Read the following excerpt from Levitt and Dubner's Freakonomics.
The bagel data also reflect how much personal mood seems to affect honesty. Weather, for instance, is :
major factor. Unseasonably pleasant weather inspires people to pay at a higher rate. Unseasonably cold
weather, meanwhile, makes people cheat prolifically; so do heavy rain and wind. Worst are the holidays.
The week of Christmas produces a 2 percent drop in payment rates again, a 15 percent increase in theft,
an effect on the same magnitude, in reverse, as that of 9/11. Thanksgiving is nearly as bad; the week of
Valentine's Day is also lousy, as is the week straddling April 15. There are, however, a few good holidays:
the weeks that include the Fourth of July, Labor Day, and Columbus Day. The difference in the two sets of
holidays? The low-cheating holidays represent little more than an extra day
off from work. The high-
cheating holidays are fraught
with miscellaneous anxieties and the high expectations of loved ones.

Plastic Bottle
by A. Gautam

My form is simply boring
I want to be elastic—
I hate to be just storing.
I'm tired of being plastic.

They do not recycle me.
I am left out in the sun.
Forever they let me be,
as such, I just can't go on!

Sometimes I freeze for hours,
and often I am crushed.
As I stare at the flowers,
I wish I was just flushed.

How I hate the garbage can!
And even more, the ceiling fan.
Anything that ever ran,
and how my life began!

A sign language is a type of language in which people use their hands, faces, and bodies to communicate. While ASL is the main sign language used by deaf communities in the United States and parts of Canada, its use is not limited to that population. In fact, ASL is a valuable language for many hearing people to learn. One way learning American Sign Language is invaluable is because it makes communication possible for many different people. For instance, some people who can hear but cannot speak, or have difficulty speaking, find ASL very useful. And many hearing people who have friends or family members who are hearing impaired often learn ASL to better understand or be understood by their loved ones It's also uplifting to learn American Sign Language because it is a very rich, complex language. The shape, placement, and motion of the hands, as well as facial expressions and body movements all play an important part. They give the language beauty.

Fog by Carl Sandburg

"The fog comes
on little cat feet.
It sits looking
Over harbor ane city
on silent haunches
and then moves on"

"The love song of J. Alfred Prufrock by T.S. Eliot

The yellow fog that rubs its back upon the window-panes
The yellow smoke that rubs its muzzle on the window-panes
Licked its tongue into the corners of the evening
Lingered upon the pools that stand in drains
Let fall upon its back the soot that falls from chimneys
Slipped by the terrace, made a sudden leap,
And seeing that it was a soft October night.
Curled once about the house and fell alseep."

how does the story “The Wonderful Tea Kettle” use imagery to advance the theme

I MET a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert ... Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage [face] lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which still survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
