pls help 15 points Which of the following quotes from The First Men in the Moon implies a theme of discovery?

“These moon people behaved exactly as a human crowd might have done in similar circumstances:”
“On these balanced a little body, throbbing with the pulsations of his heart. He had long, soft, many-jointed arms ending in a tentacled grip, and his neck was many-jointed in the usual way, but exceptionally short and thick.”
“I must confess that all this multitude made me feel extremely shabby and unworthy. I was unshaven and unkempt; I had brought no razor; ”
“In a little while the profound blackness had made his eyes so sensitive that he began to see more and more of the things about him, and at last the vague took shape.”

Answer:

At first they descended in silence--save for the twitterings of the Selenites--and then into a stir of windy movement. In a little whilethe profound blackness had made his eyes so sensitive that he began to see more and more of the things about him, and at last thevague took shape."Conceive an enormous cylindrical space," says Cavor, in his seventh message, "a quarter of a mile across, perhaps; very dimly lit atfirst and then brighter, with big platforms twisting down its sides in a spiral that vanishes at last below in a blue profundity; and liteven more brightly--one could not tell how or why. Think of the well of the very largest spiral staircase or lift-shaft that you haveever looked down, and magnify that by a hundred. Imagine it at twilight seen through blue glass. Imagine yourself looking down that;only imagine also that you feel extraordinarily light, and have got rid of any giddy feeling you might have on earth, and you will havethe first conditions of my impression. Round this enormous shaft imagine a broad gallery running in a much steeper spiral than wouldbe credible on earth, and forming a steep road protected from the gulf only by a little parapet that vanishes at last in perspective acouple of miles below."Looking up, I saw the very fellow of the downward vision; it had, of course, the effect of looking into a very steep cone. A wind wasblowing down the shaft, and far above I fancy I heard, growing fainter and fainter, the bellowing of the mooncalves that were beingdriven down again from their evening pasturage on the exterior. And up and down the spiral galleries were scattered numerous moonpeople, pallid, faintly luminous beings, regarding our appearance or busied on unknown errands."Either I fancied it or a flake of snow came drifting down on the icy breeze. And then, falling like a snowflake, a little figure, a littleman-insect, clinging to a parachute, drove down very swiftly towards the central places of the moon."The big-headed Selenite sitting beside me, seeing me move my head with the gesture of one who saw, pointed with his trunk-like'hand' and indicated a sort of jetty coming into sight very far below: a little landing-stage, as it were, hanging into the void. As it sweptup towards us our pace diminished very rapidly, and in a few moments, as it seemed, we were abreast of it, and at rest. Amooring-rope was flung and grasped, and I found myself pulled down to a level with a great crowd of Selenites, who jostled to seeme."It was an incredible crowd. Suddenly and violently there was forced upon my attention the vast amount of difference there is amongstthese beings of the moon."Indeed, there seemed not two alike in all that jostling multitude. They differed in shape, they differed in size, they rang all the horriblechanges on the theme of Selenite form! Some bulged and overhung, some ran about among the feet of their fellows. All of them had agrotesque and disquieting suggestion of an insect that has somehow contrived to mock humanity; but all seemed to present an

Answer:

thats 8 point

Explanation:

Here: THE messages of Cavor from the sixth up to the sixteenth are for the most part so much broken, and they abound so in repetitions, that they scarcely form a consecutive narrative. They will be given in full, of course, in the scientific report, but here it will be far more convenient to continue simply to abstract and quote as in the former chapter. We have subjected every word to a keen critical scrutiny, and my own brief memories and impressions of lunar things have been of inestimable help in interpreting what would otherwise have been impenetrably dark. And, naturally, as living beings, our interest centres far more upon the strange community of lunar insects in which he was living, it would seem, as an honoured guest than upon the mere physical condition of their world.

I have already made it clear, I think, that the Selenites I saw resembled man in maintaining the erect attitude, and in having four limbs, and I have compared the general appearance of their heads and the jointing of their limbs to that of insects. I have mentioned, too, the peculiar consequence of the smaller gravitation of the moon on their fragile slightness. Cavor confirms me upon all these points. He calls them "animals," though of course they fall under no division of the classification of earthly creatures, and he points out "the insect type of anatomy had, fortunately for men, never exceeded a relatively very small size on earth." The largest terrestrial insects, living or extinct, do not, as a matter of fact, measure 6 in. in length; "but here, against the lesser gravitation of the moon, a creature certainly as much an insect as vertebrate seems to have been able to attain to human and ultra-human dimensions."

Read the following excerpt from The Story of My Life by Helen Keller and then answer the question that follows.


The morning after my teacher came she led me into her room and gave me a doll. The little blind children at the Perkins Institution had sent it and Laura Bridgman had dressed it; but I did not know this until afterward. When I had played with it a little while, Miss Sullivan slowly spelled into my hand the word "d-o-l-l." I was at once interested in this finger play and tried to imitate it. When I finally succeeded in making the letters correctly I was flushed with childish pleasure and pride. Running downstairs to my mother I held up my hand and made the letters for doll. I did not know that I was spelling a word or even that words existed; I was simply making my fingers go in monkey-like imitation. In the days that followed I learned to spell in this uncomprehending way a great many words, among them pin, hat, cup and a few verbs like sit, stand and walk. But my teacher had been with me several weeks before I understood that everything has a name. I left the well-house eager to learn. Everything had a name, and each name gave birth to a new thought. As we returned to the house every object which I touched seemed to quiver with life. That was because I saw everything with the strange, new sight that had come to me.


Which of the following best summarizes the excerpt?

1. Helen's teacher taught her to finger spell doll so she knew how to tell her teacher what toy she wanted to play with.

2. Helen's teacher taught her all objects have a name opening the world of language.

3. Helen liked to touch all the objects in the house so she knew which ones she wanted to play with.

4. Helen was excited to learn that everything had a name so that she could talk with her teacher.

pls help 15 points Read the passage below from The First Men in the Moon.

I was unshaven and unkempt; I had brought no razor; I had a coarse beard over my mouth. On earth I have always been inclined to despise any attention to my person beyond a proper care for cleanliness; but under the exceptional circumstances in which I found myself, representing, as I did, my planet and my kind, and depending very largely upon the attractiveness of my appearance for a proper reception, I could have given much for something a little more artistic and dignified than the husks I wore.

Coloring is the most relaxing indoor activity. Not only is coloring fun, it does not require a lot of thought, but it still stimulates the mind. Selecting colors for an activity sheet allows for creativity and flexibility. When the coloring sheet is finished, there will be a wide range of unique colors, which would look different if multiple people colored the same activity page. Coloring is an artistic expression that has no set rules, except for maybe coloring within the lines of the activity sheet! For these reasons, coloring is the best choice for an indoor activity.
