Write a short story in 200 – 250 words, with the help of the clues given below. Give a suitable title to the story. It was Mohin
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Short story on Mohini, a new girl in school.

Explanation:

NEVER JUDGE A PERSON OUTWARDLY.

It was Mohini’s first day at the new school. Feeling so nervous, she stood in a corner and watched the students who were laughing and talking excitedly. When she saw four senior students advancing towards her, she was reminded of the girl groups she had seen in movies, the ones who act all so chic and proud, bullying those they deem inferior. This realization made her even more nervous and so, she tried to hide as much as she could.  

When the quartet arrived at her location, she refused to not make any eye contact with them. But as expected, they immediately noticed her and approached her, eyeing her from top to bottom and then up again. When she was asked to introduce herself, she felt so nervous she couldn't even speak properly. Her whole body was tensed, and she didn't even realize that a small circle had formed around her, with students who seem to be waiting for a major showdown.

But the 'leader' of the quartet opened her mouth and began talking in a calm manner which surprised Mohini. She hadn't expected that. The girls introduced themselves as the school's representatives for bullying. That shocked her, the irony! She had expected them to do the act of bullying while in reality, they are fighting against the atrocious act. From that day on, Mohini realized it is never a good thing to judge someone based on outside appearance.

According to Nissani what can be some possible ways to save the forest of third world countries​
Ierofanga [76]

Answer and Explanation:

Nissani first addresses the importance of saving forests in third world countries, as a way not only to promote environmental protection and renewal of environmental resources, but also as a way to protect communities dependent on these forests.

After addressing the problem of forest destruction, it also addresses what we can do to promote the protection of these environments and how we can charge government officials for these practices to be carried out.

Nissani says that firstly, we have to control the world population, doing family planning and promoting sex education, which can reduce overpopulation and the need for environmental resources. It also points to the need to create better economic and environmental policies in these countries, the need to optimize the use of wood and waste recycling, the need for financial incentives for companies and people who explore nature in a sustainable way. In addition, she says it is necessary to promote reforestation.

The difference between epic poetry and medieval romances
galben [10]

epics

•place a lot of the focus on character development and how the character grows throughout the poem

•a main storyline is a single character fighting for the survival of a large nation or society of people

•the protagonist always has heroic reason to fight (to protect his people,to gain honor, riches, etc)

•an epic usually ends in tragedy

romance

•the main focus of the poem is not on the character but rather on the Adventure itself

•the protagonist in a romance is more static, usually concerned only of a single group, family, or class (ex:a knight of the round table)

•the reader is concerned with how the protagonist will face certain trial

•fight for the sake of personal reason (love,god,chivalry)

•romances tend to have happy ending and everything tends to fall into place at last moment
