Summary of the bicycle by Dash Benhur

As said by Louise J. Kaplan, “Adolescence represents an inner emotional upheaval, a struggle between the eternal human wish to cling to the past and the equally powerful wish to get on with the future”. In the story “The bicycle’’, by Jillian Horton, Hannah is going through her adolescent age which brings a lot of emotional changes in her life. Hannah was a very devoted, ignorant and hard working girl in the start of the story. When she was 15 years old she slowly changed and now wanted to be independent and didn 't like to follow the rules anymore. By the end of the story, she broke all the rules and wanted to follow her heart 's desires. In the story “The bicycle’’, by Jillian Horton, Hannah experiences a transition from an ignorant, obedient and disciplined child to a rebelling, disobedient and independent adolescent.…show more content…

Hannah was ignorant about the world around her and was only concentrated on learning the piano and dreaming about becoming a concert pianist. “[Hannah] dreamed of [herself] in flowing dresses with [her] long black hair grown out to [her] waist and a string of pearls at [her] throat”(horton.1). This shows that Hannah is living in her own world with her hopes and dreams. Hannah realized that she has a great talent and she can become a famous concert pianist one day. Hannah believed when Tant Rose said “ If [she] made a few sacrifices and worked hard [she] would be famous’’(1). Hannah was a very hard worker and by working night and day she became very good at playing the piano. Hannahs talent was shown in the story when it was said that “[she] was playing the music of Beethoven and Liszt with proficiency’’(1). Therefore all these statements show that Hannah was a very devoted ignorant and hard working girl at the start of the New age.

A writer is using the following excerpt to write a paper about variety in bird species:

excerpt adapted from What Is That Bird?
by the US Fish and Wildlife Service

Learning the basic form and structure, or morphology, of a bird will help you to make comparisons of birds. Concentrate on the shape and size of the beak, including the relative size of the upper and lower beak; length of the outer tail feathers, upper flight feathers, and throat; and the coloration of the crown and breast. It will also help you to think about the types of habitat in which you are most likely to find specific birds, since the birds that you see may be migratory and will only be in your area at a specific time of the year.

Which sentence should the writer revise to include an in-text citation?

these are the answer choices

Bird-watching novices might be impressed by just how many different species of birds there are. Birds come in a wide range of shapes, sizes, and colors. Some of the most important bird features include the shape of the beak, the length of various feathers, and the coloration of the bird’s crown. Bird biology has a lot to do with these differing characteristics, since most bird features serve at least one purpose in the animals’ lives.

Interpreting a Weather Map
Since there is a lot of information to display but not a lot of room, symbols are used on weather maps to convey information. You have seen some of these symbols already.

On this map, H and L are used to show areas of high and low pressure. The isobars, or lines around them, connect areas of equal pressure. Isobars look a lot like contour lines on topographic maps, but isobars connect areas of equal air pressures instead of elevation.

Notice that around the center of an L, pressure increases as the bars move away from the center. It’s the opposite around an H; pressure decreases farther away from the center.
