6 0

Answer:

Tom becomes a religious fanatic and frequents churches all the time tirelessly. All of this is the result of fear and despair about what his soul's destiny will be.

Explanation:

"The devil and tom walker" tells the story of Tom who sold his soul to the devil in exchange for a treasure that left him rich and powerful. Tom was not religious and sold his soul without thinking twice, because he believed that nothing in the world would be more pleasurable for him than having a lot of money, for this reason, after selling his soul and getting paid, Tom lived a long life of wealthy people. and he was very happy that way, but when he realized that his life was coming to an end he was extremely nervous and very afraid to go to hell and suffer for eternity. This fear and despair at not knowing what would happen to him made him a religious fanatic. He tried desperately to save himself by attending churches all the time, carrying bibles wherever he went and praying frantically, but nothing was able to save him.

Give an example of what might influence the interpretation of an event.
Savatey [412]
Interpretation is defined as a process of the creation of meaning. Life is a series of events, and with each event we attach a meaning . With each event we decide upon an interpretation . It is with these interpretations or attached meanings that we define who and what we are and what we can have and do. Then we go about life collecting evidence to confirm and validate these interpretations . A person's interpretation of an event can be affected through anger , the feeling of being a victim, not making the right decision, negative interpretation and past events among others. That's why it is so important to learn to be in the moment ' in order to experience the genius of you, who you really are, to experience the infinite . No doubt there is a bigger picture out there for your life; it is up to you to master the art of the interpretation

I need someone to write a children's story that involves trucks . will give brainliest
german

Answer:

Hi- not sure how long you want it to be, or how advanced the vocab, but I gave it a go!

Explanation:

Edward was 4 when his mother gave him the toy truck. He was instantly in love. With little flames painted on the side and big wheels on the bottom, the toy was exciting and fun to play with. His parents, who saw how happy Edward was with the truck, gave him hundreds more trucks to keep him smiling. They gave him every truck imagineable- big, small, manual,  even remote controlled! Eventually, Edward had a small room full of trucks that he liked to play with. Even with all the other trucks, though, Edward's favorite was still the little truck with the flames.

One day, Edward was playing outside with his little flame truck when he pushed it too hard and it started rolling down the sidewalk. Edward started to chase after it when his parents started calling for him. "Edward, you know you aren't allowed to leave the front yard!" they said. Edward tried to explain what had happened, but by the time they started looking, Edward's truck was gone. Edward was heartbroken, and vowed to stay in his bed all day tomorrow.

The next day, a big green garbage truck stopped by Edward's house. Usually, Edward loved seeing the big truck in action, but today Edwards was too sad to go look. Soon, the doorbell rang. Edward ignored this, too.

"Edward! Come here, sweetie." yelled Edward's mother. Slowly, Edward got up from his bed and walked to the front door. Standing there was his mother and one of the garbage men. "The garbage man has something to give you," explained his mother.

The garbage man crouched down to be on eye-level with Edward. "I believe I have something that belongs to you," he said as he opened his fist. There was Edward's flamed truck! Edward through himself at the garbage man and thanked him for saving his truck.

Now, whenever the garbage truck stops by Edward's house, Edward waves to the garbage man with his own truck in his hands.
