Answer 24

Heres the answers for me, Make sure to read every question carefully and don't answer it blind. Trust me, I've made that mistake before. Sorry if we don't have the same answers, they might change it every year.
1: A (Key word Hie = go quickly Plain = Flatland)

2 part a: C (Before these lines the author says "The days are short"
part b: B since spark implies its just for a short time

3: "Imagery includes language that appeals to all of the human senses, including sight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell." In your little voice the author says "With the jostling and shouting of merry flowers" Merry means Cheerful and lively, meaning the speaker is feeling cheerful. "I was whirled and tossed into delicious dancing" = Happy or pleasant dancing. Later at the end "How i was crazy how i 'cried' when i heard over time. and tide and 'death' " The speaker used the words cried and death, meaning they are most likely sad. Use this and make it your own words, and or do the same thing with "Grandma Ling" so it's more original.

4: C "The objective case refers to when a noun or pronoun is used as an object" Us = object.

5: B (Key word "MY" signature)

6: A ("Ian handed the book to me" Me = object)

7: A (The German version of the word tongue can be translated into the English version)

8: C (Gardening, Pollen, Flowers = Pollen, Gardening = plants, Flowers = plants)

9: A (Exquisite means "extremely beautiful and, typically, delicate" Flawed means "blemished, damaged, or imperfect in some way."

10: This will prolly ask for your independent reading selection, sorry but ya gotta do this on your own, but its pretty easy, pick a story that roughly has the same themes like animals or family or smth

Good luck, and remember these could be COMPLETELY wrong for you. So make sure they aren't :]

Answer 25

Also I might be wrong on number 2 part B, It could also be C, so take that with a grain of salt. Other wise im 100% sure everything else is correct.
