Part I: Realistic, Specific, and Measurable
Think of three things you would like to accomplish. You may choose to create short-term, long-term, or a combination of goals. Your goals may be related to school, sports, music, or anything else that is important to you.
Write a SMART goal for each of the things you would like to accomplish. You will write a total of three goals. Include steps to achieve each goal.
Review the three goals you wrote. Are the goals realistic? If not, make edits to change them into more realistic goals. Are the goals specific? If not, make edits to change them into more specific goals. Are the goals measurable? Do they include short-term and long-term steps? If not, make edits to change them into more measurable goals.

Answer:
I would like to get through High School, become a writer, and help people out with their homework. For my first goal I will do my work, for my second goal I will start publishing my books online first then when I'm more known I will write publicly. For my third goal I will help my friends do their homework- and others who need help- with their homework and get to college. It may take some time but I will get it done.
Explanation:
Juliet: Is there no pity sitting in the clouds/That sees into the bottom of my grief? —/O sweet my mother, cast me not away!/Delay this marriage for a month, a week.
Nurse: I think it best you married with the county./O, he's a lovely gentleman!/Romeo's a dishclout to him: an eagle, madam,/Hath not so green, so quick, so fair an eye/As Paris hath. (correct)
The quote by Nurse in Act III, Scene 5 of Romeo and Juliet illustrates Shakespeare's use of comic relief. Her humorous comparison of Romeo to a 'dishclout' lightens the seriousness of the scene.
The quote that illustrates Shakespeare's use of comic relief in Act III, Scene 5 of Romeo and Juliet is Nurse's line: 'I think it best you married with the county./O, he's a lovely gentleman!/Romeo's a dishclout to him: an eagle, madam,/ Hath not so green, so quick, so fair an eye/ As Paris hath.' The character of the Nurse often provides comic relief throughout the play. In this particular scene, the Nurse's comparison of Romeo to a 'dishclout', or dishrag, in contrast to Paris's grand eagle, adds a touch of humor amidst the scene's overall gravity, thereby providing comic relief.

Question: Select the excerpt from "Mother Tongue" by Amy Tan that best describes language bias.
Answer: 1. I've heard other terms used, "limited English," for example. But they seem just as bad, as if everything is limited, including people's perceptions of the limited-English speaker.
