Answer:

Part A: Parents should try to give their children what they want.

Part B: You know we can't afford a dog, Doris. You try to act more grown-up about this.

Explanation:

I've read this story before and till this day, I still remember it. I enjoy watching it. The reason why I chose this is because it fits best. Doris really wanted to keep the stray pup but her parent's denied her request. But at the end, her dad brought the stray pup back. This is one of the main reasons why I chose the theme "Parent's should try to give their children what they want."

I hope this helps!

A chessboard is made of 64 small squares. Suppose a single square on a chessboard has an area of 6 square centimeters. How long
Marrrta [24]
Here is the solution for this question.
Given that the chessboard has 64 small squares.
And the area of per square is 6sq.cm. We are going to find the length of one side of the entire board.
So the first thing we are going to do is to find the square root of 6 and the result is 2.45. Therefore, one side of the single square is 2.45 centimeters. In a chessboard, per side consists of 8 squares. So we multiply 2.45 centimeters by 8 and the final result would be 19.6 centimeters. Hope this answer helps.

Match the bolded words in these lines from James Joyce’s story “Araby” to their synonyms. Use clues from the context in which th
ss7ja [257]
1. impinge = strike
The word impinge can have various meanings, but in the case above, it means to strike. When 'the rain impinge[d] upon the earth,' it means that it started raining, the rain started striking the earth. To impinge means that something starts, and usually something negative.

2. garrulous = loquacious
The word garrulous refers to someone who talks excessively, likes to talk a bit too much, and usually about something trivial. Loquacious is a fancy word to denote the same thing, although it has a more positive connotation - it refers to someone who can speak nicely.

3. pious = religious
The word pious comes from the Latin word pius, which means dutiful. So when English took this word from Latin, it added a different suffix (-ous), and gave it the meaning of being 'dutiful to God.' So nowadays, pious refers to someone who is devoutly religious.

4. ruinous = dilapidated
The word ruinous refers to something which is in ruins, which is falling apart. The word which means the same thing is dilapidated - both of these words are usually used to describe buildings that are very old, and derelict, and are practically in ruins.
