Before clocks were made, people kept track of time by other means. In
ancient Egypt, people used a water clock. Water dripped slowly from one
clay pot into another. People measured time according to how long it
took one pot to empty and the other one to fill. Candle clocks were
common during the Middle Ages. As such, when a candle burned, marks
on its side showed about how much time had passed. A final ancient way
to measure time was the sundial, which used the movement of the sun
across the sky. The shadows moving across the face of the sundial
showed the current time. What is the main idea? *

Many works of fiction seem too convincing to be made up stories
Answer:
That's very true man, that's called realistic fiction tho ♂️
Explanation:
Screenwriters, and television writers may choose to unfold the development of their characters in different ways. In some instances, a writer can take an entire film or television season to reveal the inner workings of their characters. In other instances, they may reveal the character's nature very early. Think about a movie OR a television show that you have enjoyed. Discuss one character that stood out to you in the work and be sure to include the following information:
What does the character's appearance tell us about their personality? Consider their age, look, costuming, etc.
What does the character's behavior around other characters tell us about their personality?
What does the character want and how does that influence their actions?
Be sure to provide specific evidence from the television show or movie that you are discussing to support your claims.
Answer:
The movie I think about is the 1946 classic It's A Wonderful Life. The main character in the movie, George Bailey, is a worker and a businessman. This is reflected by the clothes he wears and the way he carries himself. He acts very nice towards everyone around him and through his actions it's obvious to see he is a very good person. Sacrificing his dream of traveling the world to instead stay in his crumby little town to help the people that live there. The character wants to be happy and he wants to help the town and that causes him to sacrifice his dreams for the greater good of the community.

Read this excerpt from Paragraph two of Poe's "The Black Cat" and answer the question.
There is something in the unselfish and self-sacrificing love of a brute, which goes directly to the heart of him who has had frequent occasion to test the paltry friendship and gossamer fidelity of mere Man.
Which phrases from this excerpt support the narrator's distrust of human beings? Select all that apply.
A "unselfish and self-sacrificing"
B "love of a brute"
C "directly to the heart"
D "frequent occasion"
E "paltry friendship"
F "gossamer fidelity"
Answer:
(B,E,F)
Explanation:
As we can see the question is basically asking for evidence that supports why the author has a distrust of human beings (Basically saying that the author cant trust humans, and can't rely on them for almost anything.)
So with that being said, we need to find text evidence that shows a negative perspective coming from the author. So we can go and cross off answer options (A: "unselfish and self-sacrificing") (D: "frequent occasion") and (C: "directly to the heart") bc two of those are positive opinions on humans, and one isn't close to being negative nor positive opinions towards humans.
Now let's take a look at "B"
"Love of a Brute"
Basically saying that somebody is showing love-(affection, caring for) a wild animal-(a violent human).
We can use context clues to find out if this is negative or positive
Before "Love of a Brute," it says "There is something in the unselfish and self-sacrificing" using this we can see that it means "For a person to love a wild animal type of person-( a violent human) is unselfish on their part, because of how abysmal-(horrible) that brute-(violent human) is.
Now let's look at E: "paltry friendship"
This is basically saying that a human shows inconsequential-(Little importance towards something) feelings towards friendship with someone else.
Lastly, we can look at F: "gossamer fidelity"
This means like a thin-(In this sentence it would mean "having little") loyalty-(being trust worthy, and faithful) towards someone.
With all this being said all answers that would apply to answering the
question would be "B "love of a brute", E "paltry friendship", and F "gossamer fidelity".

Answer:
Explanation:
Dear Friend,
My parents had to unexpectedly delay my younger brothers birthday party so they went to me for help. It was very sudden and i had to think fast on what to do at the party, so after a few minutes of thinking i decided to have my little brother and his friends play games while i was thinking of what else to do.
I had them play musical chairs, tag, hide and seek, and play on my brothers bouncy house that we got a year ago for my birthday party. Eventually, I cut the cake for my little brother and his friends. It was themed as his favorite superhero, Spider-Man! After, they continued playing and having fun until it was time to go.
I think the party was a big success because the kids really seemed to enjoy it, and my little brother LOVED it.

Dear Friend,

After giving it some thought, I decided to let my younger brother and his friends play games while I considered my other options.
I made them participate in games like musical chairs, tag, hide-and-seek, and play on my brother's bounce house, which we bought for my birthday party a year ago. The cake was eventually cut for my younger brother and his buddies. His favorite superhero, Spider-Man, served as the motif. They then carried on playing and enjoying themselves until it was time to leave.
