Answer:
Festival: DIWALI
I traveled to India last year as part of my tour of Asia and i made a brief stop at Kolkata. Fortunately for me, i was right on time to witness the festival of Diwali which usually lasts for five days and celebrated between mid-October and mid-November.
Diwali is a celebration that is peculiar to Hinduism and according to locals, it symbolizes the spiritual victory over light and darkness.
In preparation for the celebration, the locals in Kolkata made a whole make-over of their surroundings by cleaning, decorating and renovating their houses and workplaces. They were on their best attires and offered <em>puja </em>(which i was told means worship) to Lakshmi the goddess of prosperity and wealth.
The first day of Diwali was accompanied by making beautiful decorations and cleanings. The second day is known as <em>Naraka Chaturdashi. </em>The third day which is the day of Lakshmi Puja is the darkest night of the traditional month. The fourth day of Diwali is dedicated to the union of husband and wife and the last day is known as Bhai Dooj which is dedicated to the relationship between brother and sister.
The locals at Kolkata look forward to this day with great enthusiasm and gusto. I stayed in Kolkata for the entire five days of celebration before i moved on to another city.

The Gettysburg address’ first paragraph, by Abraham Lincoln, introduces the topic and hooks the audience. The phrase that uses Lincoln is a biblical reference to “three score year and ten” which supposedly was the time humanity was supposed to live. Lincoln changed to “Four score and seven years ago…” to start its speech and catch people´s attention.
Answer and Explanation:
A meaningful drill suitable for teaching students what a substantive clause is would be a list with several sentences where some contain the substantive clause and others do not. In this case, students should identify the sentences that contained the substantive clauses and underline these clauses.
It is important to point out that the noun clause is the dependent clause that replaces the noun, which is the class of words that gives name to any element. An example of this noun clause can be seen in the sentence "She was frightened by the sight in front of her," where the term "the sight in front of her" replaces a noun and is therefore a noun clause.
In addition, it is important to remember that a meaningful drill is an exercise where the resolution depends on the understanding of the subject discussed.
