One Last Dribble
"Hey, you guys. I, uh, need . . . Listen, go on play the game without me," Marcus asked his buddies to leave him alone. Suddenly, going through the motions was just not going to cut it. Marcus sat on the bench watching his friends who seemed carefree as birds on the beach. To him they seemed like boys, and he did not feel like one. The basketball flew through the air, but Marcus stopped following its motions.
It was just another afterschool game. Marcus had come to play and to forget about school. But he kept thinking about what had happened in class earlier that afternoon. As if pulled by an inner force, Marcus had stopped his best friend from playing a mischievous prank on the new science teacher. It was Marcus, the mastermind behind all the trouble in the school, who had actually stopped Dan from adding superglue to the stapler. Miss Pons, the science teacher, had walked in as Marcus snatched the stapler from Dan. Miss Pons had not asked Marcus any questions. Her glance showed an unspoken understanding.
"Come on, Markie!" Dan yelled between breaths, "Let's win this!"
Marcus did not hear his friend calling after him. He needed to figure things out on his own. He needed time alone to understand this change.

Read the paragraph below before answering
Which of these sentences best supports the main idea of this passage?
A.
sentence 2
B.
sentence 8
C.
sentence 3
D.
sentence 14
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Here is why I think it's C,
Option A introduces the idea that people in the desert "nomads", have no use of electricity and it also talks about how they transport electricity to Europe
Though, this cannot be the answer, because while it is talking about electricity, it's talking more about the transportation
Option B cannot be it either, it's just stating a fact that Austria is a country in Europe, this has nothing to do with electricity itself
Option C says clearly on how they ship power to Europe, and even explains the process, which is why I think it's C
Option D is just a metaphor, but it's nothing to do with the actual main idea

Does someone have written film analysis???it can be any film. Help me it's due today.
Answer:
Alex Garland’s 2015 science fiction film Ex Machina follows a young programmer’s attempts to determine whether or not an android possesses a consciousness complicated enough to pass as human. The film is celebrated for its thought-provoking depiction of the anxiety over whether a nonhuman entity could mimic or exceed human abilities, but analyzing the early sections of the film, before artificial intelligence is even introduced, reveals a compelling examination of humans’ inability to articulate their thoughts and feelings. In its opening sequence, Ex Machina establishes that it’s not only about the difficulty of creating a machine that can effectively talk to humans, but about human beings who struggle to find ways to communicate with each other in an increasingly digital world.
The piece's opening introduces the film with a plot summary that doesn't give away too much and a brief summary of the critical conversation that has centered around the film. Then, however, it deviates from this conversation by suggesting that Ex Machina has things to say about humanity before non-human characters even appear. Off to a great start.
The film’s first establishing shots set the action in a busy modern office. A woman sits at a computer, absorbed in her screen. The camera looks at her through a glass wall, one of many in the shot. The reflections of passersby reflected in the glass and the workspace’s dim blue light make it difficult to determine how many rooms are depicted. The camera cuts to a few different young men typing on their phones, their bodies partially concealed both by people walking between them and the camera and by the stylized modern furniture that surrounds them. The fourth shot peeks over a computer monitor at a blonde man working with headphones in. A slight zoom toward his face suggests that this is an important character, and the cut to a point-of-view shot looking at his computer screen confirms this. We later learn that this is Caleb Smith (Domhnall Gleeson), a young programmer whose perspective the film follows.
The rest of the sequence cuts between shots from Caleb’s P.O.V. and reaction shots of his face, as he receives and processes the news that he has won first prize in a staff competition. Shocked, Caleb dives for his cellphone and texts several people the news. Several people immediately respond with congratulatory messages, and after a moment the woman from the opening shot runs in to give him a hug. At this point, the other people in the room look up, smile, and start clapping, while Caleb smiles disbelievingly—perhaps even anxiously—and the camera subtly zooms in a bit closer. Throughout the entire sequence, there is no sound other than ambient electronic music that gets slightly louder and more textured as the sequence progresses. A jump cut to an aerial view of a glacial landscape ends the sequence and indicates that Caleb is very quickly transported into a very unfamiliar setting, implying that he will have difficulty adjusting to this sudden change in circumstances.
These paragraphs are mostly descriptive. They give readers the information they will need to understand the argument the piece is about to offer. While passages like this can risk becoming boring if they dwell on unimportant details, the author wisely limits herself to two paragraphs and maintains a driving pace through her prose style choices (like an almost exclusive reliance on active verbs).
"Some say the world will end in fire" and "To say that for destruction ice, is also great". These lines are the example of____
Answer: Personification
Personification is to give human qualities to inanimate objects. In this poem, “Fire” and “Ice” are capable of destruction. Therefore, the poet personifies fire and ice by giving them a mind that is capable of destroying almost anything.
Explanation:
Fire and Ice,' a poem of only nine short lines, is written about destruction, about the inevitable demise that hatred and obsession will bring. In the first line of the poem, Frost indicates the end, or demise, and the two ways in which it can happen: fire or ice.

From 1896 to 1900 Albert Einstein studied mathematics and physics at the Technical High School in Zurich, as he intended becoming a secondary school (Gymnasium) teacher. For some time afterwards he was a private tutor, and having meanwhile become naturalised, he obtained a post as engineer in the Swiss Patent Office in 1902 which position he occupied till 1909. The main ideas involved in the most important of Einstein's theories date back to this period. Amongst these may be mentioned: The Special Theory of Relativity.
