Read the text, then answer the question that follows: Wild animals as viewed from a mountain camp—Camille Grant, October 2011 Th

rough my binoculars, I viewed a group of wild animals in action. A pride of lions was sleeping when a small, yellow bus pulled up beside them. Tourists on a safari were packed into the bus like sardines in a can. Armed with cameras, they invaded the lions' territory, hoping to capture the perfect photograph. The crowd leaned out the windows, hooting and hollering, until the lions awoke. When the lions moved away, the bus rolled after them, relentlessly stalking the pride. One of the lions turned and roared to protect the young. This was greeted with cheers and a celebratory honk of the bus horn. The curious visitors observed the lions' routine for an hour before moving on. Leaving a cloud of dust, the bus headed away, taking the wild animals off to disturb someone else's home. Review the following line from the text: The nosy visitors observed the lions' routine for nearly an hour before moving on. To create a more positive connotation, the author could have replaced the word nosy with which of the following synonyms?
Curious
Intrusive
Meddlesome
Prying

Task - Write a memoir from the perspective of someone (on the Titanic the night the ship
NARA [144]
First off, Edgar wrote in a letter to someone that he wanted to be on the Oceanic and not the Titanic. He said it felt incredible, but he wished the Titanic was on the bottom of the ocean which is pretty ironic ngl.

Josey, I write to you now as the glorious Titanic has struck an iceberg. Everyone is screaming and I can’t seem to find anyone who I’ve been in the days prior. Workers just boarded all women and children into lifeboats, and told us that men in first class can come as well if there is room. Unfortunately, that is not me. I told you that the Titanic wasn’t as marvelous as everyone claimed it to be. I hope I make it out of this and find you after. Until then, Josey.
Edgar.
