Body temperature usually rises as the day goes on, quickly drops around midnight, and then begins the cycle of rising again just before 6:00 a.m. Since these changes occur on a twenty-four-hour cycle, so abrupt time zone changes can understandably upset the body’ s well-tuned system of regulation.

A.NO CHANGE

B.However, these

C.Because these

D.These

Concept Attainment Style

Example:

Ain’t Once a fully legitimate contraction of “am not” employed at least in familiar conversation by speakers of all social classes, ain’t came to be identified with less well-educated people, and in the United States specifically with poor rural dwellers. It’s unfortunate that in writing, its use is restricted to humorous emphasis or idiomatic expressions (“Say it ain’t so!”).

Ruckus Ruckus, probably a mash-up of ruction (“disturbance”) and rumpus (“boisterous activity”) — themselves both dialectal terms — is now used only light-heartedly

Yonder This formerly standard term meaning “over there” is now known only in rural dialect (or spoofing of it) or in a poetic sense.

Concept Attainment Style

Example:

Aggro (British usage) aggravation or aggression; "I skipped it because it was too much aggro"

No-brainer

Anything that requires little thought

Security Blaket

Anything that an adult person uses to reduce anxiety

Sunday best

The best attire you have which is typically worn to church on Sunday

Abigail Williams can be seen as the lone antagonist who drives the drama within Arthur Miller’s “The Crucible.” With the use of manipulation and vengeance to attain what she wants, Abigail’s willingness to disregard Puritan societal restrictions quickly sets her apart from the other characters we’ve been introduced to, thus far. Abigail ‘s manipulation comes out in her relationship with John Proctor, as she demonstrates her cunning perception in these words to him: “I have a sense for heat, John, and yours has drawn me to my window, and I have seen you looking up, burning in your loneliness. Do you tell me that you've never looked up at my window?” (Miller, 1953). In this moment, she enables Proctor to admit his continued affection for her even though he is trying to repair his marriage with his wife. Her vengeance is expressed while speaking with her friends in Act 1: “Let either of you breathe a word, or the edge of a word, about the other things, and I will come to you in the black of some terrible night and I will bring a pointy reckoning that will shudder you” (Miller, 1953). This threat demonstrates that Abby will go to any length to ensure that she is safe, no matter who else gets hurt.
