The irony is both of them sold their most prized possessions to get the other a special christmas present, however both of their presents are designed for the prized possession each one sold.
This is critic as both characters realised that the other person would give up their prized possession for them to be happy. This is a key message sent by the author through this book. They are wise as they know that people should be more valued over possessions.

2. "And then, she picked the creature up, which it began talking to her in a quiet, yet sweet voice, though it was very creepy to have it talk."

3. "This strange creature then asked Ellie three questions; 'What is your name?' 'Where are you from?' and 'How old are you?'. Ellie answered every question, but I wonder why the creature even asked? What do you think will happen now?"

Answer:

Teachers play a significant role in everyone's life. They motivate kids to pursue their dreams and also make them better personalities.

For kids, showing their affection to teachers matter the most. With no doubt, they are ready to do anything to impress their teachers — be it in the form of cards, speech, gifts, chocolates etc.

However, the headache goes to parents as they need to prep their kids for the Teacher’s Day. Most of the parents would be running here and there to train their little one for the celebration.

Answer:

Photosynthesis is an endothermic reaction because sunlight energy is absorbed during the process of photosynthesis by the plants. Photosynthesis is the process through which plants convert light energy into chemical energy. Here is the chemical reaction involved: As we can see, water and carbon dioxide combine to form glucose and oxygen. Since new chemical species are formed, photosynthesis is clearly a chemical change.

What do you think about fast growing salmon?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
Fast growing Salmon to me would be a freak of nature. Most likley some idiot put some steriods in the ocean, but also must mean something is happening with where they live and they are trying to adapt to what has happened.
