What is a spring? A spring is a water resource formed when the side of a hill, a valley bottom or other excavation intersects a

flowing body of groundwater at or below the local water table, below which the subsurface material is saturated with water. A spring is the result of an aquifer being filled to the point that the water overflows onto the land surface. They range in size from intermittent seeps, which flow only after much rain, to huge pools flowing hundreds of millions of gallons daily. Springs are not limited to the Earth's surface, though. Recently, scientists have discovered hot springs at depths of up to 2.5 kilometers in the oceans, generally along mid-ocean rifts (spreading ridges). The hot water (over 300 degrees Celsius) coming from these springs is also rich in minerals and sulfur, which results in a unique ecosystem where unusual and exotic sea life seems to thrive. Water flow from springs The amount of water that flows from springs depends on many factors, including the size of the caverns within the rocks, the water pressure in the aquifer, the size of the spring basin, and the amount of rainfall. Human activities also can influence the volume of water that discharges from a spring—ground-water withdrawals in an area can reduce the pressure in an aquifer, causing water levels in the aquifer system to drop and ultimately decreasing the flow from the spring. Most people probably think of a spring as being like a pool of water—and normally that is the case. But springs can occur when geologic, hydrologic, or human forces cut into the underground layers of soil and rock where water is in movement.

The first unneeded info, I'd say, is the sentence that says "They range in size from... gallons daily." More would be "The hot water... seems to thrive." That sentence is irrelevant. As for missing information, I couldn't tell you. I hope this helps :)

The​ policeman's expression looked unpleasantly.
eduard
This seems to be a declarative sentence. It talks about the reaction of the policeman to a specific thing. His expression is not pleasant. What he might saw is something not good and something to worry about. Other possible thing could be there an heinous crime scene that he faced at that moment. It depends on the situation.<span />

igomit [66]

In most stories, the hero is the most common person you can imagine, but then some mentor tells him or her that he or she is special. Or in some other cases, an accident, incident or experiment changes them into a stronger being.

Short answer:

  • It hurts Waverly when her mother tries to make it look better, so she does not like it.
  • The best torture is not about physical pain; it is about mental torture.

Explain and support your ideas/claims with text evidence.

Her mother does her hair. It can be seen in the discussion. Her mother "twisted and yanked on my thick black hair until she formed two tightly wound pigtails" in the morning. Waverly hated it when her mother did her hair. This text shows Her mother twists and yanks her hair into tight pigtails, indicating she was upset with her hairstyle. She disliked her mother's hairstyle.

"We do torture. best torture. "

Understanding the meaning of a lesson is less important to me than learning it. Throughout the story, Waverly uses a number of methods. It was not the "best torture." Torture does not have to be painful to be effective. Tormenting someone's mind requires great pain. Because he is mentally tortured, Waverly is good at chess. So, her mother was correct when she said that "We torture people all the time." It is the best thing that could happen. " "We do torture." "The best torture," she says, without referring to physical pain. For her, the best way to torture someone is to make them feel bad about themselves. The best torture.
