This shocked me because I did not know that Uncle Sahil almost had quit playing and that he still spent so much time practicing.

The beautiful music did not happen by accident and was the result of hard work.

I decided that I would spend more time practicing because I wanted to be able to play well, and for the next six months, I worked as hard as I could on my music.

I was pleased to find out that the harder I worked, the better I became.

Finally, I was ready to do something that I had dreamed about.

The Dreamer

Dreams are beautiful. They go beyond your imagination and create a world so special that you start living in it. I was a dreamer once, so am I today. I still have the same dream that I once did as a young boy. The problem is that I grew but my dream did not. I always wanted to be an artist. I love colors, shades, the lines, and the smooth texture of canvas which gave life to what seemed to be a lifeless picture.

It all began in a boring math class. I never liked numbers as they never made any sense to me. For me, they never spoke a word. I started making ducks out of 5s and watermelons out of 0s before the math teacher caught me! The first time Mr. Potter warned me. But I could hardly sit through his classes. He caught me drawing once again in his class and that was it. My parents were called. Those days, they believed that painters and artists were drop outs who could not find any job. This was not the end. They told my parents that I would fail miserably if I were to take up arts. This upset them more than me. My father was a reputed professional and he expected me to become like him one day. He never understood why I could see ducks where others saw 5. I tried explaining it to him, but I guess he did not understand it.

“Those lines and shades you talk about do not exist,” he said. I did not understand where these numbers existed. He wanted me to graduate and take up a good job while I wanted to live my dreams. The fight went on. On a few occasions, my precious easel would be broken and thrown away. I had such a difficult time getting them. He was not like this earlier. He always used to get my favorite sketch books when I was young. I guess after that meeting with Mr. Potter, he changed into a different man.

“A few dream to fly, a few to protect the country and a few others to work in a decent job. What if I dream of colors and brushes?” I asked my father when I had the courage to do so. “Fly, if you want to, you will reach the sky. Protect the country, if you want to, you will make me proud. But you cannot take up what the drop outs choose to do. You cannot paint. You cannot make a living out of it,” stood out his words.

I wanted to get into the prestigious Sir Francoire Arts College and learn art, the way experts did. But there seemed to be no way to it. I later studied numbers and took up a job. I still live with the same dream -- To be an artist, to live, and dream like one!

A.

B.

Dear (your friend)

How are you doing over there in Sweden? I hope everything is okay with you and your studies? I was very happy to get your letter dated 25th June 2014. I must tell you that the letter went a long way in filling the vacuum you left behind with your sudden departure to Europe to search for greener pasture. Atey I must also let you know that everyone is missing you dearly here in Nigeria.

Sometimes we your friends that is to say Osaze.Yemi and Kewe meet at the usual joint at Playball Viewing Centre at Maku Street where we used to watch English Premiership matches to talk about you fondly. We try to imagine the type of life you will be living over there with their kind of weather.I hear it is always cold down there being a Scandinavian country and that the citizens walk about wearing thick clothes, smoking and drinking whisky because of the harsh weather. What a life!

I must tell you that I appreciate your letter because it was informative and very timely I must say. I read the contents over and over again; taking my time to make sure nothing was left behind. I enjoyed the most the third paragraph where you narrated how you were recently embarrassed at an eatery for not knowing how to use folks and knives. I laughed so much at that story that my stomach almost burst. Well, it is a pity that you allowed that to happen to you because I remember that I encouraged you to do something about it before you travelled but you took my advice for granted. I believe that you have learnt your lesson now. I will advise you as a friend to go learn how to eat with cutlery now because you are no more in Nigeria where most of our food are finger food you know. It is not too late to learn how to eat with cutlery.

Now, in the letter you sent you want me to join you in Sweden and I must say that am very delighted to read that part I must confess. I use this opportunity to thank you for being very thoughtful and nice to me among all your numerous friends. But Atey am sorry to decline your offer of invitation and I want you to please try to understand and bear with me.1 know you will be itching to know why I declined your offer of invitation .The reasons are that my mother is sick and needs my attention urgently. As the first son I have to be around her all the time, am currently gainfully employed in the country after many years of searching for a job and lastly the security situation has improved because the president is doing his best to ensure that the citizens are well protected.

I wish you the best in Sweden and please don't forget to reply to my letter. Love you and take care.

Which of these BEST describes GameOver55's point of view about video games?

A: Video games have negative effects on teenagers.

B: Video games are not as much fun as playing outside.

C: Video games can lead to obesity in teenagers.

D: Video games cause too many teenagers to fail out of school.


Answers

Answer:

A: Video games have negative effects on teenagers.

Explanation:

The question what the author's overall opinion on video games is. So, the reader should find the main idea of the passage. Throughout the text, the author brings up many problems video games cause like lack of activity, lack of friends, and worse grades. The author also brings up more effects video games have. Since the majority of the text is about overall negative effects on teenagers it is clear that A is correct. Additionally, much of the author's dictation has negative connotations. So, it is safe to say that they do not support video games. This is another indicator of the author's viewpoint.

some residents of the suburbs of vredehoek and devil's peak were instructed to vacate their homes, schools in the area were shut and several streets were closed to traffic. in active voice​

Answers

Answer:

Some residents of the suburbs of vredehoek and devil's peak have moved out of their homes and closed schools and streets to traffic.

Explanation:

The active voice is present in sentences where the subject of the sentence is doing the action indicated by the verb and not suffering the action presented by the verb.

The subject of a sentence is the word the verb is referring to, the verb is the word that indicates an action or a state. In this case, we can see that in the sentence presented in the question above, the verb is the words "were instructed", "shut" and "closed". The subject of this sentence is "add residents". In this sentence, the subject is not doing the action of the verbs, but is suffering this action. Therefore, to pass the sentence to the active voice, we could present it as:

"Some residents of the suburbs of vredehoek and devil's peak have moved out of their homes and closed schools and streets to traffic."
