Where do I put these
Answer:
Students who don't study don't do well in school. I am a student. Therefore I don't do well in school. ⇒ HASTY GENERALIZATION.
Hasty generalization occurs when a person reaches a conclusion that is not supported by the evidence that they relied on to reach the conclusion. Saying that you won't do well because you are a student is not supported by the evidence that students who do not study will fail.
The torrential downpour was light this afternoon ⇒ UNDERSTATEMENT.
Torrential rains are known to be quite heavy so saying that they were light is an understatement.
Uniforms are the leading cause of stripping students of their individuality. I don't understand why students in high school are forced to start their day so early ⇒ STRAW MAN.
Straw man fallacy is where an argument is supported by evidence that does not actually support it. The evidence here that students start their day so early does not support uniforms stripping students of their individuality.
Parents are unreasonably strict when it comes to curfews. After all, they can't possibly remember what its like to be a teenager. ⇒ AD HOMINEM.
Ad Hominem occurs when the person making a counter argument is attacked instead of their argument. The statement here attacks parents directly instead of the argument that they are strict with curfews.

write diary entry expressing your feelings after and before you use Age Rager
Answer:
Entry no.1 :
Dear diary,
I just got my result today. I was so nervous that i thought i would faint due to the growing level of anxiety as i waited for the result announcements.
As soon as my name was announced, i started shaking and thought to myself, that if this time, i didn't get good grades, my parents would surely ground me.
To my surprise, my grades turned out to be pretty decent and after getting my grades, i told my parents. Their response was average. As per usual they thought that i could have done better.
So the next day i went to see my life orientation teacher, which people commonly know as ' career counselors'.
She gave me a sheet, which she told me to fill out and bring in my next meeting, and that was it. My 2nd meeting is today, I hope this leads me somewhere.
Entry no. 2:
So like i mentioned earlier, i was supposed to meet up with my life orientation teacher again. So, there a huge line outside her office and i had to wait for a long time, before getting entertained. Unlike the last time, she didn't dismiss me after handing me a piece of paper. In fact, she took her time analyzing my sheet, back and front.
After a long pause, she smiled to me and asked me how i was. I told her that i was fine. Next she asked me how i felt about life in general. I was astonished by her question, as i had never been asked this question before, ever. I gave it a minute, to think. And after that i told her that i found life challenging, considering living upto my parents' expectations, my family pressures and much more. She listened attentively, and nodded briefly. Next she asked me whether i was happy with my previous subject choices, my plans for future, like what are my aspirations, why i left a few questions blank about my dreams.
She helped me sort out my priorities and matching my parents subject choices and combing them with a bunch of mine. She dismissed me on a very sweet note, by giving me life tips of no stressing too much and taking one step at a time. I wonder how she figured out, about me being so uptight.

Read the excerpt from The Odyssey.
Now Zeus the lord of cloud roused in the north
a storm against the ships, and driving veils
of squall moved down like night on land and sea.
The bows went plunging at the gust; sails
cracked and lashed out strips in the big wind.
We saw death in that fury, dropped the yards,
unshipped the oars, and pulled for the nearest lee:
then two long days and nights we lay offshore
worn out and sick at heart, tasting our grief,
until a third Dawn came with ringlets shining.
Then we put up our masts, hauled sail, and rested,
letting the steersmen and the breeze take over.

he was never satisfied/ he was one of the richest men in the world
Answer:
He was never satisfied even though he was one of the richest men in the world.
Explanation:
"Even though" is a subordinating conjunction that is used to introduce a statement that is surprising or unexpected. It is also used to present a stronger emphasis on the concerned statements.
The given sentence presents two parts or qualities of a person. The first states how he's never satisfied while the second states the contrast with the first.
Therefore, using "even though" in between the two statements will present the contrasting yet unexpected statement about the person.
In using the subordinating conjunction "even though", the statement that "he's never satisfied" is contrasted with the other statement "he's one of the richest men in the world". His richness does not seem to make him satisfied, which seems unexpected, in most people's opinion as we tend to think money can make us happy.
Thus, the correct sentence structure will become-
He was never satisfied even though he was one of the richest men in the world.

U.P. Los Baños Medical Plant Program, "and we have discovered that what hebalists are
doing has scientific basis."
From the studies, Mrs. De Padua, together with G.C. Lugod and J.V. Pancho have
published two handbooks on Philippine Medical Plants. She has lectured on plants and
their cures and has spoken in medical seminars on medical plants.
