Answer:

The Invisible Red Strin  

 

Ju-Lin is a young Chinese girl living in poverty with her family. When her family must sell her to make ends meet, a traditional Chinese matchmaker buys her to serve as her apprentice. When she got to the house, she was told “First when I am home, you must help me with the cooking and cleaning around the house. When I am traveling, you must accompany me to help carry mt things. In return, you shall have enough to eat and have a small allowance each month. Is that understood.” And after a bit of time Moi-Yun had some clients later that day Ju-Lin ask Moi-Yun “What is the secret of your amazing success, mistress?” Moi-Yun replied with “There is no magic to this Ju-Lin helping people make the right choice in a partner is my passion in life. As the story goes, even at birth, that old matchmaker, God in heaven, ties an invisible red string around the foot of a boy and a girl destined to spend their lives together as husband and wife. No matter the distance or the circumstances, nothing can break this string.” A cople of weeks passed by and a matron came and knocked on the door when Ju-Lin opened the door there was a disgruntled matron. He came inside he talked to Moi-Yun saying “my son is stubborn, and he will not take any women in marring. None of the women in the five naborhoods do not meet his requirements he wants a woman with long peasant feet, and I need someone to tell his there is no women to meet his requirements. So, Ju-Lin the next day went off on her journey to talk to the boy. When she made it, the son just got back from a walk. The matron said "my son, I told you your expectations were unreasonable! Now you will hat to listen to the words of the most respected moi-yun of all five provinces. She couldn’t come in person, but you will hear from her assistant. You should pay close attention, for I have gone through a lot of trouble to moment, but I shall be back shortly.” And she gave him advice and change his lower his expectations.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think this story is trying to say never have to high requirements or you will not get what you want. I think that the way the story updates the character type or story pattern means you must change.  

 

 

Message In A Bottle  

 

 

Christy Dooley is on a famine ship headed to America from Ireland. Just before the St. John reaches Massachusetts, though, it wrecks. He wants to make sure his mother knows what happened to him, so he puts a message and his St. Christopher medal in a bottle and tosses it overboard.  

 

 

I think this story is trying to say never be forgotten. I think that the way the story updates the character type or story pattern means he loves his mother a lot .

Answer:

Because you're handsome, Helen Grey,

Is that a reason to be proud?

Your eyes are bold, your laugh is loud,

Your steps go mincing on their way;

But so you miss that modest charm

Which is the surest charm of all:

Take heed, you yet may trip and fall,

And no man care to stretch his arm.

“why isn’t it Friday yet?”<br> Answer with a paragraph
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

It's Wednesday, which means it's not Friday. There is only one Friday per week. The week system was first developed by the Babylonians approximately 500 B.C. The 28-day lunar cycle was divided into four weeks, each of which had seven days. The seven main heavenly bodies that the Babylonians had viewed were the inspiration for their choice of the number seven. Since the order in which the week was constructed indicates that today is Wednesday rather than Friday, that is why it is not Friday.

Which line in this poem indicates that the poetic speaker is hopelessly in love?
Rzqust [24]

The correct answer is option letter E (He burnt un’wares his wings, and cannot fly away). Taken from the sonnet sequence “<em>Astrophel and Stella</em>” by Philip Sidney (1591), Sonnet 8 narrates the moment when Cupid travelled to England from his native home in Greece, since Greece has fallen under control of the Ottoman Empire. Cupid felt cold in this new territory and as soon as he saw <u>Stella's brilliant face</u>, he thought it was a source of heat, but it was not. Instead, her face was like “<em>like morning sun on snow</em>”, that is, it was bright but cold. The best line in the poem that describes the poetic speaker hopelessly in love is the one in letter E, since this option describes <u>how Cupid's wings were burnt by the flames of Astrophel's desire for Stella</u>. This event leaves Astrophel hopeless and uncertain of Stella’s capacity of loving, after Cupid's best efforts to live in her face.
