Your friend has written to you to ask for advice on how to be a successful student. Write a letter to your friend advising him/her what he/she should do to be a successful student.
Answer:
Dear, Friend
The best way to be a successful student is to focus. Really pay attention to what the teacher/ pupil is saying. I would also advise you to take detailed notes! Especially on things your not quite understanding. Taking notes is not writing down ever word but writing bullet points of what you heard or what you think is important. Another thing that will make you a successful student is to ASK QUESTIONS many students go through their day confused by what a teacher/ pupil said. Don't be afraid to raise your hand and ask for a more detailed explanation. Or tell them why you don't understand. The last thing I would advise you is to be respectful. Do Not back talk, argue, or be snarky. Try your best to be kind and respectful. Then. Your all set!
Sincerely, Me
Explanation:
In this activity, you'll read and analyze a poem called "The Bells" by Edgar Allan Poe. You will write short answers to a series of questions about how word choice and literary devices in the poem contribute to the tone, mood, meaning, and theme. Then you'll describe how "The Bells" fits into the category of Gothic literature.
Answer:
The use of words and literary devices allows the author to provide a melancholy tone in his work. In addition to providing meanings for the different conceptions and concepts that we build throughout our lives. In addition, the poem addresses topics such as the unpredictability of the future, the passage of time, fear of death and even death itself.
The poem fits into the Gothic literature exactly because it brings this rambling about death, the haunting, the discomfort and the melancholy.
Explanation:
"The Bells" is one of the best known poems written by Edgar Allan Poe. In this poem he shows how life is fleeting, how things change in meaning and how our age and experience in life change our expectations, fears and interpretations.
The poem shows the meaning of bells during different stages of someone's life. In this case, the author uses several metaphors, honomatopeias and allegories, showing how in the youth the bells are present in moments of joy, fun, construction and positive expectations, however, from the moment when the human being gets older and the unpredictability of the future and the imminent arrival of death become more and more frequent thoughts, the sounds of the bells become agonizing, melancholy, threatening and somber.

How to score good marks in exams of class 9th
Answer:
Practice Practice Practice
Understand what you are doing (don't just memorize)
Explanation:
Please understand and don't just memorize concepts. This will save you so much time in exam because if you understand the concept then you can apply your knowledge to many different kinds of questions whereas if you memorize it and don't necessarily know the concept well, then if the question is worded differently you won't know the answer.
So study to UNDERSTAND not just to memorize and do good on exam. Memorization is necessarily as well but if you understand something you won't have to memorize it.
Practice Practice Practice. Practice old exams, ask friend for help, browse the web for question, find actual sample problems, and practice practice practice.

Hello. This question is incomplete. the complete question is:
The Diary of a Young Girl
by Anne Frank (excerpt)
Sunday, June 14, 1942
I'll begin from the moment I got you, the moment I saw you lying on the table among my other birthday presents. (I went along when you were bought, but that doesn't count.)
On Friday, June 12, I was awake at six o'clock, which isn't surprising, since it was my birthday. But I'm not allowed to get up at that hour, so I had to control my curiosity until quarter to seven. When I couldn't wait any longer, I went to the dining room, where Moortje (the cat) welcomed me by rubbing against my legs. A little after seven I went to Daddy and Mama and then to the living room to open my presents, and you were the first thing I saw, maybe one of my nicest presents. Then a bouquet of roses, some peonies and a potted plant. From Daddy and Mama I got a blue blouse, a game, a bottle of grape juice, which to my mind tastes a bit like wine (after all, wine is made from grapes), a puzzle, a jar of cold cream, 2.50 guilders and a gift certificate for two books. I got another book as well, Camera Obscura (but Margot already has it, so I exchanged mine for something else), a platter of homemade cookies (which I made myself, of course, since I've become quite an expert at baking cookies), lots of candy and a strawberry tart from Mother. And a letter from Grammy, right on time, but of course that was just a coincidence.
Then Hanneli came to pick me up, and we went to school. During recess I passed out cookies to my teachers and my class, and then it was time to get back to work. I didn't arrive home until five, since I went to gym with the rest of the class. (I'm not allowed to take part because my shoulders and hips tend to get dislocated.) As it was my birthday, I got to decide which game my classmates would play, and I chose volleyball. Afterward they all danced around me in a circle and sang "Happy Birthday." When I got home, Sanne Ledermann was already there. Ilse Wagner, Hanneli Goslar and Jacqueline van Maarsen came home with me after gym, since we're in the same class.
Which memoir structure does this passage follow?
A.)Cause and effect B.)Flashback C.)Chronological D.)List
Answer:
B.)Flashback
Explanation:
A flashback is presented when the narration exposes events that happened in the past and that are being remembered by the narrator. An example of flashback can be seen in the excerpt above, where on June 14, 1942, the narrator is celebrating and narrating the events that happened on June 12, 1942.
In narrations, flachbacks are created through stimuli that provide memory. In the case of the excerpt above, the stimulus occurred when the narrator touched the diary and decided to write the events that occurred before that moment.

The authorial reticence used in the narration of the story _____. allows the narrator to exaggerate makes the reader more likely to believe the story holds the plot together hides the symbolism
Answer:
Authorial reticence allows the narrator to exaggerate
Explanation:
Authorial reticence can be defined as a term with lack of clear conclusion, description, opinions etc. about an event. More so, It allows the narrator to exaggerate and hence escape the judgement. Many readers abhor authorial reticence due to absence of clear judgement. Their authors are permitted to include fantasies and magics which will make readers concluding things based on their own perspectives. Furthermore, It leaves readers in the state of uncertainty and no clear conclusion is reached.
Answer:
Makes the reader more likely to believe the story
Explanation:
Good Luck!
Definition:
-authorial reticence
a literary technique in which the narrator of a story remains objective about the accuracy of the text
And every night, about midnight, I turned the latch of his door and opened it—oh so gently! And then, when I had made an opening sufficient for my head, I put in a dark lantern, all closed, closed, that no light shone out, and then I thrust in my head. Oh, you would have laughed to see how cunningly I thrust it in! I moved it slowly—very, very slowly, so that I might not disturb the old man's sleep. It took me an hour to place my whole head within the opening so far that I could see him as he lay upon his bed. Ha! Would a madman have been so wise as this? By visualizing the scene the reader can conclude that the narrator is gleeful. indifferent. irritated. curious.
Answer:
The correct option is A)
Explanation:
The tonality of the scene is gleeful, high spirited or cheerful.
The third and fifth sentences speak to this fact.
In the third sentence, the narrator states
"Oh, you would have laughed to see how cunningly I thrust in".
The sentence betrays that he or she has an expectation that if one could see him in the actual execution of this narrative, they most likely would find it hilarious. It is almost impossible to have an expectation of laughter from the audience when one themself are irritated or indifferent or curious.
In the fifth sentence, the narrator uses an exaggeration - "It took me an hour to place my whole head within the opening..."
Again, this gives the narrator away as being almost playful in his description of the event that took place, given that on the balance of probability, it is impossible for the action he describes to have actually taken an hour. Again, this is an attempt to project his cheerfulness onto the reader, given that exaggeration is one of the tools of comedy.
Cheers!

WILL GIVE 100 POINTS PLZZ HELP Read this excerpt from the speech. There is no strife, no prejudice, no national conflict in outer space as yet. Its hazards are hostile to us all. Its conquest deserves the best of all mankind, and its opportunity for peaceful cooperation may never come again. But why, some say, the moon? Why choose this as our goal? And they may well ask why climb the highest mountain? Why, 35 years ago, fly the Atlantic? Why does Rice play Texas? We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too. Why does Kennedy ask and answer these questions in his speech? It allows him to clarify his purpose: to persuade the audience to reconsider participation in the space race because of the potential conflicts it may cause. It gives him the opportunity to restate his purpose: to convince the audience that to lead in the space race is to affirm American values of risk taking and hard work. It helps him support his purpose: to convey to the audience the importance of weighing the pros and cons of entering the space race before committing resources to the program. It helps him advance his purpose: to demonstrate to the audience that the space race reflects the pioneer spirit that is an important part of the American legacy.
Answer: B. It gives him the opportunity to restate his purpose: to convince the audience that to lead in the space race is to affirm American values of risk taking and hard work.

Read this passage from the Ramayana by R. K. Narayan. What cultural context is being explored in this passage? The King looked woebegone and desperate, and the sage relented enough to utter a word of comfort. “You cannot count on the physical proximity of someone you love, all the time. A seed that sprouts at the foot of its parent tree remains stunted until it is transplanted. Rama will be in my care, and he will be quite well. But ultimately, he will leave me too. Every human being, when the time comes, has to depart and seek his fulfillment in his own way.”
