Answer:
to distance himself from those present
Explanation:
According to the excerpt from David Foster Wallace's Infinite Jest, the narrator describes the different deans by their titles rather than names. He describes the Dean of Admissions, Athletics and Academics.
The most likely reason the narrator refers to them by their titles rather than names is to distance himself from those present.

Explanation:
Which theme is best supported by the comparison in this passage from My Antonia? The daughters of Black Hawk merchants had a confident, unenquiring belief that they were “refined,” and that the country girls, who “worked out,” were not. The American farmers in our county were quite as hard-pressed as their neighbours from other countries. All alike had come to Nebraska with little capital and no knowledge of the soil they must subdue. All had borrowed money on their land. But no matter in what straits the Pennsylvanian or Virginian found himself, he would not let his daughters go out into service. Unless his girls could teach a country school, they sat at home in poverty. The Bohemian and Scandinavian girls could not get positions as teachers, because they had had no opportunity to learn the language. Determined to help in the struggle to clear the homestead from debt, they had no alternative but to go into service. Some of them, after they came to town, remained as serious and as discreet in behaviour as they had been when they ploughed and herded on their father’s farm. Others, like the three Bohemian Marys, tried to make up for the years of youth they had lost. But every one of them did what she had set out to do, and sent home those hard-earned dollars. The girls I knew were always helping to pay for ploughs and reapers, brood-sows, or steers to fatten. Life on the prairie builds strong, healthy people. America is a country built on business. Having a clear goal to help family leads people to succeed. A good father protects his daughters.

Which sentence in the Gettysburg Address supports the claim that President Lincoln did not recognize the historical importance of his speech?
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth, upon this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the
proposition that "all men are created equal."
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived, and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met
on a great battle field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of it, as a final resting place for those who died here, that the nation
might live. This we may, in all propriety do. But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate-we can not consecrate-We can not hallow, this ground
--The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have hallowed it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note,
nor long remember what we say here; while it can never forget what they did here.
It is rather for us, the living, we here be dedicated to the great task remaining before us--that, from these honored dead we take increased
devotion to that cause for which they here, gave the last full measure of devotion-that we here highly resolve these dead shall not have died in
vain; that the nation, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people by the people for the people, shall not perish from
the earth.

It is this sentence. He could not imagine, in all humility, that every school child in America would have a knowledge of the Gettysburg address.

Write a 2 paragraph summary on the Pardoner's tale from Chaucer's "The Canterbury Tales."
hii
At the beginning of the tale, the pardoner gives the sermon describing the kind of sins the people he’s going to tell the tale of indulges in.
Gluttony, the in that had Adam and Eve were thrown out of Eden; drunkenness that makes a person lose his conscience; gambling that kindles greed in people; and swearing. After the sermon, he returns to the tale.
Three friends were drinking when they hear the funeral knell and one of them tells the others that one of their old friends has been killed by a person named death.
All of them resolve, in their drunkenness, to find Death and kill him. They go on to search for Death. On the road, they meet an old man who seems upset and has been waiting for death to take him. They ask him he has seen Death and he guides towards a tree where he has left death some time ago.
They reach the tree and find eight bushels of gold. Astonished to have found so much gold without any owner around, they decide to transport the gold in the eight so nobody finds out about it. They draw lots to send someone to bring wine and bread in the meantime.
The youngest one is chosen by the fate to go to the town. He goes and sly one of the rest two proposes to kill the one gone to the town so as to expand their share of gold, the other one agrees.
The youngest has also planned to kill the other two to become one of the richest in the world. So, he buys the strongest poison and mixes that in the two bottles of wine and keeps one pure for himself.
As he reaches around the tree, other two come from behind the tree and knife him and he’s dead. Feeling as to have expanded their share of gold they drink wine to celebrate and both of the pick the poisoned bottle. Soon they lay dead around their dead friend leaving the gold for nobody.
The pardoner concludes his tale be warning people of the sin of avarice.

Argument 1: Children who play sports are often healthier as adults. Adult Health recently published a survey that shows 82 percent of healthy adults participated in sports when they were children. Argument 2: Children who play sports are often healthier as adults. The Family Gym website states, "Children can swim or play in the ball pit while their parents exercise in the gym or take group fitness classes."
Which argument is supported by relevant evidence, and how?
O A. Argument 1, because the quote supports the claim that children can get exercise while their parents are working out O B. Argument 2, because the quote supports the claim that children can get exercise while their parents are working out O C. Argument 2, because the example supports the claim that children who play sports become healthier adults O D. Argument 1, because the example supports the claim that children who play sports become healthier adults
Answer:
D. Argument 1, because the example supports the claim that children who play sports become healthier adults.
Explanation:
The argument that is supported by relevant evidence is the first one. It relies on a survey according to which children who play sports become healthier adults. It includes the correct causal relationship - a type of relationship where one thing causes another thing to happen.
This type of relationship isn't present in the second argument. Children getting exercise while their parents work out isn't really related to them being healthier as adults. Them swimming from time to time or playing in a ball pit can't be considered playing sports and will not contribute to their development.
This is why option D is the correct one.
