- first person point of view. - this is not the right answer. If the sentence was from a first person point of view, it would say "I want to go..." or "I would rather go to..."

Lines 45–52: Which details in the text suggest that the narrator of this story is not reliable? What is it about this narrator that makes him seem unreliable?
This question is about "the tale tail heart"
Answer and Explanation:
The narrator is not a reliable narrator because he narrates the facts in first person, that way we only know what happens from his point of view, we have no other point of view to compare and have a panoramic view of all the facts, that is, our conclusions are manipulated by the narrator, he can lie and we will never know.
Furthermore, the narrator seems to be an unreliable person, since he has negative thoughts about the old man, who does not distrust him. This means that he behaves positively in the presence of the old man, but reveals a maleficent nature when he is alone with his thoughts.

Answer:
When coping with a "mean kid", it is important to remember that they are humans with feelings too. I would try to figure out why they are being mean. they might be mean to other students because of problems at home. if this is the case, then I would make time to get to know them and try to become their friend. if they see that people care about them and are willing to give their time to get to know them, then the "mean kid" may be less likely to be rude to other students.

Why does the author include information about the dry climate?
Answer:
C) To explain why people in the region have to feed their animals fish
Explanation:
The given question refers to an excerpt from The Travels of Marco Polo:
And let me tell you something else. They have sheep here that have no ears, nor even ear-holes; but in the place where ears ought to be they have little horns. They are small creatures and very pretty. And here is something else that may strike you as marvelous: their domestic animals—sheep, oxen, camels, and little ponies—are fed on fish. They are reduced to this diet because in all this country and in all the surrounding regions there is no grass; but it is the driest place in the world.
The options you were given are the following:
A) to explain why sheep have horns but no ears
B) to explain why sheep in the region are so small
C) to explain why people in the region have to feed their animals fish
D) why there are such large quantities of fish available
The correct answer is C. Sheep feed on grass. The climate of the described region is so dry that there is no more grass, so sheep no longer have anything to eat. Instead of letting them die, the people began feeding them fish. The rest of the options are not consequences of the dry climate.
Answer:
To explain why people in the region have to feed their animals fish

Have you ever been hurt by someone's words? Are you still holding on
to that hurt? Well, I learned the hard way that forgiving others is
something we do for ourselves, not for them. Years ago, my cousin
said some insulting things to me. I stayed angry for a long time. I didn't
return his calls or send him pictures of my kids growing up. I thought |
was hurting him, but I was only hurting myself. I was becoming an
angry, selfish person. Finally, I ran into my cousin at a family picnic. 1
decided to let go of my anger. As we hugged, I realized that I was doing
myself a favor by forgiving. Maybe that's a favor you can do for
yourself, as well.
Which statement best describes the author's purpose?
A. To persuade readers to agree with her side of the argument
O B. To inspire readers to let go of hurts from the past
C. To inform readers about the effects of being unforgiving
D. To explain to readers how she and her cousin made up
Answer:
C.- To inspire readers to let go of hurts from the past
Explanation:
Because you can't just hold on to it forever its going to keep on bothering you in the long run so people are going to have to forgive that person sooner or later.
