinson's letter serves as a reminder of the ongoing struggle for equality and justice in the United States.

Which statements describe the lives of common citizens and enslaved people in Roman society? Drag each description into the correct box.

Answers

Answer:

- Common Citizens:

• Lived in cramped apartments in shabby buildings in Rome.

• Rented land from wealthy landowners.

- Enslaved People :

• Servants to wealthy Romans

• Worked dangerous jobs in mines

Explanation:

During the Roman Empire, the wealthy people possessed an extravagant and luxurious lifestyle while the common people were in contrast to them as their houses were shabby and squalid with a constant fear of being collapsed any moment. For them such a luxurious life was mere a dream as they didn't even possess a piece of land and rented land from wealthy owners to earn their livelihood.

As far as the slaves were concerned during the roman era, they were the servants to the wealthy and rich Romans and worked in order to add grace(according to them) to their luxury and comfort. They had to work in hazardous working conditions in mines to keep their owners(who possessed them as objects) content and ensure their and their family's survival.

‘Scarcity’ is the shortage or insufficiency or lack of anything. We known that scarcity almost always affect people of low income growth, but is that the case with the most wealthy person as well? The answer is most certainly yes.

Wants of a person is always greater in number. The relationship between human want and the availability of those resources is what makes the difference. So whether rich or poor, there’s no person who is not touched by scarcity.

This idea reflects the perceived self-efficacy in the moral dimension, wherein individuals believe in their ability to uphold and act according to moral standards in challenging situations.

Moral courage, on the other hand, relates to taking action that is morally right despite potential risks, and is crucial for facing ethical challenges directly. Moral ownership involves accepting responsibility for ethical outcomes, while moral justification is the process of rationalizing one's behavior as moral under given circumstances.
