For Laurie, baking cookies was a common thing, designed to bring a little happiness on random days. However, after meeting Maurice, cooking cookies and became a way to show care and affection among people.

Although you haven't shown it, we can see that this question is about the book "An Invisible Thread." When we read this book, we have access to the following information:

  • The book tells the story of how Laurie and Maurice met and ended up impacting each other's lives.
  • Maurice was a boy who lived in a violent and dangerous place.
  • His mother was involved in drug trafficking and he and his brother lived without any form of adult supervision.
  • Furthermore, they had no money, were very hungry, and had no prospects for life.
  • Laurie was a woman who had an ordinary life, with nothing very significant.
  • However, Laurie had a stable life and had better economic and social opportunities than Mauricie.
  • One day they met and Laurie decided to help Maurice overcome the difficulties in his life.
  • Maurice taught Laurie several lessons about life, caring for people, and happiness.

Maurice gave a new meaning to many things in Laurie's life, such as baking cookies, which for her was just something silly, that although it brought happiness, it was nothing special, but Maurice showed how baking cookies is affectionate and bonding between people.

mariarad [96]

Answer: I read the text and it seems perfect and I think you don't need to add anything else.

Explanation:

Analyzing the task and the way you responded it seems to me that you did it well. You were precise in each of the years. I think you should not add more since it would be a bit more extensive and the important thing about this task is to point out the most important events of each year. In my opinion, I wouldn't change anything, I think it's very good.

I could also see that you used the connectors that the statement showed. You have followed the instructions very well. Congratulations!

What was Santiago most likely thinking when he pulled his skiff ashore?
Elenna [48]

In the text, it is said that he got to the shore and then did everything possible to carry the mast with him, besides, everyone was sleeping so nobody could help him.

Therefore, the option that better fits with the story is option D, as he attempted to carry the gear by himself several times, despite failing to do so and falling asleep in the process.
