STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

i'm not sure what chapter 12 contains, but i'll suggest for you to first read through the text and note/highlight the most important parts that concern the relationship between adults and children. note the differences, comparisons, similarities.. after you write down all your notes, explain how they're presented and make sure to add enough vital information that will be clear and concise. of course, you'll have to use one piece from the text to support your analysis, so choose one part that stands out the most. after you finish your rough draft, sift through the whole thing, and see if you can spot any mistakes or changes you could fix/add. use clearer words, add a few more details, and then you can hand in your final draft. try not to rush, and always remember, <u>it's okay to fail.</u>

Kites: Birds of Glory
Margaret [11]

Answer:

The idea that kites are skillful fliers is all throughout the text. Both in comparison and in contrast with birds, the author develops the concept of a kite as if an actual living bird, and as one, it has its own skills and characteristics.

Explanation:

The text begins with a general overview on raptors, and then he says: "The most glorious feathers of the peacock or the vibrant plumage of a bunting cannot compete with the power of a peregrine falcon or the determination of an osprey. Included in this group of hunters, however, is one bird of prey that is little known but equally impressive. The kites of the world are generally smaller than most raptors, but just as astonishing in skill and grace as any other hunter of the skies." Here, we have the very first moment in which kites are seen as skillful fliers.

Then, he/she goes on with its characteristics and the author itself states that "kites are generally masterful in the air and represent a group of birds that are among the most acrobatic of fliers." To continue with this idea of kites as living birds, the author claims "if you are lucky enough to see one in flight, you will be amazed at the quick turns, graceful moves, and speedy pursuits of this bird". With this, he/she's comparing a situation which sightseers are very familiar with: the difficulty of seeing the most majestic birds. "Look for them above large fields, especially during the summer" completes this concept by giving you the place where you can find them, because he/she knows they are graceful and you should not miss them.

Finally, the author gives us the idea of kites being like birds when he describes them physically and compares them with "common birds" which cannot catch their preys while flying: "Both kites are known to eat while flying, unlike most other birds of prey. This practice conserves energy and allows them to hunt almost continuously".
