Answer:
told from the point of view of Ben Benally, Abel's roommate in the apartment in Los Angeles. It is the day after Abel—badly beaten by unknown assailants and left in a ditch on the beach—has left Los Angeles to return to Walatowa. Ben remembers going up on a hill in the city with many Indians the night before. The group, which included Tosamah and Cristobal Cruz, started playing songs and dancing while Abel and Ben went off by themselves. Abel and Ben made a pact to meet sometime in the future, just the two of them and two horses among the hills, and to sing the song called "House Made of Dawn."
Ben gradually reveals the events of the prior weeks. We learn that Abel had been drinking far too much and finally quit working at the factory to spend all his time at bars. One evening, over a poker game at Tosamah's, Abel became so enraged with Tosamah that he tried to hit him. Abel was too drunk, however, and merely stumbled, provoking laughs from the others in the room.
From that point on, Abel descended further into drunkenness and poverty until he had a fight with Ben and left the apartment. Abel and Ben had been mugged by a corrupt local cop earlier that week, and Ben implies that Abel was perhaps intending some sort of revenge when he left the apartment. Regardless of whether or not Ben's guess is correct, Abel returns to the apartment three days later, crashing to the floor of the stairwell, badly beaten and seemingly close to death

What is one fact that viewers learn from the voice-over narration? a. the date and location of the documentary b. Craig's reason for making the trip c. the name of the man being interviewed d. the ages of the child laborers
Hello. You did not inform the documentary to which this question refers, which does not allow me to tell you an exact answer. However, the use of voice-over narration is constantly performed as a technique to expose a subject with the aim of generating reflection, dissemination and often appealing to the emotional side of viewers, showing an unfair or emotional situation, for example. Following this reasoning, the letter D may be the answer to your question, since working children is a reflexive situation.

Read the resolution. Which statement best conveys a negative position on the resolution? Educational institutions should use a 12-month school year. O A 12-month school year structure is not a good schedule for schools. O Administrators are unsure if using a 12-month school year would be the best idea. O Educational institutions that use a 12-month school year show marked increases in student achievement and learning.

Have you ever been exposed to injustice or seen the ramifications of things that have gone wrong and had no control over them? Do you wonder how things would be if things were different? Sometimes, someone or some people have had to make sacrifices for changes to occur. Those changes may have come through monetary means, casualties, or other ways. Is the price for progress ever too high? Why or why not?
Answer:
Find the explanation below.
Explanation:
1. Yes, I have been exposed to injustice and I have also witnessed the ramifications of things that have gone wrong as a result of it. In my country, the rulers seem to care less about their subjects, leading to a high degree of unemployment, poverty and penury, killings, and crime. Few favorable policies are ever made for the masses while the rulers amass great wealth for themselves.
2. Yes, I sometimes wonder how my country would have been a better place to live in if the rulers cared more for their citizens and made/implemented favorable policies that were in their interests. We would then have good roads, well-equipped hospitals, jobs for the citizens, and fewer crimes.
3. No, the price for progress is never too high. Protests and several other legal means of agitations have been used by the masses to state their concerns. In the process, many have died. Those who have sacrificed their lives for this cause are martyrs because they died for a good cause. Nothing good can come without a price. Such martyrs have their names in the sands of times.

The author wants to insert the following sentence into the passage.
After the transformation, the bicycle seemed different and incomplete to me!
Where is the best place to insert the sentence?
I still remember the day I finally managed to ride a bicycle
on my own. I was about seven years old when my best
friend Graham told me that it was high time I started riding
the bicycle without the training wheels. At that time, I
thought it was a great idea. After all, I was the best kite
runner among my friends and could climb a tree faster than
anyone. So, riding a bicycle would not be such a difficult
task. With the help of my dad, Graham and I took the
training wheels off the bicycle. Now that the moment
had finally arrived, I could feel the butterflies in my
stomach. My legs were shaking, and my hands were sweaty
I gripped the handlebars tightly and stood calmly, ready to
start. Graham held onto the bicycle, and slowly, I started to
paddle. I gradually picked up speed, feeling confident,
because I knew Graham was right behind me, helping me
keep my balance. After some time, looking from the corner
of my eye I realized that Graham had just let go of the
bicycle. Initially, I lost balance for a few seconds, but
after a few encouraging words from Graham, I regained my
confidence. Feeling proud and happy, I rode toward Graham
who was patiently waiting with a big smile on his face.

Read the following poem by John Keats. What type of poem is it?
Bright star! would I were steadfast as thou art—
Not in lone splendour hung aloft the night,
And watching, with eternal lids apart,
Like Nature's patient, sleepless Eremite,
The moving waters at their priest-like task
Of pure ablution round earth's human shores,
Or gazing on the new soft-fallen mask
Of snow upon the mountains and the moors—
No—yet still steadfast, still unchangeable,
Pillow'd upon my fair love's ripening breast,
To feel for ever its soft fall and swell,[xxii]
Awake for ever in a sweet unrest,
Still, still to hear her tender taken breath,
And so live ever—or else swoon to death.

Write a short story, no more than two A4 pages, from the perspective of a 1,000-year-old person. What have they seen over their long life? How do they feel about the world now?
Answer:
I have lived 1.000 years, today is my birthday. I have seen all my relatives born and die many times, they are not like me. I am not sure I want to live any more. I think I had enough. I have seen the appearence of television, radio and the Internet. I have seen how the Internert changed trhough the years. Many years ago we thought it was impossible to receive food through our computers. We never thought our cars could fly like we used to imagine in cartoons and movies. I, personally, never thought when I was around a hundred years old that I could talk to someone just by saying it out loud, without any device.
However, as I said before, I do not want to live anymore. Life has become too technological. We used to aspire being as technological as we could, but now I am not sure it is the best thing. I do not have interactions with humans like I used to, I only communicate with some friends I have made along the way through technology. I miss human interaction. I think I have seen it all and now it is time for me to remember everything I have lived once more and... finally die.
Explanation:
To complete this exercise, you have to write a short story from the perspective of a 1.000 years old person. I wrote about a person that decides it's time to die because he had lived too much, and he explains some of the things he saw through his life and how technology changed it all.

Answer:
Own society
Explanation:
(This is just an example, feel free to edit :))
If I were to create my own society, I would assign a democracy. This way, the country would be relativly progressive compared to most countries. Citizens would participate in voting rights and wrongs. Of course, like any place, we would have flaws. However, through this democracy, people would be able to change it for the better. (sorry for spelling errors, I can't spell for the life of me lol)

O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done;
The ship has weather'd every rack, the prize we sought is won;
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring:
But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;
Rise up for you the flag is flung-for you the bugle trills;
For you bouquets and ribbon'd wreaths-for you the shores a-crowding;
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning;
Here Captain! dear father!
This arm beneath your head;
It is some dream that on the deck,
You've fallen cold and dead.
My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still;
My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will;
The ship is anchor'd safe and sound, its voyage closed and done;
From fearful trip, the victor ship, comes in with object won;
Exult, O shores, and ring, O bells!
But I, with mournful tread,
Walk the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
In one paragraph of at least three to five sentences, analyze the imagery in the stanza in
bold. Identify the mood the author intended to create with this imagery, as well as the
connotations used in the diction. Use proper spelling and grammar. (10 points)
The author intended to create a bittersweet mood. Though the overseas trip has ended, and there is a happy crowd waiting for the ship to dock, the captain, who is the narrator's father, is dead. The vocabulary and phrases used, like exulting, the prize we sought is won, eager faces, etc, describe happiness. But phrases like cold and dead, pale and still, and mournful tread, describe death, making the poem's mood bittersweet.

Think of a school trip that you have been on. Choose three aspects of the trip and consider their positive points, negative points and what changes you would recommend. Then write your report. Make sure you give the purpose of the report in the introduction and conclude by saying how successful you think the trip was overall.
Answer:
The school trip chosen was the trip to visit a grape field.
Explanation:
School trips are very useful and appreciated by me, because it allows students to have access to another environment and allows everyone to learn something that is being seen in practice, which makes learning more special. The trip that my biology class made to a grape field, fulfilled this objective and therefore it must be reported.
The farm was very beautiful and had a very pleasant smell, which made the class very special, relaxed and even relaxed. At the time, we can learn some concepts relevant to agriculture, such as how fertilization, planting, seed development, the calculation of necessary water, the climate and the entire installation needed for this crop to be productive were made. In addition to the biological concepts, we had access to the economic concepts of this practice, which clarified many things for us. Nevertheless, we also had contact with the concepts of harvesting, processing, storage, shipping and sale, which made the class complete and rich in information.
I do not believe that this trip had relevant negative points and that it prevented it from being a promising and efficient class, if I have to mention some negative point, the distance between our school and the farm that was very big and left the trip very tiring.
