Explanation:
Part A How does the narrator of “A Cub Pilot” initially feel about his own abilities? A He feels that he needs more supervision than he receives. B He is very confident in his overall ability to pilot a steamboat. C He is sometimes worried that he will misjudge the river’s depth. D He thinks that he knows the river better than any of the pilots do. Which statement from “A Cub Pilot” best supports the answer in Part A? “My imagination began to construct dangers out of nothing, and they multiplied faster than I could keep the run of them.” “Judgment is a matter of brains, and a man must start with a good stock of that article, or he will never succeed as a pilot.” “If anybody had questioned my ability to run any crossing between Cairo and New Orleans without help or instruction, I should have felt irreparably hurt.” “All [Mr. Bixby] ever did was to take the wheel on particularly bad nights or in particularly bad crossings . . . and collect the wages.”
Answer:
D. He thinks that he knows the river better than any of the pilots do.
“If anybody had questioned my ability to run any crossing between Cairo and New Orleans without help or instruction, I should have felt irreparably hurt.”
Explanation:
"Cub Pilot" is from the novel "Life On The Mississippi" by Mark Twain. It tells the experience of Samuel Clemens/ Mark Twain as a steersman under his chief Mr. Bixby.
When Mr. Bixby asked Mark to navigate the boat while he went below for a while, he felt confident of doing it without supervision. His confidence in his ability and knowledge is on the high and he felt sure of it. He thinks that there is no other pilot that knows the river better than him. This is supported by his admission "If anybody had questioned my ability to run any crossing between Cairo and New Orleans without help or instruction, I should have felt irreparably hurt."

PLEASE HELP can you tell me a story about the picture with a lot of details
Answer:
An ancient beast was rumored to be on the prowl deep within the mountain caves. Miners refused to work until the threat was removed so you took the job. You had killed many beasts before and had the scars to prove it, but something felt off as you wandered through the cave. Your torch cast shadows on the walls making you jump at every flicker. As you tread deeper into the cave strange noises become more clear. It sounded like scales scraping against the rock but it seemed to come from everywhere. You held your breath and gripped your spear when you turn a corner and are met with a wall covered in runes. You slowly approach the wall looking over your shoulder wary of any attackers. The runes almost seemed to have a heartbeat. You reached your hand out to trace the carving and the stone surprisingly feels warm. Suddenly your whole body feels hot and your vision goes white and when you finally regain consciousness you are in a desert with massive cliffsides surrounding you and a giant snake before you. "I am Ouroboros, the cycle of life, death, and rebirth, Guardian of the mortal realm and you dare defy me, mortal" the voice came from the creature but seemed like it was in your head. Panic filled you as you look around and see its long body coiled and sliding over itself. There were many spears stuck in the body of the serpent. Slowly you dropped your spear and knelt before Ouroboros. "Please Ouroboros, I have been sent by a village of miners who have claimed that a beast was terrorizing the mines" you dared not make eye contact with the beast. A slow cold laugh made every hair on your body stand on end. "I terrorized them, how quaint as they are the ones who invaded my home and attacked me." The serpent said raising themselves higher. " You humans have no right to enter a realm you have no business in and accuse a god of terrorizing them I the physical manifestation of a balance in nature and you want to destroy me for breaking into my home." The voice was cool but bitter and Ouroboros' body uncoiled as they surrounded you. Your heart was pumping out of your chest and you could hear blood rushing through your ears. "Please, I came to destroy a monster, not a god, I didn't know." You begged. "A god, a monster, a fellow human, there is no difference to you humans you see only what your prejudice and ignorance can perceive, and you will pay dearly for it in the end but I will let you go if you swear you will tell the village to end their vain attempts to vanquish me." Your body relaxed and you looked up at Ouroboros, their head covering shone in the bright sun. "I swear I will tell the village." Ouroboros recoiled and a portal opened before me. "Go." You left spear and walked to the portal still in shock. When you reappeared you were right outside of the village. Without even thinking you walked to the tavern and sat down at the bar. The barkeep smiled and all the townsfolk gathered around, they all expressed shock and awe that you had made it back but when you recounted your tale to them they grew angry. "So you didn't even slay the monster." The barkeep said sharply before sighing. "Guess we will have to find some else to send". The barkeep said. You look up shocked "Did you not hear what Ouroboros said" you exclaim. The barkeep looked at you angrily and said "Yes and I don't care, it's still a monster is it not?"

1. Write a letter to a friend abroad describing what your headmaster has done to improve sports in your school.
Answer:
Number 27 Greenwich Ave,
Aberdeen,
Scotland.
31st August 2020.
Number 12 Agric Road,
Westminster,
England.
Dear Harry, how are you doing? And how is the weather over there? I know how much you hate cold weather hehe.
I'm writing to you to inform you about the changes Old Abe, our headmaster has done to improve sporting activities in our school. The old geezer has actually gotten an efficient gym coach and nutritionist for the male football team. Everyone was shocked.
Not only that, but he is also directly involved in fitness training for the students. He makes sure the students, in general, eat a healthier diet, and then there are specialized pieces of training for the sports guys.
His efforts have not been in vain though. Last year, the men's football team came first by a very wide margin, it was almost not a contest, the female volleyball team came third, from their lowly seventh-place finish the last time.
I look forward to seeing more of your letters. Do take care.
Yours faithfully,
Michael White

Dear Sam,
I have such great news today! I and some of the girls in school have been trying to convince the headmaster to allow female students to participate in sports such as football and baseball. So far we hadn´t got any positive answers, it seemed like nothing was going to happen.
But yesterday the headmaster announced ALL school sports becoming Mixed-sex, meaning that from now on we can have teams with boys and girls! We are so happy because we made it clear that our request was not only about sports but also about promoting female participation in sports and make a point about gender equality.
Will send you a picture of my new uniform! I´m playing football starting next Monday!
Yours faithfully,

I prize thy love more than whole mines of gold, Or all the riches that the East doth hold." These lines contain an example of simile. metaphor. hyperbole. synecdoche.
Answer:
Hyperbole.
Explanation:
Hyperbole is a figure of speech used to make exaggerated statements about an idea or opinion or anything for that matter. It uses the use of "over-the-top" words to express one's opinions and feelings.
In the given lines from Anne Bradstreet's poem "To My Dear Loving Husband", the speaker uses hyperbole to express how much she loves her husband. She admits her love for him is more than "the whole mines of gold, or all the riches that the East doth hold". The love that she has for her husband far exceeds any 'material wealth', meaning she exaggerates the amount of love she has. This use of exaggeration in her expression of love for her husband is an example of a hyperbole.
The literary device that has been employed in the given lines would be as follows:
C). Hyperbole
Hyperbole
Hyperbole is demonstrated as the literary device that involves overstatement or "over the top description" of a particular idea or point. In the line "I prize...hold" from the poem "To My Dear Loving Husband" by Anne Bradstreet, hyperbole is employed as the speaker overstates her love for her husband. The detail "more than whole mines of gold" substantiates this "over-the-top" description of her love.Thus, option C is the correct answer.
