8. How does the butterfly that Eckels steps on contribute to the theme of
the short story?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The theme in the sound of thunder is that actions have consequences. When Eckels steps on the butterfly he causes a chain reaction of events that causes humanity to get less smart and for the president to change to someone else. The evidence we have of this is when Eckels gets back from the past and sees the sign for the tyrannosaurus rex hunting is spelled incorrectly.

Which word or words best helps you understand the meaning of the word obedient?


The obedient child always followed her mother's requests. That night, she brushed her teeth, folded her clothes, and went to bed before her mother had to come in and remind her.


Question 5 options:


That night



Followed her mother's requests



Brushed her teeth



Folded her clothes

Answers

“Followed her mother’s requests.”

This is the child being obedient to her mother. While the options “folded her clothes” and “brushed her teeth” are appealing, she could have done those things in her own as well. Following her mothers requests is blatant obedience since she is obeying what her mother requested of her. I hope this helped you! :D

The Unfolding Bud

one is amazed
by a water-lily bud,
Unfolding
with each passing day
taking on a rich color
and new dimensions.

one is not amazed,
at a first glance ,
by a poem ,
which is as tight-closed
as a tiny body .

yet , one is surprised
to see the poem
gradually unfolding .
revealing its rich inner self ,
as one reads it
again
and over again . ​

Answers

Answer:

1. You can compare a human being to a tight-closed tiny bud as like how humans don't open up easily and some people aren't impressed with them at first glance. But as time goes on, and they get to know them, they slowly open up.

2. Whenever you meet new friends, some of them don't easily see the beauty or goodness inside you because sometimes you don't open up easily or they can't/don't know how to tell that easily. As time passes, you slowly open up to them and they get to learn who you really it. (This question really depends on who you are. If you are a quick to trust person, you're probably the first part of the question and you should say, "My friends can easily see who I am as a person, because it is a part of my personality. I put my heart out and they see my 'beauty.'" If that fits you! If not, choose the first part I put and edit the you to I.)

3. In my opinion, I think it's better to reserve your goodness and let people discover it as time goes on and they get to know you instead of revealing it right away so they can't take advantage of you.

(please the answer must be in a type of essay or at least 5 lines)

Answers

Answer:

It is important for teenagers to be informed about local, regional, and global events happening in their country. They should be aware of the problems occurring in different countries around the globe. It helps them to understand how these events are interconnected with each other.

For example, in the US, teenagers might read about the presidential election or the latest in entertainment. They may also want to know what is happening in their country’s neighboring countries like Mexico.

It is important for teenagers to be informed about these significant events in order to have a better understanding of how their country is being shaped.

When teenagers are exposed to the events in their country, they are able to take more control over their lives. They can make decisions that will positively affect themselves and not just blindly follow the decisions made by the government.

We should be providing the knowledge and skills to our teenagers, so that they can become informed citizens, aware of what is going on in the world.

It is important for teenagers to be knowledgeable about sports, political, cultural and social events happening in their country.

Teenagers today are growing up in a world full of misinformation. They are being targeted by clickbait journalism and sensationalized news headlines. We should instead provide them with information that is accurate and unbiased so that they can become informed citizens of tomorrow.

describe the taste and smell of blood in a paragraph for my narrative descriptive writing

Answers

Answer:

Blood tastes like a little bit like metal but very weak, because of the iron in it.

Blood also smells like metal, but it can smell like nothing once dried.

Try adding maybe physical descriptions such as "the splatter of it coated my hands." or such

Explanation:

The answer to this question will depend on a few factors:

Which blood is being described.
Who is doing the describing.
How fancy you want to get.
So, if you’re talking regular ole human blood, that’s one thing, but alien blood could smell like anything. It might smell like butter or clams or books. You can make that up. Also, there are a few taboos with describing human blood that you wouldn’t have to worry about when describing animal blood, especially if the animal blood is somehow food, as in a rare steak or blood pudding.

If you really are just trying to describe human blood, however, I’m going to give you some words to use, but you’ll have to wait until the end of the post. I promise they’re there. Keep reading.

Who is doing the describing is also important. Vampires, for example, might describe the smell of blood much differently than a regular human. They might say it’s sweet-smelling or intoxicating or rotten (ew, gross, werewolves… or something). Since, at least for many vampires in fiction, blood is all they eat and their sense of smell is attuned to differences in blood, they’d have a much larger (and probably creepier) vocabulary for describing the smell.

However, vampires and other blood-guzzling monsters aren’t the only ones who might describe the scent of blood differently than normal people (nothing against any vampires who might be reading). There are smell and taste disorders that might cause a person to describe blood differently than others.

Dysosmia, for example, is “a neurological disorder that causes an altered sense of smell. The condition can manifest itself in a variety of ways: it may distort smells, which is a sub-condition called parosmia; initiate no olfactory response at all, called anosmia; or produce smells that aren’t there, called phantosmia.” (x)

Without a doubt, someone with Dysosmia is going to smell differently than you smell. For ideas, I’d find someone with Dysosmia and talk to them about their disorder. There are also a few links to learn more about this condition in the resources section below.

People with a fear of blood, known as Hemophobia, might describe blood differently. How their fear affects their descriptions is up to you, but attaching fear to a smell is bound to change a person’s descriptions of said smell.

Then there are cannibals: people who eat other people. To them, blood is a part of food, and food gets different boundaries on descriptors than human blood. Describing human blood as delicious or mouth-watering might get weird for the non-cannibals in the room. And, not to compare them to cannibals in any other respect, but this is also a problem for blood fetishists, people who derive sexual pleasure from blood. The sexualized descriptors they might use don’t fit neatly into society’s acceptable vocabulary for describing blood either.

Now that we’ve covered why a character might describe blood differently than others, let’s talk about how fancy you want to get.

It’s pretty common to hear blood described as metallic. That’ll be on the vocabulary list at the end of the post, for sure. But there are other ways to describe metallic smells, aren’t there, and ones that might help ground the description in setting or character. Let’s explore a few examples:

His blood smelled like my grandfather’s old change jar that he kept in the window of his study. The morning sun hit that jar and by lunchtime the whole room would smell like metal. It made me sick. I couldn’t even go in to borrow a pen unless the sun had been down for hours.
His blood smelled like a smithy, like raw iron and earth.
His blood smelled like the kitchen sink after Mother had cleaned the pots and pans with her metal scouring pad.
Metaphors might help you ground your descriptions more firmly into your story, but first you’ll need some basic springboard words. Here, finally, is a list of smells associated with fresh blood:

metallic
coppery
like iron
rusty
minerally
tinny
ruddy
like wet metal
like pennies
salty
musty
heady
The older wet blood is, the sweet it smells. Some people would even describe it as fruity, nutty, or ripe. Dry blood might smell mustier or more rancid than wet blood. Smell is also very closely tied to taste. Trying to get a handle on how you think blood tastes might help you describe its smell.

Keep in mind that human experience varies widely. Some people can’t smell blood at all, and others can smell a bottle cap’s worth of blood in a large room. Sensitivity to the smell of blood depends on the person.

Even though most students will probably not become mathematicians, many of them will choose a profession where math plays an important role. Architects, pharmacists, and carpenters all use math every day. A strong math foundation in high school is important for students to succeed in these and in other professions.

In 1–2 sentences, explain which word or phrase should be added to the paragraph to increase its cohesion and why that word or phrase would increase cohesion.
