Penguins are unique (special or different) animals. There are 17 species of penguins. They are aquatic (related to water), flightless birds living throughout the world although most of them are found in the Southern hemisphere and especially in Antarctica. Most penguins can be found in these countries: New Zealand, Australia, Chile, Argentina, and South Africa. Penguins spend about half their time in water and the other half on land.
They do not have wings like other birds. Penguins have flippers that they use to swim. Their black and white color serves as camouflage (hide or disguise themselves/merge with nature) as they swim under water. The white reflects and the black cannot be seen by predators. Emperor Penguins are the tallest species,standing nearly 4 feet tall. The smallest is the Little Blue Penguin, which is only about 16 inches.
Most penguins feed on krill, fish, squid and other forms of sea life that they catch while swimming underwater.

Penguin parents care for their young for several months until the chicks are strong enough to hunt for food on their own. These creatures are unique and fun to observe and learn about.

Mary,

I would be happy to tell you about my most important relationship! My most important relationship is with my grandpa, John. He is super smart and kind. He worked in construcation for a while so he is pretty good with tools. That made it so that he was able to build an attic and a basement at the house my mom grew up in. His dad (my great grandpa) also meant a lot to me because he always gave my cookies and that was the kindest thing you could do for a 7 year old. When I was 8 John taught me how to find the circumference of a circle because I loved math so much. He passed away about a year ago but he will always be in my heart.  My relationship with my grandpa meant the world to me because I didn't grow up with a father so he was my only father figure while I was growing up. What is your most important relationship?

Hope to hear back soon,

Foreshadowing isn’t always a big, dramatic statement. Sometimes just naming a future event is an example of foreshadowing. For example, Rafael is in class, listening to his science teacher talk about fossils. But his mind keeps wandering to the meeting he has later today with the principal. That might seem like a small or meaningless detail—but if the author took the time to mention the meeting, maybe more than once, you can bet that whatever happens in this meeting is going to be significant. This is especially true if a character feels apprehension, or fear, about the upcoming event. This type of foreshadowing creates anticipation for the future event and prepares the reader for what is to come.

Which of the following passages is the best example of foreshadowing through anticipation?

A
When I reached into the box, I found a bunch of rubber snakes. I jumped back in shock—I’m scared of snakes!

B
Karl wasn’t sure if he liked the new girl, even after having lunch with her in the cafeteria. She seemed nice enough, but she didn’t like hip-hop.

C
As Jamie got ready for bed, all she could think about was her doctor’s appointment tomorrow. She was going to find out whether or not her illness had come back.

D

I got this question as well and this is my written answer:

Logan is an unattractive old man who lets Janie live in his house to get back on her feet. His house is very comfortable with plenty of food since he's a farmer, with 60 acres of land. When living in this house, Janie learns how to be a less spoiled person and to be out in nature more by working with Logan. There were a lot of crops to farm and endless work. This work helped Janie forget her heartbreak and it gave her time to think. Logan is also a good advice giver, with his own perspective on love, so when Janie talks about acts of love, such as trimming toenails. This is compared to Logan's acts of love such as doing all the farm chores. All in all, living in Logan's house played a big role in Janie's life.

Answers

Answer:

‘The Lottery’ and ‘Harrison Bergeron’, two short stories depicting dystopian ways of life were written in the mid-twentieth century just after the second world war and in the midst of the fight for equality in western civilization. These stories display commonalities and differences in areas such as their authoritarian atmosphere, perceptions of equality, and based on their general arch and themes. To begin, the two stories parallel in the government ruling and corresponding atmosphere. Both stories have an authoritarian government in place with a strong set of rules regulated by methods of control and propaganda. Within ‘The Lottery’ for example, the governing body established an annual randomized public execution under the guise of it being a sacrifice for the crops.

I need 2 paragraph about the road not taken and 20 years after it need to look like an Explanatory essay

Answers

Answer:

hope it helps :)

Explanation:

The poem, “The Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost states that in life we come upon many decisions, and there are points where we have to let fate take the lead. “The Road Not Taken” uses two paths as a symbol of a life decision. To understand this poem you have to have understanding of life’s meaning. The author helps us better understand the message by his use of tone and literary devices such as metaphors and symbolism. In this poem we come to realize that life is a combination of decisions and fate. The two paths symbolize the life of the traveler and all his life decisions. This poem expresses life, because in life, there are important decisions that in some instances can make a really big change, sometimes it’s hard to find your way out of something, and there are many possible ways you can do it.

“Then took the other, as just as fair, and having perhaps the better claim” are verses where we can clearly see that this is a decision in to which he is putting a lot of thought. Throughout the poem, we learn that there are two paths to take, but the traveler, who we suppose is Robert Frost, is uncertain of which one to take.  We learn that this is really a life decision, and not just a choice between two paths. Towards the end, there is a drastic change of the indecisive tone to a tone of regret.

In this poem there is a line that is “I shall be telling this with a sigh”, Robert Frost shows a sign of regret, meaning he made the wrong decision. Not all decisions have to be clearly thought out or over-thought. In our lives sometimes we make some wrong decisions too. By depending on time we can’t really lookup that why we made mistake. In this scenario we have to be more careful about our decision. The road we chooses is full of challenges and needs to be explored. In the beginning we think we would choose a better path than previous path, but the road never seemed to end. What we decide today is going to affect our future. Sometimes the decisions we make can be wrong but that is way better than standing and not choosing anything.

In this poem “The Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost state that the roads are considered to be a symbol of his life decisions. The fact the Frost chose to use this symbol to portray the message makes us have a clear idea of what he is going through. Towards the end of the poem, signs of regret shows, how in life a decision can really impact your life and who you become as a person. By the end of the poem, we have learned that the difficulty of choices is that sometimes you really have to let fate take the lead. Those paths shows that it doesn’t matter which side has been taken more but which is the best one for you.

Life is made up of choices. The choices people make in their lifetime not only shape their life, but they can make or break it. Every once in a while a person is offered a monumental decision that will decide the path of their entire life. Still, knowing a choice needs to be made does not make it easy to decide. In this line, “sorry…could not travel both”, Robert Frost does not know which road to take, what decision to make. He only knows that he cannot travel both. However, indecision is part of the beauty of life. Some of the best choices are result of careful thought. A person does not always have to take the road of the ones before them; they can take an entirely new path with an unknown future. We have to be observant and to choose the correct path among the various paths life sets in our way.

Robert Frost states that “ I took the one less travelled by, and that has make all the difference”, The poem felt very connected to me as I have also had some difficult times choosing the correct way or option in my life. One of those decisions was coming to CityTech which I am sure I will never regret. Before coming to this college I had been doing Associate first year in another community college. When I got selected, many of my relatives and friends suggested me not to come here as I was already going to another college. However, I chose to come here although I knew that this way would be full of challenges. Now, I am also sure like the poet that the new challenges and struggles I will have to face here will make a difference in my life. Hence, there are many options in our life and it is obvious to be confused. We should be able to choose the correct path and move forward. Once we choose to travel in one way, we cannot travel  back  in time and choose the next one. So, we should be careful and observant while taking decisions and choose the path which we will not regret.
