An old man lived in the village. He was one of the most unfortunate people in the world. The whole village was tired of him; he was always gloomy, he constantly complained and was always in a bad mood.
The longer he lived, the more bile he was becoming and the more poisonous were his words. People avoided him, because his misfortune became contagious. It was even unnatural and insulting to be happy next to him.
He created the feeling of unhappiness in others.
But one day, when he turned eighty years old, an incredible thing happened. Instantly everyone started hearing the rumour: The whole village gathered together. The old man was asked:
Villager: What happened to you?
“Nothing special. Eighty years I’ve been chasing happiness, and it was useless. And then I decided to live without happiness and just enjoy life. That’s why I’m happy now.” – An Old Man
Moral of the story:
Don’t chase happiness. Enjoy your life.

100POINTS! PLEASE HELP! How does the Argumentative Speech compare with the Demonstrative/How-to speech? In what ways are they similar? In what ways do they differ?
Some differences between demonstrative and argumentative speeches is that a demonstrative speech is when you show or demonstrate to someone how to do something. While an argumentative speech aims to change your audience's view or perspective of something. A demonstrative speech is also meant to teach someone something, while an argumentative speech is meant to persuade. Argumentative essays also need to be backed up with facts and/or data. They are similar because they both lead the audience to learning something new. They inform the audience on something. Hope that helps.
You recently bought something that you have always wanted after saving for a long time
Write a letter to your friend to tell him or her about your purchase.
in your letter you should:
=say what you bought and why you wanted it so badly.
=say what you did in order to earn money to save;
=say what you learned from the experience and how your new purchase has changed
your life.
Your letter should be about 150 words long.
Answer:Hey, today was the day i finally bought what i had been saving up for. I had been helping around the house, helping others that may need helps, and even selling stuff. This was what i had to do to buy the the car i had dreamed of. I wanted a car so badly because i wanted to drive around when i could, i wanted to leave and get food at lunch and after school, i even wanted to just do a lot of joy rides. One thing i learned from buying a car is to be very careful because accidents happen all the time and theres never a chance where you end up doing something wrong such as going on a red light. That can cause accidents and bad ones. It can also get you involved with the police and court so that isn't something to look up to. So far I'm doing good with my new car! I decided to take things slow and only drive when i get the chance but I'm learning it step by step. I hope you can get what your saving for!
Explanation:I dont know if this is good sorry if it isn't.

What is a nonrestrictive clause?A nonrestrictive clause adds fresh information to a sentence. It is a proper noun or common noun and typically refers to a certain person, thing, or event. To denote that the material is additional, commas are utilized. The sentence's commas resemble parentheses.
A nonrestrictive element is used to describe a phrase whose meaning is already clear from its context. Since it is not important to understand the contents of the statement, it is separated by commas. For instance, the youngsters needed sturdy shoes, which were expensive. This phrase also tells us how expensive the shoes were.
A nonrestrictive clause can be removed without changing the meaning. For restricted clauses, there is no need for punctuation; commas are often used instead.
Thus, option C is correct.

Sojourner Truth says to her audience, “And ain't I a woman? Look at me! Look at my arm!”. Which of the of the following statements BEST explains the reason that Sojourner Truth uses this technique?
A) Sojourner uses it because she is angry and is threatening them.
C) Sojourner uses it to force her audience to see she is a person and a woman.
D) Sojourner uses it to show the women in the audience that domestic violence is wrong.
Answer:
D) Sojourner uses it to show the women in the audience that domestic violence is wrong.
Explanation:
On May 29, 1851, Sojourner Truth, an abolitionist, and former slave, gave one of history’s most memorable speeches on the intersection between women’s suffrage and black rights. Speaking to the Ohio Women’s Convention, Truth used her identity to point out the ways in which both movements were failing black women. Over and over, according to historical transcripts, she demanded, “Ain’t I a woman?”
It’s a question that continues to resonate with black women today—167 years later.
Born into slavery as Isabella Bomfree in 1797, Truth was sold four times before she finally fled her captor in New York state and found refuge with a nearby abolitionist family, who bought her freedom. Once she moved to New York City in 1828, Truth became a powerful preacher and campaigned on the issues of women’s suffrage and black rights. She renamed herself Sojourner Truth in 1843, declaring that God had called on her to preach the truth.
It was an aptly chosen name, as illustrated by her speech, in which she at once refutes the prevailing myth that women are weaker than men while challenging social definitions of womanhood—which relies upon ideas about white women’s femininity and purity. Truth says:
That man over there says that women need to be helped into carriages, and lifted over ditches, and to have the best place everywhere. Nobody ever helps me into carriages, or over mud-puddles, or gives me any best place! And ain’t I a woman? Look at me! Look at my arm! I have plowed and planted and gathered into barns, and no man could head me!
Truth criticizes her feminist contemporaries for focusing on the lived experiences of white women. Then she takes aim at the abolitionist movement for solely focusing on the rights of black men:
Then that little man in black there, he says women can’t have as many rights as men, ‘ cause Christ wasn’t a woman! Where did your Christ come from? Where did your Christ come from? From God and a woman! The man had nothing to do with Him.
