<em>Worthwhile . </em>This is the correct option.

Worthwhile means: useful, valuable, effective and significant. The Pony Express, which was a sort of mailing service (XIX) that connected the West and the East in the U.S during the mid 1800's, was very useful and valuabe for the author. This mailing service was carried out by horses which were run by different riders. The horse riders stopped at different points and were replaced by other riders. This sytem was faster than sending mail by ship or coaches. It was also significant because the system was so effective that Lincoln's inagural speech (1861) reached California in a very short time. Therefore, the author thinks that the <em>Pony Express</em> was effectively organized ; men and horses were used to make the coasts be connected and the effort was valuable because it must have given origin to the organization of the means of communication in the U.S.

These options are not right:

-History ( This refers to a field of   study. It does not refer to an opinion. The <em>Pony Express</em> is part of the U.S History).

-Monument ( This is a noun. The writer labels the <em>Pony Express</em> with this word. There is not an opinion  in the word).

-Physical ( This is an adjective that shows the type of work that was needed. This work was physical. The description is objective. It is not reflecting the author's opinion).

Paragraph writing A pleasant day in winter
lys-0071 [83]

Out of all the seasons, winter is my favorite season. Firstly, every school announces holidays when the winter season is at its peak so it gives me an excellent time to enjoy this season to its fullest. I get to sleep in my warm blanket without having to worry about getting up early in the morning. In morning, it is all foggy on the road and fumes come out of mouth when we speak.

I love to go for long walk when sun is at its peak and breathe fresh air. When there is heavy snowfall in my area and I am unable to go outside then I prefer to stay at home and read books while enjoying my hot chocolate. The beautiful sight of snow falling down the trees is very exciting to watch from my window. I really enjoy this moment.

Winter season gives me an opportunity to spend plenty of time with my friends and family. Every year, community members arrange several sports activities in my area so that everyone can take part in sports. These activities include skating, skiing, ice hockey and ice racing. There is also a competition of creating best ice sculptures and the one who wins gets a trophy.

I also take part in this competition and I have won twice. I also enjoy snow fights with my friends. Everyone around me is busy in making his own perfect snowman. I also get plenty of time to play many indoor games with my siblings including table tennis, badminton and squash.

Another thing that I like about winter season is that I get to eat all my favorite fruits including apples, guava, oranges and pomegranate. I have developed a habit of eating fruits every morning to keep my body healthy and energetic. I also love to sit with my family on a bright sunny day and eat oranges.

There is nothing more exciting than eating oranges while soaking sun on winters while having a talk session with family. I put on warm clothes and sit in the sun for hours. My mother also makes stews and soups for us every night to keep our body warm. I also love to eat dry fruits in this season including almonds, pistachio and walnut. On weekends, my family also arrange gatherings.

We spend really good time by doing bonfires, barbeque and drinking coffee. Every year, my grandma knits colorful sweaters and hand gloves for me and my siblings to bear severe cold. I love these sweaters and flaunt them in front of my friends proudly.

Another amazing thing about winters is that so many exciting festivals and cultural events occur in this season like Diwali, Eid and Christmas. These festivals bring holiday spirit in me.

I anxiously wait for these festivals to enjoy and celebrate with my family. I also make sure to distribute warm clothes among poor people with my family too especially during these festivals.

It is very difficult for those poor people to survive in such cold weather. They do not have enough warm blankets and clothes. It is important to help them too.

HELP FAAST PLEASE 7. Good What images does Thomas create with his words in this stanza (what do you see in your head based on hi
max2010maxim [7]

Answer (You didn't tell me what poem and which stanza) Is it this poem? :

"Do not go gentle into that good night" by Dylan Thomas

Do not go gentle into that good night,

Old age should burn and rave at close of day;

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,

Because their words had forked no lightning they

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright

Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,

And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight

Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,

Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

What images does Thomas create with his words in this stanza (what do you see in your head based on his descriptions)?:

Thomas wrote "Do not go gentle into that good night" during a very specific moment in Dylan Thomas's life. His father, David John Thomas, had first introduced him to the wonder of language by reading him Shakespeare before bed at night. Thomas's father was a grammar school teacher, but he had always wanted to be a poet but was never able to realize his dream. Thomas wrote "Do not go gentle into that good night" because his father was dying.
