Source: King, Stephen. It. New York: Penguin, 1987. Print. Which theme would be advanced by the tone in the above passage best?

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

<span>Richie had felt a mad, exhilarating kind of energy growing in the room. . . . He thought he recognized the feeling from his childhood, when he felt it everyday and had come to take it merely as a matter of course. He supposed that, if he had ever thought about that deep-running aquifer of energy as a kid (he could not recall that he ever had), he would have simply dismissed it as a fact of life, something that would always be there, like the color of his eyes . . . . Well, that hadn't turned out to be true. The energy you drew on so extravagantly when you were a kid, the energy you thought would never exhaust itself—that slipped away somewhere between eighteen and twenty-four, to be replaced by something much duller . . . purpose, maybe, or goals . . . .

soldier1979 [14.2K]

A theme is the message the playwright is trying to communicate to the audience. Themes are usually topics that should be analyzed by the audience in order to reflect about the message behind the play, and on their own reality.

A plot are the events and actions that happen in a drama. It could be a synonym of the story itself, since the plot refers to the sequence of events.

The setting is the time and place in which the drama is set. It is usually found at the beginning of the play, and it gives information about the context of the story, and prepares the reader for the action.

Characters are the people or creatures who are part of the drama. They are the ones that either perform or are affected by the actions. It is through their dialogues that the playwright explores the themes in the play.

Write a short article for a popular magazine about how to make decisions. Give examples of some common decisions that people hav

Oxana [17]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The Best Way to Make Decisions.

Many traits characterize a good leader. But one of the most important traits is his capacity to make decisions. Furthermore, his capacity to make decisions under pressure.

Deciding on a daily basis might seem an easy thing to do. But that is not the case. Just remeber the decisions you have to make daily. What to do, where to go, the classes you have to attend and why, the homework to do, the articles and books to read, study time vs entertainment, and many more.

Now in the corporate world, the leader has so many difficult decisions to make daily and many more under difficult moments.

And part of the difficulty is that the leader is not thinking just in himself. A true leader has to think about his team. Yes, what is best for the group of people you are leading.

That is why the basic recommendations to make decisions are the following.

First, identify the problem. This is the basic step. If you do not know what the problem is, it is going to be difficult to resolve.

Then, find the causes of the problem, Is it you? The other people? The situation? What is causing the problem.

Next, gather evidence to rally understand what the problem is, what is causing, and the effects of it.

What follows is to identify alternatives, weigh the evidence and not allow any bias at this moment.

Get a couple of good alternatives and choose the best. And immediately take action. This is very important, to take action.

After the action has been implemented, evaluate. Yes, you have to check if the decision really was good and helped to solve the issue at hand.

Don't forget this. One day you will be the leader of your department or company and people are going to look up to you because they know you are in charge. They expect that on any decision you are going to consider their necessities and concerns. That is why you are the leader.

So learn to be an excellent one.

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Although the terms "climate change" and "global warming" are sometimes used interchangeably, they have different meanings. Similarly, the terms "weather" and "climate" are sometimes used interchangeably, despite the fact that they refer to events with vastly distinct spatial and temporal scales.
