First of all, find how many sentences are in 17 pages. If in one page there are 120 sentences, in 17...

17*120 = 2040 sentences.

Now, she can read 14 sentences in one minute, how many minutes to read 2040 sentences?

2040 : 14 = 145,71 minutes (about 146 mins).

So, in an hour there are 60 minutes

146 : 60 = 2,42 hours (about 2,5)

But you can also convert 145,71 mins = 2 hours and 25 mins.

Let's start off by finding how many sentences Jolie has left to read. We know that there are 120 sentences on a page and she has 17 pages left.
120*17=2040
She has 2040 sentences left to read.
Now, let's calculate how many hours it will take her to finish her reading. We know she reads 14 sentences in a minute and there are 60 minutes in an hour. 
14*60=840
She will read 840 sentences in an hour.
Now, we will divide 2040 by 840 to find how many hours it will take for her to finish reading.
2040/840= 2.43
It will take Jolie approximately 2.43 hours to finish her reading.

Write a paragraph on a storm in a about 100 words
inn [45]

Answer:

I shot up in bed awakened by the sound that I had thought was my alarm clock. I was surprised to find that the glowing red LED lights read 2:11 am. If it wasn't the alarm clock what was it? I had thought to myself while wiping the sleep from my eyes. Suddenly I heard a deafening crack. The type of crack you hear when you pour boiling water on ice. While the noise filled my ears a blinding light lit up my bedroom. I could make everything out as if someone had just flipped the switch on. I saw my vanity clear as day across the room.

t took a few moments before I came to my senses and realized what was happening. I had scanned the weather only hours on my laptop and had not noticed any warnings of a storm approaching. But here I was looking out my bedroom window face to face with the violent beast.

Suddenly I heard another deafening crack of thunder. This one so powerful my whole house trembled under the force of the storm. Like a child I ran for the security of my bed. Still warm from the few hours I had previously spent peacefully sleeping in it. I crawled deep within my blankets, covering myself from head to toe. Leaving nothing but a small space exposed, just large enough for me to see out of.

It felt like hours I lied there listening to the storm wishing that it would pass. Just when I thought it had moved on I was proven wrong and it gave me another terrifying blast as if it just needed a moment to put all of its power together.  

My eyelids became so heavy that the struggle to keep my eyes open became stronger than my fear of the storm.  The warmth that my body had generated under the blankets was getting to me. I was falling asleep. Despite my intense fear of closing my eyes and leaving myself vulnerable to the storm I eventually drifted off.

Despite the fear that the storm had embedded on my soul and the disaster it had turned my yard into. It sure did bring on a beautiful day.
