white dolphin chapter 10 summary

Answers

Answer 1
During the long days of summer, Karana sits on the cliff, scanning the horizon for ships. When the first storm of winter comes, she knows that no ship will come until spring. The winter storms blow onto the rock where Karana sleeps, and she is forced to move her bed to the foot of the rock. The dogs come the first night she sleeps there. She makes a fire to keep them back and kills three of them with her bow.

During the storm, Karana decides to travel across the sea to look for her people. When the storm ends, she goes to the place by the cliff where her people left their canoes (the ones they would have used to escape the Aleuts if they came back). The food in the canoes is still good, and Karana brings some water from the spring. Taking the smallest of the canoes, she leaves the island of the blue dolphins.

By dusk, her home has disappeared from sight. The sea is rough and Karana is afraid, but she uses the stars to find her way. During the night, she realizes her canoe is leaking, and plug the crack with fiber form her skirt. When dawn breaks, Karana sees she has drifted south of her planned course. She adjusts her heading, now using the sun to direct her. Soon she finds another leak, which she plugs in the same way as the last. Seeing that the planks of the canoe are weak, Karana knows that she must turn back. She is reluctant to do so, however, because the island to which she must return is so lonely and desolate. As water again starts to leak into the canoe, she turns and heads back. On her way, a swarm of dolphins begins to follow her boat. "Dolphins are a good omen," and though Karana is tired and despairing, the sight of the dolphins gives her the strength to continue. Another night passes, and Karana's canoe begins to leak, but as dawn breaks, she sees her island on the horizon. She reaches the island around noon and, forgetting the danger of the wild dogs, crawls onto the beach and falls asleep.

Karana awakes and leaves the beach the next morning, and returns to her home. Looking out over the island, she is filled with happiness. Surprised at this feeling, since only a few days earlier she had decided she could not bear to live on Ghalas-at any more, Karana knows that she will stay on the island until a ship takes her away. Because she must wait until that day, Karana decides that she must build a house and a place to store food. She scouts two possible sites for her settlement. One is near the wild dogs' cave; the other is on the headland. A third site looks good as well, but it is near the old village, and Karana does not want to be reminded of the people who once lived there.

Karana finally decides on the headland, where the sea elephants are very noisy. She begins to plan her new home, deciding that the first thing she needs is a fence to protect her food supply. It rains for the next two days, and on the third morning Karana heads toward the beach to gather materials for her new home.

a definition in which the meaning of a word, expression, or symbol is determined in part or entirely by defining the meaning of a larger expression that contains the definiendum as in the definition of a legal right by the phrase "X has a legal right to y=X has a claim upon somebody for possession of y that the courts will uphold.

The situational context explains the cause of an event as well as the necessary response and behaviors that go along with it. It is a particular kind of setting that affects communication. The scenario, conditions, or particular setting in which an event takes place are known as the context.

Read the following thesis statement for an essay. Then, write three hooks for the essay: a question hook, an anecdote hook, and an imagery hook. Be sure the hooks connect the thesis and the background information
THESIS: Free breakfast should be provided for students in middle school.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Studies show that many students either don't eat enough, or don't eat healthy foods. Studies also show that students who have healthy diets perform better at school.

Answers

Answer:

Question hook: How would you feel if you had to go to school every day and learn in an empty stomach?

Anecdote hook: The first time I decided to get breakfast at school they told me I had to pay. I had no problem doing this but then my mind wondered about all the other kids that can’t afford it.

Imagery hook: Your family is just getting by. Your mother is working two jobs and you dad isn’t around. No one is there to make you breakfast so you decide to eat it at school but you can’t because of your family's financial struggles. This is the reality of many middle school children.

Answer:

Question hook:  Would you like to go to school with an empty stomach?

Anecdote hook:  When I am hungry, I can’t focus on anything, let alone learning or studying.  I can’t imagine what it must be like for kids who go to school hungry every day.

Imagery hook:  Your stomach makes a thunderous roar that echos through the entire classroom.  You try to focus on the teacher, but all you can hear is the constant ticking of the slow-moving clock.  All you want is to hear the crunch of the delicious apple in your mouth and the satisfaction of a full stomach.

The Speaking Crab
by Cecil Henry Bompas (adapted excerpt)


At this sound the farmer was very frightened, and puzzled also; for he thought, "If this were a human being crying, everyone in the neighborhood would have heard and woke up, but it seems that I alone am able to hear the sound; who can it be who is talking about my servants?" So, he went back to bed and told no one. The next morning when the laborer looked for his yoke ropes, he missed one; and then he remembered that he had used it to tie up the crab; so, he went to the place and found his rope. When his master brought them their breakfast that day and they had finished eating, the laborer began to tell how he had lost one of the yoke ropes and had found it again: and how he had used it for tying up the crab which he had found. The master asked whether the crab was alive or dead; and the laborer said that it was dead.


Then the master said "My man you have done a very foolish thing; why did you tie it up alive? Last night I could not sleep for its crying. Why did you imprison the innocent creature?" And he told them the song it had sung and forbade them ever to cause such pain to living creatures. He said "Decide its fate outright or you will bring disgrace on me; when I heard the lament, I thought it was a man, but now I learn from you that it was a crab. I forbid you ever to do the like again." And at the time of the Sohrai festival the farmer called together all his household and sang them the song and explained its meaning to them, and the men who heard it remember it to this day.

A poetic form is a type of poem with specific rules for rhryme, rhythm and/or subject matter. Two poetic forms are haikus and sonnets.

A haiku is a traditional Japanese poetic form. It consists of three unrhymed lines with specific syllable counts: five syllables in the first line, seven syllables in the second and five in the third. Haikus are often about nature and the seasons.

A sonnet is a 14-line poem with a set rhyme scheme and a particular syllable pattern called iambic pentarneter. Different types of sonnets have different rhyme schemes. An English, or Shakespearean, sonnet usually follows the rhyme scheme of: ABABCDCDEFEFGG. The final two lines, a couplet, summarize the main idea of the poem.


According to the passage, one of the differences between haikus and sonnets is

A the number of adjectives used in the poems.

B the number of lines in the poems.

C the type of writer who composes the poems.

D the types of verbs used in the poems.​

Hello. To answer this question it is necessary to listen to the audio to which it is related and to which you did not inform which one it was. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

When it comes to listening, the best thing we can do to increase this quality is to focus on what we are hearing, because only then is it possible to understand all the information that is being passed on. Thus, distractions must be avoided. In order to obtain clearer and easier to follow instructions, the student should look for media that make him more comfortable and that expose the information in a more pleasant way to the student.

In general terms, how do the townspeople in "The Handsomest Drowned Man In The

give a quote to support and explain. Please someone help!!

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

In "The Handsomest Drowned Man in the World," a short story by Gabriel García Márquez, the townspeople react to the body with acceptance. He is first found by children when he washes up on their shore. Instead of being afraid of him, the children play with the body. When the adults of the village finally realize he is there, they take him into one of their homes, and the women take care of him. They will do for him what do for every body that washes up on their shore: they will mourn him with a brief wake, and then bury him in the ocean.

"They had been playing with him all afternoon, burying him in the sand and digging him up again . . .

While the men went to find out if anyone was missing in the neighboring villages, the women stayed behind to care for the drowned man. They took the mud off with grass swabs, they removed the underwater stones entangled in his hair, and they scraped the crust off with tools used for scaling fish."
