<span>President Ronald Regan’s goal
for this speech was to see the destruction of the Berlin Wall. However, it was not just the destruction of
the wall that President Ronald Regan was calling for. The call for the taking down of the wall was
really a call to end the Communist rule over East Germany. An end to Communist control over East Germany
would have seen the beginning of peace and stability across Eastern Europe,
which is what the goal really was by President Ronald Regan’s saying “Mr.
Gobachev, tear down this wall!”</span>
Well I can answer what the word beast suggests about the text.
I think it is suggests that they don't know much about the people of Mars, the life forms that lived there so they are frightened of them. They know that they are intelligent, or were, but also acknowledge how the planet is nearly impossible to sustain life with all of its water frozen.
Hope that helped, I don't know much about English class in highschool yet so I wasn't sure exactly how to answer the question.
Superflous means:
above what is needed
Hope this helps (:
<span>Tom and Lily do not want to visit the Hatchings after picking up their scooter because they are frightened as hell if Mr. Noake will find out about the sunlight only to come and then ruin their place. It was the only area where both Tom and Lily freely plays whenever they want and Mr. Noake does not want the children to be exposed. </span>
