Answer:

(Hope this helps can I pls have brainlist (crown)☺️)

Explanation:

"The Gifts of Feodor Himkoff", is a very heart touching story by Arthur Quiller. It is narrated in the first person. The narrator is a frequent visitor to a coastal area called Zoze Point. It is a difficult place to reach. He recalls of one of his visits in cold December.  

He had been walking continuously for four days and was totally worn out. He wanted a cup of warm milk to keep him alive when he chanced upon a small cottage with a fire burning. As he knocked at the door shyly he was greeted by a poorly clad old lady. The woman invited him inside and offered him a cup of tea. There was an old deaf man slouched in a chair. He was Isaac, the woman’s ailing husband.

The woman served him a very high quality tea complemented with rich dainties. When the narrator asked from where the gourmet came she narrated the story of the gifts of Feodor Himkoff.

Long ago Isaac had lost his only son. He was a soldier brutally killed by the Russians. Ever since, Isaac had vowed that he would slew every Russian he saw to avenge his son’s death. Some years later a Russian soldier with the middle finger of his hand missing, had knocked at his door in search of shelter. He and fifteen soldiers were badly injured and had been shipwrecked. Isaac cruelly refused shelter and all the Russians perished. Next day onwards Isaac went to the shore and buried the bodies that floated ashore.

A few years letter Feodor Himkoff, the brother of the soldier with the missing finger came to meet Isaac. He had come to thank him for giving his brother and his crew a peaceful burial. Ever since he had been sending the rich gifts to Isaac. As a deed of redemption Isaac and his wife did not touch the gifts but served them to all the weary travellers who sought shelter in their warm cottage. They no longer refused any one shelter.

Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.

But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd,
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature's changing course untrimm'd:
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st,
Nor shall death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st,
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

Read the introduction and first paragraph of an essay about energy sources.
Abc
(1) The nation's energy use is largely dependent on fossil fuels. (2) These fuels are nonrenewable
resources, and they cause pollution. (3) We cannot continue our reliance on a fuel that will eventually run
out. (4) Thus, we must find other ways to sustain our energy demands. (5) Pursuing alternative fuel sources
is the key to solving our energy crisis.
(6) Currently, about 1 percent of energy in the United States is produced by the sun, and solar energy has
the potential to become a more widely used energy source. (7) Through different technologies, such as
solar cells, scientists have learned to use the sun's radiation to create electricity. (8) Solar energy is both
inexhaustible and clean. (9) The major limit to this alternative source is that equipment is expensive. (10)
Developing a cost-effective way to harness the power of the sun will be a significant development in
solving our energy crisis.
Which is an alternative piece of evidence that supports the idea that solar energy could play a part in solving the
energy crisis?
Solar energy is not a suitable solution for all climates due to shorter hours of daylight
