write a 300-600 word short story about a 2 vs 2 basketball tournament using dialogue and correct grammar.

Answer:

Explanation:

How exciting! Today is my basketball Grand-final! My team of six enthusiastic boys led by our coach, Jack, has worked extremely hard just to make the finals. My heart was pounding a hundred kilometres an hour as I walked into our home ground, Slater Reserve. As I hurried to our team bench, our opponents caught my attention. They seemed a lot taller and “meaner” looking.

Whistle blew. Five of us started on the court. Our opponent got hold of the ball first. They were unbelievably fast. They kept penetrating our defences and kept scoring goals. Excited parents were cheering so much that their faces were as red as beetroots. None of us could stop our opponent’s best player, Zac, from scoring. He was shooting from all directions and was getting them in! By half time, both teams were extremely exhausted and our opponents were ten goals ahead which presented us with an enormous, but achievable challenge.

Jack was awfully frustrated as we were not playing anywhere near our best. He told us to play as a team and that we could still win if we make our transitions much quicker so that penalty shots come our way. He also directed us to rebound and position ourselves better to receive and score goals.

Our team was all fired up. The second half started in our favour. We were as quick as lightning on the court. We were dribbling, passing, shooting and rebounding without any mistakes. We caught our oppositions by surprise. The scores were almost level. We were trailing only by one point. The crowd was growing wild with excitement, fuelling our confidence. At the same time, our opponents switched back to attention and started playing like what they did in the first half making it harder for us to score.

After much effort we managed to score a crucial goal with fifteen seconds left! Our opponent threw in the ball but I managed to steal it! Our team was bursting with happiness! More opponents were heading my way and I had to pass the ball to Bryce, our team-mate. Instead of hanging on to the ball, Bryce did the most unexpected thing. He tried to score from half court! He missed by miles!

One second left and our opponent had possession of the ball. Our hearts ached for the final whistle but when it finally came our opponent had already sent their ball in the air and was heading towards the ring. We felt like the end of world had come when the ball went through the ring! That marked the end of our Grand final dream.

My whole team was broken hearted. Everyone was holding back their tears. We almost succeeded until Sean, our best shooter, broke down. Jack commended us for not giving up and fought to the end, which was the most important thing. We departed with eager anticipation for the next season.

Answer:

Explanation:

My name is Justin and I love basketball, most of the time. Sometimes, I play great and sometimes, I don't. I'm a wing, that's right a chicken wing. I chicken out when it comes to shooting the ball. I'm great at assisting, but I never want to shoot. I have tried before and made it, but I simply thought that was good luck. I'd rather be our tiger mascot sometimes, but I think I'm better at basketball.

I learned that we were going to be in a tournament. I was so excited, but also scared. When I heard the news I practiced everyday on my shooting, defense, and offense skills. Coach Michael could see my hard work, and said I wasn't so nervous when it came to shooting. My teammates also noticed it.

The big day was here we would be play the Bulldogs, Indians, and the best team the Vipers. My team wasn't the best, but we surely weren't the worst. Our first game was with the Bulldogs. We won 56 to 28, but I was disappointed. All I did was assist, as always. Coach M was yelling for me to shoot, but I would just pass the ball to Ryan.

Then we played the Indians, and we beat them. The only problem was that I was the first up and down the court, but wouldn't shoot. I was drenched in sweat. The next game was with the Vipers. Coach M pulled me aside. He said, "Justin I see you are working hard, but you can't be afraid to shoot the ball." I said, "I know Coach Michael, but what if I miss?" "Trust me son, you won't miss I saw how you were shooting in practice. You have good form."

I was determined to shoot. The Vipers were a hard team to beat, so we would need the extra points. I ran down the court as fast as I could and yelled, "Mica! Ball ball ball!" Mica threw an over head pass. I caught it saw everyone running down, and made a lay up. We were losing the score was 45 to 50. I was panting and tired, but I was determined to win. I did the same thing again, and I was fouled. I made my two free throws. The score now 47 to 50, 2nd half, 4th quarter, and 2:47 left in the game.

Coach M yelled, "Get the ball down the court!" I ran down the court I was passed the ball, but did not shoot. I knew we needed a 3 pointer to get us tied, so I waited for Josh. I yelled, "Josh! Josh!" He caught the ball, and shot the 3 pointer. The score was now tied with 00:46 left in the game. Coach M said, "Justin I want you to run down the court and make a lay up. Mica and Josh be there to rebound. Ryan and Evan make sure to screen for them. Got it!" Everyone yelled, "Yes Coach!"

The pressure was on the ref blew the whistle. My heart was pounding, sweat was rolling down my forehead, and my legs were moving.  Evan blocked a shot. Mica caught the ball, and saw me down the court. He passed it with 00:10 second left in the game. I shot and I made it! Mica yelled, "Yeah! I knew we could count on you!" Coach M ran up to me and said, "Thanks for working hard, and helping your team with the win." The whole gym was electric, and I was finally proud of myself!

Read the passage.
There was something about the coast town of Dunnet which made it seem more attractive than other maritime villages of eastern Maine.
Perhaps it was the simple fact of acquaintance with that neighborhood which made it so attaching, and gave such interest to the rocky shore and
dark woods, and the few houses which seemed to be securely wedged and tree-nailed in among the ledges by the Landing. These houses made the
most of their seaward view, and there was a gayety and determined floweriness in their bits of garden ground; the small-paned high windows in the
peaks of their steep gables were like knowing eyes that watched the harbor and the far sea-line beyond, or looked northward all along the shore
and its background of spruces and balsam firs. When one really knows a village like this and its surroundings, it is like becoming acquainted with a
single person. The process of falling in love at first sight is as final as it is swift In such a case, but the growth of true friendship may be a lifelong
affair.
After a first brief visit made two or three summers before in the course of a yachting cruise, a lover of Dunnet Landing returned to find the
unchanged shores of the pointed firs, the same quaintness of the village with its elaborate conventionalities; all that mixture of remoteness, and
childish certainty of being the centre of civilization of which her affectionate dreams had told. One evening In June, a single passenger landed upon
the steamboat wharf. The tide was high, there was a fine crowd of spectators, and the younger portion of the company followed her with subdued
excitement up the narrow street of the salt-alred, white-clapboarded little town.
(from The Country of the Pointed Firs by Sarah Orne Jewett)

Debt is a big problem for Americans. Almost 40% of Americans have some kind of credit card debt, and an average household carries
anywhere from $7,000 to $15,000 in credit card debt at any given time. Some people say that the credit card companies' unethical actions
are to blame. These companies bombard people with offers for available credit, reel them in, and then, due to interest and finance charges,
individuals are "on the hook" for years trying to pay off their debts. Other people say that those who are in debt are to blame. It's everyone's
responsibility to manage her/his own finances wisely and not to charge purchases that can't be paid off. What do you think?

Review this excerpt from the essay "More Than a Pair of Jeans."

One strategy is to publish ads that show beautiful, glamorous people wearing the jeans the company hopes to sell. Such ads suggest that even you—yes, you—will become more beautiful and glamorous (and maybe even skinnier!) if you choose to wear the jeans. Another technique is to make you feel as if you will face social rejection if you're not wearing the right clothes.

What is the most likely reason for adding the phrase "yes, you" in the middle of the second sentence?

a. to emphasize that beauty and glamor make people feel special
b. to demonstrate how repetition works to persuade and influence consumers
c. to suggest that everyone reading the article is affected by ads in the same way
d. to show how most viewers of ads featuring beauty and glamor are suspicious

Write a seven-stanza poem about elearning using the same rhyme scheme as "Ring Out, Wild Bells" and use alliteration in at least four different lines and onomatopoeia in at least four lines. Here is a hint: the rhyme scheme for each stanza is ABBA. Make sure you single space your stanzas and add the extra space between each stanza. You do not have to indent the second and third lines as Tennyson did, and you do not have to match his metrical pattern.

Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky,
The flying cloud, the frosty light:
The year is dying in the night;
Ring out, wild bells, and let him die.

Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the snow:
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true.

There's some of the poem.
