Write a paragraph on the topic “ Reading takes you around the world: ”

i will mark who ever answers this first as brainlist

Answers

Answer 1
When we read books, the stories in them transport us from the world we are in to the world within the pages of the book. To be transported by a book requires the reader to have an emotional response to the book, to visualise the story and eventually, become immersed in it. As a reader, I consider myself lucky to have read several books that have made me lose awareness of my existing surroundings and drawn me into the story unravelling in the book.

“There’s always room for a story that can transport people to another place.” – J.K. Rowling

When I think of being transported by a book, a recent incident comes to my mind. On a winter morning, I had boarded a train to Furkating, a small town in Assam. It was a bleak morning and the sun was a pale yellow, melting into a silver sky. In a compartment colder than December, I sat tucked in my winter clothes amidst rows of filled seats. As the train started with a jolt, I brought out a book from my overstuffed handbag and started reading the first chapter.

Soon, I was deeply engrossed in the story and before I knew it half an hour had passed… The train was starting to slow down as we had reached a station; on a cemented slab in yellow, the letters read ‘Panbari’. Some of the seats in front of me that were previously filled now lay empty. Two of the solo passengers who sat ahead of me had struck up a conversation about the weather in Dimapur – probably the place they were heading to. The winter sun was now splattered across the sky and shining over thatched-roof villages that we were fast leaving behind as the train gained momentum.

Mary Balogh describes it perfectly, “Have you ever wanted to travel back in time? I know I have. And I think that’s why historical romance is so appealing. That experience of being so immersed in the story that it feels like you’re really there: strolling along in a moonlit rose garden with a duke, or taking tea in a lady’s finely appointed drawing room. And if you’re the adventurous type (like me), perhaps you find yourself riding on a cable car in San Francisco, or exploring the canals of Venice in a gondola. Whatever the tale, these new experiences are just waiting to be discovered; beckoning you, enticing you, entreating you to pause, to sit down and to spend time between the pages of a good book.”

Explanation:

Sugar plantations were Hell because of the endless labor
they demanded from slaves. They were Hell because of
the many dangers and the injuries that they caused. They
were Hell because the slaves who labored without end got
nothing for their work-except to live another day, to
work more. But none of these miseries was the true
reason the plantations were so evil. The plantations were
Hell because the masters and overseers were treated as
gods-which turned them into devils. The English
historian Lord Acton famously said, "Power tends to
corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely." That is
a perfect description of sugar Hell. Men with absolute
power over their slaves acted like creatures we would
otherwise meet only in nightmares. Their cruelty had no
limit-they preferred to kill their slaves rather than fear
them. As Equiano explained, the island of Montserrat
"requires 20,000 new Negroes annually, to fill up the
vacant places of the dead."
What is the most important point that the authors make
in this paragraph?
Most enslaved people worked under fair to good
conditions.
Enslaved workers had decent lives if they had fair
overseers.
Plantations often were harsh because of the cruelty
of those in charge.
Men with absolute power can lose the sense of
what it means to be good.

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Men with absolute power can lose the sense of what it means to be good  is the most important point that the authors make in this paragraph

What is meant by Men with absolute power?

According to the adage "Absolute power corrupts absolutely," anyone who has control over others or things becomes corrupt. Their moral essence is destroyed, and they become arrogant and destructive.

However, if the individual is able to protect themselves from this abuse of authority, they are modest.

Thus, option D is correct.

Correct. This is a very good method to bring down body temperature in fever without inducing shock into a patient.

Explanation:

The extract is a very good technique to reduce a person's temperature with care, avoiding bringing the subject to a state of shock. As using lower temperature waters will provoke the patient a shock and might be riskier because it could trigger hypothermia and that is a very dangerous state that if not attended correctly can kill the patient.

Explain how the examples of recent scientific discoveries support the idea that chupacabras may one day be found. Use details from the text in your explanation.

Answers

Answer:

The Chupacabra is a mythical creature from Central America that would feed on the blood of goats and other farm-animals.   In addition to Central America, there are also reports of the creature in the United States, especially in California.

The shape of the creature is not very clear. As is often the case with folk tales, there are all kinds of contradictory explanations. Whether it is a reptile, mammal or even an alien is not clear from the stories. Some witnesses say it flies and others say it walks or crawls.

In 2007, the Texan farmer's wife Phylis Canyon found the corpse of what she claims is a Chupacabra. A few days later she distributed a photo that went around the world in a day. At first it was thought that it was a coyote with scabies, but according to biologists this is highly likely: an animal suffering from scabies is only bald in certain places. The researchers at Texas State University in San Marcos discovered through DNA testing that this was a bald coyote, where the lack of a coat could have been caused by missing a gene, which could have been caused by inbreeding or crossing species.

Read the passages.

Editorial
Children need lengthier recess sessions in order to reap the full benefits from the play session. They need ample time to move their body, to explore, to tinker, to problem-solve, to work through their emotions, and to dive deep into their imaginations.

–"How Schools Ruined Recess—and Four Things Needed to Fix It,"
Angela Hanscom

Newspaper Article
"While I was certainly intrigued by the academic and behavioral benefits, it was the psychological benefits such as increasing emotional resiliency, increasing imagination and creativity, and promoting the development of self-confidence that I felt would be a game-changer for my students."

–"Why Some Schools Are Sending Kids Out for Recess Four Times a Day,"
Valerie Strauss

Which idea is supported by both passages?
Increased recess time leads to more than just physical benefits.
Increased recess time leads to increased self-confidence in children.
Children benefit from an increase in creativity with longer recess times.
Children benefit more from longer recess times than shorter recess times.

Answers

Answer:

A). Increased recess time leads to more than just physical benefits.

Explanation:

The idea that both the given passages reinforce would be 'additional benefits of increased recess time other than physical benefits.' The first passage displays how 'lengthier recess sessions promote creative and imaginative thinking, problem-solving, and work through the emotions' abilities in the students. The second passage reiterates a similar idea by discussing psychological and behavioral benefits like 'increasing...creativity' of increased recess time that allows students to 'develop self-confidence that may help them a great deal in future and prove to be a 'game-changer.' Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

What are two (2) different types of conflict in "The Lottery"? Provide
textual evidence for each to prove your answer. *

Answers

Answer: 1) Conflicts of Character vs Society, 2) Conflicts of Character vs Supernatural          

Explanation:

1) The main conflict of "The Lottery" revolves around the close-minded villagers against the "rebel" woman that questioned the old method of "the lottery". In the line: "she held her hands out desperately as the villagers moved in on her", you read about the stone confrontation between The Character and the Society.                          

2) In literature, Conflicts of Character vs Supernatural include "fate", which Tessie faces. Despite complaining about the non-sense tradition, she is tied to the patriarchal rules and is destined to be sacrificed. In the line: “It isn’t fair,” she said. A stone hit her on the side of the head", you can see that at the end of the story, her words didn't matter to her destiny.
