Answer:

The tradition began with the store's original owner, Margot Thistle, in her desire to keep the hope and excitement of the New Year alive.

However, Margot's daughter began to skimp on costs.

With the help of her grandson, Andre, she rebuilt the toy store and its New Year’s display into a fantastical delight.

Margot and Andre were thrilled to once again give their community a magical winter experience at the start of each year.

Explanation:

A summary is a shortened version of a piece of writing (e.g. a paragraph, chapter, entire book). It should contain the main ideas and only the most important details.

The sentences that should be included in a summary of the given literary text are:

  • The tradition began with the store's original owner, Margot Thistle, in her desire to keep the hope and excitement of the New Year alive.
  • However, Margot's daughter began to skimp on costs.
  • With the help of her grandson, Andre, she rebuilt the toy store and its New Year’s display into a fantastical delight.
  • Margot and Andre were thrilled to once again give their community a magical winter experience at the start of each year.

They mention all of the characters (Margot, her daughter, and her grandson, Andre), the conflict (how the family tradition ended up in a problem), and the resolution (how Margot and Andre rebuilt the store), which are the most important elements of the story.

Write an objective summary about teens and technology
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

How would you feel if your family members started ignoring you because of technology? Technology is a helpful piece of equipment that almost everybody uses in everyday life, such as work, games and social media. Despite technology being a helpful piece of equipment, teenagers rely too much on technology and it has a negative effect on their relationships and education. Advantages for technology is that people can get information off the internet, and can type information is a word document instead of writing. Disadvantages of technology is that teenagers rely too much on it, they use it every day, and can copy other people’s work. The internet has made our lives easier, however it has destroyed the education and relationships of people.

I hope it helps you mate

Short-response prompt (15 points) Read the following passage from the beginning of Stephen Crane's 1897 story "The Open Boat." I
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Two themes to be explored could be madness/doom and survival.

Explanation:

Madness: when the line separating reality from imagination is blurred, people begin to act strangely, madly, and loose the ability to cope with feelings of anxiety or desperation in a coherent, healthy way.

- Why will this situation be developed? The situation of the four stranded seamen is condemned to become cahotic if their circumstances remained unchanged. The captain is already showing signs of desperation and paranoia in the form of a "stern impression of a scene in the grays of dawn...".

Survival: when people find themselves in life or death situations, a number of psycological mechanisms begin to activate to ensure survival: among them an increased sense of competitiveness. Also, people tend to become more resourceful to maximize the odds of preserving life, yet they also turn more viscious and territorial.

- Why will this situation be developed? The story is about four men stranded at sea, and though we lack information regarding their specific circumstances (food, supplies, tools), it is clear that their lives are at stake. The laws that rule society apply differently when the only concern is to remain alive and the circumstances are extreme.

Since savings banks have to use short-term deposits to finance long-term fixed-rate mortgage loans, they sometimes lose money wh
amid [387]

Answer:

The correct answer is B: when short-term rates rise and they are unable to raise

Explanation:

When you look through all the choices, option D and E are first eliminated because they used "with" to start, when in fact the essay makes use of "when", which is correct. We want to have "when" in the sentences, hence we are left with three choices; A, B, and C.

Now, looking at the connectors of A, B, and C, Option A is connected with "on the other hand", Option B is connected with "and", while Option C is connected with "correspondingly".

"On the other hand" makes no sense as a connector because there is no contrast in the statement, and this eliminates option A. Similarly, it is incorrect to use "and" and "correspondingly", as this does not flow, thus eliminating C.

The correct answer is therefore B.
