Answer: It serves as characterization by showing that Victor is ambitious and willing to gain more knowledge about science and the world.
Explanation:
Characterization is a literary device that uses words or actions to tell the personality of a character. It can be direct (stated clearly in the text) or it can be indirect (said in such a way that makes it left for readers to decide).
The statement “The world was to me a secret which I desire to divine” stated by Victor serves as characterization. It shows how curious and ambitious Victor is as a person and how wiling he is to grow and become more knowledgeable in science.

Which of the following words best fits the definition of "having a cheap and ugly appearance"?
A. Evasive
B. Volatile
C. Tawdry
D. Preposterous
Answer:
C. Tawdry
Explanation:
np i hope i helped
"Tawdry" best fits the definition of "having a cheap and ugly appearance". Thus, option 'C' is the correct option.
What do you mean by tawdry?Tawdry denotes inferior quality or tastelessness. It may be used to describe practically everything, including attire, people, events, and even relationships.
You remember that silky black slip you used as the skirt of your lion-tamer Halloween costume that you got for free at a rummage sale? It's somewhat tacky. Yet, if you wore it on a typical day out, it would be downright tacky. Tawdry items, such as tawdry extramarital affairs or tawdry tales, can carry a whiff of desperation and depravity. Quality has been sacrificed for loads of flash and brilliance in the form of tacky ornaments and jewellery.

This is a strange Christmas Eve. Almost the whole world is locked in deadly struggle, and, with the most terrible weapons which science can devise, the nations advance upon each other. III would it be for us this Christmastide if we were not sure that no greed for the land or wealth of any other people, no vulgar ambition, no morbid lust for material gain at the expense of others, had led us to the field. Here, in the midst of war, raging and roaring over all the lands and seas, creeping nearer to our hearts and homes, here, amid all the tumult, we have tonight the peace of the spirit in each cottage home and in every generous heart. Therefore we may caat aside for this night at least the cares and dancers which beset us, and make for the children an evening of happiness in a world of storm.

Read the rough draft of a student’s conclusion to an argumentative editorial.
(1) Year-round schooling would help student achievement. (2) Not so much information would have to be crammed into nine months. (3) Furthermore, the elimination of long breaks, particularly summer break, would significantly reduce "learning loss” and the additional time wasted at the beginning of each academic year to reteach previously learned material. (4) It is clear that year-round schooling helps students learn and retain more. (5) The United States is not the only country to experiment with a year-round school schedule. (6) Although many still claim that evidence about year-round school and its link to higher achievement is inconclusive, these people need to open their eyes and see that students in these schools consistently score higher on certain assessments than students who attend schools with traditional nine-month calendars. (7) It is about time that we replaced our outdated and inefficient school calendars.
Which best revises sentence 6 to create a more appropriate and respectful tone?
A. Although many still claim that evidence about year-round school and its link to higher achievement is inconclusive, studies consistently reveal that year-round students score higher on certain assessments than those students who attend schools with traditional nine-month calendars.
B. Although many still claim that evidence about year-round school and its link to higher achievement is inconclusive, this theory is wrong because students in year-round schools consistently score higher on certain assessments than those students who attend schools with traditional nine-month calendars.
C. Although many still claim that evidence about year-round school and its link to higher achievement is inconclusive, they would admit defeat if only they would do their research and find that students in year-round schools consistently score higher on certain assessments than those students who attend schools with traditional nine-month calendars.
D. Although many still claim that evidence about year-round school and its link to higher achievement is inconclusive, these people need to study their facts and acknowledge that students in year-round schools consistently score higher on certain assessments than those students who attend schools with traditional nine-month calendars.

Answer:
Story writing about a camping experience.
Explanation:
One day last January, my friends and I decided to go camping in the Sakhir desert in Bahrain. And considering it was my first time going camping in a desert, I was reluctant to even be a part of it. For most of us, the word desert brings only one thing to mind- sand. And I wasn't looking forward to spending my holidays in a desert, of all places.
But to my surprise, the location was way beyond what I expected. Although sand covers all sides of the camping site, there were tents, dining areas, recreational spaces, even entertainment sites. This was different from any camp I had expected. The camps were interesting yet so out of place, considering the belief I had about deserts. And most of all, there were lots of other people enjoying their time, regardless of the fact that we were in the middle of nowhere, or so it seems.
At night, we had the chance to stargaze and just enjoy the quiet nightlife. There were also outdoor movie theatres, while also enjoying barbeques. All these, in the middle of a desert. Who would have thought camping was enjoyable in a desert too! For me, camping was mountains, trees, nature, away from people, deep into the forest, but not sand, movies, or long walks in the sand. This was an eye-opener for me, and it definitely changed my perception of what camping can be and should be.
Although we stayed for just three days, the camping trip became one of my favorite holiday experiences of all times.

Can someone please write my outsiders essay please????
Answer:
Johnny Cade is guilty of manslaughter in the death of Bob Sheldon.
The accused and main character in the S. E. Hinton novel The Outsiders was sent up the river for four years to Collins Bay Penitentiary Thursday during a mock trial at Gananoque Secondary School (GSS). The Trial of Johnny Cade was the highlight of an interdisciplinary study for intermediate students at GSS that involved elements of art, biology, English, drama, and civics.
Cade, a Greaser in the novel, was charged with murdering Sheldon, a Soc, who had tried to drown his friend Pony Boy in a water fountain a key scene in the book.
During the dramatic presentation, played out before a crowded school gymnasium, Grades 7 and 8 students played the roles of Cade, the prosecution team, defence team, sketch artists, detectives, witnesses, judge and jury. The Hinton novel examines the struggle between two rival groups the Greasers, from the wrong side of town, and the Socs, members of the social elite. The Greasers and Socs are sworn enemies; however key characters on both sides in the novel eventually learn the folly of their ways.
The exercise went beyond the novel, in which Cade died before police could capture him and put him on trial.
Teacher Doug Bowlby said the exercise brought the book alive for students, and connected them with the story at a deeper level because they were able to participate in areas that interested them. Drama students played the main characters in the trial. Students interested in science analyzed evidence from the crime scene and art students acted as sketch artists. Students from English class covered the events leading up to the trial, and the event itself, as reporters for rival newspapers.
The teachers and students worked hard to bring an element of realism to the dramatic presentation. Evidence was presented with audio visual displays from a crime scene set up with the help of Gananoque Police, who collected blood samples, boot prints and other evidence and worked with students at the school science labs to analyze it. The audience was also brought into the game by showing their support or opposition to Cade on a Twitter feed. The prosecution and defence were prepared for the exercise by a criminal defence lawyer from Kingston.
The 12-person jury in the case opted against a conviction for murder after Cade, played by Grade 7 student Gabby Sebrango, testified he and Pony Boy were outnumbered and he stabbed Sheldon fearing Sheldon and his group of thugs would drown his friend. However, evidence also showed that Cade did nothing to help a dying Sheldon after his friends had fled and the danger was gone. Instead, he let the Soc struggle for 200 yards as he bled out.
Sebrango said the exercise gave students a much greater appreciation for the novel than a traditional English literature exercise.
"I liked this much better, she said. It's hands-on learning. When reading a book and writing down responses it can get kind of boring. When something is boring it leaves my head because you just don't want to think about it anymore. This is more exciting so it sticks in your head.
And going into character makes you understand the events in the book more, and be able to see the other sides of the story. It makes you have a new perspective on the entire book."
Bowlby said teachers were hoping for such connections. By allowing students to participate in roles based on their strengths teachers knew students learning would increase.
"We think this is going to build their confidence, said Bowlby of students who participated. When they sit back later in life they will be able to say they did well in school, they did stuff that was fun and hopefully have nice memories of school because of this project."
Teachers at the school filmed the process and will create a documentary to show to other schools interested in organizing a similar exercise.
