Answer:

Explanation:

Senator Bird is symbolic of Goodness because he ends up helping Eliza after seeing her side of things, which changes his viewpoint on the act that was just passed on run-away slaves. Mr. Bird was a supporter of the fugitive slave act, but after hearing Eliza's side of the story, he changed his viewpoint on it. Mr. Bird figured that it was adults who were being sold, not children being torn from their mothers and wives torn from husbands, so he thought that the fugitive slave act was ok. After changing his viewpoint he then decides to help Eliza escape to a much safer place for Eliza and her son.

¨"I say, wife, she'll have to get away from here, this very night. That

fellow will be down on the scent bright and early tomorrow morning: if

't was only the woman, she could lie quiet till it was over; but that

little chap can't be kept still by a troop of horse and foot, I'll

warrant me; he'll bring it all out, popping his head out of some window

or door. A pretty kettle of fish it would be for me, too, to be caught

with them both here, just now! No; they'll have to be got off tonight."

"Tonight! How is it possible?--where to?"

"Well, I know pretty well where to," said the senator, beginning to put

on his boots, with a reflective air; and, stopping when his leg was half

in, he embraced his knee with both hands, and seemed to go off in deep

meditation.

"It's a confounded awkward, ugly business," said he, at last, beginning

to tug at his boot-straps again, "and that's a fact!" After one boot

was fairly on, the senator sat with the other in his hand, profoundly

studying the figure of the carpet. "It will have to be done, though, for

aught I see,--hang it all!" and he drew the other boot anxiously on, and

looked out of the window.

Now, little Mrs. Bird was a discreet woman,--a woman who never in her

life said, "I told you so!" and, on the present occasion, though pretty

well aware of the shape her husband's meditations were taking, she very

prudently forbore to meddle with them, only sat very quietly in her

chair, and looked quite ready to hear her liege lord's intentions, when

he should think proper to utter them.

"You see," he said, "there's my old client, Van Trompe, has come over

from Kentucky, and set all his slaves free; and he has bought a place

seven miles up the creek, here, back in the woods, where nobody goes,

unless they go on purpose; and it's a place that isn't found in a hurry.

There she'd be safe enough; but the plague of the thing is, nobody could

drive a carriage there tonight, but _me_."

This section of the novel describes Mr. Birds' sudden change of heart because he now sees what horrible thing slavery is through Eliza's story. He explains that she can't be kept at their place, but Mr. Bird knows of a man who can help Eliza get to safety and freedom and that he would take her there that night because he knows Haley will be hot on Eliza's trail by early morning.

Did the son die in the monkeys paw?
mestny [16]

Answer:

After a loved one dies, people often wonder whether they could have done anything to prevent the tragedy. For example, if there was no monkey's paw in this story, Mrs. White might have blamed herself for not stopping Herbert from going to work that day. We know that W.W. Jacobs lost his mother when he was young.

Write a story that explains the saying, "two heads are better than one"​
snow_tiger [21]

<u>Following is the story that explains the saying: Two heads are better than one.</u>

<u></u>

I told you about number one last week. Today, I'll talk about phrases that use different numbers. Some issues are tough to resolve. However, several number expressions might be useful. For example, if we add two and two, we could receive the correct result. We all know that having two heads is preferable to having one. To solve an issue, it is always preferable to collaborate with another individual.

There are moments when there are no two ways about it. Some issues have a single remedy. You can't be in two minds about this. But, with hope, we'll be able to fix the problem with two shakes of a lamb's tail. We might be able to get our answers swiftly and simply.

We can sometimes kill two birds with one stone. That is, we can accomplish two objectives with a single effort or action. But keep in mind that two wrongs do not equal a right. If you do something horrible to someone, you should not do the same to them. You don't want another to accompany you on a date with your friend. You might just tell your friend that "two's a company, three's a crowd."

I had to learn the three Rs while I was in primary school. Studying, reading, and arithmetic are among the most important skills. These three words don't all start with the letter "R." They do, however, have an "R" sound. My lecturers would give me three cheers when I did well in math. They conveyed their gratitude and admiration for the excellent work they had done.  

Some of my classmates were perplexed and didn't grasp their coursework. They were on sixes and sevens at the time. They didn't care if they graduated from high school. They didn't see much of a difference between the two options. That was their situation: six of one, half a dozen of the other. They were, nevertheless, overjoyed when they finished their studies and graduated from high school. They were on cloud nine. They were on a high.  

Students who perform well in school are hired nine times out of ten. Some people work in an office, doing the same thing every day from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. For this type of business, you do not need to dress to the nines or wear your nicest attire.

One of my pals applied for a better position at her office last year. I didn't think she'd get it. I felt she had a one-hundred-to-one chance of getting the job. Others in her office felt her odds were one in a million. One of the reasons was that she had been spotted grabbing forty winks at work. During the day, she slept at her desk for small amounts of time. Her boss, on the other hand, assigned her to the new position at the eleventh hour – at the very last minute. I think her fortunate number was called.
