Title of short story The Golden Touch

Author  Nathaniel Hawthorne

The play takes place in the ancient Greek city of Pessinus, the capital of Phrygia. King Midas was a kind man, but he did not have very good judgement. One day, Midas was generous to Silenus, a satyr, and so Dionysus granted him one wish. Dionysus, like all Greek gods, liked to teach mortals lessons.

As i have picked the novel The Golden Touch and the Author Nathaniel Hawthorne and the play takes place in the ancient Greek city of Pessinus.

Who is King Midas?

King Midas was the kind man, but he did not have very good judgement. One day, Midas was generous to Silenus, a satyr, and so Dionysus granted him one wish. Dionysus, like all Greek gods, liked to teach mortals lessons.

Cupid develops feelings for Psyche as well. Her parents consult the oracle of Apollo because they are worried about Psyche's lack of suitors. A betrayal is the root of the myth of Cupid and Psyche's main conflict.

Psyche breaks her trust when her sisters prod her into thinking that her husband is actually an ugly monster, despite Cupid's request that she not view his godlike form as a test of her faith in him. Psyche and Cupid's is among the most stunning of all. It is a love narrative with a happy ending, in contrast to the majority of ancient legends.

Therefore, the myth has had a significant impact on modern romantic literature and even modern ideas about what love is.

Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow:

Doctor Pascal
by Emile Zola

In the heat of the glowing July afternoon, the room, with blinds carefully closed, was full of a great calm. From the three windows, through the cracks of the old wooden shutters, came only a few scattered sunbeams which, in the midst of the obscurity, made a soft brightness that bathed surrounding objects in a diffused and tender light. It was cool here in comparison with the overpowering heat that was felt outside, under the fierce rays of the sun that blazed upon the front of the house.

Standing before the press which faced the windows, Dr. Pascal was looking for a paper that he had come in search of. With doors wide open, this immense press of carved oak, adorned with strong and handsome mountings of metal, dating from the last century, displayed within its capacious depths an extraordinary collection of papers and manuscripts of all sorts, piled up in confusion and filling every shelf to overflowing. For more than thirty years the doctor had thrown into it every page he wrote, from brief notes to the complete texts of his great works on heredity. Thus it was that his searches here were not always easy. He rummaged patiently among the papers, and when he at last found the one he was looking for, he smiled.

For an instant longer he remained near the bookcase, reading the note by a golden sunbeam that came to him from the middle window. He himself, in this dawnlike light, appeared, with his snow-white hair and beard, strong and vigorous; although he was near sixty, his color was so fresh, his features were so finely cut, his eyes were still so clear, and he had so youthful an air that one might have taken him, in his close-fitting, maroon velvet jacket, for a young man with powdered hair.

Explanation: Middle school is a time students first begin to figure out who they are, to begin to have more of a say in the direction of their lives.  Interests change and begin to develop.  Offering physical outlets in the form of organized sports at a middle school level helps students form new friendships, develop confidences that haven't begun to emerge and navigate competition and conflict in settings that are for the first time, away from watchful parental eyes.  Some of these same students will begin to hone physical skills that will lead to championship games and records building pride in community and connections in the community. These same students may begin to form attachments and feelings for their home towns that they will nurture as financially successful adults; helping fund programs in these same communities or volunteering in them as adults.  Competitive and organized sports can lead to educational opportunities some students could simply not afford, what better idea than to help these students nurture talent that will grow into opportunity for them.

Answer:

Imagine kim taehyung picking up weeds in your back yard, or kim jisoo in your kitchen learning to cook from you. A couple of years ago it might have been unthinkable, but not anymore. Welcome to the decade of reality television, a place where fiction meets reality. A place where you can share a common platform with celebrities. Reality television cuts everyone down to size. That is the beauty of it.

Candid Camera was one of the very first reality shows to be aired on television. It captured the candid reactions of people to humorous tricks and pranks. The novelty has not worn off. Ordinary people captured in real-life situations seem to still keep the audiences amused. Drama still rules with housewives but reality TV shows appeal to everybody- the young and the old regardless of gender.

There are a host of reality shows on television. Talent hunts, celebrity shows, quiz shows, game shows, documentary shows, makeover shows, there is no end to it. No matter which channel you watch, there will be a reality show to see. Reality shows are for peep-toms and almost each of us nurtures one within ourselves which is why we get kicks out of watching ordinary people or celebrities react in real-life situations.

The thrill of watching unedited action is what keeps everyone glued to the screen. Shows like Indian Idol which turned the boys next door to celebrity singers really caught the audience’s imagination especially as they were able to somehow affect the outcome of the show by means of public voting. It just kept them going back for more. Whether it was Blackpink's "Blackpink house" or BTS's "Run BTS" all have been watched with enthusiasm. Newer concepts are being explored in reality television and soaps are going to have to really fight hard to stay on prime time. Reality television is here to stay.

A noun is a word used to refer to a person, place, or thing (ex. apple, woman, Walmart), and a verb is a word used to refer to an action (ex. jump, dance, sing)! So, since Alina is giving a little girl a toffee, which is an action, it'd be a verb.
