Answer and Explanation:

An example of an email following the prompt is:

Dear ...

How have you been? I hope you and your family are doing well!

I happen to have great news, and I just couldn't wait till next month to tell you when you come to visit! I have had the chance to meet George R. R. Martin! Can you believe that?

Well, let me start from the beginning. There was a competition in the last book convention I went to. The person who could memorize the lines of a whole scene from one of his books would be the winner. You know I have a good memory, so I decided to take a shot. And I won!

So yesterday, he attended the convention as a guest speaker. Once he was done talking and answering questions, he went to a more reserved room away from the crowd. And I, as the winner, was taken there to talk to him! My friend, you can imagine I could barely speak at all! It took me a few minutes to begin acting like a normal human being again!

He was polite and funny. He noticed my nervousness and did everything he could to ease it. He offered me some food and beverages, asked me to have a seat, and even began to ask me about my life. With time, I felt less nervous and began to ask him as many questions as I could about his creative process and so on. I was afraid he would be bored by my questions, but he was really thorough in his answers.

The meeting only lasted around 20 minutes. Once I left the room, I felt like I had just come out of a dream. My legs were moving on their own because my mind stayed in that room. I kept trying to remember every word, every gesture, to make that brief moment eternal in my memories.

I will tell you more soon!

Best regards,

Answer:

Hi, can you explain what the question is referring to?

Explanation:

If you're confused about what a positive social change is, it could be anything like the black lives matter movement or the body positivity trend promoted through social media. A social change is basically a conversion from an older social norm, and the question is asking what the relationship is between social media and positive social change. Hope this helps!

Heroism, and Beowulf, select two characteristics identified by Emerson that you believe a hero must possess. Then, write an 8-10

Goryan [66]

Answer and Explanation:

Emerson determined the characteristics that a hero must possess. Among these characteristics, Emerson emphasizes the idea that a hero must be highly determined, in addition to having the ability to have an attitude to fight any evil that afflicts people, even if this puts the security of that hero at risk. Through this description, we can consider that for Emerson, Beowulf would be a great hero. First, Beowulf presents himself in history as a man who has a strong determination to use his strength for good. Beowulf is determined to help people and that determination is what allows him to face the most terrible beasts that plague innocent citizens. In addition, these beasts are often stronger than he, as Grendel was. This puts Beowulf in danger when facing these beasts, but he understands that he must use everything he has to protect people who cannot get rid of the terror that the beasts present. For this reason, he faces the beasts, even if it puts his safety at risk and causes his death.

One person I know, who could be considered a hero, from Emerson's description, is my mother. My mother always showed a lot of determination in taking care of her children, making sure that all the family's needs were met, through her tireless effort. She also puts herself in front of the problems that her children face, even putting herself at risk if necessary to protect her children. This shows that in addition to presenting the heroic characteristics determined by Emerson, she has strength and courage to face any adversity.
