The Persistent Gardener
It was Jilly's last day in the green house. Summer was coming to an end and so was the growing season. School would be starting next week and the fall plants were well enough along to allow Mrs. T. to manage the greenhouses herself. As Jilly worked the plants for the last time, she tried to focus on the new school year instead of the details of the greenhouse. It had been a hard, hot summer, but Jilly was not ready for it to be over.
Jilly moved down the tables, tucking a stray hair behind her ear with a gloved and already dirty hand. She'd repotted the last of the rosemary plants and mixed a new batch of potting soil already. Mrs. T. now had enough potting soil to last her through September. Jilly looked at a couple of maiden-hair ferns that were beginning to yellow in their small pots. She loved their lacey fronds and had grown concerned over the last few days that they needed repotting or a boost of fertilizer. She had also worried that she would continue to find chores that needed doing, plants that needed help, right up until the minute she left today. She hated unfinished things. She hated details not being tended to.
The sun had been above the trees and blasting the greenhouse for a good hour now. Jilly listened for the familiar whirr of the automatic vents opening. When the greenhouse reached a certain temperature, the vents would open automatically. The vents would have a cooling effect for an hour or so, and then no amount of breeze would put a dent in the heat. Mrs. T. often claimed Jilly must be part reptile as she was able to work longer in the greenhouse than anyone else. The heat just didn't bother her. In fact, Jilly often looked forward to the warmth of the greenhouse and feeling the heat seep into her bones. It felt good to her, but she understood others who found it hard to breathe in 100 degree temperatures.
Jilly heard the greenhouse door bang, and looked up from her ferns to see Mrs. T. walking down the aisle with a tray of young plants. Mums, Jilly supposed, the flowers everyone wants for fall. She had helped Mrs. T. take cuttings and plant the small stems in new pots. They were doing nicely from the look of things.
"We will keep these in here for now," said Mrs. T. "They are getting too much rain outside."
It had been a rainy couple of days. Jilly knew, as well as anyone, that overwatering could kill potted plants quickly.
"Do you remember when I overwatered those mint plants?" Jilly asked Mrs. T.
"I used to think no one could kill a mint plant," Mrs. T. said, laughing.
"Well I am full of surprises, apparently," Jilly replied. Jilly remembered the sad green plants that just kept looking more and more wilted no matter how much water she gave them. It was a beginner's mistake, and Jilly had been so embarrassed for making it.
"That you are," replied Mrs. T. "But I know you learned a lesson you won't ever forget."
"Of course. Herbs like their roots damp, not flooded," Jilly answered.
"Well that is not the lesson I was thinking of," Mrs. T. said.
Jilly wondered for a minute what the lesson could be. She straightened the rows of geraniums in front of her, picking up one or two to check for aphids under the leaves. It had been a summer full of lessons, some especially hard for a girl who thought she knew a lot about plants. She breathed deeply the warm, humid air. She hated the cooped up feeling of air conditioned air, the feeling of being cut off from the sun. She knew school and the library would offer only these uncomfortable feelings and little time to spend in the sun or with plants. She had come to understand this over the summer-her need to be around growing things was huge.
"I'm not sure, Mrs. T." she said, "I've learned so much this summer. I couldn't possibly say what you are thinking."
"You did learn many lessons, Jilly. You knew so much when you started. You've gone farther than any other assistants I've had. I will miss you."
"And I will miss you," Jilly replied. "Thank you for the opportunity and the job." Jilly watched Mrs. T. put the tray of mums down on the center row of tables. Wearing her familiar brown apron, Mrs. T. looked just as she had on Jilly's first day.
"My pleasure, of course, dear," Mrs. T. replied. "My hope for you, as for all my assistants over the years, is that you will learn as much about yourself as you do about growing plants."
Recalling her thoughts all morning, about what she enjoyed about her summer job, Jilly realized she knew much more than just how to not drown the mint.
Which line from the text best describes how Jilly feels about her job? (5 points)
a
It had been a hard, hot summer, but Jilly was not ready for it to be over.
b
It was a beginner's mistake, and Jilly had been so embarrassed for making it.
c
Jilly realized she knew much more than just how to not drown the mint.
d

What is the exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution of the book White Fang?
What is the analysis of the book White Fang?
What is the Theme of White Fang?
What are some theme examples of the book White Fang?
Please answer these questions, I really need help on this. The book is called White Fang. White fang is written by Jack London. This is the cover of White Fang (the cover is attached to this question) :
Answer: White Fang starts with two men who are out in the wilds of the north with their dogs. The dogs are lured away by a she-wolf and eaten. One of the men, Bill, uses a gun to try and save the rest of the dogs, but he too is eaten. Only two dogs and the other man, Henry, remain. They are saved when another group shows up. The she-wolf, called Kiche, moves on as the famine demands that she continue to look for food. She mates with one of the wolves in the pack, One-Eye, and has a litter of pups, but only one survives after several famines hit the pack. His name is White Fang. The she-wolf is actually half-dog and half-wolf and is "owned" by an Indian named Gray Beaver in one of the villages. He sells her to another Indian but keeps White Fang. White Fang is bullied by the other dogs in the village and one, called Lip-Lip, is especially mean and even savagely attacks him. White Fang is forced to become more and more vicious, and Gray Beaver encourages this behavior. He then goes to Fort Yukon and sells White Fang to Beauty Smith, who is a terrible man. Smith abuses him and uses White Fang in the dogfighting ring to make money. Until one day White Fang is badly injured by a bulldog. A kind man, named Weedon Scott, saves White Fang and takes him back to California with him. Scott shows White Fang nothing but love, kindness, and patience. Eventually, White Fang comes to love Scott and his family and would do anything to protect them. Matt, the musher and a friend of Scott, feeds White Fang and works him on the sled every day. One day, the criminal Jim Hall escapes from a nearby prison and tries to attack Scott's father (Judge Scott). White Fang saves him, and the family is overjoyed. White Fang continues to live out his life full of happiness with Scott's family, and even has pups with Collie, Scott's other dog.

Read the excerpt from the article Amazing Plants:
There are some plants alive today that were living when the pyramids were being built. It may not be pretty, and it might not grow to an impressive size, but the Welwitchia mirabilis, or desert onion, can live for thousands of years. It appears small and scrawny, with only a couple of leaves at one time. The round fruit it produces is edible and apparently tasty when prepared correctly. The baobab tree is one of the longest-lived trees in the world. The baobab, also known as the water bottle tree, stores thousands of liters of water in its massive trunk.

Write one long paragraph discussing how Salva's character changed through the course of the book. Focus on his on early, middle and late character developments. The is from the book 'A long walk to water'.
Salva Dut is based on a real person, and one of the two main characters in A Long Walk to Water. Both in the book and in real life, Salva grows up in a small, south Sudanese village. At the age of eleven, he’s forced to flee his village to avoid the ongoing civil war in his country. Salva spends much of the next decade of his life wandering across the country with other refugees, trying to find a safe place to live. Throughout the novel, Salva is a model of bravery and steadfastness. He is often terrified by what he experiences in Sudan—at one point even witnessing the murder of his own uncle—but he manages to summon the courage to carry on and the strength to survive. As he grows up, Salva begins to feel a desire to help others, not just himself. While in Sudan, he leads more than one thousand Lost Boys to a refugee camp. He stays in multiple refugee camps in different countries before being adopted by an American couple in Rochester, New York. As a young man, Salva reunites with his father, Marien Dut Ariik, and feels inspired to found a nonprofit organization to help struggling villages in his country. The organization, called Water for South Sudan, has brought clean drinking water to over three hundred Sudanese villages since 2003. A Long Walk to Water is the story of how Salva survives civil war in his country and grows into a young man and a leader with a strong desire to help those in need
♡....hope this helps you....♡
Answer:
A Long Walk to Water is a novel by Linda Sue Park. This novel is about Salva, an eleven-year -old Sudanese boy who grows up in South Sudan. Later in the novel he has faced challenges one wouldn’t dream of facing, over a long period of time. He has learned, if one helps other people, those people will then help more people, which will result in more happiness in the world. He is a round character who changes throughout the novel. Salva is a different person at the end of the book. He has gone from hearing his death journey to fighting for survival to helping transform people’s lives forever.
Early in the novel, Salva is clearly terrified, but still strong emotionally. Salva, courage and hopeful. Has started his life by hearing a gun shot,…show more content…
He is more confident and has taken more leadership for his group. For example, later in the book Salva saw his Uncle. The text on page 32 says: “Salva turned. His mouth fell open in amazement, but he could not speak.” This reveals the painfulness to keep walking without anyone he knew besides him. Further on, Salva couldn’t believe his eyes. Salva, the fortunate light, finally sees his shiny way through the boiling and dusty road. To one of his family members. If one looks closely through the lenses of place, one could sense the joy Salva had inside him. He felt blessed. He felt beatific. Later on, Salva lost everyone he cherished on his trip. Eternally. Salva, a joyful child, received atrocious. He is vigorous by just pushing the negativity of his mind. Starting giving his feelings out to everyone. The author wrote, “There is no one left to help me. They think I am weak and useless. Salva lifted his head proudly. They are wrong, and I will show them.” This shows Salva being determined not to quit. Moreover, not weaknesses overtaking him. This also reveals that this step has taken real courage, like the 1st person skydiving in earth. If one looks closely through the lens of time, one could see how hard it is for a kid to still survive through all the losses that have impacted him. This is mainly in the middle of the book; how hard it feels to fight

There are very significant things missing in the movies; Winky the house elf is completely missing altogether, Rita Skeeter isn't as important as she was in the books, LUDO BAGMAN IS ALSO MISSING ALTOGETHER etc.
