Mumz [18]

Explanation:

In the beginning of the story, Taylor is amazed of woods and nature. There is a little sadness as she looks at the tree because she knows, she won't see this tree as a whole again, since it has been split by lightning. However, in the middle of story, Taylor is more focused on the bird; she is afraid of the bird and its beak that could "rip the nose of her face", but still concerned about it and interested in it as well. At the end, she becomes lost and frightened, as she doesn't have the idea where she is.

Which site would be the most reliable for information?
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

A site which includes external links to reputable sources

Explanation:

A site with too little text may be trying to avoid the point, or perhaps they really don't know that much. A site with only a few sources listed may be unreliable since they could've just made up what they wrote with no evidence. A site with reputable sources would be the answer since a reputable source would not be indeed reputable without the validations of the people.

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

The complete sentences are:

According to Paine, the government of Great Britain will bequeath nothing that will endure to the colonists.

He also implies that the posterity of any nation has the right to blame their predecessors for their suffering.

Explanation:

The meaning of the word bequeath is to leave something after your death in a literal definition, then in the excerpt, it means that Great Britain won't leave anything of value to the colonist after they're gone.

The meaning of the word posterity in a literal way is the descendants in a family, then in here, it is mention that future generations will live in the place that their predecessors have created and will have the right to blame them if these conditions are not good.

I'm just curious!
topjm [15]

Answer:

My judo instructor is awesome at teaching us how to grapple, but she's also very supportive in other areas of our lives. She's understanding and can almost always magically sense when something is wrong or bothering one of us. Whenever she senses that one of us is having an issue in another part of our life, she lets us take longer breaks and offers to talk if we need someone to listen. Once when I was going through a rough time, she encouraged me to just hang in there and survive, and I'm so thankful for that because the support I got from others at the time was one of the only reasons I could look forward to the next day.  She motivates us to do our best not just in judo, but outside of martial arts as well, and she encourages many of us to go out there, branch out, and explore what we want to do in life. I know many others in my judo class who decided to enter a film competition or try a new painting style or even travel to a place they've never been before because of her encouraging words. So yea, that's her, helping us with judo and life in general.
