Write a STORY that illustrates the saying: He who laughs last, laughs longest

Answers

When I was a teenager I dreamed of winning a computer of the highest technology. I was passionate about technology and I loved seeing all the configurations of the launchings of the big industries. As my family couldn't afford this type of device, I decided to find a part-time job that would allow me to save money and buy the device I wanted.

The job I found was to be the mascot of a fast food restaurant in my city. I would have to wear a costume, which attracted some boys who were studying with me who went to my job just to laugh at my situation. Despite the shame I was not discouraged because my goal was greater than all of that.

My salary was extremely low and I couldn't get enough money for the computer I wanted, so I bought a used computer that was in a bad state, which made my school friends laugh even more at me, form nicknames and let me even more ashamed and with low self-esteem.

I was very discouraged, but decided to occupy my mind not to think about frustration, so I decided to renovate and repair the computer that I bought, I felt very good doing it and I managed to make it work efficiently. I started to fix other things and take courses on electronics that made my skills even better.

High school was pretty torturous because of the jokes about me, but eventually it ended and I got a place at the university of my study, where I majored in electronic engineering. Over time and a lot of dedication I got a job in the computer industry that I wanted so much in my teens and now I not only have access to all of them, but also participate in the elaboration and manufacture of each one. Nowadays I laugh at the jokes that my friends told me, I don't know what the future has in store for them, but for me it has a lot of success.

The Elizabethan theater as we know it develops slowly. In 1562 the play Gorboduc, the first English play to include blank verse, is performed in front of the queen at the Inner Temple in London. This is written by two gentlemen, Thomas Sackville (the future earl of Dorset) and Thomas Nor­ton, and leaves a lasting impression. Its tale of a kingdom torn between two heirs has great significance for the audience of the day. Other plays follow, drawing on classical themes as well as on ancient British and medieval history, written by (among others) John Heywood, John Pickering, and Lewis Wager. A sign of their success is the construction in 1567 of the first purpose-built theater, the Red Lion, built by John Brayne in Whitechapel.

Order of Events:

1. The first event was the play "Gorboduc" by Thomas Sackville and Thomas Norton, which was performed with the Queen in attendance in 1562.

2. The second event was the other classical plays that followed the above mentioned first English play.  These plays were" written by (among others) John Heywood, John Pickering, and Lewis Wager."

3. The last event happened in 1567, within five years of the staging of the first play with the construction of the Red Lion (a purpose-built theater) by John Brayne in Whitechapel.

Explanation:

The order of events is called the sequence or chronology.  Events depict  unusual or important things that happen, especially when they are planned and deliberately executed.  The absence of intentional planning and execution renders the occurrence or incident an historical accident.

Answer:

Identify the order in which the events occurred.

B. It is possible for people to be connected to more than one culture.

Explanation:

The short story "Mericans", by Sandra Cisneros, is narrated by Micaela. She and her brothers are of Mexican descent, but live in America. They can speak English, and instead of using their original names, they use similar, more American-sounding names or nicknames. Yet, they are still connected to their original culture. As they wait outside a church for their grandmother, Micaela notices the way a couple is dressed. She judges them according to the values taught to her by her Mexican family. Even though she and her brothers can already see themselves as "Mericans", they are in fact connected to more than just culture. When the lady speaks Spanish, the situation becomes even more ironic. The lady is judging them on their appearance, not knowing they can speak English, not seeing they are multicultural children.

"His powers of thinking rust and freeze" is a metaphor.

Explanation: Simile uses "like" or "as" in the comparison. A metaphor creates a mental image by associating characteristics of something like rusted metal with another thing-- like a brain-- that doesn't actually have the characteristics; it's just to help you imagine.

His Brain becomes as soft as Breeze is simile because a comparison is being made by using the word ‘as or like’.
His powers of thinking rust and freeze is a metaphor here a direct comparison is being made between his power of thinking to the rust and freeze.

Identify techniques employed in various mediums to enhance a story analyze the effects of techniques unique to each medium compare and contrast a written story with a version in another medium (i.E., audio or video)

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Identify techniques employed in various mediums to enhance a story analyze the effects of techniques unique to each medium compare a written story with a version in another medium (i.E., audio or video)

Mediums do affect the way we describe our story. As the world is advancing, new techniques are being generated to convey a story.

Writing a story required no one, but readers have to read the story by themselves. The story is written in a particular tone and theme, but the reader can inculcate its imagination into it, thus giving the readers an edge to enhance their imagination and creativity. Moreover, the reader can go back to the previous pages in case he did not get some points.

While telling a story is something different. It is an old way to convey a story. It requires a storyteller. But it helps the listener to indulge more in the story. The storyteller may change the story considering its audience. It is a short compare to reading a story. However, listeners can see the storyteller. Moreover, the storyteller can indulge his listeners more into the story through his verbal actions.

The myths and other stories told by the older people are an example of storytelling, but the story is changed by the time according to the needs. However, if the myths and stories are written in some proper way, they remain the same.

For example, Noah ark is a story that is being told by the people of old ages in their ways, but when this story is being written, it described each and everything making it more impactful.

A). Standing on one foot for a entire minute
B). Watching television
C). Treading water in the swimming pool
D). Playing a game of poker

Answers

Answer:

D). Playing a game of poker

Explanation:

Poker is a complex game that requires knowledge of the game, which has a set of rules that are not that easy to comprehend at first.

It also requires planning and strategy, which are abilities that scientists have found to cluster in the frontal parts of the brain.

For these reasons, playing a game of poker requires a high degree of cognitive ability, and this is why it is not surprising that many smart people like poker, and that people who are good at poker are often intelligent for many other cognitive tasks as well.

1. How does the "heavy slab" fall?
A. Pip learns that he is being hunted by debt collectors.
O B. Pip realizes that he has been harsh and ungrateful to Joe.
O C. Miss Havisham realizes that she has raised Estella to be cold-hearted.
O D. Pip learns his benefactor is "his" convict.

Answers

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

Great Expectations is a novel written by Charles Dickens. The novel centers the life of Pip, the protagonist of the novel.

In Chapter 38, Pip uses the metaphor of falling of heavy slab when he learned that his benefactor is 'his' convict. Throughout to this point of the novel, Pip considered that Miss Havisham is his benefactor because she wants him and Estella to be together. But when he learned that Estella has actually chose Drummel to be her husband and that his real benefactor is the convict, whom he helped years ago in the graveyard, he used the metaphor of falling of heavy slab.

So, the correct  answer is option D.

In the Lesson Activity “Puritan Literature” from the Colonial Literature tutorial, you read two works: As Weary Pilgrim, Now at Rest by Anne Bradstreet, and from Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God by Jonathan Edwards. Write an analysis comparing and contrasting the 2 views on death presented. Cite evidence from the texts that supports your claims.

Answers

These two texts represent the views that Puritans held regarding life, death and religion. Anne Bradstreet was one of the earliest poets in America, and through her writing, we can appreciate the thought that was common during this time period. In this poem, Bradstreet presents a positive view of death. She thinks of death as a relief from life, and believes that the person who dies is happy to be able to rest silently and peacefully. She says: "As weary pilgrim, now at rest,/Hugs with delight his silent nest." Moreover, she wishes that she will eventually experience this too, as this will mean the end of her pain and worries: "This body shall in silence sleep/Mine eyes no more shall ever weep/No fainting fits shall me assaile/nor grinding paines my body fraile."

On the other hand, Jonathan Edwards has a much more negative view in his text "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God." Edwards sees God as a vengeful and strict being. He believes he is interested in punishing people for their misdeeds, which leads him to believe that death is something to be feared, as it will lead people to their final judgement and thus their eternal punishment. He tells us that "when that due time, or appointed time comes, their foot shall slide. Then they shall be left to fall, as they are inclined by their own weight. God will not hold them up in these slippery places any longer, but will let them go; and then, at that very instant, they shall fall into destruction." Although Edwards shares many Puritan ideas with Bradstreet, his view of religion is a much more negative one.

In any composition writing, paragraphs and statements are arranged in such a way that they provide the best feel of what the topic is about. It also enables the organized representation of any given topic.

And in such compositions, there are certain use/ reasons on why certain things are done. Like for example, reasons are given or added in a sentence/ statement/ paragraph to show or tell why so and so happen. Reasons provide the "why" of things, giving us useful valid points on why things happen.

Examples are a way of proving a given point. It gives added information to make the point easier to understand.

Incidents are also used as they are proof of what has happened. They give the proof, but also with evidence that explains the actual circumstances giving validity to the claim made.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Heathcliff

Heathcliff is the main character in the story. He is a young orphan brought to Wuthering Heights by Mr. Earnshaw. A rivalry develops between Mr. Earnshaw's son, Hindley, and Heathcliff because Hindley feels that Mr. Earnshaw loves the adopted orphan more than his own son. Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw develop a close bond as they grow up together. When Catherine chooses to marry Edgar Linton, Heathcliff runs away from home. When he returns after three years, he is a wealthy man who is determined to destroy the Earnshaws and the Lintons. He manipulates events to gain control of both Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange.

He is a devoted, passionate lover who becomes almost inhuman in seeking revenge on all who wronged him. He comes across as bitter, sullen, and depressed through most of the second half of the story.

Hindley

Mr. Earnshaw's son, Hindley, develops a hatred for Heathcliff from the very beginning. He goes to London to attend college and comes back to Wuthering Heights with his wife, Frances, for his father's funeral. When he becomes the master of Wuthering Heights, he moves Heathcliff from the house to the servants' quarters and reduces him to a common farm laborer.

Hindley is jealous by nature and always imposes his superiority on people of lower social rank.

Catherine

Mr. Earnshaw's daughter, Catherine, is sympathetic to Heathcliff. She is his childhood companion, and they fall deeply in love. However, Catherine shocks and hurts Heathcliff when she chooses to marry Edgar Linton to become the "greatest woman in the neighborhood." Her actions lead Heathcliff to disappear for three years and are presumably his chief motive for seeking to destroy both the Linton and Earnshaw families.

Catherine is a free spirit who loves to break rules of conduct to explore the moors; she is headstrong and stubborn and loves Heathcliff passionately, but she ends that romance and turns to safe and dispassionate Edgar Linton.

younger Catherine

The younger Catherine is referred to as Cathy and is Catherine and Edgar Linton's daughter. She is ill-tempered and rude, and she has inherited her mother's good looks. Heathcliff forces her to marry his son, Linton, so that he can become the master of Thrushcross Grange as well. However, Linton dies soon after the marriage, and Cathy falls in love with Hareton.

Edgar

Edgar Linton lives in Thrushcross Grange. He is a gentleman who manages to woo Catherine Earnshaw. Catherine marries Edgar to become the mistress of Thrushcross Grange.

Isabella

Isabella is Edgar Linton's sister. She is weak and sickly. Heathcliff marries her to take revenge on Catherine and mistreats her. She flees to London to escape Heathcliff's torture and gives birth to their son, Linton, there.

Lockwood

Lockwood is the tenant who rents Thrushcross Grange from Heathcliff. He asks Nelly to tell him more about the inhabitants and the history of Wuthering Heights after he has a strange nightmare at the manor. He is a city-bred person who does not fit into the landscape of the moors, and he has rented Thrushcross Grange to recover from the pangs of a broken heart. He is the first narrator of the story.

Nelly

Nelly works as a housekeeper in Wuthering Heights. She is sympathetic to Heathcliff and Catherine and is a witness to all that unfolds at Wuthering Heights and in the lives of Heathcliff and Catherine. Nelly is one of the narrators in Wuthering Heights, and the story she tells Lockwood is colored with her feelings for the characters.

Hareton is the son of Hindley and Frances. He loses his mother a few years after his birth, and his father takes to alcohol. Heathcliff treats Hareton badly after the death of his parents, making him ill-mannered in some of the same ways Heathcliff has been. Hareton is forced to work as a servant at Wuthering Heights and he is denied an education. Eventually, he falls in love with the younger Catherine and plans to marry her.

Linton is the son of Isabella and Heathcliff. Born and raised in London, he is sickly and weak like her. Linton returns to live with his father, Heathcliff, after his mother's death. He never really gets any affection from his father, who uses him to gain control of Thrushcross Grange.
