“He understood fully that he might actually be going to die; his arms, maintaining
his balance on the ledge, were trembling steadily now. And it occurred to him
then with all the force of a revelation that, if he fell, all he was ever going to have
out of life he would then, abruptly, have had. Nothing, then, could ever be
changed; and nothing more-no least experience or pleasure-could ever be added
to his life. He wished, then, that he had not allowed his wife to go off by herself
tonight-and on similar nights. He thought of all the evenings he had spent away
from her, working, and he regretted them. He thought wonderingly of his fierce
ambition and of the direction his life had taken; he thought of the hours he'd spent
by himself, filling the yellow sheet that had brought him out here. Contents of the
dead man's pockets, he thought with sudden fierce anger, a wasted life"(6-7).

20 POINTS! Read the passage below and complete the task that follows.
"Scientists have learned a great deal from manned space flights. One unexpected discovery has been that humans are not well adapted to life in space. Life without gravity causes the fluid in a human body to float upward, which not only creates uncomfortable pressure in the head and chest, but also weakens the leg muscles. Long space missions can also cause astronauts to develop brittle bones, vision problems, and difficulties eating and sleeping enough.
NASA hopes to send astronauts to Mars in the 2030s. Scientists calculate a trip to Mars would take around 2.5 years. To date, the longest a human has lived in space is 438 days, a feat achieved by Russian cosmonaut Valeri Polyakov on the Mir space station in 1994–95."

Red Shift is basically a slang term about how machines used to infer light see a red shift compared to previous results on the same galaxy since light traveling farther away is red, this information tells scientists that those objects with red shift are farther away. RST also supports the theory that the galaxy is expanding, as everything is getting farther away from what appears to be a center point, which supports the big bang theory.
Summary for "The Lady or Tiger"
The story first introduces a "semi-barbaric" king, who has implemented a unique form of justice within his kingdom: if the king believes that someone has committed a crime, they are placed in an arena and forced to choose blindly between two identical doors. Behind one door is a beautiful lady who will promptly become the accused’s wife; behind the other door is a tiger. Then the Kings daughter falls in love with a very handsome man. The king puts the man in an arena and forces him to choose blindly between the two identical doors. But the Man looks at the daughter and daughter tells the man to choose the door to the right. Then the author wants you to finish the story.
[...] But the Man looks at the daughter and daughter tells the man to choose the door to the right. Then the apprehensive man looks the king right in the eye and refuses to choose any door. The surprised king asks the man why he refuses to obey the orders of his king and his princess.
The man promptly replies that because of selfishness and a concern for the princess's happiness he is unable to escape one of the doors. This is because if he chooses the door where the tiger is, he will be killed and his soul will wander the land without peace, until the love of his life, the princess, meets him in the Hereafter. However, if he chooses the door where a beautiful maiden is placed, he will have to marry a woman with whom he is not in love, leaving three unhappy lives. His life, for not marrying the one he loves, the life of his wife, for being married to a man who does not love her, and the life of the princess, for seeing her love with another woman.
So instead of choosing between the doors, he chooses to ask, dearly, that the king grant her the daughter's hand in marriage, thus preventing three souls from living in suffering.
The king, moved by the man's words and seeing his daughter's happiness, has no choice but to allow marriage.

The world would be a better place if.....
Can you Make a speech
Answer:
The world would be a better place if we could accomplish all of these things. The world would be a better place if we treated each other like humans.
he world would be a better place if we could accomplish all of these things. The world would be a better place if we treated each other like humans.Mindless acts of terrorism, mindless discrimination, mindless bullying, mindless abuse, mindless killing, and mindless racism and discrimination plague our world. It’s easy for people to find any excuse to hurt someone. It can range from something as small as picking on the new kid in school to bombing a city of innocent civilians. Our world is surrounded by hate and with so much hate surrounding us, it’s hard to step out of the big picture and realize that at the end of the day, we’re all humans. As humans, we have to learn to look beyond what separates us from others and learn to unite. We have to look past skin color, past gender, past political affiliation, past economic status, past religious beliefs, etc. In order to unite, we have to look past all of the things that separate us.We have to look past our differences. I want to live in a world where people can live happily without having to think about what someone may think of them. I want to live in a world where we don’t label a whole religious body as terrorists. I don’t want to live in a world where power is determined by how much money you have and where wealth isn’t even distributed equally.It’s heartbreaking when you begin to realize how much hate there is in the world. People kill themselves over words people utter. There are people in this world who deliberately go out of their way to put others down because they can’t accept themselves. There are people in this world who are so quick to target the black kid without realizing that beneath that layer of skin is the same flesh and bones we all share. We’re more alike than we seem. However bigger conflicts always arise from smaller, trivial things. Soon we get into the habit of hating each other. We get into the habit of constantly putting each other down just to feel satisfied. Instead of taking into account the bigger things, we crush each other.

HELP PlZ BAD AT ENGLISH CAN YOU TELL ME HOW I DID ON MY ESSAY
Summer Of 2019
Swish, Swish is the sound I wake up to the morning of August 6 of 2019.
I also hear the sound of my cousin Malichi’s voice,” Wake up Dyllen the fish should be jumping in Gelmark cove.”( A cove that my family named after my uncle won his first fishing Championship in). Anyway, I get up ready for a good three or four hours of fishing. On our way down to the boat dock, we all get all of our bait tied on will my uncle pulls the boat. And the second we hit the water I hop into the driver seat of my uncle's bass boat to go pick him up after he parked the truck. On the way to the cove, all we feel is the wind in my face and I am starting to wish I brought a hoodie. Once we get there we all grab our poles and start to fish, and even though we have been there 20 minutes we all have caught at least a 5-pound fish. Eventually, after another 20 minutes, we head to another spot. After the first 40 minutes of fishing and the last other spots, we head back to camp to get breakfast. When we arrive everyone is awake even some of my uncles' friends are up to having a good time eating good food. Also when we pull up into the camp all you can smell is the smell of bacon, fried eggs, rice, sausage, and other Asian breakfast foods that are too hard to pronounce, but masarap which means delicious in my family’s language according to my uncle. After a good meal we all get ready for a great time on the lake tubing, swimming, kayaking, fishing, and even sitting on the boat waiting for your family members get thrown off the tube, Once all of the fun is done in the middle of the lake we all go to the cove next to our campsite that is made for swimming. And once we are there we all get ready to swim make it safe for the little ones, so that means cleaning up our fishing stuff from this morning and putting it inside our boxes and safe away, as that is going on I am one with cleaning my fishing equipment and hop into the water to help my uncle move the kayak’s on the other side of the boat so we do not hit his friend's boat.”Ugh ooo ugh” is the noise I make getting into the kayak to help move it, but about 30 seconds later those noises are cut short by the pain that just shot up against my left elbow of a hook. So apparently my cousin Caden dropped a crankbait that has 6 hooks 3 on each end and 2 hooks got jabbed into me. Anyway, He dropped them and tried to get it as I was trying to get into the kayak but he fell into the water moving the bait closer to me and when he got the bait he started to doggy paddle back and as he was doing that he got my elbow, A little bit after that everyone was confused why I screamed until they saw the hook into my arm. When back on the boat getting ready to get the stupid hook out of me, scared to death that they are going to rip it out, and hearing them say I am a drama Queen. After finding it out, we got ready to go back to the campsite with me and my uncle to clean my wound. After that, we go back to the boat to go back to the rest of my family. And to my luck I see Caden crying for what he did to me on accident it felt worse on him than me.

Now Zeus the lord of cloud roused in the north
a storm against the ships, and driving veils
of squall moved down like night on land and sea.
The bows went plunging at the gust; sails cracked and lashed out strips in the big wind.
We saw death in that fury, dropped the yards, unshipped the oars, and pulled for the nearest lee:
then two long days and nights we lay offshore worn out and sick at heart, tasting our grief,
until a third Dawn came with ringlets shining. Then we put up our masts, hauled sail, and rested,
letting the steersmen and the breeze take over.
I might have made it safely home, that time,
but as I came round Malea the current
took me out to sea, and from the north
a fresh gale drove me on, past Cythera.
Nine days I drifted on the teeming sea
before dangerous high winds.
