When Allison saw the advertisement for a free basketball clinic at the community center, she knew she would attend.

In "Flowers for Algernon," what is one aspect of the text that
shows Charlie is returning to his old condition?
A
He says he hates Algernon.
B
He learns German.
С
He asks Miss Kinnian to dinner.
D
He starts to spell badly again.
Answer:
D He starts to spell badly again.
Explanation:
Daniel Keyes's science-fictional story "Flowers for Algernon," tells the story of Charlie Gordon, a mentally disabled man. The plot follows him from his mental disability to becoming intelligent to such an extent that he encompassed his peers but then reverted back to his old self, rendering him the same developmentally disabled man once again.
At the beginning of the text, we see Charlie as a mentally unstable and disabled man, prepped for a scientific experiment to help him become more intelligent. Then, after he became intelligent, he would do things better than the others. Throughout the "diary entry" of Charlie, we can see his development based on his writing skills.
First, he couldn't spell properly, then became better and excelled in it. He then again began to spell incorrectly, which is a sign of his deteriorating condition.
Thus, the correct answer is option D.

Cryptologists looked for cribs, which are repeated expressions in messages. Sloppy operators would repeat phrases like "nothing to report" or "weather forecast" (Wettervorhersage), which served as clues. If there were no cribs to be found, the British would send out false information about, say, British mines planted in a given area. The Germans might then send messages with the name of that area, which would provide clues about deciphering that code.

A friend of yours who has been living in Europe for some years has written to invite you join him. Write a reply to his letter giving,at least,three reasons why you would rather remain in your country.
writers address
Dear (your friend)
How are you doing over there in Sweden? I hope everything is okay with you and your studies? I was very happy to get your letter dated 25th June 2014. I must tell you that the letter went a long way in filling the vacuum you left behind with your sudden departure to Europe to search for greener pasture. Atey I must also let you know that everyone is missing you dearly here in Nigeria.
Sometimes we your friends that is to say Osaze.Yemi and Kewe meet at the usual joint at Playball Viewing Centre at Maku Street where we used to watch English Premiership matches to talk about you fondly. We try to imagine the type of life you will be living over there with their kind of weather.I hear it is always cold down there being a Scandinavian country and that the citizens walk about wearing thick clothes, smoking and drinking whisky because of the harsh weather. What a life!
I must tell you that I appreciate your letter because it was informative and very timely I must say. I read the contents over and over again; taking my time to make sure nothing was left behind. I enjoyed the most the third paragraph where you narrated how you were recently embarrassed at an eatery for not knowing how to use folks and knives. I laughed so much at that story that my stomach almost burst. Well, it is a pity that you allowed that to happen to you because I remember that I encouraged you to do something about it before you travelled but you took my advice for granted. I believe that you have learnt your lesson now. I will advise you as a friend to go learn how to eat with cutlery now because you are no more in Nigeria where most of our food are finger food you know. It is not too late to learn how to eat with cutlery.
Now, in the letter you sent you want me to join you in Sweden and I must say that am very delighted to read that part I must confess. I use this opportunity to thank you for being very thoughtful and nice to me among all your numerous friends. But Atey am sorry to decline your offer of invitation and I want you to please try to understand and bear with me.1 know you will be itching to know why I declined your offer of invitation .The reasons are that my mother is sick and needs my attention urgently. As the first son I have to be around her all the time, am currently gainfully employed in the country after many years of searching for a job and lastly the security situation has improved because the president is doing his best to ensure that the citizens are well protected.
I wish you the best in Sweden and please don't forget to reply to my letter. Love you and take care.
Your best friend,
