Read the following passage and answer the question that follows.

The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson Part 1
Mr. Utterson the lawyer was a man of a rugged countenance, that was never lighted by a smile; cold, scanty and embarrassed in discourse; backward in sentiment; lean, long, dusty, dreary, and yet somehow lovable. At friendly meetings, and when the wine was to his taste, something eminently human beaconed from his eye; something indeed which never found its way into his talk, but which spoke not only in these silent symbols of the after-dinner face, but more often and loudly in the acts of his life. He was austere with himself; drank gin when he was alone, to mortify a taste for vintages; and though he enjoyed the theatre, had not crossed the doors of one for twenty years. But he had an approved tolerance for others; sometimes wondering, almost with envy, at the high pressure of spirits involved in their misdeeds; and in any extremity inclined to help rather than to reprove. "I incline to, Cain's heresy*," he used to say. "I let my brother go to the devil in his quaintly 'own way.'" In this character, it was frequently his fortune to be the last reputable acquaintance and the last good influence in the lives of down-going men. And to such as these, so long as they came about his chambers, he never marked a shade of change in his demeanour. No doubt the feat was easy to Mr. Utterson; for he was undemonstrative at the best, and even his friendship seemed to be founded in a similar catholicity of good-nature. It is the mark of a modest man to accept his friendly circle ready-made from the hands of opportunity; and that was the lawyer's way. His friends were those of his own blood or those whom he had known the longest; his affections, like ivy, were the growth of time, they implied no aptness in the object. Hence, no doubt, the bond that united him to Mr. Richard Enfield, his distant kinsman, the well-known man about town. It was a nut to crack for many, what these two could see in each other, or what subject they could find in common. It was reported by those who encountered them in their Sunday walks, that they said nothing, looked singularly dull, and would hail with obvious relief the appearance of a friend. For all that, the two men put the greatest store by these excursions, counted them the chief jewel of each week, and not only set aside occasions of pleasure, but even resisted the calls of business, that they might enjoy them uninterrupted. *The biblical story of Cain and Abel is a story about two brothers who gave offerings to God. Abel’s offering was accepted by God, but Cain’s was not. Jealous, Cain killed his brother. When God asked Cain where Abel was, Cain said, "Am I my brother’s keeper?" By saying this, Cain implied that what his brother did was his own business. (Genesis 4:1-16) What may the mention of the Cain and Abel story in the quote in the second paragraph foreshadow?

That Mr. Utterson will be involved in violence
That Mr. Utterson and Mr. Enfield are actually brothers
That this will be a story about Mr. Utterson's sin and forgiveness
That Mr. Utterson and Mr. Enfield are two parts of a trinity of characters

Public Domain
1 A creative work is said to be in the public domain if there are no laws which restrict its use by the public at large. For instance, a work may be in the public domain if no laws establish proprietary rights over the work, or if the work or its subject matter are specifically excluded from existing laws.

2 Because proprietary rights are founded in national laws, an item may be public domain in one jurisdiction but not another. For instance, some works of literature are public domain in the US but not in the EU and vice versa.

3 The underlying idea that is expressed or manifested in the creation of a work generally cannot be the subject of copyright law (see idea-expression divide). Mathematical formulae will therefore generally form part of the public domain, to the extent that their expression in the form of software is not covered by copyright; however, algorithms can be the subject of a software patent in some jurisdictions.

4 Works created before the existence of copyright and patent laws also form part of the public domain. The Bible and the inventions of Archimedes are in the public domain. However, copyright may exist in translations or new formulations of these works.

5 Although "intellectual property" laws are not designed to prevent facts from entering the public domain, collections of facts organized or presented in a creative way, such as categorized lists, may be copyrighted. Collections of data with intuitive organization, such as alphabetized directories like telephone directories, are generally not copyrightable. In some countries copyright-like rights are granted for databases, even those containing mere facts. A sui generis database rights regime is in place in the European Union.

6 Works of the United States Government and various other governments are excluded from copyright law and may therefore be considered to be in the public domain in their respective countries. They may also be in the public domain in other countries as well.

7 Creative Commons [2], an organization which promotes the migration of works into the public domain as well as copyleft licensing schemes, holds that:

8 Public access to literature, art, music, and film is essential to preserving and building on our cultural heritage.

Which two phrases or sentences from the passage help the reader identify the meaning of the phrase, "proprietary rights"?

A) The creation of a work generally cannot be the subject of copyright law.


B) A sui generis database rights regime is in place in the European Union.


C) No laws which restrict its use by the public at large.


D) The Bible and the inventions of Archimedes are in the public domain.


E) Some works of literature are public domain in the US but not in the EU and vice versa.

If you are interested in becoming a news reporter, start thinking about what kind of stories you want to write. News stories are usually divided into two types: hard news and soft news.
Hard news stories are usually about important events that are being reported on as they happen. Stories about things like politics, war, and crime fall into this group. They take a factual approach: What happened? When? Who was involved? Hard news is also called “general news” sometimes.
Soft news stories entertain the reader. They give background information and often tell a story. These stories are considered “human interest” because they talk about people in a personal or emotional way. They include information about their problems or concerns in a way that makes people sympathize.

I know that this seems like a handful but I really need the help. What is the organizational structure for "Achieving Your Goals." Essay below:

Achieving Your Goals

by Sunni Desai

When I was young, it seemed like everyone was always trying to tell me what I couldn’t do. “That piano piece is too hard for you to play.” “You’re too small to be a forward.” “You won’t understand those equations until you’re older. “ For a long time, I believed them. Now that I’m older, people still say those things, but since I’ve mastered those equations, played forward for two years, and am almost ready to play that piano piece, I know that sometimes you have to follow your dreams, and that you should never give up just because someone says that you can’t accomplish your goal.

First of all, if someone says your dream is impossible, they’re wrong. You can’t prove that something is impossible--all you know is that is hasn’t been done yet. People said no one could scale Mount Everest, but in 1953, Sir Edmund Hilary and Tenzing Norgay gazed down upon the world from its summit. People said that man could not fly, but in 1903, Orville and Wilbur Wright made the first sustained powered flight in a heavier-than-air machine. People said, “Okay, we admit that someone could climb Mount Everest, and we admit that man has learned to fly, but no one will ever, ever walk on the face of the moon.” If we can send three men a quarter of a million miles away and bring them home safely, is there any great task we cannot accomplish?

Secondly, whether you’ve taken one or a hundred steps towards your goal, you’ve done real and valuable work. Imagining a goal takes courage and creativity, and acting on it takes determination and hard work. Whether or not you ever reach your goal, you’ve stretched your imagination and tested your character. Those acts are worth a lot more than someone’s thoughtless or rude remark. A rude remark is like a piece of litter in a national park--the best thing to do is throw it in the garbage where it belongs.

Most importantly, this is your life, not someone else’s, and it’s your responsibility to live it. Some goals you might not achieve, and some dreams might always remain dreams. But when you look back on your life, wouldn’t you rather have succeeded or failed because of the choices you made, not because of some rude thing someone said? Or would you rather spend the rest of your life wondering what might have happened if you had soldiered on? Living is about the choices we make every moment; it’s our job to make choices that make those moments count.

Sometimes, though, the people who know and love us best try to discourage us from achieving our dreams or accomplishing our goals. Perhaps they don't want you to get hurt. Perhaps they don't understand how important your dream is to you. We trust and respect them, so it’s hard to act against their advice--and sometimes they might be right. But never give up on a goal or dream just because someone tells you it’s impossible. Give up on it because you think it’s the right thing to do, or stick with it because it’s your dream. The choice is yours. The moment is yours. The question is: what will you do with it?
