Answer:

the point that the author is trying to convey is that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. what seems normal and ordinary to you may be someone elses biggest treasure. he bolsters this by giving examples comparing what a bucket of water is for differeent animals. what is a simple thing for the elephant is a home for the fish, and wht is a home for the fish is a big uncrossable path for the mouse.

Salsk061 [2.6K]
Listening to a story can affect understanding dramatically. There are several ways it can do this:

The emphasis put on particular words, phrases, or sentences can point out something or illustrate something that a reader may not have noticed.

When different intonations are used for different characters it can reveal in more depth a character's emotions.

The speed at which particular passages or dialogue is read can affect the way a listener visualizes the action.

Using accent correctly can help a listener understand or interpret the way a non-native speaker views the world, or can reveal what particular words are meant to sound like.

When writing your response, keep these things in mind.

Japan right now has developed a super-cooled superconducting electromagnetic train. These magnets can conduct electricity even after the power supply has been shut off.  By also chilling these coils to a frigid temperature that are connected to the tracks and magnets Japan has manage to save energy.  This result could tell people where the best place is to set up levitating trains.</span>

<span> round and will be great for the economy and will</span>

<span> get you where you need to go even faster than ever.</span>

<span> It will run better in cold climates because it runs faster and</span>

smoother in cold weather. It takes less effort and does not

<span>produce  CO2. This will help lots of people because they can ride</span>

<span>this train and not drive their car, which will save the planet.</span>
