Answer: *THE PRODIGAL SON*
Everybody was shocked!!! Nobody could apprehend what was happening...here in front of them was the man they had long gone buried a year ago.Mutume,the unexpectedly alive man had been gone for a year without any explaination leaving the villagers to believe that he had either run away or been kidnapped.It was like he had vanished into thin air and yet here he was claiming to be back.His mother Kamene could not hold back the streams of tears running down her cheeks,leaving us in awe of whether they were tears of shock or happiness.Many ran away to the safety of their humble abode while the fearless few ran to him to confirm everyone's suspicion...was he a ghost?
His face was filled with shock when he was told that he was ''buried'' years ago.He sat down on a three-legged stool to narrate his side of the story to satisfy the unsatisfied..
''It was a new dawn when I decided to go to the city to look for a job to fend for our family,I could not bear the sight of their protruding bones and frail bodies anymore.I quietly tiptoed outside without saying my goodbye fully knowing that that would be an obstacle to whatever plan I had.I ran to the bus stop to catch the first bus to Kisumu town where I had decided to work.I looked at the job application in my hand and barely smiled oblivious of whatever the city had in store for me.Had I knew that that would be my near demise,I wouldn't have boarded the bus.
When I arrived in Kisumu city,I boarded another bus with the little that I had left and looked forward to my supposedly 'new home'.I kept thinking of what I would do once I got the job I so looked forward to,rent an apartment somewhere and immediately inform you of my whereabouts.I was harshly jolted back to reality by the conductor,''Young man pay the fare!''
I calmly slipped my hand into my pockets to fish out the money I had but I was in for a rude shock when I realised that my pockets were empty!What the hell was going on??I frantically searched my bag and my confirmed my suspicions...my money had been stolen!!The shabbily dressed conductor kept hurling insults at me worsening the situation,by now everyone on the bus was staring at me.
I tried reasoning with him but it only made the situation worse...judging by how I was dressed,he quickly concluded that I was in for a free ride.My heart sinked when he said,''Driver,stop the car..young man get off and don't argue with me,we have seen worse people than you claiming to have lost money to get mercy from people like us!''
What did he mean by ''people like us''?This were the kind of questions that circulated my mind at that instance.For all I can remember,I was left in the middle of nowhere with no money,no phone,nothing..just nothing!What was I to do now?Instant regrets flooded my mind as tears of despondency trickled down my face.I kept walking on to the land of nowhere for hours until I blacked out.
I remember waking up in a white room and hearing someone shout,''Doctor he's finally awake..!''
A man in a white lab coat came running in with nurses and they all started running all kinds of tests on me.As I came to learn later,I had practically been in a coma for a year!!The paramedics said that my case was a rare and difficult one since I had not been responding to all kinds of treatments.I was grateful to be alive and after a few hours of testing..they finally told me that I had been brought to the hospital by a good samaritan and that he had been paying all my bills even though the doctors had told him that I was no-more case.
Since I wanted to personally thank him..I looked for him the first thing when I got discharged from the hospital.He was a bright middle-aged man who offered me a well-paying job and the one who reminded me to inform you of my whereabouts...He offered to bring me here but I kindly declined his offer since he had already done so much for me.That's why I am here after a year,it was not intentional for me to make you worry and I apologise for anything I might have cost you.I am very happy to be back home with you all.''
Everyone paused for a while as if to process the miraculous story of this wonder man from their village then they broke into clapping and ululating for this prodigal son.There was a celebration to welcome him back home where he belonged...
THE END.~

what cultural biases about native americans does cabeza de vaca reveal in ""La Relación"" ?
Answer:
The cultural bias that can be found in Cabeza de Vaca's account in 'La Relacion' is that when Vaca and his fellow men thought Native Americans to be 'crude and untutored' and the one's who intend harm even after saving their lives.
Explanation:
Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca was a Spanish explorer who was stranded on Galveston island in expedition with his fellow men in 1528. He wrote about his exploration experience in his diary which was later printed entitled 'La Relacion of Alvar Nunez Cabeza da Vaca.'
In his account recorded in 'La Relacion', the readers come across the author's bias towards the culture of Native Americans.
The two incidents that reveals this cultural bias noted by Vaca in 'La Relacion' are:
Vaca and his fellow men thought the Native Americans to be 'crude and untutored' even after they saved their lives at first. When the Native Americans held a celebration, they thought they will sacrifice them. This reveals the cultural bias about the Native Americans by Vaca and his fellow men. Second instance of cultural bias can be found when Native Americans asked them to perform 'tribal medicine rituals.' At this point, Vaca and his fellow men biased Native Americans thinking them to be superstitious and untutored.

21. Antithesis means to put two ideas together in order to contrast them, pointing out their differences. In sentence 20, what
does Henry contrast with "love and reconciliation"? What is the effect?
Answer:
He contrasts them with "Fleets and Armies." This helps Henry emphasize that 'Great Britain has previously taken the matter from 'the diplomatic phase to the military phase.'
Explanation:
Antithesis is described as the literary device in which two contrasting ideas are juxtaposed in parallel form. It helps the author to create a balanced effect and provide a better understanding to readers.
In sentence 20, the 'love and reconciliation' are contrasted with 'Fleets and Armies' to signify that Great Britain does not consider the former('love and reconciliation') to be a viable strategy. It helps Henry to highlight that Britain has already taken the matter to the military phase and there is no scope to 'diplomatic options to resolve the issue.'

Answer:
I am writing this report to the police as a witness to a fatal accident that happened this morning on my way to school.
My name is Carlos Torres, I live at Number 16 Palmgrove Avenue, California, and school at Brille Academy. On my way to school this morning on my bike, I witnessed a fatal accident that claimed a life.
How it happened: A van was waiting for the traffic lights to turn green and a speeding car came from the right at full speed, careened, and hit the van, near where the driver of the van was seated. It was a very nasty accident as I heard screams of pain and anguish, bones crushing and flesh tearing.
EMTs were on the scene quickly enough but I think the driver of the car died immediately. It was such a horrible scene. This happened on Freeway 15 around 7:35 am.

Antigone and Ismene heard with horror what Creon had decided. To Ismene, shocking as it was, overwhelming her with anguish for the pitiful dead body and the lonely, homeless soul, it seemed, nevertheless, that nothing could be done except to acquiesce. She and Antigone were utterly alone. All Thebes was exulting that the man who had brought war upon them should be thus terribly punished. "We are women," she told her sister. "We must obey. We have no strength to defy the State." "Choose your own part," Antigone said. "I go to bury the brother I love." "You are not strong enough," Ismene cried. "Why, then when my strength fails," Antigone answered, "I will give up." She left her sister; Ismene dared not follow her. –“The Royal House of Thebes,” Edith Hamilton How does the character of Ismene contrast with Antigone’s archetype?
Answer:

An orange fruit drops to the ground from the top of a tree 45m tall.how Long does it take to reach the ground?(10m/s)
Answer:
3 seconds
Explanation:
Height(S) of tree = 45m
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10m/s^2
From second equation of motion:
S = ut + 0.5at^2
Where:
u = initial velocity ; t = time taken ; a = acceleration due to gravity; S = distance or height
Here u = 0
S = ut + 0.5at^2
Plugging our values :
45 = 0(t) + 0.5(10)(t^2)
45 = 0 + 5t^2
5t^2 = 45
t^2 = 45 / 5
t^2 = 9
Taking the square root of both sides
t = 3s
