SIMPLE PAST
MARTIN´S VACATION
Martin had a terrible day yesterday. It was the day of his vacation to Spain but it was a
nightmare. He left the house at 10 o'clock in the morning and caught a taxi to the airport.
Martin went to the check-in with his luggage. When the man who worked for the airline
asked for his passport, Martin became very upset. Where was his passport? Martin realized
he didn't have his passport with him. What a disaster!
He jumped back into the taxi and told the driver to take him home. The driver drove quickly
and Martin arrived back at his house in twenty minutes.
He ran into the house and went into his bedroom. He found his passport on the bedside table
and left the house again. But the taxi wasn't there! Where was the taxi!
Martin jumped up and down angrily. "I don't believe it. The taxi left!" he shouted. He ran
down the street and looked for another taxi.
After a few minutes, Martin found another taxi and told the driver to take him to the airport
as quickly as possible. The traffic on the roads was very bad and, unfortunately, Martin's taxi
arrived at the airport late. His plane left for Spain at 11.30 and Martin missed it. He was very
sad and went to speak to the airline. They promised to get him a seat on an evening flight
and Martin went home on another taxi to wait.

At length I would be avenged; this was a point definitely, settled --but the very definitiveness with which it was resolved precluded the idea of risk. I must not only punish, but punish with impunity. A wrong is unredressed when retribution overtakes its redresser. It is equally unredressed when the avenger fails to make himself felt as such to him who has done the wrong. It must be understood that neither by word nor deed had I given Fortunato cause to doubt my good will. I continued, as was my in to smile in his face, and he did not perceive that my smile now was at the thought of his immolation. As a narrator, Montresor can best be described as _____.

What lessons has the yew tree taught Conor so far? You might want to look back in the novel to different places they speak together, and the stories the tree tells.

Answers

Answer:

The yew tree (the monster) taught Conor through its stories is that Conor should accept and understand that his feelings regarding his mother's sickness are contradictory, that he wants to let his mother go even while desperately wanting to save her from death, and that these feelings do not necessarily make him a bad person.

And also that only by acknowledging that fact can Conor be free of the guilt he feels.

In essence the monster helps Conor interpret his feelings and understand that they are just as valid as those of the characters in the monster's stories.

Explanation:

Conor expects all the stories the monster tells him to bear clear moral lessons because of the similarities they bear to his own life, but the monster  implies that it was only trying to help him understand human nature and life itself.

However despite this the monster's stories are supposed to make Conor able to see his life from a different perspective and interpret his contradictory emotions, which are all lessons in reality.

Conor learned that the primary lessons of all three stories in the monster's words, "There is not always a good guy. Nor is there always a bad guy. Most people are somewhere in between."

What is wrong with the sentence Long lines at security, delayed departures, and missed connecting flights can sometimes test even the most experienced airline traveler’s patience

Answers

Corrected Sentence:

Long lines at security, delayed departures, and missed connecting flights can test the most experienced airline traveler's patience.

The original sentence is grammatically correct, however, there are too many words at the end and it makes it confusing for the reader. There are many ways you can approach this sentence. What I did was take out the words 'even' and 'sometimes' to make the point more clear.

I hope this helps xD

The sentence is missing key nouns and can be reconstructed in a simpler way to give clearer meaning.

How can the above sentence be reconstructed?

The new statement should read:

Long lines at security checkpoints, delayed departures, and missed connecting flights by the airlines, can test the patience of the most experienced airline traveler.

The problem with the above statement is that its complexity is almost burying the meaning of the sentence. Again, was  missing key nouns such as :

Security checkpoints

departures by the airlines.

Explanation:

In December 1955, Shirley, a fictional 9-year-old black girl in Montgomery, Alabama, might have written these letters to her cousin Elizabeth in Detroit, Michigan...




December 5, 1955

Dear Elizabeth,


Guess what’s happening in Montgomery? We are having a bus boycott! Do you know what that is? It’s when a lot of people refuse to use a service like the city bus as a way of protesting something. Starting today, black people won’t ride the buses anymore because of the unfair way the bus company treats us.


Remember how it is here? The black people have to sit in the back of the bus, and the white folks get to sit up front. If the bus gets full, the black people have to give up their seats to the whites. It’s the law. You’re lucky that in Detroit, you can sit anywhere you like on the bus. That must be nice. Here’s why we’re having the boycott: Last week, a black woman here named Rosa Parks was riding the bus. She was on her way home from work. When the bus got full, the driver told her to get up and give a white person her seat. She refused! So the police came and arrested her. They took her to jail! Can you believe it? Mrs. Parks said she was tired of giving in to white people. So now, all 50,000 black people in Montgomery aren’t going to ride the bus at all until things change. The bus company sure is going to lose a lot of money!


We’re all trying to help each other. Most black folks here don’t have cars. The ones that do are driving others to work. Black taxi drivers are charging only a dime (the same as the bus fare) instead of 45 cents for a ride. Thousands of people are walking miles to work, school, and church. The buses are practically empty!


The new minister in town, the Reverend Martin Luther King Jr., is the leader of the boycott. He says that if we protest peacefully with “courage and dignity,”


we can make great changes for black people. Until then, I’ll keep walking!


Love, Shirley




Over a year later, Shirley writes again.




December 21, 1956

Dear Elizabeth,


You won’t believe what I did today — I rode in the front of the bus!


The boycott is finally over, after 381 days. I never thought it could last this long, because the bus company was losing so much money. But the city officials did everything they could to stop the boycott without changing the seating rules. They arrested black drivers for the slightest

reason. They made black taxi drivers charge full fare.


They arrested people who were waiting for rides. Hundreds of people lost jobs and went to jail. A lot of white people were really angry, and Reverend King’s house was bombed!


Our black leaders went to court to end segregation

on the buses. The city fought the case all the way to the Supreme Court.


Now the Supreme Court has said that we can sit wherever we want on the buses.


It wasn’t easy for people to walk so far in all kinds of weather. My friends and I wore out our shoes walking to school. But we’ve kept up our spirits.


We believe this boycott is just the start of equal rights for our people! Tell Aunt Louise you want to come down and visit me here. We’ll ride the bus up front together!


Love, Shirley


How does Shirley respond to the bus boycott?



A

Shirley is angry that a bus boycott is necessary for black people to be treated fairly.

B

Shirley is hopeful about the bus boycott and willing to do her part to create change.

C

Shirley complains about having to walk everywhere, since she can’t use the bus.

D

Shirley hesitates to join her friends and family in the bus boycott, as it’s going to be a lot of work.
