Use specific examples from the short story to support your analysis of the conflict, of how the protagonist responds to the conflict, and of what this reveals about his or her character. Story: Rules of the Game

Answers

Answer:

The conflict within the rules of the game with Amy Tan was that Waverly wanted to be more independent and more free and out of her mother's grip. Waverly, in the end, became rude and disrespectful. Her mother had won against her, making Waverly become annoyed and she gave up. Waverly had run away from her mother and was on the streets. She wanted to be free but note she's only a kid, so she ran  away. She realized she had nowhere to go and stay. So, she went home and back with her mother. We can tell that the mother only wants what's best for her daughter, but Waverly doesn't want anything to deal with her mother. Waverly seems rude and selfish, while her mother only wants the best and wants her child with her. Any mother would want their child with them and wants them to respect their elders.

The Book of Dragons

Chapter III The Deliverers of Their Country, an excerpt

By E. Nesbit

It all began with Effie's getting something in her eye. It hurt very much indeed, and it felt something like a red-hot spark—only it seemed to have legs as well, and wings like a fly. Effie rubbed and cried—not real crying, but the kind your eye does all by itself without your being miserable inside your mind—and then she went to her father to have the thing in her eye taken out. Effie's father was a doctor, so of course he knew how to take things out of eyes.

When he had gotten the thing out, he said: "This is very curious." Effie had often got things in her eye before, and her father had always seemed to think it was natural—rather tiresome and naughty perhaps, but still natural. He had never before thought it curious.

Effie stood holding her handkerchief to her eye, and said: "I don't believe it's out." People always say this when they have had something in their eyes.

"Oh, yes—it's out," said the doctor. "Here it is, on the brush. This is very interesting."

Effie had never heard her father say that about anything that she had any share in. She said: "What?"

The doctor carried the brush very carefully across the room, and held the point of it under his microscope—then he twisted the brass screws of the microscope, and looked through the top with one eye.

"Dear me," he said. "Dear, dear me! Four well-developed limbs; a long caudal appendage; five toes, unequal in lengths, almost like one of the Lacertidae, yet there are traces of wings." The creature under his eye wriggled a little in the castor oil, and he went on: "Yes; a bat-like wing. A new specimen, undoubtedly. Effie, run round to the professor and ask him to be kind enough to step in for a few minutes."

"You might give me sixpence, Daddy," said Effie, "because I did bring you the new specimen. I took great care of it inside my eye, and my eye does hurt."

The doctor was so pleased with the new specimen that he gave Effie a shilling, and presently the professor stepped round. He stayed to lunch, and he and the doctor quarreled very happily all the afternoon about the name and the family of the thing that had come out of Effie's eye.

But at teatime another thing happened. Effie's brother Harry fished something out of his tea, which he thought at first was an earwig. He was just getting ready to drop it on the floor, and end its life in the usual way, when it shook itself in the spoon—spread two wet wings, and flopped onto the tablecloth. There it sat, stroking itself with its feet and stretching its wings, and Harry said: "Why, it's a tiny newt!"

The professor leaned forward before the doctor could say a word. "I'll give you half a crown for it, Harry, my lad," he said, speaking very fast; and then he picked it up carefully on his handkerchief.

"It is a new specimen," he said, "and finer than yours, Doctor."

It was a tiny lizard, about half an inch long—with scales and wings.

So now the doctor and the professor each had a specimen, and they were both very pleased. But before long these specimens began to seem less valuable. For the next morning, when the knife-boy was cleaning the doctor's boots, he suddenly dropped the brushes and the boot and the blacking, and screamed out that he was burnt.

And from inside the boot came crawling a lizard as big as a kitten, with large, shiny wings.

"Why," said Effie, "I know what it is. It is a dragon like the one St. George killed."

And Effie was right. That afternoon Towser was bitten in the garden by a dragon about the size of a rabbit, which he had tried to chase, and the next morning all the papers were full of the wonderful "winged lizards" that were appearing all over the country. The papers would not call them dragons, because, of course, no one believes in dragons nowadays—and at any rate the papers were not going to be so silly as to believe in fairy stories. At first there were only a few, but in a week or two the country was simply running alive with dragons of all sizes, and in the air you could sometimes see them as thick as a swarm of bees. They all looked alike except as to size. They were green with scales, and they had four legs and a long tail and great wings like bats' wings, only the wings were a pale, half-transparent yellow, like the gear-boxes on bicycles.

The text repeats the word children. How does this repetition serve the author's purpose? It emphasizes that it is easy for children to get immigration status. It reminds readers that young, innocent lives are being harmed by failed policies. It helps to convince readers that immigration laws for children should be changed. It helps to convince readers that more lawyers are needed to defend children.

Answers

Read the excerpt from "Children of the Drug Wars."

To ensure this isn't a sham process, asylum officers and judges must be trained in child-sensitive interviewing techniques to help elicit information from fearful, traumatized youngsters. All children must also be represented by a volunteer or government-funded lawyer.

Kids in Need of Defense, a nonprofit that recruits pro bono lawyers to represent immigrant children and whose board I serve on, estimates that 40 percent to 60 percent of these children potentially qualify to stay under current immigration laws and do, if they have a lawyer by their side. The vast majority do not. The only way to ensure we are not hurtling children back to circumstances that could cost them their lives is by providing them with real due process.

The text repeats the word children. How does this repetition serve the author's purpose?.

O It emphasizes that it is easy for children to get

immigration status.

O It reminds readers that young, innocent lives are

being harmed by failed policies.

O It helps to convince readers that immigration laws

for children should be changed.

O It helps to convince readers that more lawyers are

needed to defend children.

Answer:

It reminds reader that young, innocent lives are being harmed by failed process

Explanation:

According to the excerpt from "Children of the Drug Wars", it is stated that for the fight against drugs in kids not to be a sham, certain measures need to be put in place, such as training asylum officers and judges in asking sensitive questions to the kids and making sure the children are well represented.

Furthermore, a non-profit organisation, Kids in Need of Defense provides pro bono lawyers who represent the kids and help grant them asylum to enable them escape their terrible neighborhood.

Therefore, the repetition of the word "children" helps serve the author's purpose it reminds reader that young, innocent lives are being harmed by failed process.

Answer:

The workdone on a package of mass 10kg, is the product of the mass, acceleration due to gravity and the distance, d through which the package was moved

Explanation:

Given that:

Weight of package = 10kg

Workdone = Fd = Force * distance

Force = ;

The workdone on a package with mass is the product of the mass, acceleration due to gravity and the distance through which the package was moved.

Let distance, = d

Mass = 10kg

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8

Workdone = mgh

Hence, Workdone = 10*9.8*d = 98d

They are hypocrites because they hide in Christian concepts that they do not comply with, as they are judges of cultures different from theirs, besides being prejudiced against the neighborhood in which they live and they are racist.

Explanation:

Aunt Alexandra's missionary society women are characterized as hypocritical people. They are Christian and progressive, but they usually judge the African societies they work for by claiming that they are disorganized, sinful and "poor", and these societies have a very well organized system.

In addition, these ladies are racist and prejudiced, treating their neighbors as inferior beings and worthless.

According to the text, what does Kennedy fear will be the reaction in the wake of the kings death.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Senator Robert Kennedy learned about Dr. Martin Luther King's death when he was about to speak to an audience made up mostly of African Americans. Kennedy told them about the great leader's death. He feared the crowd would react with violence due to anger and a need for revenge. However, he advised them not to. Kennedy said he could understand their anger, since he had felt the same way when his brother was murdered years earlier. But he claimed that anger and revenge were not what America needed:

"What we need in the United States is not division; what we need in the United States is not hatred; what we need in the United States is not violence and lawlessness, but is love and wisdom, and compassion toward one another, and a feeling of justice toward those who still suffer within our country, whether they be white or whether they be black."

Senator Kennedy was himself shot to death a couple of months later.
