The Cay is a children's novel and book one of the Cay series, written by American author Theodore Taylor, and published in 1969. 11-year-old Phillip Enright and his mother board the S.S. Hato to Virginia to escape Curaçao, which has been surrounded by German submarines. The ship is torpedoed, and Phillip, blinded by a blow to the head, is stranded at sea with an old black man called Timothy and a cat called Stew Cat. Initially Phillip, heeding his mother’s racist warnings, is full of distain for Timothy. They come ashore on a cay – a low sandbank. Here Timothy teaches Phillip to look after himself, and their friendship grows. Timothy dies, and a devastated Phillip is rescued, along with Stew Cat. The novel was awarded the Jane Addams Children's Book Award in 1970, but due to controversy over the racism in the novel, the award was rescinded. Opposing this, Taylor described The Cay as "a subtle plea for better race relations and more understanding.”

How has the use of oil and deforestation led to the increase<br> gasses?
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

When oils (fossil fuels) are burned, they release an extremely large amount of carbon dioxide into our air. Carbon Dioxide is a Greenhouse gas which means it traps heat into our air which can be linked to Global Warming.

When large areas of land are cut down (deforestation) then it means Carbon Dioxide is released into our air which can also get trapped and cause Global Warming because it is a Greenhouse gas.

Another thing - As Carbon Dioxide is a Greenhouse gas - Greenhouse gases can lead to a large amount of respiratory diseases and pollution (smog) in areas where deforestation can happen or where fossil fuels are burned and used.

How would you describe love? <br> It is like an interview so I need different opinions.
dedylja [7]

Answer:

I view love as an act that you don't do for yourself but for the person the love is directed towards. I have alway believed true love was doing what was best for the other person weather that means what you would be doing would not be something you would want to do ever again. I view love as an international concept. Love can be shown in many different ways. Being strict about rules and other important things can also be "love" because you are doing what best and keeping the person the love is directed to safe.

What inference can be drawn about the bank clerk's emotional state in this excerpt?
grigory [225]

The question above does not present the text to which it refers. This makes it impossible for me to show you an answer. However, I will show you how you can find the answer you need.

First, you will need to read the text to which the question refers. This reading will be able to show you how the bank clerk is behaving, his thoughts, and the emotions he is expressing. This will be able to show you the emotional state of that character.

This because:

  • Emotional state refers to how the character is mentally.
  • This state is revealed through the behavior and the way the character is expressing his feelings.

Thus, if the bank clerk is acting calmly and expressing feelings that reflect this tranquility, it is because he is in a calm emotional state.

Otherwise, if the character is sad, expressing anger, or any other negative feeling, it means he is in an equally negative emotional state. Likewise, if he displays happy behaviors, expresses joy, love, and any happy feelings, it means he is happy and positive.
