Read the excerpt from "Flight into Yesterday." The plane reached the end of the runway, and Amelia swung it around. Home was 7,0

00 miles away, on the far side of the Pacific Ocean, and she yearned to be there. But one thing at a time. At this moment her job was to get the plane safely off the ground. The runway stretching ahead was a strip carved out of the jungle. About 3,000 feet long, it ended at a cliff that dropped away into the ocean. Amelia pushed both throttles forward. The plane moved slowly, heavy with fuel for the long ocean flight that lay ahead. At last it began to gather speed. It went fast and faster, hurtling toward the cliff. Almost at the very edge she felt it leave the ground. They were safely off, flying low over the ocean, but flying. Now she could concentrate on gaining altitude. She could start picking out the islands that would serve as landmarks for the early part of the flight. Now, read a list that shows a sequence of events based on the excerpt. A. Earhart tried to identify places that could help guide her. B. The plane moved slowly because it was loaded with fuel. C. The plane moved quickly as it headed toward the cliff. D. Earhart turned the plane around on the runway. What is the correct order of events? A, B, C, D A, C, B, D D, B, C, A D, C, B, A

It's not that good by an example can be...

Dear Diary,
I remember when I was 8 years old, my parents took me to the zoo for the first time. I was thrilled and amazed by how many different animals there were. I can still remember how fast my heart was beating, and how many times I got scolded for running off, because I wanted to see another creature such as a giraffe.
The next most exciting thing after entering the zoo was that I was allowed to pat a lion cub. It had golden fur which felt smooth to touch, and pointy whiskers that poked my skin. After that I had small pink bumps on my arms from the times when the cubs whiskers had poked me.
I loved that day so much that when it was finally time to leave I was reluctant to go and threw a small tantrum, which washed away when my parents promised to take me again. So, that visit to the zoo was the most memorable day of my life, because of how I felt.

How Imperialism involved land acquisition.

Between 1880 and 1900, Great Britain, France, and Germany, among others, colonized Africa

In North Africa, the Suez Canal was built to connect the Mediterranean and Red Seas and callow for transport between Europe and Asia

The real driving force behind the colonization of Central Africa was King Leopold II

By 1885, Britain and Germany had become chief rivals in East Africa

Nowhere in Africa did the European presence grow more rapidly than in the South

How Imperialism involved extraction of raw materials

Cecil Rhodes, a great champion of British Expansion, founded gold and diamond mining companies

Europeans had a keen interest in Africa's raw materials, especially those of West Africa-peanuts, timber, hides, and palm oil

How Imperialism involved spread of Western values

Muhammad Ali seized power in North Africa in 1805 and established a separate Egyptian state; he introduced a series of reforms

The Boer Republics formed two independent republics-The Orange Free State and The South African Republic; they believed white superiority was ordained by God

Native African peoples formed political parties seeking the end of foreign rule

How Imperialism involved direct political control

European countries annexed African countries-incorporated a country into an existing political state

Several European countries met to settle conflicting claims on African countries at the Berlin Conference; no African delegates were present at this conference

Most countries ruled their new territories in Africa with indirect rule

Unfortunate consequences of European rule in Africa included indirect rule, the old African Elite, and local officials

Discuss whether the Loisels chose the right course of action when they found the
KIM [24]

Answer:

I do not think the Loisels choice after loosing the necklace was good because they had suffered for 10 years trying to pay it off. Instead, they could have told the truth to Mme. Forstier and saved their labor and money. They did not do this because they were too afraid of the evil punishments that could have happened
