Answer:
Difficulty
Explanation:
Space exploration was the last thing the world could have thought of dabbing into because the idea of moving away from the earth and flying in the sky wasn't even an easy one for man, hence the difficulty attached with going into other planets was a big success.
Many trials were made before the eventual success experienced, this many difficulties man overcame is what is meant by barrier in this sense.
Answer:
Challenges
Explanation:
The word 'barriers' suggests the difficulty and the vast challenge and mystery that is space exploration.
Space is sort of like a limitless and expanding entity and the conditions in space is not particularly favourable to human existence and activities. On that note, this poses a huge challenge for astronauts and other space scientists trying to do their jobs. It therefore requires more efforts, research, funds and creativity to be able to explore space and profer solutions to current and future problems that might arise from space. Such solutions being meteorological predictions of weather conditions, satellite launching and the study of changes in space that might affect our planet.

In the short story, Maria is allowed to stay home from the family's vacation. Have you been given or wish you've been given more independence or responsibilities as you've grown up? If so, describe them.
Answer and explanation:
Yes, I would like to have more freedom to design my own schedule.
I understand parents and other adults trying to influence our decisions in life. They have more experience, they have learned from their own mistakes, so they see how they can prevent the following generation from making those mistakes or going through avoidable pain. On the one hand, I see the benefits of their instructions. On the other hand, I see giving teens and young adults responsibility over certain areas of their own lives as an experience from which we can all benefit. Later in life, we will be responsible not only for ourselves, our diet, our schedule, our health, but also for our families, our jobs and careers. How can we be expected to succeed when we have had others making decisions for us? I would very much like to be responsible for my own schedule. Deciding how much time I get to spend studying, playing, interacting socially etc. will help me realize what needs to be changed according to the results I get at school and in life. That will help me prepare for bigger challenges in the future as well as learn time-management skills that shall be crucial later on.

The author Virginia Woolf once said that the "chief delight" of Pepys's diary might be its revelation of "those very weaknesses and idiosyncrasies which in our own case we would die rather than reveal." What do you think Woolf meant? What effect do Pepys's "weaknesses" have on you as you read the diary?
Answer: To a great extent, the enticing part is the feeling that one is looking at something private.
Explanation:
A greater part of the allure of the diary is the feeling that you are gazing at something private, something that you that wasn't meant to be seen. Pepys would have not included details of his excessive meal alongside careless depiction of how the rest of London is burning if he had realized earlier how widely his diary would be read. Thus, reading it is as fun as hearing an interesting secret always is with the added advantage that the victim is dead a long time ago and cannot be accused in return or be inflicted with pain.

In the book, Farewell to Manzanar, when Mama moves the family to Terminal Island, why is Jeanne afraid? In your opinion, is she culturally more American or more Japanese? Why?
In the book, Farewell to Manzanar, when Mama moves the family to Terminal Island, why is Jeanne afraid?
Answer: Because she was never before surrounded by so many Japanese people on a daily basis.
Explanation:
Farewell to Manzanar is a 1973 memoir written by Jeanne Wakatsuki Houston and James Houston. The book is a description of Jeanne's experiences during Wolrd War II.
In the book, when Papa is arrested, Mama decides to move the family to the Japanese ghetto which is located on Terminal Island. Jeanne is afraid, as she never found herself around so many Japanese people. She is supposed to go to school with them and be surrounded by them all the time. Moreover, there is a joke told by her father when she was younger - that he would sell her to Japanese people if she did not listen to him.
In your opinion, is she culturally more American or more Japanese? Why?
Answer: As she was raised in American culture and speaks English quite proficiently, it could be argued that she is more American than Japanese. She is, however, a mixture of both.
Explanation:
Jeanne probably considers herself to be more American than Japanese. This kind of viewpoint explains her reaction to a family's sudden moving to a Japanese ghetto. She was raised in American culture and is quite proficient in English, while we might assume that she cannot take pride in her Japanese knowledge - we are not sure if she speaks it at all. This all leads to her not being accepted by other Japanese. However, her "fear" of Japanese people is quite ironic, as she is partially Japanese herself.

Explanation:
We saw that many people in this country had a one-sided idea of who was kept free by our flag, as blacks provided the highest percentage of casualties. what does this mean ?
Answer:
It meant that even in America, racial discrimination or racism was being practiced and people were doing nothing about it. The black people were not considered part of the country because they were not given the equal freedom of the white people. Many of them were also killed and tortured. It's about time that the people have to tell the government about its wrongdoing and stand-up against it.
John Kerry was stating this in order to let the United States know that they should choose to have "peace" with the Southeast Asian countries like Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam rather than invading them.
Explanation:
The question above is related to John Kerry's testimony before the Senate Panel in 1971. He was proposing that the United States of America should end the war. He acted as a representative of the Vietnamese veterans who thought that America betrayed them by telling them to invade Vietnam for the country's sake.
However, they came back to the country, not proud because people hated them for what they did in Southeast Asia. They fully understood how Vietnamese felt when they resisted to the colonization of America.

Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book
This is a quote from John Green's "A Fault in our Stars".
It's basically an exaggeration depicting the emotion of a reader who has just read a book that made a very strong impression on the person to levels that he wants everyone to read this book so as to feel the emotions that swell within John. This want is depicted by the phrase "weird evangelical zeal". The reader acknowledges that such a zeal is weird. Few things can make a person want to scream a message to the whole world which is the emotion the above exaggeration is describing. John simply desires for everyone to feel what he felt, but he knows it's most likely not possible to carry another person on the ride of intrigue he experienced, hence admitting that it is weird. There's an irony there because he knows it would be difficult for another to convey theirs to him too.
The exaggeration continues when the John declares that the world stands a chance of fixing itself only after it has read the book. Here John is simply implying that reading this book would be helpful to every reader in every circumstance.

In Paradise Lost, what does Michael mean when he tells Adam to: "Add Virtue, Patience, Temperance, add Love, By name to come call'd Charity, the soul Of all the rest: then wilt thou not be loath To leave this Paradise, but shalt possess A paradise within thee, happier far. "?
Answer:
He is assuring Adam and Eve that it is still possible to live a virtuous life outside of the garden of Eden after they had been driven out of it.
Explanation:
John Milton's epic poem "Paradise Lost" narrates the story of the Biblical story of how Adam and Eve came about to be driven out of the garden of Eden. This poem is an attempt by the poet to "justify the ways of God to men".
In Book X of the poem, the lines show the archangel Michael comforting and assuring the humans Adam and Eve after their exile. God immediately knows that they had disobeyed His order of not eating from the "Tree of Knowledge", thus leading to their expulsion from the garden. The lines spoken by Michael gave a sense of hope for them. He told them that as long as they have the virtues of "Virtue, Patience, Temperance,Love", they lack nothing to live their life as they had done in the Garden. Though they may be driven out of the place, they still possess the qualities that could help them lead a virtuous life. And just as Satan still feels like he's in Hell even though he was inside the Garden, they can also still have the feeling of living in "paradise" even after leaving "this Paradise", as the wisdom they had acquired before will give them "A paradise within thee, happier far".
How does Ultima help Antonio overcome his fear of the "presence," or the soul, of the rive
Answer:
Ultima helps him appreciate the natural beauty of the wide plains that his father loves so much.
Explanation:
Antonio’s changing attitude toward nature reflects the ways in which he is developing into an independent and thoughtful young boy. As a child, Antonio’s fear of the llano represents his dependence on his family and his youth. Later, Ultima helps him appreciate the natural beauty of the wide plains that his father loves so much. Her guidance allows Antonio to find harmony between his conflicting paternal and maternal heritages. This development foreshadows Antonio’s ultimately optimistic end, but it also suggests a new period of difficulty and conflict that parallels his general transition away from childish innocence and toward a more adult wisdom. After he witnesses Lupito’s death, Antonio becomes preoccupied with sin, punishment, and the loss of innocence. Antonio’s confrontation with ideas of good and evil manifests itself in his use of religion to try to understand the world. Antonio recites the Act of Contrition as he runs home, even though he doesn’t fully understand its significance. Furthermore, Lupito forces Antonio to take the figurative role of priest when Lupito asks Antonio for a blessing. Antonio must suddenly deal with the moral significance of an adult dilemma.
Answer:
Ultima helps Antonio overcome his fears of the river by making him to come in terms and appreciate the natural beauty of the wide plains which his Father cherishes so much

The question above is in relation to the book "Bless Me Ultima" by Rudolfo Anaya. Throughout the book, water is used as a symbol of purity and innocence. In the beginning of the novel, the river is defiled by the blood of Lupito. The water of the river represents the sins and impunity of the town itself.
Ultima helps Antonio overcome his fears of the river by making him to come in terms and appreciate the natural beauty of the wide plains which his Father admires and cherishes so much. Ultima makes him to find harmony between the conflicting heritage's of his paternal and maternal origins which conflicts between Spanish and indigenous cultures, This was achieved through Ultima guidance and these helps Antonio develops from the period of his childish innocence to one of more adult wisdom.
