Answer:
Do kools over miss their old nests?
Explanation:
The word, "Misgiving," means a feeling of doubt or apprehension about something. When the young girl observed the Asian Koels which are a breed of birds, she wondered if they ever missed their old nests.
This was a feeling of doubt that can be related to her own situation. Just like the Asian Koels that migrated from one end to another, the young girl might have reasoned that perhaps the Koels did miss their old nests just as she missed her former homes. Thus, she expressed her apprehension or doubt about the consequences of moving from one part of the world to another.

Considering sacrificing the personal wishes for the sake of love the ultimate manifestation of true love is typical for the majority of writers, poets, and painters exploring the romantic themes. However, Paulo Coelho has managed to amaze the readers with a wholly new approach to exploring the nature of love and describing its role in the person’s life in his famous novel The Alchemist. Coelho demonstrates that while the love demanding the sacrifice of one’s dream is not true, the genuine love serves as a stimulus for living out the Personal Legend and achieving the happiness
The first lesson the reader learns about love while reading The Alchemist is that the wrong understanding of this feeling often becomes an obstacle on the way to the person’s pursuit of self-realization. The author shows that untrue love can stop the person from living the life full of meaning, which is essential for discovering the purpose of one’s. This step is crucial for the person’s ability to move to the next level of self-development. However, the author shows that the problem is related to people’s perception of love, not the feeling itself.
Coelho demonstrates that true love cannot prevent the person from realizing his/her dreams through the words of the alchemist: “You must understand that love never keeps a man from pursuing his destiny. If he abandons that pursuit, it’s because it wasn’t true love… the love that speaks the Language of the World” (Coelho 67). The main protagonist feels the temptation to leave his Personal Legend because of the feeling of affection towards a woman two times: after meeting the merchant’s daughter and after he falls in love with Fatima.
Though Santiago is not bounded with the merchant’s daughter by serious feelings, after meeting her he feels the desire to lead a purposeless life: “He recognized that he was feeling something he had never experienced before: the desire to live in one place forever” (Coelho 3). After meeting Fatima, the described desire appears to dominate Santiago’s plans one more time with even bigger power. Falling in love with Fatima motivates him to stay in the oasis and refuse from living his dream.
The Alchemist tells the boy that such decision will lead to the unhappiness of both Santiago and Fatima as he will regret refusing from a dream, and Fatima will feel the guilt for forcing him to do it. In such way, Coelho teaches the reader that refusing from a dream for the sake of love is the severely wrongful act. Though Santiago manages to overcome the temptation to leave his dream because of the affection and love towards a woman, the reader gets a clear impression that sacrificing one’s dream for love can be an obstacle on the way to one’s happiness and purposeful life.
Such position is unique in regard to world literature, as most writers describe the sacrifice of one’s dreams and wishes for the sake of love as the highest manifestation of true love. Coelho, on the contrary, reveals that such sacrifice serves as a proof of the untrue love, which can ruin the person’s happiness. Fatima also demonstrates the untraditional understanding of love.
While most female protagonists described in the literature strive for making their beloved ones stay with them, Fatima encourages Santiago to leave her and continue his trip: “That’s why I want you to continue toward your goal. If you have to wait until the war is over, then wait. But if you have to go before then, go on in pursuit of your dream” (Coelho 53). Such approach to true love opposes the traditional beliefs and changes the explanation of its nature.

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer
by Mark Twain (excerpt)
The old lady whirled round, and snatched her skirts out of danger. The lad fled on the instant, scrambled up the high board-fence, and disappeared over it.
His aunt Polly stood surprised a moment, and then broke into a gentle laugh.
"Hang the boy, can't I never learn anything? Ain't he played me tricks enough like that for me to be looking out for him by this time? But old fools is the biggest fools there is. Can't learn an old dog new tricks, as the saying is. But my goodness, he never plays them alike, two days, and how is a body to know what's coming? He 'pears to know just how long he can torment me before I get my dander up, and he knows if he can make out to put me off for a minute or make me laugh, it's all down again and I can't hit him a lick. I ain't doing my duty by that boy, and that's the Lord's truth, goodness knows. Spare the rod and spile the child, as the Good Book says. I'm a laying up sin and suffering for us both, I know. He's full of the Old Scratch, but laws-a-me! he's my own dead sister's boy, poor thing, and I ain't got the heart to lash him, somehow. Every time I let him off, my conscience does hurt me so, and every time I hit him my old heart most breaks. Well-a-well, man that is born of woman is of few days and full of trouble, as the Scripture says, and I reckon it's so. He'll play hookey this evening, and I'll just be obleeged to make him work, to-morrow, to punish him. It's mighty hard to make him work Saturdays, when all the boys is having holiday, but he hates work more than he hates anything else, and I've GOT to do some of my duty by him, or I'll be the ruination of the child."

Answer: ghost towns capture what places used to be like
Explanation:
The sentence "They are faded snapshots of a lost time and place" suggests that ghost towns capture what places used to be like.
A lost time and place simply means something happened in the past which isn't anymore. The option that ghost towns are featured in many photographs or look similar to old photographs are wrong.

Explanation:
In the above sample response, the writer discussed the rhetorical appeals applied by the Queen in her speech as well as the purpose of each speech. The respondent did not go into details about the differences between the speeches.
The purpose of the first speech was to encourage the troops. The rhetorical appeals used were pathos (because she appeals to their emotions) and ethos (because she appeals to their acknowledgement of her office/authority). The purpose of the second speech was to address the lawmakers' request and she uses the rhetorical appeal, logos (because she applied logic in addressing them).

Hi. You did not submit the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I will try and help as best I can.
To answer this question you will need to read all the text related to it. After doing this reading, you will then identify the theme of the text, which is the message, the lesson which the text wants to convey to the reader. The devices used in the text must be related to this theme, highlighting it and leaving it more profound and impactful.
In relation to artifices, the author will use irony when presenting a situation different from what was expected, a situation that is unexpected for the characters, but known by the reader, or even a situation that intends to criticize something in a jocular way. Symbolism will be presented in a text when the author seeks to convey meaning through objects and elements presented in the story. The paradox will be presented when the author presents two elements that contradict each other in the same element of the story.
The plot of a story corresponds to the whole story and the way it was organized. Character characterization can be direct (when the character's characteristics are presented directly by the narrator) or indirect (when the character's characteristics are presented in an indirect way, by the character's actions or behaviors). The narration style can be omniscient (when the narrator knows all the elements, situations, story events and thoughts of all the characters) or limited (when the narrator only knows some elements related to a character and the events that that character participates). The narration can also be in first person (when the narrator is a character in the story) or in third person (when the narrator is not a character, but an observer of the story).

Both Goldsmith and Swift condemned the evils of their age, but they often attacked different vices and used different approaches in doing so.
Instructions:
Write an essay of at least 900 words comparing (finding similarities) or contrasting (finding differences in) their approach to social criticism.
1. Begin your paper with one statement that summarizes how these two authors are being compared or contrasted (a thesis statement).
2.Follow this introduction with your supporting argument made up of reasons and examples to make the comparison or contrast clear.
3.Before you begin to write your own paper, write an outline using one of the following methods of organization:
Arrange your argument by points of comparison (or contrast).

Explanation:
Although Jonathan Swift and Oliver Goldsmith have two distinct writing styles, their passion for literature, their desire for a better world, and the underlying topic of their work are all strikingly similar. The lives of these two famous authors also resemble each other’s, starting in poverty, living through life’s hardships, and ending in success. Swift and Goldsmith were two of the most famous authors of the 18th century. I believe if Swift and Goldsmith had met, they would have made great friends. For the reason that, along with their passions, their lives were bursting with challenges. Both were born in poverty and underwent numerous challenges, including the death of loved ones and the loss of purpose in life. In addition They criticized the social injustices that was going on during the 18th century in Ireland by doing what they loved the most, writing. Swift and Goldsmith wrote their stories as a mockery to the arrogance, hypocrisy, and falsehood of the upper classes. Through their bold and amusing tales, we are entertained with the obvious message of injustice and corruption decorated in a satire. Through their love of literature, Swift and Goldsmith, tried to better their society by displaying their discontent through countless satires. For both Jonathan Swift and Oliver Goldsmith, their love of literature began at a young age; however, their poverty-stricken lives prevented them from pursuing their dreams. Nevertheless, these dreams manifested into reality, and soon Swift and Goldsmith took jobs writing for the Tory. Jonathan Swift and Oliver Goldsmith had similar ideas, and because of this, took on similar writing jobs. Their love of literature persuaded each to join a Literary Club. Throughout the years, these two poets underwent great trials; however, their passion for literature never. It was their greatest weapon against injustice, and this fact remains true today. A person’s tongue is sharper than any double-edged sword. It can start a war, just as easily as it can prevent one. With Jonathan Swift’s and Oliver Goldsmith’s similar ideas, they tried to portray the injustice and corruption of the upper classes through satire poetry. Their desire in life was to ease their own poverty and to instruct and please the reading public through their literary masterpieces. Jonathan Swift and Oliver Goldsmith had a similar vision for the future: a world without poverty, where justice was prevalent, and the masses were educated. This ideal world cannot be accomplished through government alone; the moral of the people has to change as well. Swift and Goldsmith both recognized this problem, therefore they wrote to the people, not the upper classmen that they distrusted. Both Jonathan Swift and Oliver Goldsmith skillfully portrayed their distrust for the wealthy members of Parliament and the upper class, while displaying their desires for a better world,
The nickname "Dean Swift" originates from Jonathan Swift, an Anglo-Irish satirist, playwright, essayist, political pamphleteer, poet, and Anglican cleric who was appointed Dean of St. Patrick's Cathedral in Dublin. Anglo-Irish novelist, playwright, dramatist, and poet was Oliver Goldsmith.
What is the comparison between the two?Oliver Goldsmith and Jonathan Swift each have distinctive writing styles, but their shared love of books, hope for a better world, and central themes are quite similar. One of the most well-known writers of the 18th century was Swift, and another was Goldsmith.
They used their greatest passion, writing, to denounce the societal injustices occurring in Ireland throughout the 18th century. The haughtiness, hypocrisy, and dishonesty of the higher classes were intended as targets in Swift and Goldsmith's stories.
Swift and Goldsmith strove to improve their society through their love of writing by frequently satirizing it and expressing their unhappiness. Both Jonathan Swift and Oliver Goldsmith imagined a world without poverty, ruled by justice, and attended by the common people.

Reading and Paraphrasing Activity 1:
Ballistic Signatures and how they can be used to solve a crime:
1.When lands and grooves grab and spin a projectile, or bullet, moving down the barrel of a firearm, they also create cuts in the projectile. These cuts leave behind distinctive markings that are at the heart of firearms comparisons. Lands, or ridges, refer to the high parts made when the factory makes cuts into the barrel of a firearm to make grooves, the low parts. These lands and grooves create markings known as striations on the projectile. Striations are straight and parallel to the longitudinal axis of the projectile. One can see that striations are more prevalent on soft lead bullets than they are on metal or jacketed bullets.
1.My summary of the above paragraph:
2.Silencers are gadgets that are designed to suppress or muffle the report of a gunshot. These can include a shirt wrapped around the barrel to a high-tech sound-absorbing screw-on attachment. Such attachments can also leave behind distinctive markings on projectiles, but these markings are not predictable. If a silencer does leave distinctive impressions on the projectile but is not available for examination by the time the forensic firearms examiner test-fires the gun, these impressions may hinder the scientist’s attempt to find a match between the bullet and the gun from which it was fired.
2. My summary of the above paragraph:
Silencers are something you put on gun so you can hide the sound of you firing it. Some people use a shirt around the barrel and some people attach a high tech screw on attachment.
3. In addition to the presence of lands, grooves, striations, and twists, each rifled barrel has minute qualities that set it apart from all others. A rifled gun barrel is the result when the manufacturer carves spiral grooves into the parietal surface of the barrel in order to make projectiles spin as they are forced down the barrel. This spinning action allows the bullet to stabilize itself during flight. This is the same physics concept with footballs as the quarterback passes the spinning ball to the receiver waiting to catch the ball down the field. For this reason, gun barrels are said to be rifled in order to promote the spinning of a bullet.
3. My summary of the above paragraph:
4. For the purposes of forensics, a rifling tool cuts through each metal gun barrel a bit differently. As subsequent barrels are carved out, the cutting or carving equipment becomes worn with repeated use. This progressive wear and tear creates rifling patterns that differ from one barrel to another. Furthermore, repeated firing also wears down and damages the lands and grooves. This action makes each barrel unique as well as each bullet that passes through it.
4. My summary of the above paragraph:
5. In a nutshell, projectiles fired from the same firearm have the same striated patterns, but bullets fired from different ones do not. The microscopic striations found on a projectile are so unique that they are indicative that the bullet had to come from a particular gun excluding all others. This singles out one gun that sets it apart from others of the same make and model.
