Match the underlined words to their meanings based on their context in this excerpt from Charles Dickens’s A Christmas Carol.
A terrible voice in the hall cried, “Bring down Master Scrooge’s box, there!” and in the hall appeared the schoolmaster himself, who glared on Master Scrooge with a ferocious condescension, and threw him into a dreadful state of mind by shaking hands with him. He then conveyed him and his sister into the veriest old well of a shivering best-parlour that ever was seen, where the maps upon the wall, and the celestial and terrestrial globes in the windows, were waxy with cold. Here he produced a decanter of curiously light wine, and a block of curiously heavy cake, and administered instalments of those dainties to the young people: at the same time, sending out a meagre servant to offer a glass of “something” to the postboy, who answered that he thanked the gentleman, but if it was the same tap as he had tasted before, he had rather not. Master Scrooge’s trunk being by this time tied on to the top of the chaise, the children bade the schoolmaster good-bye right willingly; and getting into it, drove gaily down the garden-sweep: the quick wheels dashing the hoar-frost and snow from off the dark leaves of the evergreens like spray.

In your experience, how important is it to listen to other people's wisdom before you make you own decision? Does listening to others help us make better choices, or does it keep us from taking risks? The Monkeys Paws

Answers

Answer:

In my opinion, listening to other people's wisdom is quite significant when making an important decision. However, what is difficult to find out is the reason behind that piece of advise. Some people might discourage you because of jealousy and to control you, while some others might truly have the best intention to help. However, it is sensible for us to determine who we listen to and whose advice to follow.

"Here is your part: at break of day tomorrow home with you, go mingle with our princes.
The swineherd later on will take me down

your springing heart, no matter what I suffer,
no matter if they pull me by the heels
or practice shots at me, to drive me out.
Look on, hold down your anger."

Which of these describes a line graph?
O A. Bars lined up in a single row
B. Lines intersecting at a right angle
O C. Points on an axis connected to form a line
D. Different lines forming a wedge

Answers

Answer: C

Explanation:

The statement that best describes a line graph is that the points on an axis are connected to form a line. Thus, the correct option for this question is C.

What is the significance of a line graph?

The significance of a line graph is determined by the fact that it is commonly used to display change over time as a series of data points connected by straight-line segments on two axes.

The line graph also helps to determine the relationship between two sets of values, with one data set always being dependent on the other set.

Line graphs can be used to express how something may alter over a specific period of time. These types of graphs are good for plotting data that has peaks (ups) and valleys (downs), or that was collected in a short time period.

Therefore, the statement that best describes a line graph is that the points on an axis are connected to form a line. Thus, the correct option for this question is C.

what conflic does percy jackson face in chapter 2 of the book Percy Jackson And The Lighting Thife

Answers

Answer:

As chapter two begins, Percy's main challenge appears to be the disintegration of his reality. He begins to question his sanity because no one else seems to know who Mrs. Dodds is.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Dodds seems to have been replaced by a Mrs. Kerr, whom Percy has never seen before. To make matters worse, Grover is not able to hide the fact that he remembers Mrs. Dodds and her attack on Percy in chapter one. Percy realizes that everyone is lying to him. At night, he has nightmares about Mrs. Dodds sporting "talons and leathery wings."

Because of his stress, Percy's grades suffer. Essentially, Percy's reality has been disrupted by supernatural events beyond his control. He feels alone, unsure, and frightened. Above all, he misses his mother but knows that he must try to finish out his term at school.

Later, however, Mr. Brunner tells Percy that he must leave Yancy. This adds to Percy's distress. His only comfort is that Grover is taking the same bus into Manhattan. The chapter ends with Percy facing an unknown threat from three old ladies who are knitting a giant pair of socks.

So, Percy's main challenges in chapter two arise from the supernatural events that have contributed to the disintegration of his reality.

Explanation:

Answer:

He is faced with everybody telling him that Mrs. Dodds doesn't exist and he is questioning his sanity a bit. because of it.

‘If you could take any animal from the zoo home as a pet, which would you choose—and why?’ How do you think your family would react? (Provide at least (3) reasons with specific details, to support your answer)

Answers

Answer: if i could take home any animal from the zoo it would be a elephant! i would take home a elephant because they are such beautiful animals and they are so endangered, so i want to save them! they also would double as a ride to school! i think my family would be very intrigued, i think my parents would be a little upset because he might smell. i think my sibling would be thrilled to have our very own pet elephant!

Explanation:

Here's how I imagine my family would react if I chose to bring home an animal from the zoo as a pet:

1. Surprise and Excitement

2. initial thrill

3. Practical considerations

My family will initially be shocked by my decision and will probably feel excited. They will be surprised because adopting a zoo animal as a pet is not a decision they usually make. After the initial thrill has worn off, my family will probably raise concerns about the safety and care of the chosen animal. They will take into account such things as the animal's size, behavior and special demands.

My family will also take into account the practical implications of owning such a creature. They will consider any modifications that will need to be made to our living conditions, such as available space, permissions and possible legal barriers.

Yes for the most part

Explanation:

It is not uncommon for people today to follow the latest trends in fashion. They do this simply because of the "fear of missing out" (FOMO) on the latest patterns of expressions.

For example, someone who excessively feels good about himself and wants others to recognize him or her may put on spotty colors such as red, pink, blue. The color of someone's dress would reveal an element of the individual's personality and disposition.
