Answer:
"First, the plesiosaur is an air breather." is the line from the article that best disproves the plesiosaur theory. In the article, the author argues that because plesiosaurs were air breathers, they would need to come up for air more frequently than any sightings ever occur.

Answer: The reaping stage in District 12.A reaping was an annual event that took place in every district before each Hunger Games, where the tributes of the upcoming Games were chosen.Each district's escort randomly chose the name of one male and one female tribute from two separate glass balls. Those picked are then the official tributes for the upcoming Games. Only children aged 12-18 were reaped.The District 12 reapings for the 75th Hunger GamesOnce of age, a potential tribute's name was entered into the reaping one time. The entries were cumulative, so when a possible tribute was thirteen, their name was added one more time. This continued until age 18, when a potential tribute's name was entered 7 times, or more if they apply for tesserae.Each age group was contained in roped-off areas in the town square, waiting for someone to be picked. The reapings took place at different times in different districts, so that Capitol citizens could watch them all live on television. Many members of the Capitol often placed bets on who would be chosen. Unless someone was on their deathbed, they would be imprisoned for not attending their district's reaping.The District 12 reaping took place in the center of town, in a place called the Justice Building[1] (Hall of Justice in the films)[2].

Explanation:
The poem "My Bed is a Boat" by Robert Louis Stevenson is a four-lined four-stanza poem that describes the very childlike scene for a child to sleep. Describing his bed as a boat, he fantasizes that sleeping is like sailing on a journey, which is a rather exciting way for a child to view sleep.
This children poetry simplifies the theme of sleeping and captures the childish nature of how sleep can be imagined as. The narrator of the poem is a small child who looks forward to sailing. He begins the poem by saying that "My bed is like a little boat; Nurse helps me in when I embark; She girds me in my sailor's coat And starts me in the dark." This childhood imagination of the very act of sleeping makes it more fun and exciting unlike the ordinary way of putting a child to bed. The second stanza reads "At night I go on board and say Good-night to all my friends on shore" which might be suggestive of the child bidding goodnight to those who are still awake. Children go to sleep before the adults so, the child narrator may have been talking about the adults who are still awake when he had to go to sleep.
