Wyatt and his parents were at the restaurant, waiting for their meals to be delivered. As
they waited, Wyatt's dad was pointing out the ten things he had done wrong during the football
game that afternoon Wyatt always dreaded this post-game ritual, where his dad, a retired
professional football player, listed everything he did wrong during the game. In fact, Wyatt's
dad was so focused on pointing out Wyatt's mistakes that he didn't immediately notice that a
boy and his father had approached the table
"I'm sorry to interrupt your meal, but I was wondering if I could have your autograph?"
the boy asked Wyatt's father.
"Of course, Buddy,' Wyatt's dad replied kindly 'What would you like me to sign?"
As the boy handed Wyatt's dad his baseball cap, the boy's father went on and on about
what a gifted football player his son was, and how proud he was of his son.
Boy, Wyatt thought to himself, that kid is so lucky It must be nice to have a father who
thinks you're great and doesn't point out every single mistake you make
They spoke for a few more minutes, until the servers arrived at Wyatt's table with their
food. After the boy and his father returned to their own table, Wyatt's father went right back
to critiquing his son's performance on the football field
When Jeff and his father returned to their own table, they discussed how friendly Mr.
Mathews had been Jeff's father began to tell Jeff about the unfortunate injury that resulted
in an early retirement for Mr. Mathews
Boy, Jeff thought to himself, that kid is so lucky It must be nice to have a father who
knows so much about football. I bet Mr. Mathews is able to give his son helpful pointers all the
time
Theme:
And what make you think that
Answer:
Other people might want what you have

Jeff wanted a father like Mr. Matthews while Wyatt wanted a father like Jeffs

Explanation:
ironic how hes getting nervous during a nerve cure
Irony is used frequently in Saki's short story “The Open Window.” When Vera's uncle arrives, the visitor leaves the house after Vera had told a visitor that her uncle is deceased. It states, “I hope Vera has been amusing you,” in paragraph 16 Thus, option A is correct.
What irony from “The Open Window” by Saki?In “The Open Window,” the situational irony is that Mr. Nuttel is supposed to heal in the peaceful countryside, but the encounter with Vera makes him feel even more terrified, to the point where he flees the house in anguish.

Mental illness is a real thing that people can’t control without support and its something that needs to be addressed. If not dealt with, internal problems can result in irrational and dangerous behavior. Illnesses like schizophrenia, dissociative identity disorder, and other disorders/illnesses related to hallucinations, either auditory or visual can be dangerous for numerous reasons. Even disorders/illnesses considered lesser, or more common, like depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, and ocd can be dangerous if they are left untalked about. Lack of support can lead to death and crime, without proper help, people might harm others or themselves. You shouldn't have to pay money to deal with something you cant control. Mental help needs to be available for those who aren’t capable of paying for the help they need themselves. Some mental illnesses and disabilities can cause people to struggle financially, and can even lead to homelessness. People need support as early as possible so they can hopefully lead a comfortable life. But without help, mentally challenged members of society might struggle through life.

Answer:
When I saw Gatz, John Collin's eight-hour interpretation of The Great Gatsby, I noticed that Fitzgerald changes the color of Daisy's hair every time he describes it. It is "like a dash of blue paint", "yellowy" like her daughters, and then "dark, shining". Perhaps Fitzgerald believed that Daisy, a character so transient that her love fluctuates from one man to another within a page, was too contradictory, too whimsical to retain a fixed appearance. For Gatsby, she is a dream, an ideal guaranteed to disappoint and as our view of her changes so does her hair. It is small details, a single word that changes the meaning of a passage, which make me love English Literature. In An Irish Airman Foresees His Death Yeats writes "I know that I shall meet my fate somewhere among the clouds above" and then later "a lonely impulse of delight drove to this tumult in the clouds". The pilot, who had been looking up at the clouds that are "above" him, is suddenly "in" them and we get a powerful sense of his ascent with only the use of two prepositions.
Podcasts of lectures given by Helen Vendler on poems such as Sailing to Byzantium and Among School Children inspired my interest in Yeats but the Romanticism that was so influential in his earlier work also fascinates me. In She Walks in Beauty Byron describes the light that "one ray the less" would have destroyed the grace that effuses both the trees and the face in his poem. I love the idea that the woman is made beautiful by light - that nature has the power to "mellow" a face or "solemnize" the mind as Shelley writes in Frankenstein. I also became interested in the lives of the Romantics after watching the plays Bloody Poetry, Mary Shelley, and the film Bright Star.
It was through Bright Star that I discovered my favorite poem Ode To A Nightingale - the sense of "drowsy numbness" allows us "to dissolve", like the narrator, and travel "through verdurous glooms and winding mossy ways" until we are "upon the midnight" with the nightingale. The same sense of "dreamy divagation" is present in The Moose by Elizabeth Bishop and in both cases after being lulled by the gentle progression of the poem we are quickly awakened: Bishop "stops with a jolt" and Keats asks "do I wake or sleep?" I am looking forward to comparing literature in this way on a university course.
Attending my school's feminist society has inspired me to question the portrayals of women in literature. King Lear blames his wife for the wickedness of his daughters, Austen's Lizzy flaunts convention so successfully that she attracts a millionaire and marries him, Bella is referred to as "the lovely woman" throughout Our Mutual Friend, and Sonya is dismissed as a "sterile flower" when Nikolai abandons her in War and Peace. I am currently reading Middlemarch, which with Eliot's realistic heroines and flawed male characters, seems indicative of a radical change in the way in which women were being viewed both in literature and outside of it.
I have been strengthening my analytical skills with the creation of a blog in which I review the books I have recently read, such as Catch 22, A Picture of Dorian Grey, and The View from Castle Rock. This was especially beneficial when participating in an exhibition at the British Museum. I was part of a project in which we were asked to respond, through descriptions and sketches, to the construction of a new northwest wing of the gallery. I am interested in combining English and Art further and so would like to spend a year doing an art foundation before returning to academic study. Volunteering in the SEN department of my school has also had a profound effect on the way I view English Literature; many of the teenagers I work with find reading challenging and often struggle to express their opinions. By reading and discussing novels with them I realize that I am only just beginning to appreciate English Literature and am excited about expanding my knowledge on a university course.

Read the passage from Eleanor Roosevelt’s speech on the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Likewise, my government has made it clear in the course of the development of the Declaration that it does not consider that the economic and social and cultural rights stated in the Declaration imply an obligation on governments to assure the enjoyment of these rights by direct governmental action. This was made quite clear in the Human Rights Commission text of article 23 which served as a so–called "umbrella" article to the articles on economic and social rights. We consider that the principle has not been affected by the fact that this article no longer contains a reference to the articles which follow it. This in no way affects our whole–hearted support for the basic principles of economic, social, and cultural rights set forth in these articles.
In giving our approval to the Declaration today it is of primary importance that we keep clearly in mind the basic character of the document. It is not a treaty; it is not an international agreement. It is not and does not purport to be a statement of law or of legal obligation. It is a Declaration of basic principles of human rights and freedoms, to be stamped with the approval of the General Assembly by formal vote of its members, and to serve as a common standard of achievement for all peoples of all nations.
Which particular group in the General Assembly audience is Roosevelt MOST LIKELY targeting in this passage?
A. those who think that the UDHR would be a coercive document
B. those who support making the UDHR a legal obligation
C. those who still do not support human rights for everyone
D. those who are in agreement with Roosevelt and her government

Write an informative essay in which you explain your vision of a utopia. Describe three aspects of your utopia using supporting details. What is the topic of the essay? What is the purpose of the essay?
Answer:
My topic of the essay = Utopia as an imperfect world
Purpose = to depict the actual reality of world
Explanation:
In an ideal universe, my utopia does not arise; the explanation for this is because I assume that there's no such phenomenon as a perfect environment. There are peaceful environments, and there are harmonious worlds, but not a complete universe. If this is such a flawless universe, there would be no need, as there is today, for change and discoveries. Content is the individuals who occupy my universe.
All their desires are fulfilled by them, and they fulfil the expectations of their culture. All is functioning. It should be evident the requirement for someone always to function. And they exile someone who would not function for the sake of their culture.
Answer:
What is the topic of the essay?
✔ my vision of the perfect society
What is the purpose of the essay?
✔ to inform readers of my idea of a utopia
