We have just watched a video; it is a scene from the movie “Falling down”. A man enters a fast-food restaurant to order breakfast. The waitress refuses him because the breakfasts are no longer served. She offers him lunch. The man gets angry and asks what she calls the manager. He comes in and tells him the same thing, that they stop serving breakfast at 11:30. It’s 11:31. They force him to have lunch, we do not take him into account. They do not ask him for his opinion. This lack of respect, even though he is a customer, that he will pay, drives him crazy. He pulls out a weapon. Everyone is scared! And he asks for breakfast again, the answer is "yes, sire." So, he changes his mind, and decides to choose lunch. He teases people because he made an attack in the fast food for his breakfast and now, he doesn’t want it.

Do you personally agree or disagree with this statement? Why? How do you think Jobs exemplified this in his daily life? You may choose to review the excerpt from Steve Jobs: The Many Who Thought Different in order to find supporting details. Your response should be about 150 words.
Answers
Answer:
"Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice" implementation
Explanation:
I personally agree this statement of Steve Jobs " Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition"
I agree, because a person can be happy by following only what his / her own heart & mind say, not the footprints of others. Diluting self personality because of world's perceptions is derogatory for personal, professional growth.
Jobs exemplifies this in his daily life by practicing what he preached. He left university for starting apple. He later also took many brave decisions, stated that 'I want to put a dent in universe'. He innovated & became a leader. So, he followed his inner voice, irrespective of people's opinion regarding the same.

B) the title usually has nothing to do with the theme
C) the title reveals details about the conflict
D) authors drop clues in a story’s title about what one of the themes might be
Answers
Answer:
I would probably say D
Explanation:
D is most likely the correct answer as most book titles with give hints about the themes in it. For example: The boy in the striped pyjamas.
The title of this tells us that it is obviously about young children as it says boys.
Authors drop clues in a story’s title about what one of the themes might be the title of a story helps you figure out the theme. The correct option is D.

QUICK I WILL GIVE U BRAINLIEST!!!! Read this stanza from "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe.
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore—
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
"'Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door—
Only this and nothing more."
How does what happens in this stanza propel the action in the poem?
It gives the speaker a reason to speak to the raven.
It introduces the story and sets up the coming events.

The outfit, the car, and the gadgets are just a few of the recognizable superhero accessories. But there is one comic book cliché that really stands out: the secret lair. Other superheroes have private hideouts that serve as storage facilities for their superhero gear and any other services they might require. In the DC universe, there are many such lairs, some of which are more recognizable than others. They are used for containment, research, development, or simply as a place for the hero to withdraw and brood.
