O It was written by a biologist named Rachel Carson who grew up in Pennsylvania and attended

Answers

Answer:

C. It was written to prove that all pesticides were potentially harmful to the environment and  should be banned from widespread use.

Through the medium of this book, carson sternly abominates the chemical industry that blinded it's customers eyes towards the ill-effect of using pesticides and chemicals on crops.

So, the statement that explains the historical context for the book is that it was written to prove that chemicals and pesticides are harmful to environment and should be banned world wide.

Therefore, option C is correct.

My dear uncle,

It is with extreme understanding and caution that I have decided to write to you despite the circumstances. But I request that you please read through the letter.

I know it was a shock and even painful for you. But there is no good in punishing her after all, it's already past. So, we can only think of what is to be done in the present. And I hope you help my cousin feel better.

Anyway, you are the family that she would expect the most care and love from. So, there is no point in getting angry with her. Instead, be patient with her and be there for her. Be her support system when everyone will be criticizing her. If you help her and support her at these times, she will also learn firsthand about being a parent, and will be a good life lesson for her.

This is you helping raise another human being, so the baby must know love and care, instead of being greeted by a torn family. Moreover, peace is better than anything else for a family.

But if you threaten and throw her out of the house, not only will she face humiliation from others but will also be detrimental for the baby and her. She will be devastated, not having any support especially from the family she most expects understanding and love from. What's done is done and there is nothing we can do to turn it back. But what we can do is to accept it and move on, to make it a better and peaceful world for the baby and mother to grow up in.

So, uncle, I would like to request you to please rethink your rash decision and see things from her perspective. And I hope she will learn a good lesson from your actions and that everything will have a positive outcome.

I will visit you as soon as I can. So, till then, take good care of each other and be considerate of one another.

With lots of love and care,

Brianna.

Which of the following statements about narratives is true? (5 points) 0 Anarrative describes events in sequence. Anarrative has characters and setting but no conflict. A narrative is a fictional account of something that has happened. A narrative must be presented in written form. ​

Answers

Answer:

A narrative describes events in sequence.

Explanation:

A "narrative" is both written and oral account of a person's experience or fictitious happenings and the like. It follows a specific sequence of events that are related to each other. It is also known as "storytelling." This makes choice A correct.

A narrative also tells a conflict of a story, so this makes the 2nd choice incorrect. It is not only about fictional accounts. It may also be related to true happenings in one's life, so this makes the 3rd choice incorrect. A narrative is not only presented in written form. It can also be spoken or presented by images, so this makes the last choice incorrect.

Answer: A: A narrative describes events in sequence.

Explanation:

"The Diamond Necklace” by Guy de Maupassant.

Mathilde suffered ceaselessly, feeling herself born to enjoy all delicacies and all luxuries. She was distressed at the poverty of her dwelling, at the bareness of the walls, at the shabby chairs, the ugliness of the curtains. All those things, of which another woman of her rank would never even have been conscious, tortured her and made her angry. The sight of the little Breton peasant who did her humble housework aroused in her despairing regrets and bewildering dreams. She thought of silent antechambers hung with Oriental tapestry, illumined by tall bronze candelabra, and of two great footmen in knee breeches who sleep in the big armchairs, made drowsy by the oppressive heat of the stove. She thought of long reception halls hung with ancient silk, of the dainty cabinets containing priceless curiosities and of the little coquettish perfumed reception rooms made for chatting at five o’clock with intimate friends, with men famous and sought after, whom all women envy and whose attention they all desire.

When she sat down to dinner, before the round table covered with a tablecloth in use three days, opposite her husband, who uncovered the soup tureen and declared with a delighted air, "Ah, the good soup! I don’t know anything better than that,” she thought of dainty dinners, of shining silverware, of tapestry that peopled the walls with ancient personages and with strange birds flying in the midst of a fairy forest; and she thought of delicious dishes served on marvellous plates and of the whispered gallantries to which you listen with a sphinxlike smile while you are eating the pink meat of a trout or the wings of a quail.

She had no gowns, no jewels, nothing. And she loved nothing but that. She felt made for that. She would have liked so much to please, to be envied, to be charming, to be sought after.

She had a friend, a former schoolmate at the convent, who was rich, and whom she did not like to go to see any more because she felt so sad when she came home.

But one evening her husband reached home with a triumphant air and holding a large envelope in his hand.

"There,” said he, "there is something for you.”

Explanation:

i took the quiz

There are many ways one can approach conflict. • Decisions regarding conflict are based on the importance of issues and/or relationships. • The way in which one handles conflict will directly affect the effectiveness of the conflict’s outcome.



How comfortable are you with the conflict?

Conflict Styles: How people respond to conflict.

* Avoiding--Issue and relationship both are insignificant.

• Accommodating--Relationship is more important than the issue.

• Forcing--The issue is more important than the relationship.

• Compromising--Cooperation is important (give a little, get a little).

• Collaborating--Relationship and issue are both important (takes more time)

When analyzing your conflict style in a particular situation, ask the following questions: • How is this conflict style working for you? • What are your needs, and are they being met? • What outcome could using this conflict style lead to? • Are you satisfied with the outcome of this conflict style? • Are there situations in which you change your conflict style? • Are conflict styles situational? • What would it take for you to change your conflict style? • How would using a new style affect the outcome?
