Read this excerpt from "Close Encounters of the Bear Kind" by Susan E. Quinlan.

English
1 answer:
ivanzaharov [21]3 years ago
3 0

The author conveys her viewpoint that the scientist, John Hechtel, is concerned about bear conservation by relaying how John says that more information is needed about bears and their behavior to protect them and their habitats.

The author depicts Hechtel's life work as an important part of the effort to protect North American black bears. After describing the potentially controversial aspects of his job (how he tracks and tranquilizes the bears), Quinlan chose to write down a lengthy quote by the scientist himself to explain why he is doing this data-collecting work. This indicates that she shares or supports his concerns about bear preservation, because she conveyed it using Hechtel's own words.

Aleks [24]
It’s a shame, then, that the second part of Pauling’s advice tends to be overlooked: “Most of (your ideas) will be wrong, and what you have to learn is which ones to throw away.”  It’s certainly true that most ideas written on a Post-It note or submitted to an online system never get used, but the reason has more to do with a bias toward short-term payback in most innovation processes than informed filtration

Hi every body <br><br>I need a summary of War by Luigi Pirandello could you help me please?​

Answer:

Of course :)

Explanation:

Some travelers from Rome are obliged to spend most of the night aboard a second-class railway carriage, parked at the station in Fabriano, waiting for the departure of the local train that will take them the remainder of their trip to the small village of Sulmona. At dawn, they are joined by two additional passengers: a large woman, “almost like a shapeless bundle,” and her tiny, thin husband. The woman is in deep mourning and is so distressed and maladroit that she has to be helped into the carriage by the other passengers.

Her husband, following her, thanks the people for their assistance and then tries to look after his wife’s comfort, but she responds to his ministrations by pulling up the collar of her coat to her eyes, hiding her face. The husband manages a sad smile and comments that it is a nasty world. He explains this remark by saying that his wife is to be pitied because the war has separated her from their twenty-year-old son, “a boy of twenty to whom both had devoted their entire life.” The son, he says, is due to go to the front. The man remarks that this imminent departure has come as a shock because, when they gave permission for their son’s enlistment, they were assured that he would not go for six months. However, they have just been informed that he will depart in three days.

The man’s story does not prompt too much sympathy from the others because the war has similarly touched their lives. One of them tells the man that he and his wife should be grateful that their son is leaving only now. He says that his own son “was sent there the first day of the war. He has already come back twice wounded and been sent back again to the front.” Someone else, joining the conversation, adds that he has two sons and three nephews already at the front. The thin husband retorts that his child is an only son, meaning that, should he die at the front, a father’s grief would be all the more profound. The other man refuses to see that this makes any difference. “You may spoil your son with excessive attentions, but you cannot love...

"Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet has many themes, including the powerful nature of both love and fate. Choose one or more SECONDA
tigry1 [53]
You could write about all of them because they all help to further the story. I might choose tybalt because he is the main guy who has a problem with romeo. You will need topics for each paragraph and strong beginning section and thesis and a nice closing paragraph. Stay away from using to much of the obvious things and throwing in a few quotes won't hurt. And DON'T FORGET to cite it! That is very important, unless your teacher doesn't make you do that but in high school they typically tend to. If you have any more questions about Romeo and Juliet I will be here to help, I read this during freshman year in high school.
