Mynheer Vandedendur had approached Candide introducing himself as the master of a large sea vessel.

  • In an ongoing negotiation to help transport Candide to Venice in Italy, Candide hastily agrees (without bargaining to the sum of 10,000 piasters.

  • This action was Candides' mistake for no sooner had he agreed to that amount did the disguised Dutch Skipper up the fees to 30,000 piasters for the Dutch skipper estimated that Candide's sheep carried much treasure.

  • In another serious fail, Candide pays the fare, all of it in advance, while two of his sheep were loaded aboard. And somehow, the Dutch Skipper manages to sail away without Candide.

The correction option from the group of answer choices, therefore, is option D.

Answer:

Essay on a story called "David Copperfield"

The full title of “David Copperfield” is “The Personal History, Adventures, Experience and Observation of David Copperfield the younger of Blunderstone Rookery” but it was never published under this name. “David Copperfield” is the story of a child carrying the same name and his journey from childhood till he grows old.

A sad childhood is portrayed in the story where the child loses his father at a young age. As a result, his mother marries again and his step father gives the little child a very hard time. His step father believes that being weak in studies, David needs full attention. After being frustrated by his father, little David one day bites him. The result is that soon he lands into a hostel where he also faces a hard time but makes two friends- James Steerforth and Tommy Traddles. When he returns home during vacations he comes to know that his mother has given birth to a baby boy. Soon both his mother and the baby boy dies and David is left alone to face the torture of his father. His father now sends David to a factory to work.

David runs away from London to Dover and now meets his relative, Aunt Betsey Trotwood. He is now renamed as Trotwood Copperfield and is addressed by the new nickname Trot everywhere. As he grows up many of his loved ones also leave him alone by kissing death including his Aunt Betsey. At a very young age David faces the pain that people do not face in their lifetimes. This makes him a mature and well to do individual. But life takes a much harder lesson after he gets married to Dora Spenlow because she dies facing the pain of her miscarriage early in their marriage. Later David marries the beautiful and sensible Agnes and lives a beautiful life with her and their three children. He also names his daughter after his late aunt Betsey to show how much he loved her and how much he still misses her.

4. In the game you just witnessed, Rock Paper Scissors, when students are eliminated, they must them follow their defeater aroun
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

"The objective of Rock, Paper, Scissors is to defeat your opponent by selecting a weapon that defeats their choice under the following rules:  Rock smashes (or blunts) Scissors, so Rock wins  Scissors cut Paper, so Scissors win"

(not sure why its important in theater arts, sorry)

importance of games in the classroom: "learns to identify patterns of a person's behavior by analysing their decision strategies in order to predict future behavior." to be happy for the other person, instead of jealousy. Celebrating others success and thinking through their decisions and choices while having fun, one of the best ways to learn, if not the very best way!!
