How could Scrooge, his experiences and his reactions to them be seen as a comment on humanity in general?
[Worth 6 marks)
Christmas carol

Answers

Answer:

Dickens' work Christmas Carol is the critique of the cruelty and stingy people filled with greed who think too highly of themselves. The character of Scrooge (especially compared to Bob Cratchit and Tiny Tim) should remind us that money does not make a man, but can sometimes even turn people unkind and greedy, and that the true values and real happiness lies in kindness and benevolence.

Explanation:

Christmas Carol and Scrooge are a commentary on the greed and the unkindness of people, and the way they can forget others and where they came from if they have more than others. It is the critique of the privileged who do not use their benefits and wealth to help others, but rather think too highly of themselves.

The story shows how those who do not have a connection to the virtues will become isolated from society, too negative and hated by everyone. We see people cherish Scrooge’s death when the Ghost of Christmas future shows him his destiny. This should remind us that history does not look fondly upon the unkind and cruel people and that they shall leave no decent mark on humanity.

Christmas Carol also tries to remind us that money does not mean goodness and compassion, but that sometimes the best people and the most generous are those who do not have much. Dickens tries to remind us of what humanity really means and the true values of the world that matter in the long run.

3. “The sniper looked at his enemy falling, and he shuddered. The lust of battle died in him. He became bitten by remorse. The sweat stood out in beads on his forehead. Weakened by his wound and the long summer day of fasting and watching on the roof, he revolted from the sight of the shattered mass of his dead enemy. His teeth chattered, he began it gibber himself, cursing the war, cursing himself, cursing everybody.” The sniper succeeded in killing his enemy. Does this event create internal or external conflict for the sniper? Explain and cite text evidence. Applying ACE’D (Answer, Cite, Elaborate and Delineate).Write 4-6 complete sentences citing relevant evidence “directly” (quoting) and indirectly. This is from "The Sniper"

Answers

Answer:

The Sniper killing his enemy creates an internal conflict.  We see this in the quote, "...cursing the war, cursing himself, cursing everybody." This shows how the sniper was upset or even mortified at the killing of his enemy. Thus The Sniper feels remorse and probably wishes this said war had never started.

Explanation:

Volleyball is a team sport. The teams are separated by a large net. It has six players on each side of the net. Each team is allowed twelve substitution players. The game starts when the captain from each team decides which side of the court they will play on, by the toss of a coin, which also determines who will serve (hit) the ball first. The point of the game is to keep the ball in the air. The ball can be played with any part of the body, with a maximum of three strokes a team. If at any point the ball hits the floor, the side that the ball landed on it is a point for the other team.

Which narrative point of view is used in this excerpt from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll?

And so it was indeed: she was now only ten inches high, and her face brightened up at the thought that she was now the right size for going through the little door into that lovely garden. First, however, she waited for a few minutes to see if she was going to shrink any further: she felt a little nervous about this; 'for it might end, you know,' said Alice to herself, 'in my going out altogether, like a candle. I wonder what I should be like then?' And she tried to fancy what the flame of a candle is like after the candle is blown out, for she could not remember ever having seen such a thing.

After a while, finding that nothing more happened, she decided on going into the garden at once; but, alas for poor Alice! when she got to the door, she found she had forgotten the little golden key, and when she went back to the table for it, she found she could not possibly reach it: she could see it quite plainly through the glass, and she tried her best to climb up one of the legs of the table, but it was too slippery; and when she had tired herself out with trying, the poor little thing sat down and cried.

observe three(3) different speaking situations in your environment. using the table below, list them down and distinguish the type of speech according to purpose and delivery used in each situation. Also, provide an evaluation by identifying the positive point you noticed. for the relevant suggestion, give a piece of advice on how the speech can further be improved considering the type of speech where it belongs.​

need answer ASAP!

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The three different speaking situations in your environment are the following.

-Speaking situation 1.

Purpose: To give instructions. The contractor gives instructions to the workers in a house construction project.

Delivery: Indirect. He is telling his assistant to go tell the workers about some changes in the facade of the house.

Positive Point: The communication is delivered on time before labor begins.

Relevant suggestion: the instructions must be conveyed directed by the contractor, not by the assistant. Otherwise, there could be misinterpretations or misunderstandings of the original instruction.

-Speaking situation 2.

Purpose: Reprimand

Delivery: Direct, right at the moment. Same case of the contractor and the workers.

Positive Point: Contractor reprimanding one of the workers for a big mistake he made.

Relevant suggestion: Doing it in private, not in public. Reprimands must be private so the worker is not ashamed to be reprimanded in public.

-Speaking situation 3.

Purpose: Congratulate.

Delivery: Direct by the contractor.

Positive Point: He also expresses kudos when a worker does a good job

Relevant suggestion: He must be doing this more often and more sincerely, so the worker really feels the intetion.

The question above wants to assess whether you can identify different types of speech and understand the elements that make up each one. In that case, I can't answer the question for you, but I'll show you how to answer it.

Speeches are made to establish communication between people. These speeches are related to different types of situations, such as making requests, teaching something, reprimanding someone, praising someone, asking for help, thanking, among others.

Based on that, you can answer your question as follows:

Choose a situation where you need to establish some kind of communication between people.Show what is happening in this communication.Show the purpose of the communication.Show whether the delivery is direct (when communication is made directly between the people involved) or indirect (when communication is made using intermediaries.)Show the positive point of the speech in each type of communication and offer suggestions for how that speech can improve.

He is currently the Indian team captain and is rated as one of the best batman in the world. He is also a Padmasri and Arjuna award winner. He was awarded ICC player of the year on 2012.

Virat kohli was  born on 5 November, 1988 in Delhi. From childhood on wards, he was passionate about cricket and started playing cricket when he was three years old. Later he was trained at Delhi Cricket Academy. His hard work , dedication and talent helped him to secure a place in the under 15 and later under 17 team. Virat performed consistently and later secured a place in the India under 19 team in 2006 against England. In 2008 he captained the  ICC Under 19 Word cup and the same year he was selected to the Indian cricket team. His consistent performance in the team won the hearts of millions of cricketing fans across the world. He was made the vice-captain of the team in 2010 and later the captain in 2014.

Virat Kohli has already scored 28 centuries in one day matches and 17 centuries in test. He is the fastest Indian batsman to get 1000  international runs and  has  already won the man of the match award 22 times.  He is considered as one person who has the potential to smash the legendary Sachin Tendulkars record of most runs in ODI. Undoubtedly, he is one of the finest Indian player in the history of cricket.

write an Expository Essay on Why does a positive attitude helps a person be successful? font 14 1 page this is alot of points please do it right f

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:A positive attitude helps you cope more easily with the daily affairs of life. It brings optimism into your life, and makes it easier to avoid worries and negative thinking. If you adopt it as a way of life, it would bring constructive changes into your life, and makes them happier, brighter and more successful.

With a positive attitude you see the bright side of life, become optimistic, and expect the best to happen. It is certainly a state of mind that is well worth developing.

Positive attitude manifests in the following ways:

Positive thinking.

Constructive thinking.

Creative thinking.

Optimism.

Motivation and energy to do things and accomplish goals.

An attitude of happiness.

A positive frame of mind can help you in many ways, such as:

Expecting success and not failure.

Making you feel inspired.

It gives you the strength not to give up, if you encounter obstacles on your way.

It makes you look at failure and problems as blessings in disguise.

Believing in yourself and in your abilities.>

Enables you to show self-esteem and confidence.

You look for solutions, instead of dwelling on problems.

You see and recognize opportunities.

A positive attitude leads to happiness and success and can change your whole life. If you look at the bright side of life, your whole life becomes filled with light. This light affects not only you and the way you look at the world, but it also affects your environment and the people around you.

If this attitude is strong enough, it becomes contagious. It's as if you radiate light around you.
