Tone- how the narrator/speaker feels towards the events of the narrative they are describing
Mood- how the piece makes us—the reader—feel
Evidence- examples of the literary devices the author used and how they were used (diction, metaphor, imagery, contrast, etc.)

Paragraph #1:
The tone (coming from the narrator) is joyous, lively, and sentimental
The mood (to the reader) is warm, festive, and personal
EVIDENCE: Imagery of pleasant sensations like “bright lights” the “smell of cookies and cider,” “bright packages,” and the “warm room” as well as the selected vocabulary of “gleamed,” “hummed,” and “playfully,” demonstrate the narrator’s comfort, familiarity, and enjoyment of the holidays while indicating to the reader that this is a safe, happy, and celebratory time.

Paragraph #2:
The tone is depressed and disheartened
The mood is bleak and expired
EVIDENCE: words like “long, cold winter” “dry, brittle (tree),” and the juxtaposition (contrast) between putting “decorations back into their boxes” with the past “finery” of the house show the narrator’s disappointed feelings towards the end of the holiday season and the general “sigh” of the house.

What Is Better Distance Learning or face-to-face Learning Justify your answer in simple lines 5-6 Points (will mark Brainlest)

Answers

Answer:

Online learning is increasingly popular nowadays, and this trend is here to stay. With more flexibility, self-directed study options, and access to the same instructors and teachers as traditional learning, it’s no surprise that online learning is popular. But is online learning as good as face to face learning? It may be — and may even be more effective in some cases!

 

What Is Online Learning?

Online learning can be any type of learning that takes place over the internet. This could be a supplemental course, a full degree program, or self study. More times than not, online learning is asynchronous, as students do not have to learn at the same time and place as their instructors are teaching.

 

What Is Face-To-Face Learning?

Face-to-face learning is the more traditional way of instruction, where students and teachers attend an in-person session at the same time. The instructor leads the class, and usually, students are passively learning.

Measuring Up: Online Learning vs Face-to-Face

1. Asynchronous Learning vs Synchronous Learning

 

One of the most significant differences between face-to-face learning and online learning is that face-to-face learning is synchronous, or done at the same time. All instructors and students/classmates are present in face-to-face learning.

 With online learning, however, that is not necessary. Online instruction can be either synchronous or asynchronous.

 

 

2. Delivering Knowledge vs Facilitating Learning

 

In face-to-face classes, instructors are usually just delivering knowledge, and then assessing the understanding of that knowledge at a later date.

 This is compared to online learning, where instructors are seen more as facilitators of learning — helping their students understand the material through provided online materials.

 3. Teacher vs Child-Led Advancement

 While both online and face-to-face learning can have components of both student-led and teacher-led curriculum, online study lends itself better to student-led advancement and learning. In online study, students can decide for themselves what they want to dig deeper on, and spend more time learning.

 

 4. Discipline and Self Motivation

 Some may say that it is harder to succeed in online education, and that is because you must be highly self-motivated and disciplined. In online learning, no one is keeping you on track — you must be your own motivator, time keeper, and disciplinarian.

 

5. Measuring Performance

 In both face-to-face and online learning, instructors must have a way to measure performance. This is typically done by way of submitting assignments, administering tests, exams and quizzes, and creating points for participation. Participation and class ‘attendance’ is harder to measure in an online learning environment.

Key Differences Between Face-to-Face vs Online Instruction

There are so many important differences between face-to-face learning and online learning. Here are just a few:

 Key Differences Face-to-Face vs Online Instruction infographic table by UoPeople

Benefits of Face-to-Face Learning

Face-to-face learning has been the standard way of instruction for centuries. While online instruction is becoming increasingly popular, in-person study may still be the best option for some people. With face-to-face learning, instructors are better able to gauge understanding and interest of students, and it is easier to generate group excitement about a subject. It is also easier to hold students accountable.

6 Reasons Why Online Learning is More Effective

Is online learning as good as face-to-face learning? It may be even better.

 

1. Students Learn More

 Online courses give students full control over what they are learning, so students are able to work at their own speed. They are able to work quickly through areas they understand, and spend more time on areas they do not.

 

2. Higher Retention Rates

 

Many studies have shown that retention rates for online students are much higher than for traditional, in-person students. Online learning increases access and makes it more likely that a student can finish a course or program when physical limitations are removed.

3. Lower Time Investment

 ln online learning, students save a ton of time by not having to commute to class. There is also a need by face-to-face instructors to fill the allotted course time, when students could be using that time to work on something more valuable for their learning. In online learning, students are spending less time overall, and making that time towards their education count.

Answer:

Explanation:

In my opinion I am very neutral when it comes to this question. Having lost nearly a year of in person learning it is very hard to transfer back to what was known as normal especially when it comes to school. Having to socially interact with other students and teachers in person just seems so much harder than it used to be, Without the aid of the internet or the comfort of working in my own room school seems like much more of a burden. But if I had the chance to go back and relive 2020 as a normal year I would 100% want to be in in person learning. I feel like I have lost so much more valuable knowledge than I should have.

Item 8
Too Fast

Batnik’s father was a great inventor. He had created many things that made people’s lives easier. One of his inventions was a car that could operate on both water and land; this car was Batnik’s favorite. On water, it could float and travel at speeds up to 80 miles per hour. But on land, it could travel at speeds over 200 miles per hour. Batnik’s father had created this special car to help people from their island get to the mainland and other islands faster. When Batnik's father was a boy, the only method of travel from one island to another was by ferry, and the trip often took hours. People who were sick and needed medical help from the mainland would have to endure the long crossing or not go at all because of delays. Batnik’s father loved his homeland and wanted to ease the burden on the people, so he created the water car.

When he showed the car to Batnik, Batnik’s father warned Batnik that the car should not be driven at the maximum speed on land or water because the engine could burst into flame. One day when his father was away, Batnik decided that he wanted to show the car to his friends. He drove it on the water, at first going only half the possible speed. Then, as his excitement grew, he increased his speed on the water and was nearing maximum speed. When he reached the land, he continued to accelerate. His exhilaration grew. Like the mythological Greek boy Icarus, who flew too close to the sun, Batnik forgot his father’s warning and pushed the gas pedal to the floor. When the car exceeded 200 miles per hour, it burst into flames.
How is the character of Batnik's father in “Too Fast” similar to Pan in "Pan: God of the Wild"?

Select the correct answer. What is the theme of the passage? Mason was walking through the mall, wondering what he should buy for his mother. Today was her birthday. Mason had struggled all week trying to find the perfect gift, but nothing seemed right. He first thought about getting her a dress, only to realize that he had no idea what size she wore. Then he thought he’d get her a book, since his mother loved to read. But the book shop was large, and Mason couldn’t be sure which books she had already read. He thought to himself, “I don't know what Mom likes. I want to get her something that will make her happy.” That’s when he saw Little Potter’s Florist and Gardening Shop. His mother loved gardening! Mason ran over to the store. The owner of the store, Angela, was surprised to see Mason. Mason told her he was there to get a gift for his mother. Angela wrapped up five packets of seeds, five planters, and a new weeding fork. She also put together a fresh bouquet of roses for Mason to give to his mother. When the time came to present his gift to his mother, Mason grew anxious. He didn’t know whether or not she would like the gardening supplies. He wondered if he should have bought a dress like he had initially planned. Of course, it was too late to make a change, so he went to the kitchen where his mom was busy preparing a chicken dinner. Mason sneaked behind her and placed the gift on the table. He held out the bouquet and shouted, "Happy Birthday, Mama!" His mother was startled, but she accepted the bouquet with a smile. As she began to open the package, Mason could feel nervousness creeping up on him again. His mom remained silent as she removed the contents of the package. She then turned and hugged Mason with tears in her eyes. Mason knew his mother loved the gifts. She always cried when she was really happy.

What is The Outsiders?

Based on the first chapter of The Outsiders, it is predicted that some of the themes that may be developed in the book are the struggle between social classes, the importance of family and loyalty, and the sense of isolation and alienation felt by some of the characters. This prediction is based on the contrast between the rich Socs and the poor Greasers, as well as Ponyboy's sense of being an outsider and his connection with his gang members.

Chapter 2 reinforces these themes and introduces new ones, such as the idea of innocence and loss of it, and the importance of friendship. The conflict between the Socs and the Greasers becomes more apparent in this chapter, with a violent encounter between the two groups. Ponyboy's relationship with his brother Darry is also developed, highlighting the theme of family and loyalty.

By the end of Chapter 5, readers are waiting to find out how the conflict between the Socs and the Greasers will be resolved and what will happen to Johnny and Ponyboy after they run away. The events that keep readers from learning how the conflict will be resolved include the ongoing tension and violence between the two groups, as well as the uncertainty and danger faced by Johnny and Ponyboy while on the run.
