Answer:

Little is to say to Floyd's friends and family in such a painful moment. However, I do believe that his death has had a powerful impact and them knowing that it might be able to change the world as we know it, could provide them some comfort.

Explanation:

The police violence against George Floyd is no different from any other African American experience with the police, and it saddens me that only because this case became filmed and viral online, is that people are now paying attention.

The protests feel like an eruption that could not be avoided, because impunity has gone too far, and people are rightfully angry. And the police brutality against those protesting is only one more proof of that rightfulness.  

I feel that at this point is time to listen to African Americans and make sure that governmental policies are applied to fix the inherent racism in our society, not only by the police but also in every microaggression we all reproduce in our everyday lives.

I´m scared that these events may not be enough, that eventually the media will stop focusing on this issue. It´s on every one of us to keep this conversation going, to make sure policies are changed, to vote for those who believe in equality, and to revise our own behaviors to ensure change happens.  

Let's suppose that our existing democratic government is suddenly overtaken by a new dictatorship type of government. The new government in control decrees that from now on the right to speak and worship freely is forbidden. Should you choose not to obey the new regulations, you will be severely punished, jailed, or put to death. How would you respond to such harsh regulations? Would you: obey, disobey, something.Explain what you would do and why you made your choice. Your answer must be in complete sentences.

Read "The Debt” by Paul Laurence Dunbar.

This is the debt I pay
Just for one riotous day,
Years of regret and grief,
Sorrow without relief.

Pay it I will to the end —
Until the grave, my friend,
Gives me a true release —
Gives me the clasp of peace.

Slight was the thing I bought,
Small was the debt I thought,
Poor was the loan at best —
God! but the interest!

Which theme does this passage from The Hobbit develop?
The dwarves indeed no longer needed any urging. All were now eager to explore the hall while they had the
chance, and willing to believe that, for the present, Smaug was away from home. Each now gripped a lighted torch;
and as they gazed, first on one side and then on another, they forgot fear and even caution. They spoke aloud, and
cried out to one another, as they lifted old treasures from the mound or from the wall and held them in the light
caressing and fingering them.
O Good always overcomes evil.
Seemingly ordinary individuals can do extraordinary things.

Paige has been asked to respond to this excerpt from "On Becoming an Inventor" by Dean Kamen.

I found that at college I could get help from my teachers with solving business problems and in learning new techniques for designing new things. I enjoyed talking to my professors and learning physics and other complex subjects--but I never had time to go to class. I literally never went to class. My professors were mentors and private tutors. The professors gave me as much time as they reasonably could. Every once in a while one would say, "Sorry, I've got to go teach a class"--and leave.

What is the best educated opinion that Paige can include in her response?

Kamen was a lazy college student.
Kamen had a strong desire to learn.
Kamen's favorite subject was physics.
Kamen paid his professors to tutor him.

Read "Sonnet 29" by William Shakespeare. Then, answer the question that follows.

When, in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes,
I all alone beweep my outcast state,
And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries,
And look upon myself and curse my fate,
Wishing me like to one more rich in hope,
Featured like him, like him with friends possessed,
Desiring this man's art and that man's scope,
With what I most enjoy contented least;
Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising,
Haply I think on thee, and then my state,
(Like to the lark at break of day arising
From sullen earth) sings hymns at heaven's gate;
For thy sweet love remembered such wealth brings
That then I scorn to change my state with kings.
