Answer:

What it's basically asking is for you to name two places within the book that you believed were the most important to the story and why. For the why it wants you to explain what was so important about these places that they made the character who they are now.

Read the excerpt from The Dark Game.
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer: A. Extraordinarily important.

Explanation: Based on the information presented in the excerpt, we can infer that the information in the wireless message was extraordinarily important, because all the signs the characters give each other without even saying a word, like that the twitching of "Blinker's" eyes became more pronounced as he was reading the message and also the seriousness of de Grey while he delivered the message.

Write an essay on the telephone
nignag [31]

<em>I GOT THIS FROM A SITE CALLED http://www.preservearticles.com/201104306064/short-essay-on-telephone.html                                                                                                           </em>Modern man enjoys a number of wonderful gifts of science. The telephone is one of them. It is the quickest means of conveying messages from one place to another. After the invention of this instrument, man has conquered time and space.

The telephone was invented by Graham Bell. The mechanical device of telephone is very simple. In every telephone set there is a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter sends the voice of the speaker to the listener.

The receiver receives the voice of the speaker. The two telephone sets are connected by wires. If the wires are detached anywhere, the communication is hampered. Nowadays, the use of wires has been replaced by the micro­wave telephone system. Mobile telephone is the latest development of the telephone system.

The telephone is very useful. It helps all kinds of people beginning from merchants to doctors and lawyers. The latest information about the price and stock of the commodity in market can be available through telephone.

Monopoly in business can be checked. Price can be controlled. The police have telephones in their offices and houses. They receive immediate information about any crime or criminal. They keep contacts, with different police stations in order to catch a culprit. The telephone set is very helpful in the Fire Brigade Office. As soon as information about a fire accident reaches this office through telephone, the fire brigade runs to the accident spot and checks fire.

Now-a-days, the telephone has widely spread. This facility has been extended to the villages. There was a time when the telephone set-was regarded as a sign of aristocracy. But today it has become a necessary object in every family. If the members of a family are staying in different places they can sit at their tea-time and talk with. Each other through telephone. It seems then. That the family members are staying together at one peace.

At present, computerised STD facility has improved a lot. Every place in the country and abroad is contacted through a code number. Different places have different code numbers. Computerisation of telephone has simplified the system a lot.

10 things you'll bring stranded on a boat and why
xz_007 [3.2K]

1. WATER SUPPLY

This is step zero. Honestly, it’s so obvious that we shouldn’t be taking the time to type these words. But we’re going to anyway. ALWAYS HAVE AN EMERGENCY SUPPLY OF WATER ON BOARD. You never know when an emergency may come up, and if being stranded isn’t an emergency, we don’t know what is (P.S. You can’t drink the salt water).

An unwelcome and expensive citation is what awaits the boater who forgets to check the expiration dates on his or her flares. Photo courtesy of Orion

Having a flare gun onboard can make you or break you during an emergency situation—not to mention, it can also prevent you from receiving a citation. Photo Courtesy: Orion

2. FLARE GUN

Do you remember that scene from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia when Charlie shoots himself with a flare gun? Yeah, don’t do that. Using a flare gun can be the difference between life and death. This flag-down technique is helpful during both night and day and can catch someone's attention up to 25 miles away. Just make sure you actually use it outdoors and point it upwards, unlike Charlie.

3. VHF MARINE RADIO

No, this one’s not for the tunes. You’ll use this radio for something a little different. You know, to arrange a rescue? If you’re not too far away from civilization, someone will hear your distress call and contact authorities. Even though it would be cooler to be rescued by a booze cruise, take what you can get. Trust us. Oh, and you might want to learn how to use your VHF radio just in case.

In most boating situations—including emergency situations—the VHF radio is your fastest, most reliable form of communications.

4. A FRIEND

You’re bound to lose your mind without somebody there to keep you company. A trusty companion will help keep your mind occupied while you try and find your salvation—even if it’s just a volleyball with a smiling handprint on it, a la Tom Hanks in Castaway.

5. A STRING QUARTET

Anybody who’s seen the movie Titanic knows that upon learning that their ship was sinking, passengers weren’t exactly pleased. To try and combat the ensuing panic, a Victorian string quartet stayed on deck and played their upbeat tunes right until the boat went under. We’re not saying everyone’s got a group of tuxedo-clad men on standby waiting to play some calming Beethoven, but if there’s one aboard your ship, it couldn’t hurt.

6. A FISHING POLE

Rather than withering in anguish and hunger for days on end (and eventually resorting to cannibalism and eating your shipmate), we suggest a more ethically sound alternative: fishing! Hopefully you’ve got your rods and lures stowed away if you’re a seasoned fisherman, but otherwise, you might have to fashion your own spear from scattered debris and miscellaneous materials. Don’t complain, everyone else in the movies has had to do the same exact thing. Just work on that aim and before you know it: sashimi time!

If you're stranded out in open waters, you better hope that the fish are biting!

7. SPEAKERS

If your boat isn’t equipped with marine stereo speakers (or a string quartet), you bought the wrong boat—but that’s a rant for another time. While you’re sipping on your spare water waiting for a flyby to wave down, put on some Zac Brown Band and kick back. It’ll make the time pass by faster and let you practice your air banjo skills. Also, if the music is coming from an FM radio station, you’re close to land! If it’s from an MP3 device, you’re out of luck.

8. DECK OF CARDS

After those initial stages of panic and desperation, you’re gonna get bored—really, really bored. If you’re trying to make the most of your marooned experience, having a deck of cards to pass the time is a great investment. A game of charades will get old after a while, and you’ll want to make sure to keep the entertainment going so you and your shipmate don’t end up at each other’s throats. Go fish, anyone?

When it comes to having the right survival items onboard, it's best to prepare for the worst—better safe than sorry, right?

9. DIARY

Let’s be honest: help may take a while. This means it’s just you and your thoughts—so, document them! Once you’re rescued, take a look at what you wrote. You may be shocked at its darkness or lack of sense, but it will be a story of pure perseverance and survival.

10. POSITIVE ATTITUDE

Try as best you can to turn your Open Water nightmare into more of a Gilligan’s Island splash bash! Mindset is everything in these types of dire situations, and if you’re planning on making it out alive, you better stay optimistic. Keep your head in the game and try not to lose sight of your sanity. Help is on the way!
