Answer:

Both Frederick Douglass's Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave, and Helen Keller's The Story of My Life were written to help their respective authors learn to read and write while overcoming significant personal challenges. Both writers want to learn and grow, which is the main reason they want to study.

Both narrators overcame hardships. Helen and Frederick learned despite challenges. Both themes also vary. Helen Keller was blind and deaf like Frederick Douglass. Frederick is discouraged from learning, while Helen isn't. Frederick always wanted to read and write, but Helen didn't at first. Helen had one tutor. Frederick was well-educated. When Frederick's mistress stopped teaching him, he learned from anybody who would. Helen traced words on her hands. Frederick read aloud using letter sounds. Both verses show that anybody may read, write, or learn a language, even in sad times. Both narrators overcome hurdles and achieve their aims, despite their differences.

PLEASE HELP 100 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Change is so hard for some people because they might be afraid of what is ahead of them; life changes all the time, it better to be prepared then to get crushed. The thing that I can do to be more open to change is find the little things in life and pay very close attention if I have a opportunity to take it because that will lead me to being more open to trying new things. The things that I would have to sacrifice to be what I can be is to give up my old habits the old habits that are bad habits. The thing that I would most like to change about myself is the way I process things, the way I take things sometimes I take things to heart when it so small there's no  necessity to feel like my  feelings have been hurt. The way that I embrace change and still maintain my core values is loving myself before loving anyone else. The things that I hope that never changes about me is my personality and me being there for people though I don't think that will ever change. The things that I will have to sacrifice to grow as I approach graduation is my actions, I will have to be more mature than I currently am. ( I actually am a senior soo yea lol) The hardest thing that will be hardest to let go is I actually can't come up with anything right now, I'm sorry I'm about done with school, its frustrating XD. The easiest thing that I will be able to let go of is the school.

popularity can be an accident by talking to people who are pretty popular or knowing one person through several other people.

The reason why popularity isn't an indication of character is because not everyone has to be popular no one has to be popular.

Riches takes wings means that a person should find true wealth in the beauties of the natural world.

because character matter most

I agree because character and personality should always come first.

the aspect of character that I want to be known for is open minded  I suppose don't know sorry

Compare and Contrast watching a movie at home vs. at a movie theater.
Step2247 [10]

At the theatre, the TV screen is huge. At home, it's much smaller. At the cinema, you sit in seats with cupholders. At home, you watch on the couch.

At the cinema, they dim the lights for you. At home, you have to take of the lights.

At the cinema, you have to pay for treats (popcorn, drinks, etc.)

At home,  you just take it out of the cupboard, but if you don't have, you buy from the store, which is much cheaper.
