There are a surprising number of plants that are carnivorous, or feed on meat. One of the most well-known carnivorous plants is the Venus flytrap. This carnivore lives in warm, swampy areas where it feeds on flies and any other insect unfortunate enough to land on one of its round, spiky leaves. The leaves are motion-sensitive, and the slightest touch causes a leaf to snap shut, trapping the prey behind a prison of spikes.
Pitcher plants are another quiet carnivore. The plants are long, pitcher-like tube shapes, with wide bottoms full of water to catch and digest their prey. Pitcher plants use different strategies to attract prey. Some give off sweet smells, while others produce nectar. Pitchers have been known to consume anything from insects to small lizards and rodents.
Select a detail from the excerpt from Amazing Plants that demonstrates that it has a comparison text structure.

It was great! I left a lot less questions blank than I did last time.
find error
Answer:
It was great! I left lesser questions than I did last time.Explanation:
The given sentence contains an error in using two self-contradictory words 'lot' and 'less' back to back which puzzles the meaning of the sentence and affects its readability as well. The sentence contains 'than' which denotes a comparison and it uses the positive word 'great.' Therefore, it will use 'less' in the comparative degree to keep the meaning of the sentence positive conveying that comparatively lesser questions were left unattempted this time. Thus, the comparative degree 'lesser' would be used to rectify the error and establish the comparison between the two ideas.
Answer:
Less should be changed to fewer.
Explanation:
Less is used to describe things that you cannot count or that are measured in bulk, such as water, sand, and time. Fewer is used to describe things that you can count, like cars, people, or books.

You are a talented dancer/ singer and have been selected to represent your
school in an international contest. Write an account of your experience as a
participant in the event.
Answer:
I was so much elated and excited for having been selected to represent the school in the inter-school singing competition. I won the best singer award at the inter-house singing competition. I could do it because I practiced very hard. My teacher also trained me greatly. If she had not taught me the singing tips, I would not have been able to win this much coveted award.
My granny also helped me a lot; she played harmonium while I sang. She taught me how to go up and down the scale; she taught me how to give classical touches to singing. As a result my singing improved considerably. She also taught me how to play harmonium. The judges gave me extra marks for playing the harmonium while singing. The school honored me for bringing laurels to the school. My picture with the trophy appeared in the newspapers. My parents were also proud of me.

D. Education in the United States is improving.
This question is incomplete, because the text was missing.
Here is the text.
Dear teacher, I would like to introduce you to my son, Wind-Wolf. [1] He is probably what you would consider a typical Indian kid. He was born and raised on a reservation. He has black hair, dark brown eyes, olive complexion. And like so many Indian children his age, he is shy and quiet in the classroom. He is 5 years old, in kindergarten, and I can't understand why you have already labeled him a "slow learner." At the age of 5, he has already been through quite an education compared with his peers in Western society. At his first introduction into this world, he was bonded to his mother and to the Mother Earth in a traditional native childbirth ceremony. And he has been continuously cared for by his mother, father, sisters, cousins, uncles, grandparents, and extended tribal family since this ceremony. — Lake, Medicine Grizzlybear. "An Indian Father's Plea" by Medicine Grizzlybear Lake (a/k/a Robert G. Lake-Thom) as appeared in Orion magazine, Autumn 1995. Reprinted by permission of the author.
The correct answer is C. Western society misjudges Native American practices.
Explanation
The text is a letter written by an Indian father who expresses the perception that Western society has about Native Americans and how this has affected his son, who has found it difficult to fit into the traditional teaching of American schools. Additionally, to reinforce his idea by saying that his 5-year-old son has been educated on the reservation by his community about other aspects of life, however, traditional American education had labeled him as "slow learner". According to the above, the correct answer is C. Western society misjudges Native American practices.
Answer: C is correct

In at least 500 words, write a reflective essay on a text or texts you've read that focuses on South Africa. What did you learn and how did the readings change or enlarge your world view? Make sure to reference all of the works you read.
Answer:
South Africa is a country located at the southern tip of Africa. It has had a rich colonial history since the seventeenth century. In 1652 the Dutch arrived who founded a refreshment post on the Cape. After a century and a half of Dutch colonization, the Cape Colony was taken over by the United Kingdom. As a result, a large number of Dutch-speaking settlers, known as Boers, migrated inland with the Great Trek and founded several Boer states, of which the South African Republic and the Orange Free State were ultimately the most important. These republics were conquered by the British in 1902 in the Second Boer War and united together with the Cape Colony and Natal in 1910 to form South Africa. In the 20th century, South Africa was overshadowed by apartheid, a system of racial segregation that systematically disadvantaged the non-white population. In 1990, apartheid was abolished and in 1994 Nelson Mandela was elected South Africa's first black president. It is a country with diverse population groups and eleven official languages, including Afrikaans, which is related to Dutch. The country is a parliamentary republic with three capitals and is one of the most developed countries in the continent, but poverty and crime rates remain high.

What things can you do to make self-improvement after identifying your weakness?
Answer:
The first step would be to recognize and accept your weaknesses. You can't turn a weakness into a strength if you deny the weakness exists. You should get some guidance from a trusted person, such as a good friend, therapist, parents, etc. Set specific goals. Once you’ve identified where you’d like to improve, set specific goals for what you’d like to achieve. Be ready to embrace how difficult it may be. Try not to look at it as a chore, but rather a challenge that you’re ready to take on.
The most crucial part is to be consistent. It takes time and consistent effort to yield results, but with enough practice and confidence to do so, you will most likely succeed.
Hope this helps some. :)
