Answer:
last year, I passed the Senior School Certificate Examination. Though I had given it my best shot, I was not confident of scoring too well. Anything less than a first division would certainly throw a spanner in the path of my future career. The day before the result was I expected, I spent a restless night. Early next morning, I along with a few friends hurried to school and went straight to the display board.Starting at eye level I went down the list, with my heartbeat going up as I reached the bottom. My name was not there. With a heavy heart I ran my eyes up the list. And there! I looked again. Yes, it was my name second in the list. Not only had I secured a first division, but also stood second in my class. God fulfilled my desires. I felt grateful to Him. My friends also passed, securing good marks. In order to celebrate our success we decided to go to for a picnic.
We reached Okhla, a lovely picnic resort, at 12 noon. The heavy rush of visitors could not deter our enthusiasm as we sought out a huge banyan tree on the banks of the canal. We spread out our mats and opened up the food hamper. The lively music and delicious food swept away all the tension of the past few days. The idealic atmosphere was abruptly broken by some loud cries. The sound came from the canal side. I immediately rushed towards the canal and was shocked to see a boy drowning. He was crying for help.
I jumped into the canal and swam towards the drowning boy. After a great struggle, I dragged him towards the bank. He was in a very bad state. When I observed him carefully, I was surprised to see that he was an old classmate of mine. He was given medical aid and after some time, he regained consciousness. I was delighted to see him recovering. My joy knew no bounds because I had saved the life of a boy, who happened to be my old classmate.
It was a day of great joy and happiness. Not only did I secure the second position, but also did a brave and noble act by saving a boy from the jaws of death. This day would go down as one of the happiest days of my life.

what does it mean to be compassionate
Answer: adjective
Explanation:

Write a story illustrating:the saying “you reap what you sow”.
Answer:
Once upon a time, there lived a man called Alhaji Ajase who had two wives named Alhaja Kudi and Alhaja Khadijat. Kudi, the first wife had only a son ten years after their wedding. Perhaps, that motivated t he man to marry another wife. The second wife had six children; three boys and three girls. The two wives lived a cat and dog life. The Alhaji was a wealthy man with fleet of cars, houses and industries. He was indeed a man of affluence.
Alhaja Khadijat who had six children hated not only the first wife but her only son. In a short while, she concluded arrangements to eliminate the first wife for no just cause, other than that she was jealous. She contacted a herbalist in their neighborhood to do her act. The herbalist requested for the first wife’s name a strand of her hair and her saliva. Khadijat got these before long without Kudi knowing. One day Kudi slept and died in her sleep. Khadijat was busy shedding crocodile tears; she wept for days, so much so that nobody ever suspected her as the killer of kudi.
After a year of Kudi’s death, she started maltreating Olubi, the only child of the deceased. The boy was only in primary for, but the wicked Khadijat made life unbearable for him. The boy became the family ‘house help’, but she hid this entirely from her husband as he would not take it kindly with her. This woman and her children took undue advantage of the death of Kudi to unleash terror on the ‘hopeless’ boy. He was denied comfort, food and other things of life despite his father’s riches. More often than not, Olubu was made to sleep in the pantry, where he had to battle with mice, mosquitoes and c**kroaches. Despite all these inhuman treatment meted out to him, he never fell sick for one day. Though, he was denied educational facilities by the step-mother, he always came first in all examinations.
It then came that Olubu and two children of Khadijat wrote National Common Entrance Examination. Despite thousands of Naira spent by the step-mother to aid her two children, it was only Olubu that passed in flying colours. In fact, he was awarded a scholarship as he came first in the examination in the entire country. the step-mother thought that the only masterstroke was to wickedly eliminate the body as she did to his mother, otherwise her own children would become his ‘errand boys and girls’ in future.
Alhaja Khadijat contacted the same herbalist who killed the boy’s mother to give her the same charms that killed his mother to kill him too, but the herbalist replied that the poison her had was not the same as the one of the past but it was equally effective. She got it and it was to be sprinkled on the boy’s food. She did it as she was told and travelled out of town so that nobody would suspect any foul play. She warned her six children secretly not to eat the poisoned food before she travelled out on her fake journey. At school, all the children were ordered to wait and do some manual labour, but Khadijat’s children being highly disobedient and wayward defined the order and went home. Olubu had no alternative, but to wait and complete the assignment before going home.
On getting home, Khadijat’s six children, at first, obeyed their mothers instruction not to eat the poisoned food. However, after finishing their own food and still not satisfied, they went ahead and ate out of the poisoned food reserved for Olubu. They quickly ate it and even fought each other in the process. Thereafter, t hey all entered their room and slept and all died in their sleep. Khadijat arrived from the market journey and met her six children dead instead of Olubu. Sh e cried, cried and cried and confessed that she did herself, that she killed Olubu’s mother out of jealousy and decided to kill her son too and that the whole exercise backfired. She was immediately reported to the king who asked the villagers to meet at the market square. Khadijat was sentenced to death by hanging. She pleaded for pardon but the people replied ‘you reap what you sow’. She was hanged at the market square.
10 things i've been meaning to say to you (teacher) will mark brainalist
Answer:
When it says you guys or you that means teachers.
1. You guys make me really proud. When you get the answer right when you improve in your learning, when you don’t fail a quiz you thought you would, when you finally connect the dots of what something means, I feel so immensely proud of you. But beyond that, I am so proud of who you are as humans. You are pretty amazing and I hope you know that. I hope you are proud of yourself too!
2. Give yourself a break. You are going to make mistakes. You are going to make bad grades. You are going to make choices you regret. You are going to have bad days. You are going to worry and stress, but things will work out in the end. And if they don’t it is not over yet. Be gentle with yourself.
3. And speaking of bad grades. You are more than a number. Your grades do not define who you are. Your work ethic, your heart, your empathy, that does. How you carry yourself, defines you. Not even a test grade, a report card letter, an SAT score can define you. You get to define yourself and that’s pretty extraordinary.
4. You are so very loved. By me, by your other teachers, by your families, by God. Never forget how loved you are.
5. You have the power to change the world. I know that sounds cliche. It is cliche. But your kindness, your smarts, your sense of humor, will change the world. The almost past 180-ish days I’ve known you, there is just something about you. There are so many injustices in this world, that you and others will face, but you can do something about them. You can. And I think you will.
6. Teachers do not know everything. Adults do not have it all figured out. As you guys have seen this year, I have failed and I have made mistakes. See we are learning every day. We are supposed to be role models, but truthfully we are still learners too. We will try our very best to get you the right answer, but we do not always have it. Sometimes you have the answer. Sometimes neither of us do. And that is okay. We are all still learning and I hope you never stop longing to learn either. But see you should be kind to your teachers. Especially the ones that are there for you, the ones that you know care. The ones who show up for you when you need it.The ones who see your effort. Be kind to them, and know that they are trying.
7. There is never a dream too big. Do not ever let anyone tell you that your dream is too big or too small. When you set your heart on something, you can do it. You just have to make the jump. Go after them. Start today. Take the leap of faith, and know when you fail, because you will fail, I will be right here in your corner cheering you on. I cannot wait to see all that you will achieve.
8. Find your voice. Find what your truth is and speak it. Speak your truth. And when that truth changes, speak again.
9. There will never be another you. Yes, you. See it’s another, cliche: “Always be yourself.” But, here is the thing. I see who you are. Even though you may not think an adult like me, could see you, trust me, I do. And that person, the person reading this, is one of the best people I know. You get to decide what to do with that person. You get to decide to grow into the best version of that person, today.
10. It has been a privilege to get to know you. I am so thankful to have been your teacher, even in the short amount of time we had in the classroom. Those days at the time, seemed long, and I know you can agree, but now they do not seem entirely enough. I am honored to know every single one of you. And I hope to see you all so soon.

Answer:

Explanation:
I.
In the greenest of our valleys,
By good angels tenanted,
Once a fair and stately palace—
Radiant palace—reared its head.
In the monarch Thought’s dominion—It stood there!
Never seraph spread a pinion
Over fabric half so fair.
II.
Banners yellow, glorious, golden,
On its roof did float and flow;
(This—all this—was in the olden
Time long ago)
And every gentle air that dallied,
In that sweet day,
Along the ramparts plumed and pallid,
A winged odor went away.
III.
Wanderers in that happy valley
Through two luminous windows saw
Spirits moving musically
To a lute’s well-tunèd law,
Round about a throne, where sitting
(Porphyrogene!)
In state his glory well befitting,
The ruler of the realm was seen.
IV.
And all with pearl and ruby glowing
Was the fair palace door,
Through which came flowing, flowing, flowing, And sparkling evermore,
A troop of Echoes whose sweet duty
Was but to sing,
In voices of surpassing beauty,
The wit and wisdom of their king.
V.
But evil things, in robes of sorrow,
Assailed the monarch’s high estate; (Ah, let us mourn, for never morrow
Shall dawn upon him, desolate!)
And, round about his home, the glory
That blushed and bloomed
Is but a dim-remembered story
Of the old time entombed.
VI.
And travellers now within that valley,
Through the red-litten windows, see
Vast forms that move fantastically
To a discordant melody;
While, like a rapid ghastly river,
Through the pale door,
A hideous throng rush out forever,
And laugh—but smile no more.
