.Answer choices for the above question
building supplies
electric tools
out of plywood
scattered about
Scene 1
[Lights up at a large home improvement store. Dad and Will are loading up on wood, nails, paint, and more. ]
DAD: Plywood, two-by-fours, paint, shingles for the roof, carpeting. ...What else do we need?
WILL: We need stuff to make it weatherproof, and some kind of insulation. And landscaping material.
DAD: Will, there’s no need to landscape. No one’s going to see it behind the house.
WILL: They’ll see it, Dad. It’s their new home—their first home—and it should look good when they get here. They need bushes and grass just like everyone else—more than everyone else. This has to be perfect or they won’t be allowed to live with us.
DAD: Okay, grass and bushes, but later. We have to build this thing first. [He shakes his head in disbelief, but smiles. ]I knew that fostering would be hard work, but this is a ton of effort. Who knew that a couple of little ones would need so much room?
WILL: They can be in the family room with us most of the time, but they need their own space, too. Just like me and Davis. Hey—we need paintbrushes. Davis destroyed ours when he made that volcano for school. [They exit left, happily, as the lights go down. ]
Scene 2
[Lights up in a backyard. The building supplies now litter the stage: sawhorses, electric tools, hammers, and an overflowing toolbox. Will and Dad have built a number of large, flat, square shapes out of plywood. The shapes are scattered about in disarray. ]
WILL: But you said you wanted pliers, Dad—
DAD: Long-nosed pliers, Will. I need to hold this little pin, and I can’t get my fingers in the—
WILL: Here they are—but you could use a screwdriver—
DAD: Got it! Okay, so why don’t we put the floor here? We have to put that in place before we build the walls.
[They carry and then set down a flat piece that has short legs on each corner, making a platform. ]
DAD: Perfect. Now for the walls.
WILL: Are you sure we’re doing this right?
DAD: Pretty sure. [Dad drags another heavy, flat piece of plywood, grunting as he moves it. ]Once we attach the walls, all we have to do is the roof. Pshew. Will—help me with this. You have to hold it upright.
[Dad works to secure the wall. ]
DAD: Great! Only three more and a roof left to go. We have to hustle, though. The little ones are coming home in only a few hours. Will, this is a lot of responsibility, being a foster family. You and your brother will have to step up to the plate and help take care of these little guys. Are you sure you and Davis are ready for this?
WILL: Of course. It was our idea, Dad, remember? We’ll help feed them and bathe them and teach them everything. It’ll be fine .
DAD: Okay. Hand me a new drill bit—I broke the last one in this first wall. No, not those, the thinner ones. No, not those. ...
[They continue to struggle with the building as the lights go down. ]
Scene 3
[Lights up as Dad and Will stand center stage, close together to block the sight of their finished project. Will yells and waves to Mom and Davis offstage right. ]
WILL: We’re back here!
DAVIS: [He enters, leading a large, curly-haired dog. ]Wait until you see them—I love them already! They couldn’t wait to come home and—you built them a doghouse!
WILL: ta-DA! [Will reveals the doghouse. ]
DAVIS: That’s awesome!
MOM: Here they are! [Mom enters with a large box, the top open. She sets it down carefully. ]Now, remember, the puppies are here only until they get adopted into forever homes. As foster parents, we have to teach them how to be good dogs and then say goodbye to them when the time comes.
WILL: [Lifting out a puppy. ]Come see your new home! [Pauses and looks at the doghouse. ]Uh, Dad? We forgot to make a door!!
[Lights out. ]

Answer: I find drawing really enjoyable a lot. When I draw, it just takes my mind off of the bad stuff and helps me cool down. When we draw, we can think of lots and lots of creative ideas and maybe show it to others! Also, drawing can help us get better with our emotions, inspire us, or possibly tell stories! Another advantage of drawing is increasing our memories. For example, if you had an upcoming test, exam, etc, you can draw your notes or answers in some sort of form you like, to help remember it.

Explanation:
The story "Hans in Luck" by the Brothers Grimm revolves around the main character's personality. The character Hans easily believes what others tell him. That means Hans is a gullible person. Which line in this excerpt from the story supports the idea that Hans is gullible?
This question is missing the excerpt. I've found the complete question online. The excerpt is as follows:
Seven long years he had worked hard for his master. At last he said, "Master, my time is up; I must go home and see my poor mother once
more: so pray pay me my wages and let me go." And the master said, "You have been a faithful and good servant, Hans, so your pay shall be handsome." Then he gave him a lump of silver as big as his head.
Hans took out his pocket-handkerchief, put the piece of silver into it, threw it over his shoulder, and jogged off on his road homewards. As he went lazily on, dragging one foot after another, a man came in sight, trotting gaily along on a capital horse.
"Ahl" said Hans aloud, "what a fine thing it is to ride on horseback! There he sits as easy and happy as if he was at home, in the chair by his fireside; he trips against no stones, saves shoe-leather, and gets on he hardly knows how."
Hans did not speak so softly but the horseman heard it all, and said, "Well, friend, why do you go on foot then?"
“Ah!" said he. "I have this load to carry: to be sure it is silver, but it is so heavy that I can't hold up my head, and you must know it hurts my shoulder sadly."
"What do you say of making an exchange?" said the horseman. “I will give you my horse, and you shall give me the silver, which will save you a great deal of trouble in carrying such a heavy load about with you."
"With all my heart," said Hans: "but as you are so kind to me. I must tell you one thing--you will have a weary task to draw that silver about with you."
However, the horseman got off, took the silver, helped Hans up, gave him the bridle into one hand and the whip into the other, and said,
"When you want to go very fast, smack your lips loudly together, and cry Jip!"
Answer:
The line that supports the idea that Hans is gullible is:
"With all my heart," said Hans: "but as you are so kind to me. I must tell you one thing--you will have a weary task to draw that silver about with you."
Explanation:
A gullible person is someone who can be easily persuaded to believe something. In the excerpt above, we can see that Hans is a gullible man. He does not see through the man's kind words. He does not realize that the man knows very well the silver is much more valuable than the horse. Hans believes in the man's kindness and is even sorry that the man will have to carry such a heavy piece of silver with him after giving Hans his horse. The line that supports that idea is:
"With all my heart," said Hans: "but as you are so kind to me. I must tell you one thing--you will have a weary task to draw that silver about with you."
In the context of this story, how do people face death? Cite evidence from this text, your own experience, and other literature, art, or history in your answer.
Hello. You did not inform the story to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.
In general, we can see that people face death with a certain fear. This fear is the result of unpredictability about what happens after death, in addition to the sadness and loneliness it causes. In my personal life, I have seen many people using religion to face death and support themselves when it appears. However, in the literature, we have very different examples. In "The Devil" for example, we can see the protagonist of the story seeing death with indifference and wanting to free himself, but not caring about the death of others. In "The monkey's paw," on the other hand, we see the characters trying to cheat death and fail.
