Answer:
he story of “How the Whale got his tiny Throat” by Rudyard Kipling was first published in St Nicholas Magazine, in December 1897. It was collected in Just So Stories, 1902, illustrated by the author and followed by the poem “When the cabin port-holes are dark and green.”
The story tells that once upon a time the Whale ate fishes of all types and sizes. At last there was only one left in the sea, a small astute fish that hid behind the whale’s ear and advised him to eat a shipwrecked mariner. The Whale swallowed the mariner and the raft he was sitting on.
But then the mariner was inside, he started to jumped around so much that the Whale got hiccups and asked him to come out. The mariner answered that he would not, unless he was taken to the shore of his British home, and hopped harder than ever. So the Whale took him to the beach and the mariner came out. But in the meantime the clever mariner had made his raft into a grating which he secured in the Whale’s throat with his suspenders. Forever after, the Whale could only eat the smallest of fishes.
the central idea of the passage is that:
Because of one man’s actions, whales never eat human beings.
Answer:
I think it is D.) Scientist have spent years trying to determine how tsunamis can be predicted with greater accuracy.
Explanation:
Words like ain't, you guys, or y'all would not be worlds you would want to put in a formal style or tone.
So, words such as determine, predicted, and greater accuracy, are formal in a way. Just think of it this way, the sentence would sound as if someone who was smart was speaking or someone who is very FORMAL.
I hope this helped you ; )
The power (or exponent) of a number says how many times to use the number in a multiplication.
It is written as a small number to the right and above the base number.
In this example the little "2" says to use 8 two times in a multiplication:
82 = 8 × 8 = 64
But power can also mean the result of using an exponent, so in the previous example "64" is also called the power.
Another example: 24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 16
• the power is 4: "2 to the power 4 is 16"
• or we can say the power is the result of 16: "the 4th power of 2 is 16"
The Corona virus has changed our lives. It happened so fast and quickly, in one blink. Scientists have said that the virus is not new and has been around for a few years. Hopefully a cure is found soon for this. It is hard to see people dying from it and suffering from it every day.
