It was a lazy Sunday afternoon. The sun was blazing over the roof, baking us all like cookies in an oven. I was lying on the sofa reading an old book. I was home alone because my mom had gone to her friend's wedding. She had asked me to come along. But who would want to step out in the scorching heat? The only activity worth doing on a hot afternoon is to read a good book while sipping lemonade. I had just begun to enjoy the book when there was loud knock on the front door. I looked up and wondered if it were a robber, a salesperson, or just the next-door lady looking for sugar. Our neighbors were funny people. They would run out of things at the weirdest hours.

People of today are selfish and greedy. Write your opinion​

Answers

Answer: You can say peole are greedy because most of them have a me first mentality and explain more. Then you can say they are selfish becasue people aren't polite and help they only benifit themselfs. And they are greedy because they take from you but don't give back or something. Let me know if I can change something

Explanation:

Why are so many people nasty, selfish, and unpleasant?

    I agree that there are a lot of greedy and selfish people, about 60% of the world's population. Everybody may see that even in many charming fairy stories they have at least one antagonist. I believe there are two sorts of selfish people, namely people who actually have to perform egotistical things because of their survival and who never have the feeling. As you can see, there are two reasons why individuals are selfish, greedy, and uneasy. There are motives for survival and avarice. But every reason isn't good enough to be egotistical, since I think this world will be full of peace, love, and happiness if we are all selfish and kind. Moreover, today's youth can see the egotism and materialism of their children. Many youths, particularly those from industrialized nations, affluent backgrounds, and nuclear families can be imitated by their protecting parents. This hidden parenting can lead to the self-centered, self-centered growth of young people, who look after themselves and care for themselves. A Pew Research study has shown that over 65% of young people in the United States and the EU believe that the money is vital since they may use money to buy goods or make themselves more attractive to satisfy their daily needs. However, it is disturbing that more than 68% of the youth interviewed acknowledged they were not willing to work hard to obtain their money. Younger generations nowadays might be selfish, greedy and hungry since they are reluctant to complete their job. Pressure on parents to invite and luxuriate their children in every possible club for pace is just an indication of a sense of egotism established in the previous decade. And society as a whole pays for it, not only children suffer. They're not. They're not. But opponents could say that self-help among people, particularly young folks, has become a new trend in giving to charities or volunteers overseas. However, voluntary work can only be one way for many students and working people to become more visible and more "constructed." Substantial reason, behind their 'species of acts,' cannot be termed altruistic people, but they can only be viewed as greedy and egotistic. Lastly, greed and egotism may now distinguish people from others. Many individuals, especially young, are showing how gullible and self-conscious we are, with a ruthless behavior to exploit natural resources and egoistic attitudes. Devastating disasters and tragedies of nature caused by apathy and selfishness remind people of the harmfulness of greed and egotism. The good of mankind and the peace of our society are the prerogative of everyone to become more selfless and caring individuals.

Define irony in your own words. What are the three types of Irony? Give an example of each type of irony.

Answers

Answer:

allocated narratives Irony is a way for a character to communicate his or her humor; it is typically expressed in a sarcastic manner, implying the inverse of what is stated. Irony is classified into three types: verbal, situational, and dramatic. The tale " Orientation " has verbal irony as a result of the character teaching how to operate the microwave. The short tale " The Guest " employs situational irony when the protagonist stays in the barn with the prisoner. The short tale " Good Country People " employs dramatic irony when the viewer learns what Mrs. Hopewell thinks of her employees. Irony is defined as a character's expression of humor.

Every person is complitely unique Speech​

Everything in this world has a purpose. It might seem worthless, but the fact is that everyone plays a vital role in this Earth. People should appreciate what they have and always be grateful. As human beings, we are different in many ways. We are all created by the same God, but we do have some variations. Not all things are perfect, adorable and probably the best. But trust me; there is only that one thing that makes one to be exceptional, regardless of a family background and other problems. Everyone is unique and gifted in some way.I have learned not to judge a book by its cover as the chapters of the book and the author might be wonderful as one gets to know more about it. All things in the past do not determine the future. It takes courage to stand up and fight for what you want. Having the ability to win the battle is the most precious thing. One might be physically taken for granted because of height, race and appearance, only to find that the motive is to serve the purpose, obviously doing all that with great pleasure. Attitude and behaviour can take a person to places that they have never been. It also takes a positive mind-set to fulfil the dreams as well as what the heart desires. In life, we should stand together to turn the world into a better place that will be meaningful.

As Clover looked down the hillside her eyes filled with tears. If she could have spoken her thoughts, it would have been to say that this was not what they had aimed at when they had set themselves years ago to work for the overthrow of the human race. These scenes of terror and slaughter were not what they had looked forward to on that night when old Major first stirred them to rebellion. If she herself had had any picture of the future, it had been of a society of animals set free from hunger and the whip, all equal, each working according to his capacity, the strong protecting the weak, as she had protected the lost brood of ducklings with her foreleg on the night of Major’s speech.

Read the passage.

The cost of health care is rising in America. The amount that an average family must pay for insurance has increased by 3 percent in just two years. For families buying insurance on an exchange or privately, the increase is an astounding 25 percent. At this rate, health care, which includes visits to a typical family doctor, specialists for anything from a knee injury to cancer, and the emergency room, will be unaffordable for most Americans in 10 years or sooner. I know this because my family is an average American family—and we are worried.

Which statement describes the claim?

The writer’s family is an average American family struggling to pay for health care.
