Read the passage. summer vacation everyone kept telling me that a summer trip to hawaii would be the highlight of my summer. it was the worst week of my life. my big sister sobbed the whole way to the airport because she would miss her boyfriend. what an overreaction! the trip was six days long! he’d be there when she got back, but she was convinced she had a ticket to planet loneliness, not maui. after listening to her cry for six hours, i wanted to send her somewhere else, too. she started to cheer up when she saw the beaches, but that didn’t last long. our twin little brothers, who often egged each other on to bad decisions, made possibly their worst choice ever: testing how many days they could spend at the beach without wearing any sunscreen. not even one full day before they were so lobster-red that we had to go to the emergency clinic! after that, the beach was off limits. it was totally ridiculous that i couldn’t go swimming just because they were too silly to wear sunscreen. i wasn’t going to make that mistake. but it didn’t matter. mom decreed, “no beach for anybody.” so lucky me, i spent my vacation watching hawaiian tv and eating take-out food, rubbing lotion on my brothers’ blisters and watching my sister sniffle and text her boyfriend. what a vacation! next time i visit hawaii, i think i’ll go alone. which statement describes the language in the passage? the language creates an academic tone. the language shows the author's biases. the language is mostly in the third person. the language evokes joy.

Why does the author's description of the mercury boiler—"the mercury, when vaporized, going into a mercury turbine and then into a condenser, remaining hot enough to generate steam in a steam boiler"—intentionally incorporate such highly technical language? using technical language establishes the expertise of the writer and convey the complex nature of the process being described. using technical language allows the writer to subtly poke fun at those who seek to make basic processes seem overly complicated. using technical language encourages readers to develop deeper and more meaningful personal connections to the information. using technical language lets the writer make clear to readers that the article is intended for readers who are themselves experts on electricity.

Which excerpt from chapter 3 of the strange case of dr. jekyll and mr. hyde illustrates a character vs. character conflict? hosts loved to detain the dry lawyer, when the light-hearted and loose-tongued had already their foot on the threshold; they liked to sit a while in his unobtrusive company. the large handsome face of dr. jekyll grew pale to the very lips, and there came a blackness about his eyes. “i do not care to hear more,” said he. “this is a matter i thought we had agreed to drop.” “my good utterson,” said the doctor, “this is very good of you, this is downright good of you, and i cannot find words to you in. i believe you fully; i would trust you before any man alive, ay, before myself.” but i do sincerely take a great, a very great interest in that young man; and if i am taken away, utterson, i wish you to promise me that you will bear with him and get his rights for him.”
