Read the excerpt from chapter 6 of Lizzie Bright and the Buckminster Boy. One afternoon, after another dreary Sunday, he walked home from Mrs. Cobb's with the sea breeze determined to shove him to Malaga Island. It scooted around him and pulled at his ears. It threw up the dust of the road into his face to turn him around, and when he leaned into it, it suddenly let go and pushed at him from behind, laughing. But with the iron word forbidden tolling like a heavy bell by his ears, Turner would not let himself be brought to Malaga. And so with a last abrupt kick, the sea breeze twisted around and left him. Turner watched it rushing pell-mell down Parker Head and toward the shore. "Go find Lizzie," he whispered. In this excerpt, which indicates that the story is being told from the third-person point of view? Turner refers to himself as “I,” and the reader is able to hear his thoughts and feelings. Turner is referred to as “he,” and the reader is able to hear his thoughts and feelings. The narrator describes in great detail Turner’s words and actions but not his thoughts. The narrator describes in great detail Turner’s thoughts but not his words or actions.
Answer:
In the excerpt, what indicates that the story is being told from thethird-person point of view is tha Turner is referred to as “he,” and the reader is able to hear his thoughts and feelings.
Explanation:
Third person point of view means writing from an outsider's point of view and pronouns like "he", "she", "it" or "they" are used. Generally, it belongs to the people being talked about.
And from the excerpt, Turner keeps making references to "he" which enables the reader to hear his thoughts and feelings.
"One afternoon, after another dreary Sunday, he walked home from Mrs. Cobb's ...". This shows that he is writing from the third person point of view.

Answer:
B. Why Rabbits Have Short Tails
Explanation:
This story "Why Rabbits Have Short Tails" is used to reinforce rules or morals. Especially, if one wants to warn little children about the dangers of being tricky and cunny just like the rabbit, this story is usually told.
The rabbit was known to be tricky so one day he decided to play his trick on the alligator. The rabbit who wanted to cross the river to eat clover decided to jump on the backs of the alligator with a pretense that he was counting them. As he got to the last alligator and was about to land on the bank of the river, the last alligator who was hungry chopped off his tail. That's why rabbit has a short tail.
Generally, this story is used to teach everyone (both young and old) the consequences of being cunny and tricky.

Marilyn Helmer.
why is the coronavirus pandemic regarded as life crisis
Answer:
I think it's because it is a disease that has affected almost the whole world and it kills very fast without proper medication
Answer:
All original, I did not copy anything!
Explanation:
There aren't any antibiotics or vaccines at this time to cure anyone. The worst part about it though is that it takes around 18 months (1 year and 6 months) To around 24 months (2 years) to create a vaccine. This is a huge problem, because anyone who communicates with everyone without a mask and social distancing has put their lives in great peril. I have seen the corona virus work first hand and it's scary. Any person that has corona is in such great pain.
Another reason as to why this is called a life crisis is because, hospitals are over flowing with corona patients and without a vaccine they don't have very much to do. Now, this overflows and overwhelms the hospital system and than there are going to be a lot of people being unattended.
One last reason, without the vaccine there are people who get sick again and numbers of cases grow daily. This cannot continue but, there are only a few ways to protect ourselves and we must do whatever we can to stay safe.
Remember to always wear a mask, wash your hands, social distance, and don't go into public places without something to protect you. Stay safe everyone!
ANSWER THIS AND YOU CAN HAVE 50 POINTS Read the following excerpt from “The Gift of the Magi” and answer the question. For there lay The Combs--the set of combs, side and back, that Della had worshipped long in a Broadway window. Beautiful combs, pure tortoise shell, with jewelled rims--just the shade to wear in the beautiful vanished hair. They were expensive combs, she knew, and her heart had simply craved and yearned over them without the least hope of possession. And now, they were hers, but the tresses that should have adorned the coveted adornments were gone. But she hugged them to her bosom, and at length she was able to look up with dim eyes and a smile and say: "My hair grows so fast, Jim! And them Della leaped up like a little singed cat and cried, "Oh, oh!" Jim had not yet seen his beautiful present. She held it out to him eagerly upon her open palm. The dull precious metal seemed to flash with a reflection of her bright and ardent spirit."Isn't it a dandy, Jim? I hunted all over town to find it. You'll have to look at the time a hundred times a day now. Give me your watch. I want to see how it looks on it." Instead of obeying, Jim tumbled down on the couch and put his hands under the back of his head and smiled."Della," said he, "let's put our Christmas presents away and keep 'em a while. They're too nice to use just at present. I sold the watch to get the money to buy your combs. And now suppose you put the chops on." The magi, as you know, were wise men--wonderfully wise men--who brought gifts to the Babe in the manger. They invented the art of giving Christmas presents. Being wise, their gifts were no doubt wise ones, possibly bearing the privilege of exchange in case of duplication. And here I have lamely related to you the uneventful chronicle of two foolish children in a flat who most unwisely sacrificed for each other the greatest treasures of their house. But in a last word to the wise of these days let it be said that of all who give gifts these two were the wisest. O all who give and receive gifts, such as they are wisest. Everywhere they are wisest. They are the magi. The excerpt above is an example of which story element? initiating event plot complications climax setting
Answer:
The answer is:
The author is emphasizing the sense of loss that Della must feel when she realizes she can’t use them.
In the selection from "The Gift of the Magi," the creator O. Henry focuses on the excellence of the Della's looks over that Jim purchases for her. They are uncommon, stunning and costly, and she has consistently needed them. Truth be told, she never believed that she could ever have them. Accordingly, the creator plans to feature the incongruity of the story, which is that she won't have the option to utilize the brushes she has longed for.

Long and short works of fiction have different
characteristics beyond simply the length of
the work. Think of a short story that you like
and a longer work (novel or novella) that you
like. You can use the story and novella from
this unit if no other works come to mind
quickly.
BU I E
Discuss the elements of each work that made
it enjoyable to read. What relationship did the
form of the work (short story, novella, or
novel) have in making it an enjoyable read?
What elements of fiction were strongest in the
work, and how did they impact your
enjoyment of the story? Compare the two
works you chose. How are they
representative of short fiction versus longer
I would choose a fairytale or fable for the short story and discuss the way it was enjoyable because of its simplicity, whimsy, and moral that should clear through the story without excessive twists or turns. Essentially, discuss the benefits of a simple and straightforward plot. As for the long work, choose a novel or novella that discusses a large topic within a complex storyline. For this I would recommend a book such as 1984, Fahrenheit 451, The Barcode Rebellion, or The Outsiders. All of these are great books that discuss various subjects of importance while creating a complex and enjoyable plot for the reader to follow. Shorter fiction tends to be a bit more lighthearted or whimsical than longer fictions like the books I recommended. (This is based in my opinion of longer versus shorter fiction, and there are outliers to my generalization, of course)
