"Sand in the scanty food, sand in the brackish water—water that was drunk lukewarm from a clammy, loathsome water-skin."

This is shows that nature is severe and unkind because sand is getting into the food and water. Also the water is being described as brackish. Brackish water is not pleasant to drink and it can sometimes contain salt water too.

"Sweating in the heat, we had lost the whole day, dreading to be buried alive in the drifting sand. "

This passage also shows the nature's unkindness and severity. It talks about how the heat is terrible and they risk the sands (or nature) swallowing them up.

The other passages are not correct. The first passage described the Arab Sheikh pressing them on...this is not nature. The third option describes nature as pleasant and enjoyable which is the opposite of severe and unkind.

Answer:

Explanation:

In some classes, writing the research paper is only part of what is required in regards to presenting your work. Your professor may also require you to also give an oral presentation about your study. Here are some things to think about before you are scheduled to give a presentation.

1.  What should I say?

If your professor hasn't explicitly stated what the content of your presentation should focus on, think about what you want to achieve and what you consider to be the most important things that members of the audience should know about your study. Think about the following: Do I want to inform my audience, inspire them to think about my research, or convince them of a particular point of view? These questions will help frame how to approach your presentation topic.

2.  Oral communication is different from written communication

Your audience has just one chance to hear your talk; they can't "re-read" your words if they get confused. Focus on being clear, particularly if the audience can't ask questions during the talk. There are two well-known ways to communicate your points effectively. The first is the K.I.S.S. method [Keep It Simple Stupid]. Focus your presentation on getting two to three key points across. The second approach is to repeat key insights: tell them what you're going to tell them [forecast], tell them [explain], and then tell them what you just told them [summarize].

3.  Think about your audience

Yes, you want to demonstrate to your professor that you have conducted a good study. But professors often ask students to give an oral presentation to practice the art of communicating and to learn to speak clearly and audibly about yourself and your research. Questions to think about include: What background knowledge do they have about my topic? Does the audience have any particular interests? How am I going to involve them in my presentation?

4.  Create effective notes

If you don't have notes to refer to as you speak, you run the risk of forgetting something important. Also, having no notes increases the chance you'll lose your train of thought and begin relying on reading from the presentation slides. Think about the best ways to create notes that can be easily referred to as you speak. This is important! Nothing is more distracting to an audience than the speaker fumbling around with notes as they try to speak. It gives the impression of being disorganized and unprepared.

NOTE:  A good strategy is to have a page of notes for each slide so that the act of referring to a new page helps remind you to move to the next slide. This also creates a natural pause that allows your audience to contemplate what you just presented

Answer:

an opportunity to learn how to improve his study habits.

Explanation:

Life is no easy matter, oftentimes it can present us with mishaps and even failures hard to accept; however, it is wise to learn from these experiences rather than allowing to be defeated by them, or even laying the blame on circumstances or other people. For this reason, as one learns from these experiences, it is important to stay motivated to secure better outcomes in the future and avoid deception once again; the best way to do this is to learn from one´s mistakes as one proposes ways to fix these mistakes.
