Read the excerpt from "The Crab That Played with the Sea."

Then the little girl-daughter put up her little soft brown arms with the beautiful white shell bracelets and said, ‘O Eldest Magician! when my father here talked to you at the Very Beginning, and I leaned upon his shoulder while the beasts were being taught their plays, one beast went away naughtily into the Sea before you had taught him his play. And the Eldest Magician said, ‘How wise are little children who see and are silent! What was the beast like?’ And the little girl-daughter said, ‘He was round and he was flat; and his eyes grew upon stalks; and he walked sideways like this; and he was covered with strong armour upon his back.’ And the Eldest Magician said, ‘How wise are little children who speak truth! Now I know where Pau Amma went. Give me the paddle!’ So he took the paddle; but there was no need to paddle, for the water flowed steadily past all the islands till they came to the place called Pusat Tasek—the Heart of the Sea—where the great hollow is that leads down to the heart of the world, and in that hollow grows the Wonderful Tree, Pauh Janggi, that bears the magic twin nuts.

What evidence supports the conclusion that the author’s purpose is to teach a moral to children?

"He was round and he was flat."

"Now I know where Pau Amma went."

"He was covered with strong armour upon his

back.

"How wise are little children who speak truth!"

Answer:

"How wise are little children who speak truth!"

Explanation:

The evidence that supports the conclusion that the author's purpose is to teach a moral to children was when the Eldest Magician replied the little girl-daughter and told her that little children that speak truth are wise.

His reply came as a result of her observations which led to the Eldest Magician finding out where Pau Amma went to.

What is lipophilicity<br>​
Jet001 [13]

Tbh, I don't know what it means, but Google does

GOOGLE: Lipophilicity, refers to the ability of a chemical compound to dissolve in fats, oils, lipids, and non-polar solvents such as hexane or toluene. Such non-polar solvents are themselves lipophilic, and the axiom that "like dissolves like" generally holds true

MORE GOOGLE: Lipophilicity is defined as the affinity of a drug for a lipid environment. ... Lipophilicity can be measured by the distribution of a drug between the organic phase, which is generally n-octanol pre-saturated with water, and the aqueous phase, which is generally water pre-saturated with n-octanol

I hope this helps! Good luck!

The Stone and Rickie Fowler and the Walk of a Lifetime both focus on wishes. Using evidence from the text, compare and contrast
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Maibon and Anthony Trudel react in different ways when their wishes are granted.

Maibon was pleased at first since he will never be old. As the days passed by, he realized that every day was the same and that he was not aging nor living his life. This leads him to realize that his wish will not make his dream come true and will not make him happy. We can see this when he says  “I want no more of it. Whatever may happen, let it happen. That’s better than nothing happening at all. I’ve had my share of being young; I’ll take my share of being old. And when I come to the end of my days, at least I can say I’ve lived each one of them.”

On the other side, there is Anthony Trudel, a teenage boy with cancer who wanted to meet his idol Rickie Fouler. Anthony was happy because he could watch his favorite golf player in action and talk with him. He did not want a photo with him.  He wanted to see Fouler play and interact with others since this was what he admired of him. We can see this when Anthony says " What I won’t forget is unflappability. His cool. His understanding of what he got to do. His studious and laid-back demeanor as he walked a few feet from his hero, taking mental notes on his swing, on how he read the greens, on his putting stroke". Also, when he says “That’s one of the reasons I’ve always liked him,” said Trudel, “it’s the way he treats people.”  We can see that Anthony wants to learn and aspires to be like him. He is living every day of his life has the probability of meeting Rickie Fowler again due to the short distance between residences.

In conclusion, Maibon asked for something that did not allow him to live his life but made him realized that time is essential in every life and makes things precious. Something that Trudel knew and, that is why he used his days to make worthy memories.

Explanation:

In this essay, we compare and contrast two texts that share the topic of whishes. It is important to cite evidence from the text to support what we are stating and use the correct language.

Finally, we write our last paragraph, which is the conclusion. In this paragraph, we state what we could learn by comparing these two scenarios.
