At the moment I am working on editing a short weather description over on the topic of a storm, any updates to it will be posted to this thread but please give recommendations because it just does not feel fluid yet.
Here it is:
Winds flexed their muscles in the East, whipping the clouds into shape, marching them across a molten silver sky. The black jackboots of the rain tramped across the horizon, stamping cold onto the world beneath, as though some long dead tyrant had returned, armed with winter’s fury. No one was safe. Through this nurturing black came bold streaks of light, pulsing starlight, lightning in great networking forks.
A black cape enveloped the sky: cosmic swirls of thunder clouds armoured in battleship grey; those coming behind streaked with the black of coal smoke; those on the horizon nothing but a smudge on a canvas.
I think maybe the "nurturing black" bit should go, as it messes with the tone of your writing and makes the storm seem less intimidating :(

Once upon a time there dwelt on the outskirts of a large forest a poor woodcutter with his wife and two children; the boy was called Hansel and the girl Gretel. He had always little enough to live on, and once, when there was a great famine in the land, he couldn’t even provide them with daily bread. One night, as he was tossing about in bed, full of cares and worry, he sighed and said to his wife: "What’s to become of us? How are we to support our poor children, now that we have nothing more for ourselves?” "I’ll tell you what, husband,” answered the woman; "early to-morrow morning we’ll take the children out into the thickest part of the wood; there we shall light a fire for them and give them each a piece of bread; then we’ll go on to our work and leave them alone. They won’t be able to find their way home, and we shall thus be rid of them.” "No, wife,” said her husband, "that I won’t do; how could I find it in my heart to leave my children alone in the wood? The wild beasts would soon come and tear them to pieces.” "Oh! you fool,” said she, "then we must all four die of hunger, and you may just as well go and plane the boards for our coffins”; and she left him no peace till he consented. "But I can’t help feeling sorry for the poor children,” added the husband.

How is the phrase “law and order” a code against Black power and supremacy? What is the relationship to the sudden narrative around Blue lives matter?
Answer:
"Law and order" is an archaic expression, Over the course of American history, it's the cry that the people in charge have raised to confront the threat of violence bubbling up from below — whether as popular insurrections, public disorders, radical agitators or gangs. It was a phrase invoked to condemn the striking auto workers in Flint in 1936 and the demonstrations organized by Martin Luther King in Birmingham in 1963.
Those who fly the flag have said it stands for solidarity and professional pride within a dangerous, difficult profession and a solemn tribute to fallen police officers. But it has also been flown by white supremacists, appearing next to Confederate flags at the 2017 ‘Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville. County officials in Oregon recently paid $100,000 to a black employee of a law enforcement agency there, after she said she was harassed by co-workers for complaining about her colleagues displaying the flag at work.
Now, as police again become the focal point of a fight for racial equality in the U.S., the flag has returned to both mirrors and amplify divisions.

What is a passage?A passage is a long narrow space with walls or fences on both sides, which connects one place or room with another.
Technically, a passage is simply a portion or section of a written work, either fiction or non-fiction. Some hold that a passage can be as short as a sentence, but most consist of at least one paragraph and usually several. One iteration of SAT Passage-based Reading included both Short Passages of 1-2 paragraphs and Long Passages of 4-9 paragraphs. These days, most test passages, at least at the high school level, come in at what is amorphously described as “medium length.” Some passages incorporate excerpts from multiple sources and may lack a central idea of their own.
However, in most instances and on most test sections, a passage presents a carefully curated excerpt that can be perceived as containing some sort of greater meaning.

Answer:
Great story, slight adjustments with the commas might be good (I can't fully tell because the photo is blurry)
Explanation:
I really like it. I think that the first sentence/paragraph and the second sentence/paragraph are slightly confusing, but the overall story you're telling is interesting and is really supported by a sudden twist in the information you know. It's great storytelling because there are things you don't entirely explain, so I get to interpret the situation myself.

Words that modify or limit verbs adjectives and other adverbs are
Answer:
These are referred to as adverbs. Adverbs are words that modify a sentence, and often end with a prefix of ly-. For example, "I walk to the park slowly". That sentence has an adverb, slowly, which modifies the sentence so we know that the writer is slowly walking to the park. Now, without that adverb, we would not know that the writer is slowly walking to the park, we would just know they are walking to the park. That is how adverbs modify sentences.
