Answer:
White Dolphin is the second awesome book by Gill Lewis. It is set in a fishing village in Cornwall and a lot of the action takes place on the beach, the cliffs or in the harbour. Many of the people in the community depend on the sea to earn a living.
Kara and her Dad are depressed, upset and confused. Kara's mother, who was a marine biologist and conservationist, disappeared while she was on a research trip, and Kara and her Dad are living with his sister Bev, but Bev is expecting another baby and the house is already overcrowded so Kara and her Dad will have to move out soon.
They have so many debts that they are going to have to sell their beloved boat Moana which is particularly special as Kara's parents restored it together.
They are at war with Dougie Evans and his son Jake who have a grudge against them. Dougie employs a lot of people in his fishing fleet and he wants to get the ban on dredging in the harbour lifted, so that he can make more money easily, but Kara is determined that it should be kept, so that the seabed and all its creatures will not be destroyed.
The white Dolphin plays an important part in the story and it is a precious link with Kara's mother.
This book has lots of things in it that remind me of Sky Hawk, such as the endangered animals, the sick or disabled friend, the rather strange old person that the villagers don't like very much, and the professional environmentalists.
In both books the mean characters change for the better.
There are lots of very strong characters in this book. As well as Kara who was so determined. I liked Miss Pendula who many people think is mad. She lives alone on the cliffs and cares for sick birds.
There is also Felix who achieved amazing things in spite of his disability and Daisy, Kara's cousin who stood up to the bullies who were making fun of Felix even though she is only five.
I admired the Head teacher who was kind and understanding to Kara even though she did something really bad at school.
In the end, Kara achieves something that no adult has been able to do.
Hope it helps

Components of a persuasive essay conclusion need to include
Answer:
A good conclusion should do a few things: Restate your thesis. Synthesize or summarize your major points. Make the context of your argument clear.
...
Context
Tell the reader what you want him or her to do. ...
Explain why this topic is timely or important.
Restate your thesis
Synthesize or summarize your major points
Make the context of your argument clear
Explanation:
Restating Your Thesis
You've already spent time and energy crafting a solid thesis statement for your introduction, and if you've done your job right, your whole paper focuses on that thesis statement. That's why it's so important to address the thesis in your conclusion! Many writers choose to begin the conclusion by restating the thesis, but you can put your thesis into the conclusion anywhere—the first sentence of the paragraph, the last sentence, or in between. Here are a few tips for rephrasing your thesis:
Remind the reader that you've proven this thesis over the course of your paper. For example, if you're arguing that your readers should get their pets from animal shelters rather than pet stores, you might say, "If you were considering that puppy in the pet-shop window, remember that your purchase will support 'puppy mills' instead of rescuing a needy dog, and consider selecting your new friend at your local animal shelter." This example gives the reader not only the thesis of the paper, but a reminder of the most powerful point in the argument!
Revise the thesis statement so that it reflects the relationship you've developed with the reader during the paper. For example, if you've written a paper that targets parents of young children, you can find a way to phrase your thesis to capitalize on that—maybe by beginning your thesis statement with, "As a parent of a young child…"
Don’t repeat your thesis word for word—make sure that your new statement is an independent, fresh sentence!
Summary or Synthesis
This section of the conclusion might come before the thesis statement or after it. Your conclusion should remind the reader of what your paper actually says! The best conclusion will include a synthesis, not just a summary—instead of a mere list of your major points, the best conclusion will draw those points together and relate them to one another so that your reader can apply the information given in the essay. Here are a couple of ways to do that:
Give a list of the major arguments for your thesis (usually, these are the topic sentences of the parts of your essay).
Explain how these parts are connected. For example, in the animal-shelter essay, you might point out that adopting a shelter dog helps more animals because your adoption fee supports the shelter, which makes your choice more socially responsible.
Context
One of the most important functions of the conclusion is to provide context for your argument. Your reader may finish your essay without a problem and understand your argument without understanding why that argument is important. Your introduction might point out the reason your topic matters, but your conclusion should also tackle this questions. Here are some strategies for making your reader see why the topic is important:
Tell the reader what you want him or her to do. Is your essay a call to action? If so, remind the reader of what he/she should do. If not, remember that asking the reader to think a certain way is an action in itself. (In the above examples, the essay asks the reader to adopt a shelter dog—a specific action.)
Explain why this topic is timely or important. For example, the animal-shelter essay might end with a statistic about the number of pets in shelters waiting for adoption.
Remind the readers of why the topic matters to them personally. For example, it doesn’t matter much if you believe in the mission of animal shelters, if you're not planning to get a dog; however, once you're looking for a dog, it is much more important. The conclusion of this essay might say, "Since you’re in the market for a dog, you have a major decision to make: where to get one." This will remind the reader that the argument is personally important!
Please Help me with figurative language
Answer:
Blank Space - Metaphor
Reasoning: It is a metaphor because she is comparing two unlike things, saying that something is something. She doesn't really have a blank space, so therefore she is comparing her emotions and the guy she likes.
RED - Simile
Reasoning: Similes use like or as, in Taylor Swift;s song she uses many similes.

this is my essay so far is it good? i still need to add my back up links tho.
This essay will argue that mountain bikes are better than moto bikes. mountain bikes are better than motorbikes because they are light, meaning you can take them to a lot of places. With mountain bikes you can be free and ride around places at any age but with motorbikes you have to be old enough to have a licence. Mountain bikes can be cheap or expensive so if you're a beginner you can buy a cheap bike to see if you like it.
Mountain bikes are better than moto bikes because mountain bikes are really light compared to a moto bike meaning it is easier for you to take a mountain bike away, To say if you were going on a trip/holiday ride for the day, it is really easy to just get your mountain bike and ride as in a moto bime you would have to get all your gear on first make sure you have a licence and registration, ETC.
With motorbikes you have to have a licence and registration plus you have to be oldernough to get that, but with a mountain bike at any age you can start riding and no ones stopping you. With a motorbike you can't just go for a quick little ride or a cruise you have to be oldernought and have a licence and rego and a helmet.
With Mountain biking you can get bikes for really cheap or expensive so if you are just a beginner you can get a cheap bike and see if you like it and if you really like it upgrade to a slightly better bike, then if you stick with it you might choose to get a more expensive bike so that you can do big stuff with the right type of bike you need. But even if you get an expensive bike it's still not as expensive as a good motorbike.

Now use the information gathered in part A and part B to write a response paragraph about the excerpt from Rouge
Heart. Answer these questions in your response:
• What is the narrator's relationship with the shop owners and their daughter?
• Which details from the text support this idea?
• How do these details support the idea?
Answer:
This is what I put:
At first their relationship wasn't as strong as it is now. The shop owners took her in either because they pitied her or because they truly cared and they showed kindness and took her in. Now they have a really strong bond. "I believe at first they hired me out of pity—a girl, just sixteen, who couldn’t understand their language, let alone speak it, who had but the clothes on her back. But after these two years I’ve wedged my way into their hearts. They undoubtedly have in mine." These details support the idea by proving what their relationship is and how strong it is.
Explanation:
This is the sample answer:
The text reveals that the narrator has formed a strong bond with the family she works for. In the line, “but after these two years I’ve wedged my way into their hearts” shows two things. First, the phrase “wedged my way” shows that the narrator has made a strong effort to be in relationship with the family. Second, the phrase “into their hearts” shows that the family has accepted her as one of the family. Thus, we can infer that the narrator has created a strong bond.
Use which ever you want, it'd be better if you put your own words.
4. Read these sentences from the selection: "When it seemed to him that
it must be nearly daylight, he heard the clock strike ten at night! This was
despair." What do these details explain about Tom's character? *
He is bad at reading a clock.
He is impatient for the night to end.
He wishes for Sid to wake up.
He is easily disturbed by noises.
