paragraph about why english language is global language now-days

help please.

Answer:

The first, and most obvious reason that English became widespread in the first place is because of the British Empire. ... So English then became an elitist language of sorts, spoken by those who were educated in literature, philosophy and poetry, much like French was back when it was the most widely spoken language.

Which statement most accurately describes Lemon Brown’s and Greg's actions in the excerpt?

The World's Fair
Based on the story, which statement would
Muybridge MOST LIKELY agree with?
We should concentrate on studying new fields of
science
It was 1893, and the future was all around,
confidently displayed at the World's
Columbian Exposition in Chicago, Illinois.
George had waited longingly to visit this fair-
not just a small country fair, but THE World's
fair, full of wonders
It was hard to believe that just the day before
George had woken up in his own bed on the
quiet farm outside Chicago. A breeze had
stirred the grass, and from his window he
could see across to the paddock, where a few
horses drifted lazily across the grass.
We can solve the problems of the future by looking
at the past.
We can learn more by looking closely at familiar
things.
We should examine history by applying new
technologies

Read the following paragraph and answer the questions below:
Firstly, Gilbert’s interest in time largely came from his want to have longer summers. In the first paragraph, Gilbert realized, “... the flashing instant before the winter stole over them again and Father took to the sea once more” (line 6). This shows that he felt like he had a very minimal amount of time with his father. Only having a small time to interact with his father made him want to have longer summers. In addition, Gilbert noticed that, “It was the end of August now, and lessons would soon begin again, and each day felt like something was drawing to a close” (line 266). Gilbert and his friends had just restored the handcar and had not decided where to take it yet, when it became apparent that summer was nearly over.

Write a letter as if you are a foreign exchange student living in America. Pretend you are writing to your family in your homeland and you must explain an American custom they know nothing at all about.

To write a convincing letter, you must examine the American custom through the eyes of an outsider. What may seem perfectly natural and logical to us may seem silly to someone from a foreign country.

Think about what foreign students must think when they are first confronted with American children dressing in rags and outlandish costumes, going out knocking on doors begging for candy, and threatening to pull a trick on the people who have no candy for them. Or what about American customs at Christmas and Thanksgiving?

Your letter must be a minimum of three paragraphs containing 5-7 sentences each.

we are one,
Bright as a sun, and bold as an eagle
Believer's Hymn for the Republic – by Amanda Gordon

12 score and 3 years ago, to be exact,
Our founders dared to declare
The world's most revolutionary act:
A pact sworn for liberty and equality.
Out of many, was born one people;
A teeming nation made of nations,
At its very foundation a dream
For life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.



Today, we gather so that our Founders' words do not go diminished.
But also so that the work does not go unfinished.
For it's not just in a declaration of independence
But the everyday declaration of its descendants
That make a people equal.



It is our right and our role
To remember these words scratched on a scroll,
So we may live them and heal our nation whole.
We roll up our sleeves, we believe in the dream,
And these American stories, in the glory of the struggle,
For it is from our struggle that comes our nation's strength,
For the lengths that we fight for what is right
Is the fullest measure of our country's might.



And while we cannot shake or cast aside our past,
Every day we write the future. Together we sign it,
Together we declare it, we share it,
For this truth marches on inside each of us:



Americans know one another by our love of liberty.
When in fact, we are liberated by our love for one another.
We understand that a house divided cannot stand.
So let us make a pact to be the country that acts
As compassionate as we are courageous.



In the declaration's pages, we write a new order for the ages,
Where out of many, we are one,
Bright as a sun, and bold as an eagle,
A nation of all people, by all people,
For all people.





Let this fourth of July
Move forth our cry to redeem the dream.
As we remember those words forever ignited
That we the people have so long heard and recited.
That we are right to stand
But are revolutionary when we stand united.

Read this passage from The Jungle Book. There was very little talking at the Rock. The cubs tumbled over one another in the center of the circle where their mothers and fathers sat, and now and again a senior wolf would go quietly up to a cub, look at him carefully, and return to his place on noiseless feet. Sometimes a mother would push her cub far out into the moonlight, to be sure that he had not been overlooked. Akela from his rock would cry: "Ye know the Law—ye know the Law! Look well, O Wolves!" And the anxious mothers would take up the call: "Look—look well, O Wolves!" How are the mother wolves affected by the Law of the Jungle? They ignore their cubs at the top of Council Rock. They sometimes push their cubs away if they are naughty. They tumble over the cubs in the circle’s center. They are careful to show their cubs to Pack leaders.
