Read "The gift of the magi" and give me a summary of it please?

Answers

Answer 1

The story tells of a young married couple, James, known as Jim, and Della Dillingham. The couple has very little money and lives in a modest apartment. Between them, they have only two possessions that they consider their treasures: Jim's gold pocket watch that belonged to his father and his grandfather, and Della's lustrous, long hair that falls almost to her knees.

It's Christmas Eve, and Della finds herself running out of time to buy Jim a Christmas present. After paying all of the bills, all Della has left is $1.87 to put toward Jim's Christmas present. Desperate to find him the perfect gift, out she goes into the cold December day, looking in shop windows for something she can afford.

She wants to buy Jim a chain for his pocket watch, but they're all out of her price range. Rushing home, Della pulls down her beautiful hair and stands in front of the mirror, admiring it and thinking. After a sudden inspiration, she rushes out again and has her hair cut to sell. Della receives $20.00 for selling her hair, just enough to buy the platinum chain she saw in a shop window for $21.00.

When Jim comes home from work, he stares at Della, trying to figure out what's different about her. She admits that she sold her hair to buy his present. Before she can give it to him, however, Jim casually pulls a package out of his overcoat pocket and hands it to her. Inside, Della finds a pair of costly decorative hair combs that she'd long admired, but are now completely useless since she's cut off her hair. Hiding her tears, she jumps up and holds out her gift for Jim: the watch chain. Jim shrugs, flops down onto the old sofa, puts his hands behind his head and tells Della flatly that he sold his watch to buy her combs.

The story ends with a comparison of Jim and Della's gifts to the gifts that the Magi, or three wise men, gave to Baby Jesus in the manger in the biblical story of Christmas. The narrator concludes that Jim and Della are far wiser than the Magi because their gifts are gifts of love, and those who give out of love and self-sacrifice are truly wise because they know the value of self-giving love.

Answer 2

Answer: The gift of the Magi

Summary: This book is about a couple that were not rich and wanted to buy something for each other for Christmas! Della cut her hair off to buy something for Jim’s watch while Jim sold his watch to buy something for Della’s hair! When they have found out about the gifts, they were still happy to think they were kind enough to give each other gifts so they had a merry Christmas.

Homer demonstrates one of Penelope's character traits, her ability to be cunning and sly, when she fools the suitors with her weaving. Explain how she fools them, and the importance of her deception. Your response should be at least one hundred words long. Consider how the cultural value of hospitality plays a role.

Answers

Answer:

Penelope deceives suitors by undoing the weaving every night and redoing it all morning. The importance of this is that she buys time for Odysseus to return to her.

Explanation:

Penelope had been waiting for her husband to return for years and everyone believed that he was dead and that she should marry again, but she did not want this and wanted to wait for her husband until the day of her death, because she loved him and was confident that he would return. . However, women did not have the autonomy to not want to be married, at the time "The Odyssey" was written. Which means that several suitors started to come to Penelope's house and although she didn't want them there, she couldn't send them away, because hospitality was one of the main values of that society.

The pressure for Penelope to marry was so great that she said she would be married when she finished weaving a blanket for her father-in-law. With that, Penelope deceived the suitors, because all night she undid the weaving and started again every morning, making sure that the blanket was never finished.

With that, Penelope was able to avoid a new marriage and buy time for her husband to come home.

Which tone should a reader use to read the newspaper headlines? --> Formal

Which tone should a reader use to read the narration after the newspaper headlines? --> Disappointed

Explanation:

Before reading the headlines, the author is in a casual, relaxed moment. There are no worries crossing her mind yet, no reason to be tense or sad. She then proceeds to reading the headlines, which are written in a formal tone. Headlines have a straightforward and serious aura. Imagine the voice of a news anchor reading them, and you'll be able to hear their formality. Upon reading them, the narrator is disappointed.

Write a narrative of approximately six hundred words set in the far North. The story can be based on personal experience or it can be completely invented,

Answers

When my parents came up with the idea of going to the far north, having a different and innovative experience, I believed it could be cool and a constructive experience for my life, but I was deeply mistaken and I would like to go back in time and prevent this trip.

The extreme cold is causing me very badly. I was barely able to move, due to the cold and the innumerable layers of clothes, which seemed to have no effect on the intense climate that received us in the city.

I would have preferred to go to some beach in South America, I believe the experience would be much more pleasant. Keeping warm and wearing nice clothes, trying delicious foods and feeling your toes seems like a more profitable situation.

"It's not as bad as it looks." My mother said "At least the landscape is beautiful".

"Yes, if you like the landscape with endless snow." I replied with a frown.

"Don't be so negative, we can go to the hotel in a little while and have a big glass of hot chocolate" She said smiling.

I spent the first day frowning, I was hating the trip, but I realized that I was being more uncomfortable than the environment and I didn't want to spoil my experience or my parents' experience, so I decided to change my behavior and try to enjoy what the place was good. Even with the agonizing cold, I discovered things that I liked and made the trip even cooler than I thought.

2. Analyze how the "war on drugs” contributes to mass incarceration.

Answers

Answer:

People have rightly pointed out that drug offenses account for a relatively small fraction of “the prison population” at any given time. While correct, that shouldn’t be used to dismiss “The War On Drugs”. The number of prison sentences issued on drug offenses exploded around 1985 and stayed elevated for at least a quarter-century, perhaps declining a bit in the last few years. That adds up to millions of “extra” drug terms and at least a large fraction of the growth in prison sentences and prison records over the “mass incarceration” period. (I think it’s at least plausible it’d be a majority of that growth if we could account for related charges, but even if it isn’t it’s nothing to dismiss.)

Explanation:

Which of these attitudes is the hardest to deal with? Why?

Which attitude is the hardest one to keep if you are in a conflict? Why



Plz help me. God bless whoever and his familly is trying their best on this

Answers

Answer:

I would say the best attitude is Assertive. This way you can stand up for yourself without coming off as completely rude. Also, it uses the word "compromise", which is an agreement or settlement, which is great. Passive-aggressive is a good attitude as well, but it says you'd sabotage the other, which isn't the best attitude then. As for passive, you'd be giving in too easily and wouldn't stand up for yourself, which is not a good attitude for resolving conflicts since you would then be losing everything.

The hardest attitude to deal with would be aggressive since they don't give in and will do all they can to win.

The hardest attitude to keep if you are in a conflict would probably be passive since you may end up getting aggressive, but it really depends on the individual.

HELPP ME WRITE A BRIEF 5 SENTENCE SUMMARY ON THIS. BRAINLIST (OR HOWEVER YOU SPELL IT)
Nikola Tesla was born in 1856 to a Serbian family in the country that is now called Croatia. When Tesla was young, he was able to do such complex math problems in his head that his teachers thought he was cheating. He finished high school in 3 years instead of 4.
He started college, but didn’t finish. However, he learned enough to go to work. He moved several times over the next few years, each time getting a job as an electrician. At each place where he worked, he designed and made improvements to the equipment.
In 1884, he moved to New York City. He came with a letter of recommendation to Thomas Edison from one of his bosses. The letter is claimed to have said, “I know two great men and you are one of them; the other is this young man.” Edison hired
Tesla, who began as an electrical engineer. He quickly became very important to the company, solving some of its most difficult problems. Tesla was able to use his mind to imagine how different methods worked. Edison always made a lot of models and tried them out, which took a lot longer.
In 1885, Tesla and Edison had a falling out. Tesla told Edison he could improve some of Edison’s motors and generators. Edison told him he would pay him $50,000 if he did. This was quite a lot of money at that time. Tesla worked hard and spent months on the task. When he succeeded, he asked Edison for the reward, but
Edison told him he had been joking. He said, “Tesla, you don’t understand our American humor.” He offered Tesla a $10 raise on his $18 weekly pay. Tesla quit the job.
Tesla started his own company in 1887, Tesla Electric Light and Manufacturing. There he worked on making a system called “alternating current” to produce electricity. Thomas Edison thought his system, called “direct current,” was better and safer. The two became rivals. They each gave talks about why his particular method was better. They had public demonstrations to show people how they created electricity. This rivalry was referred to as the “War of the Currents.”
Another rival of Edison’s, George Westinghouse, had also been trying to create an electrical system. He bought some of Tesla’s inventions and paid him $2,000 a month to consult with him. Tesla spent all his money on new inventions and ideas. He invented the Tesla coil, which carried electricity without wires. You can still see a Tesla coil at some museums today. Tesla invented or helped develop a long list of devices, including X-ray machines, radio, wireless remotes, fluorescent lights, and the system of electricity that is still used today in our cities. He helped create a power plant in Niagara Falls that provided power all the way to New York City. He was given many awards and honorary degrees from universities all over the world.
Sadly, Tesla died without a cent. People forgot about him, and remembered Edison, whose companies still exist and have his name, like Consolidated Edison, the electric company that powers New York City. In the 1990s, people started to write about
Tesla, and now he is becoming better known again. The owner of a new car company named it Tesla Motors because they make electric cars. Their first car used Tesla’s design from 1882 for an electric car.

Working alongside Edision, Tesla provoking accounts, such as being fooled with money. After quitting the job, Tesla began a manufacturing company; the two inventors soon started the "War of the Currents." Tesla made many inventions, including the most famous Tesla Coil. He died without his paid dues and was soon forgotten, but, people remembered the inventor.

Violence in video games is essentially to blame for violence in our society. When children are bombarded with monstrous images, they begin to think that these types of actions are normal or acceptable. Children and teenagers are spending excessive numbers of hours playing video games, and they may begin to use them as a guideline for how to act and behave. Even if they do not perform violent actions, they may become less sensitive to the thoughts and feelings of others because of what they see reflected in these games.

which of the following uses for
hyperaccumulators are described in the
passage?
1. cleaning up contaminated soil
II. attracting animals to be hunted
III. mining materials from the soil
A. I only
B. I and II only
C. I and III only
D. I, II, and III

Most plants get their nutrients from the soil. Good soil ensures that plants will grow to be productive and healthy. However, what happens when a plant actually absorbs something that could be harmful?

Some plants called hyperaccumulators simply store it. Hyperaccumulators grow in soils with high amounts of minerals or metals. They do this to defend themselves. Absorbing heavy metals makes the plants toxic to animals that might want to eat them.

Because these plants absorb harmful materials, these plants can be used to clean soil that has been polluted. Once they are planted, they slowly remove heavy metals from the soil. When the plants are harvested, the pollution is removed too. The harvested plants can then be burned, which leaves behind all the metals to be disposed of safely.

What's more, this technique isn't just helpful for controlling pollution. It can be used to mine useful metals, too.

Answers

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Because if you read the passage, they talk about how soil can be polluted and how some hyperaccumulators plants can absorb the pollution, they dont talk about how these plants have benefits on hunting but they do talk about how the plants can be burned then be used to make mining materials so its C, both 1. and lll.

Weather describes precipitation and humidity at a given time and place, and climate describes cloud cover and temperature at a given time and place.

Answers

Answer:

The claim which explains how weather differs from climate is the first one:

Weather is the state of the atmosphere at a given time and place, and climate is weather conditions in an area over a longer period of time.

Explanation:

We can say that weather refers to the variations in atmosphere that we can observe in a short-term basis. Associated with wind, visibility and temperatures, among other things, weather concerns today, tomorrow, or a couple of weeks, for instance.

Climate refers to a weather-related average, and it is usually reached over the period of 30 years. By collecting weather statistics and analyzing data throughout the years we can reach certain conclusions concerning the climate of a country or region in the world. Words such as humid, dry, hot, and cold are normally associated with climate.
