THE VOYAGES OF DOCTOR DOLITTLE
By Hugh Lofting
Chapter 1: The Cobbler's Son
My name was Tommy Stubbins, son of Jacob Stubbins, the cobbler of Puddleby-on-the-Marsh; and I was nine and a half years old. At that time Puddleby was only quite a small town. A river ran through the middle of it; and over this river there was a very old stone bridge, called Kingsbridge, which led you from the market-place on one side to the churchyard on the other.
Sailing-ships came up this river from the sea and anchored near the bridge. I used to go down and watch the sailors unloading the ships upon the river-wall. The sailors sang strange songs as they pulled upon the ropes; and I learned these songs by heart. And I would sit on the river-wall with my feet dangling over the water and sing with the men, pretending to myself that I too was a sailor.
For I longed always to sail away with those brave ships when they turned their backs on Puddleby Church and went creeping down the river again, across the wide lonely marshes to the sea. I longed to go with them out into the world to seek my fortune in foreign lands—Africa, India, China and Peru! When they got round the bend in the river and the water was hidden from view, you could still see their huge brown sails towering over the roofs of the town, moving onward slowly—like some gentle giants that walked among the houses without noise. What strange things would they have seen, I wondered, when next they came back to anchor at Kingsbridge! And, dreaming of the lands I had never seen, I'd sit on there, watching till they were out of sight.
Which element of the description of Puddleby is most significant to the plot of the story so far? (5 points)
That it had a marketplace and a cemetery
That it had an old stone bridge named for a king
That a river ran through the middle of it
That it was quite small in size
Answer:
That it had an old stone bridge named for a king
Cause = wireless-device use Effects = both positive and negative for teens Based on the sample outline, which thesis is the most effective for this essay? 1. Positive effects: Example of increased freedom Example of increased safety O Teenagers are often seen using wireless devices, but the effects are mostly positive. There are positive and negative effects to every new development in technology. O Many teenagers have access to wireless devices, and the effects are both positive and negative. Not all teenagers have access to wireless devices, so not everyone is effected by them. • Negative effects: Example of spreading negative info Anecdote about distraction Intro ✓ Done 5 of 10
Answer: Many teenagers have access to wireless devices, and the effects are both positive and negative.
Explanation:
The thesis topic must be one that shows that the effects of using wireless devices are both positive and negative. It should also mention as well as generalize the number of teens using such devices as the research did not mention the number of teens using said devices.
The only option that ticks both boxes is that "many teenagers have access to wireless devices, and the effects are both positive and negative" so this should be the correct answer.
Use these phrases to make sentences of your own. keep a record
Answer:
I was asked to keep a record of all the attendees of the seminar by the organizing committee.
Explanation:
Phrases are words, short groups of words that are used to refer to something else. They cannot be taken in the literal sense and maybe a means to refer to something else.
The phrase "keep a record" means to keep certain information safe.
So, making a sentence using the phrase "keep a record" is-
I was asked to keep a record of all the attendees of the seminar by the organizing committee.
Carmen is writing a personal narrative about volunteering at the community center. She has listed the important parts of her story. – Decided to volunteer at the community center – Taught an art class to first- and second-graders – Asked Janet to help me think of ideas for projects – Used clay and finger paints – Made recycled-bottle masks – Worked with kids who were messy and sometimes hard to deal with – Thought it was rewarding and fun to help people – Had an unforgettable experience Which part should Carmen include in the introduction section of her outline as part of her thesis? Made recycled-bottle masks Used clay and finger paints Asked Janet to help me think of ideas for projects Thought it was rewarding and fun to help people
Answer:
Thought it was rewarding and fun to help people.
Explanation:
The sentence selected above would be ideal only to be placed in the introduction of Carmen's personal narrative, because it determines an appropriate thesis statement to show her position in relation to volunteer work, as well as supporting her justification for engaging in this type of activity.
Furthermore, among the response options presented, this is the only one that can be added to the introduction in a coherent and cohesive way, with the other options being more appropriate for the body of the narrative.
We must not forget that the thesis statement is usually part of the end of the introduction and presents the author's opinion and position in relation to something.
Answer:
Which part should Carmen include in the introduction section of her outline as part of her thesis?

does she have to call him( into passive)
Answer:
Is he has to be called by her?
Explanation:
Active voice is when the subject acts upon the verb. In other words, active voice is when the subject is at the front of the sentence.
On the other hand, passive voice is when the subject is the receiver of the verb. This means that the subject is placed after the verb in the sentence.
The given sentence "does she have to call him?" can be changed into the passive voice as
Is he has to be called by her?
Here, the "does" in the active voice becomes nonexistent in the passive voice, being replaced by the helping verbs "is/am/are" in the new sentence.

The story on online
Kath is… mean, governmental, oppresses, and has a careless attitude
Mean:
"So, Helen, do you play an instrument?” She put such a sneer in her voice that everyone at the table fell silent, waiting to see how this new kid would react.
When Helen spoke, her voice was very quiet. ,”No,” she said, “No instrument. I just sing.”
Kath snorted. "Sing! No choir in this school. Guess you’re out of luck.”
Comment: Kath here is shown as a mean individual who is trying to lower the dignity of Helen, or in this case Mouse. As the story mentions she put a “sneer in her voice”, meaning that that she made it in a mocking way or tone a voice.
Governmental:
1. "What is that Mouse doing at our table?" Kath said loudly, so Helen would know she had already broken one of the most important rules. No one sat at Kath's table without an invitation.
2. Kath stood up then, to signal that the eating part of lunch was over. Everyone else at the table picked up their trays, following her like robots.
3. Helen hesitated, then did what Kath said.
Comments: In the first quote Kath asks what Mouse is doing at the table because no other person in the school sits at the table with her unless they have an invitation from her. However, Mouse is new and doesn’t know those rules. Even so, after stating this question Mouse sits at the table anyways perhaps hoping to gain friendship, to change Kath’s mind. Still, the rule imposed by Kath has not changed, no one can sit at the table without an invitation from her. This shows Katy’s dictator side, her governmental side. She want to rule or dominate people around her.
On the second quote when Kath stood up, everyone else did. The other students copied her like robots or mere infants that don’t know their way through life. This shows Kathe’s influence and dictatorship over the students.
On the third quote we can see that even Helen obeys Kath. Her influence is so powerful that even she proceeds to obey her.
Careless attitude:
"Who made you the queen of the world?” I yelled at Kath in the driveway.
She didn't even bother to get angry. She just gave me a look that made me feel cold all over and said, "It doesn’t matter, does it? I just am, so you better get used to it,” and walked away.
Comment: Kath doesn’t care for her brothers words. She does what she wants and proceeds to do them how she wants them.
Oppresses:
I knew something was up in gym the next day the way Kath and her friends came out of the change room, giggling. Then Amanda asked Ms. Saro to help her find some goal gloves in the storage room. As soon as they disappeared Kath shot a soccer ball at Helen, hard. Helen dodged as Jen opened the gym door behind her. The ball flew out. “Oops,” Jen said. "I think I'll help look for those goal gloves.”
Helen stood near the open door.
"Go get the ball, you klutz," Kath ordered. "It’s getting cold in here.”
Comments: Here we can see the dark nature of Kath. Kath is very disrespectful and mean to Helen. She oppresses Helen, she wants to humiliate her to the extreme.
Mouse is… Honest, has pride in what she does, is respectful and responsible
Honest:
"Who's Robyn, Mouse?” Kath asked.
Helen ducked her head like she’d been hit. “I don’t know.”
"Where'd you get the backpack then?”
Helen kept her head down. "At a garage sale," she said.
Comment: Even if it means getting laughed at Helen doesn’t care, she is honest and tells the truth about her back pack. She doesn’t tell a white lie or tell half the truth. She is brutally honest.
Has pride in what she does:
Voice is good for someone who moves a lot. I guess we won’t move much now that we're in Torbay. The instrument is free and it isn’t hard to move.” She smiled, as if this were an old joke. Then she lifted her chin. “Besides, I'm a very good singer." The pride in her voice made her sound completely different. I was so surprised, I just nodded.
Comment: By the way in which she speaks you can tell that Helen is proud to be a singer. Even though others may not be in favor she trusts her parents judgement and is obedient to them. She isn’t ashamed of her gifts or talents, she know that every person has a unique talent. Even though the story does not specify such a thought, surely she must have had this in mind when she has so much pride in her voice.

It is said that a smile is universally understood. And nothing triggers a smile more universally than a taste of sugar. Nearly everyone loves sugar. Infant studies indicate that humans are born with an innate love of sweets. Based on statistics, a lot of people in Great Britain must be smiling because on average, every man, woman, and child in that country consumes 95 pounds of sugar each year.From this passage it seems safe to conclude that the EnglishA. do not know that too much sugar is unhealthy.B. eat desserts at every meal.C. are fonder of sweets than most people.D. have more cavities than any other people.
Answer: C. are fonder of sweets than most people
Explanation:
Option A is incorrect because the passage didn't talk about how eating sugar was unhealthy to the English.
Option B is incorrect because it isn't written that English eat desserts at every meal.
Option D is incorrect because the information given about the English doesn't necessarily mean that they have more cavities than any other people.
Therefore, the correct option is C because the English are fonder of sweets than most people.
pls I need guidelines on how to write a good essay
Answer:
Start by writing a thorough plan. Ensure your essay has a clear structure and overall argument. Try to back up each point you make with a quotation. Answer the question in your introduction and conclusion but remember to be creative too.
Explanation:
Analyze the essay prompt.
Create a thesis statement.
Make an outline.
Begin with the body, not the introduction.
Begin each paragraph with a topic sentence.
Use credible sources.
Don't fake it.
Conclude your essay.
First research your topic. Or if it is some opinion essay, then think about it. Then, prepare a blueprint of your thoughts: you will have many facts or thoughts about your essay, organise where you will place them in your essay. Divide your essay in paragraphs, no more than 7 to 8 lines in a paragraph. Also, always make your first paragraph as introduction and last as conclusion, write all other stuff in between them. Also, a pro tip that if essays are not entirely factual, then the teacher looks for your opinion in the essay, so don't forget to mention it. This doesn't apply to scientific essays, for example you can't write, "Mitochondria is a really good cell organelle, we should respect it."

The Parson's flat or apartment is bigger than Winston's but very messy, Dishes are piled in the sink and the children's toys, books, and clothes are

True
False
Answer:
The Parson's flat or apartment is bigger than Winston's but very messy, Dishes are piled in the sink and the children's toys, books, and clothes are scattered everywhere.
TRUE
Explanation:
'The Parsons' flat was bigger than Winston's, and dingy in a different way. Everything had a battered, trampled-on look, as though the place had just been visited by some large violent animal. Games impedimenta--hockey-sticks, boxing-gloves, a burst football, a pair of sweaty shorts turned inside out--lay all over the floor, and on the table there was a litter of dirty dishes and dog-eared exercise-books. On the walls were scarlet banners of the Youth League and the Spies, and a full-sized poster of Big Brother. There was the usual boiled-cabbage smell, common to the whole building, but it was shot through by a sharper reek of sweat, which--one knew this at the first sniff, though it was hard to say how--was the sweat of some person not present at the moment. In another room someone with a comb and a piece of toilet paper was trying to keep tune with the military music which was still issuing from the telescreen.'

Explanation:
Read the sentence.
Leila stared at the driver of the shiny red convertible stopped in the middle of the intersection, incredulous
that he would stop traffic just to yell at another driver behind him.
What does the use of incredulous connote?
• that Leila is envious of the driver for having a convertible
O that Leila is angry at the driver for stopping in the intersection
• that Leila thinks she might know the driver of the convertible
• that Leila is shocked at what the driver of the convertible did
Answer:
• that Leila is shocked at what the driver of the convertible did
Explanation:
The prefix 'in' means 'not'. The root word 'cred' is of Latin origin and means 'believe'. The combination of the two implies that an incredulous person is one filled with disbelief.
Leila is shocked/filled with disbelief at the scene she has witnessed.
The use of incredulous connote that Leila is shocked at what the driver of the convertible did. Thus, option D is correct.
What is connotation?Any given word or phrase carries a connotation in addition to its denotation, which is its explicit or literal meaning. A connotation is a generally accepted cultural or emotional relationship. Regarding its pleasant or unpleasant emotional link, a connotation is typically classified as either positive or negative.
The word "in" can also signify "not." Cred is a Latin word with the meaning "believe" as its basis. The two together imply that a person who is incredulous is one who is overwhelmed with incredulity. Leila is stunned or in shock about the scene she has seen.
Therefore, we can conclude that option D is correct.
