Which point of view is used in this excerpt from Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson? He was a very silent man by custom. All day he hung round the cove or upon the cliffs with a brass telescope; all evening he sat in a corner of the parlour next the fire and drank rum and water very strong. Mostly he would not speak when spoken to, only look up sudden and fierce and blow through his nose like a fog-horn; and we and the people who came about our house soon learned to let him be. Every day when he came back from his stroll he would ask if any seafaring men had gone by along the road. At first we thought it was the want of company of his own kind that made him ask this question, but at last we began to see he was desirous to avoid them. When a seaman did put up at the Admiral Benbow (as now and then some did, making by the coast road for Bristol) he would look in at him through the curtained door before he entered the parlour; and he was always sure to be as silent as a mouse when any such was present. For me, at least, there was no secret about the matter, for I was, in a way, a sharer in his alarms. He had taken me aside one day and promised me a silver fourpenny on the first of every month if I would only keep my “weather-eye open for a seafaring man with one leg” and let him know the moment he appeared. Often enough when the first of the month came round and I applied to him for my wage, he would only blow through his nose at me and stare me down, but before the week was out he was sure to think better of it, bring me my four-penny piece, and repeat his orders to look out for “the seafaring man with one leg.” A. first-person point of view B. second-person point of view C. third-person limited point of view D. third-person omniscient point of view

Read the excerpt from President Ronald Reagan’s Address at Moscow State University.
But progress is not foreordained. The key is freedom—freedom of thought, freedom of information, freedom of communication. The renowned scientist, scholar, and founding father of this university, Mikhail Lomonosov, knew that. "It is common knowledge," he said, "that the achievements of science are considerable and rapid, particularly once the yoke of slavery is cast off and replaced by the freedom of philosophy." You know, one of the first contacts between your country and mine took place between Russian and American explorers. The Americans were members of Cook's last voyage on an expedition searching for an Arctic passage; on the island of Unalaska, they came upon the Russians, who took them in, and together with the native inhabitants, held a prayer service on the ice.
In this excerpt, President Reagan expresses his opinion that the key to progress is freedom. This is
Answer:
A substantiated opinion because Reagan quotes an expert.
Explanation:

"It is very simple to be happy, but it is very difficult to be simple". Write a speech on the quote said by rabindranath tagore.
Happiness is one of the most important feelings for humanity. For this reason, we are always trying to be happy and looking for ways to achieve this feeling by allowing it to be present in our lives constantly.
This search for happiness is often the main reason why we cannot feel it. The search often leaves us unhappy, dissatisfied, sad. This is because we cannot understand happiness properly, let alone know where to find it. This makes it seem that being happy is complicated, however that is an incorrect thought, because happiness is simple.
Simplicity, on the other hand, is very difficult. We are constantly moving away from what is simple, because a life in real simplicity is difficult to please and we are too selfish to open the mother of our technology, our money, our expensive clothes, our consumerism and so many other perks that it can allow us passenger comfort, but it prevents us from living simply and consequently happy.
We grew up in an environment that influences us to always seek more. A better house, a better job, more shoes, more friends, more loves, because our society believes that this will make us happy, but happiness depends solely on ourselves in a simple, clear and objective way. We do not want to abandon these things, but happiness is not in them and that is why we are so dissatisfied.
We must then practice detachment from everything that is in excess in our lives, we will find happiness when we learn the difficult lesson of being simple and this will only be possible after we perform an even more difficult task, to know ourselves deeply , that way we will realize how little we need to be happy.
Michelle highlighted this sentence in her favorite Western paperback novel: “The bandit weaseled his way through the throng of women in hoop skirts and petticoats, making it nearly impossible for the sheriff and his posse to catch him before he hopped on the train.” How does the word “weaseled” contribute to the tone of the sentence? A It shows the author’s sympathy for the bandit. B It shows the author’s disdain for the bandit and his actions. C It provides a concrete description of the bandit’s appearance. D It provides a point of comparison so the reader can better understand the bandit.
Answer: C. It provides a concrete description of the bandit’s appearance.
Explanation: In literature, writers can use a wide variety of words to portray a character's actions or personality. The reader then imagines a scene that is closer to what the writer has in mind. Michelle used the verb "weasel" to contribute to the tone of the sentence, and imply that not only was the bandit passing through women, but he was sneaking and achieving his purpose by rudely making his way and scaping. This choice creates a better description of how he appeared in the scene.

Using the research you just completed, compose a well-written paragraph about a career choice in an area of growth that you find interesting. Be sure to include the following information: job title median pay skills needed education needed why the occupation is growing why you think this might be a good fit for you as a career Be sure to use correct grammar, transitions, and an introduction and a conclusion.
Answer:
The chosen career was in the area of information technology.
Explanation:
After researching possible professional areas that I could enter, I decided to choose an area that I felt had a vocation and interest, as well as an area that was on the rise and that would allow me to have a job capable of supporting myself. During this choice, I came across the area of information technology, which I believe is the area that I will choose.
Within the information technology, I believe that the position of programmer is what interests me the most, because in addition to having an adequate salary (about US $ 73 thousand per year in small and private companies), this professional never ceases to be required by the technological production centers.
To occupy this position, it is necessary to take a higher education course in information technology, in addition to specializations that promote technical knowledge in programming languages. As I have a lot of interest in programming and technology, even risking developing my own software, I believe that this profession is perfect for me, because it unites something of my interest, with something that offers me a promising future.
This profession is on the rise due to the fast consumption of technology that we are witnessing in our society. Every minute people are looking for faster and more efficient devices through software that allows for an admirable and increasingly technological operation.
Answer:Of the three career choices that I reviewed, I would choose to be a psychologist. It is a high-paying job with a median pay of $83,580 per year. The minimum education requirement for this job is a master’s degree in psychology. However, in most cases a doctoral degree in psychology is needed. Additionally, a psychologist should have good communication and observational skills and needs to have patience when dealing with people. This occupation is growing rapidly because more and more people are finding it difficult to cope with stress and seeking professional help to deal with their problems. I think I can be a good psychologist because my observational and analytical skills will enable me to help people deal with their problems.

HELP In no less than seventy-five words, explain some differences between the kind of memorization that is required in a game like “Telephone” and that which is required by a bard reciting The Odyssey. Comment on the effects of those differences for an oral society versus a literary one.
Explanation:
In games like telephone, words can be missheard, left out, added, changed, or exaggerated. Those mistakes are more likely to happen in an oral society than in a literary one. However, in a literary society, words can still be changed, though not as often, and can also be misspelled. In the long term though, if you want something to be remembered right, it is better to write it down.

Thus, after their ordeal they were determined more than ever to avoid the alternative of not preventing the return of the human beings.
