Answer:
Sir Gawain, can be said to be a good Christian by the virtue of him having been knighted by King Arthur. He is valiant, pure and chivalrous. The poet describes him as pure as gold. Gawain begins with a symbolic shield, as opposed to having acquired it in his adventures. Gawain took up his shield seeking out for the Green Knight and faced the tradition culture with one of its five symbols and given new meaning, and was backed by the new acquired culture’s faith.
Now Green Knight stands almost in a fatherly position to Gawain. Green Knight, is seen referring Arthur’s knights as beardless children, and says he will be playing a game with them rather than battling with them. This appears as a cruel taunt, implying that Arthur’s knights have childlike innocence, perhaps being their young cultures innocence. When knight was in shock at the Green Knight’s stiff challenge, Arthur was to leap to accept it, but Gawain strongly denied him because was not supposed to accept it. To them he was a parent like figure, and it was they, who were young, be tested, not he, proved his worth.
Arthur, in that instance, was almost a mother figure to those knights of his caliber. The sooner he realized that knights were not going to defend the honor of the court, he leapt to do it by himself, as mother bears to defend her cubs. This seems to be a ruse on his part so as to shame the knights. Gawain realized that the test had turned into a rite of passage, but not actual challenge, and stepped up so as to take it upon him. Arthur argued with Gawain, so as to be sure that he knew what he was getting to himself, and after Gawain appealed that it was him supposed to accept the challenge, Arthur moved to him, handing to him an axe, which was the tool to help him meet challenge.
The appearance and challenge of the Green Knight were not only rite of passage in which new Christian culture was to get wisdom and knowledge of Gallo Celtic culture that preceded it, but also as a reminiscent of older Celtic story about the passing tradition of the Holly King and the Oak King. In the story, the Holly King, here identified as the Green Knight, challenges the Oak King into a mocking battle during the New Year eve so that, in being beheaded, he shall pass on kingdom. In the course of the year, Oak King grew older and wiser, and was beheaded by Holly King at the end of summer, and the cycle restarts.
In the Third Fit, Gawain gets involved in a game with Lord Bertilak who was the castles lord in which stayed awaiting the confrontation between him and the Green knight. They traded for three days he stayed inside the castle, what they gained during the day. He did not realize, though, that that the game was a part of Green Knight’s tests against him. The first two days, the game proceeded well, with Bertilak being the meat deliverer, and Gawain delivering the kisses Lady Bertilak bestowed upon him faithfully.
In the third day, Gawain was trading the Lady’s kisses for Bertilak’s fox meat, but not girdle she had earlier given him, because he had vowed to her that he would not. This happened to be Gawain’s only mistake, as we see in the Fourth Fitt. Which concludes his trials when he faced off against the green knight for what he was thinking was the second time, but later discovered it was the third. In Gawain’s meetings with Green Knight, it is noted that two of the three trials were also the three part trials unto them (Besserman).
These were the three nights which were in the castle, and the three blows with an axe at the end. The sets of the three were considered to be magical in nearly every culture of the world, because they usually were the representatives of a basic family unit. However it was strange that there were to be only two sets of the three sub-trials instead of three, which required that I might have missed something in the first fitt, but I could not have found even a hint that trial of beheading the Green Knight, had three divisional parts.
In the last trial, Green Knight swung for three times at Gawain’s neck and finally nicking him during the third swipe. By having given the three blows, Green Knight revealed that he was Bertilak, and explained to Gawain that each blow was representing every night spent in the castle. Gawain’s only mistake was not that of mentioning the girdle to Bertilak, for which he had been nicked with the axe. Gawain would not accept that he had passed the three tests, and that, in Bertilak’s eyes, was even a further proof that he had passed. Gawain’s perfect honesty and humility rendered him worthy to receiving wisdom that Bertilak had to offer (Greenblatt).

Chinese New Year, Spring Festival or the Lunar New Year, is the festival that celebrates the beginning of a new year on the traditional lunisolar Chinese calendar. In Chinese culture and Asian countries within Sinosphere, the festival is also commonly referred to as Spring Festival as the spring season in the lunisolar calendar traditionally starts with lichun, the first of the twenty-four solar terms which the festival celebrates around the time of the Lunar New Year. Marking the end of winter and the beginning of the spring season, observances traditionally take place from New Year’s Eve, the evening preceding the first day of the year to the Lantern Festival, held on the 15th day of the year. The first day of Chinese New Year begins on the new moon that appears between 21 January and 20 February.
Chinese New Year is one of the most important holidays in China, and has strongly influenced Lunar New Year celebrations such as the Losar of Tibet, and of China's neighbouring cultures, including the Korean New Year, and the of Vietnam. It is also celebrated worldwide in regions and countries that house significant Overseas Chinese or Sinophone populations, including Taiwan, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia, the Philippines, Mauritius, and Canada as well as in North America and Europe.
The lunisolar Chinese calendar determines the date of Chinese New Year. The calendar is also used in countries that have been influenced by, or have relations with, China – such as Korea, Japan, Taiwan, and Vietnam, though occasionally the date celebrated may differ by one day or even one moon cycle due to using a meridian based on a different capital city in a different time zone or different placements of intercalary months. The Chinese calendar defines the lunar month containing the winter solstice as the eleventh month, which means that Chinese New Year usually falls on the second new moon after the winter solstice . In more than 96 percent of the years, Chinese New Year's Day is the closest date to a new moon to lichun on 4 or 5 February, and the first new moon after dahan . In the Gregorian calendar, the Chinese New Year begins at the new moon that falls between 21 January and 20 February.

How has blueberry growing changed over the years?
Blueberries
The blueberry is one of North America's native fruits. The continent produces 90 percent of the world's blueberries. Harvest time runs from mid-April to the beginning of October. July is the height of the season. In the United States, it is known as National Blueberry Month.
Many tasty dishes can be made from blueberries, including pies, breads, jellies, and jams. Top your morning cereal with some fresh blueberries. Or serve them by themselves or mixed with other fruit and pour on cream, milk, or yogurt. They are wonderful to eat fresh off the stem too.
History of the Blueberry
American Indians showed early settlers where to find wild blueberries. They may have brought a dessert called sautauthig to the first Thanksgiving feast in the 1600s. This pudding is made from dried blueberries, cracked corn, and water.
In the early 1900s, Elizabeth White and Dr. Frederick Coville began to farm wild highbush blueberries. Later, plant breeders developed the new kinds of larger, hardy berries that you see in grocery stores. You can still find wild blueberries, often in hilly or mountainous areas.
Blueberry Farms Today
Today, you can pick your own blueberries at self-pick farms. Some of them even let you eat berries while you pick.
Answer: well they were just eaten how they were but now people are making stuff out of them.

Can someone explain the meaning of this quote: "It wasn’t only wickedness and scheming that made people unhappy, it was confusion and misunderstanding; above all, it was the failure to grasp the simple truth that other people are as real as you. And only in a story could you enter these different minds and show how they had an equal value. That was the only moral a story need have." -Atonement Ian Mcewan
Answer:
It means that in life we tend to only see everything from our perspective. We are unable to look into other peoples lives and see why they are the way they are. But in stories we are allowed a looked into why people act a certain way. Books show us the trauma and the trials that make other people the way that they are.
Explanation:
the meaning of this quote: "It wasn’t only wickedness and scheming that made people unhappy, it was confusion and misunderstanding means that in life we tend to only see everything from our perspective. We are unable to look into other peoples lives and see why they are the way they are.
What are the difference between happy and unhappy ?In life there are two kinds of people exist such as the happy and the unhappy people which We come across each type of person everyday.
There are so many miserable people, who are always complaining about everything, unsatisfied with everything they have while there are some optimistic people who always look at the glass as half full and are constantly seeking more out of life.
A sense of purpose is what drives happy people and intimidates unhappy people. Life can either be something you embrace or something you hide from.
There are not as many happy people in the world as we would like, and thus, we have negative energy cast upon us on a daily basis.
