Write two of your own possible interpretations of The Old Man and the Sea. You will choose one of these or another topic on which to write an essay.
The" Old Man and the Sea" tells the tale of Santiago, an elderly fisherman who is through an 84-day stretch during which he hasn't managed to catch a single fish. It is a tale of fortitude and tenacity.
What is your interpretation of the story?
In an effort to catch a big fish, Santiago makes the decision to cast his line farther than the other fishermen. His strategy succeeds, and he spends three days attempting to land an 18-foot marlin. He does succeed in catching it, but as he travels back to his house, sharks begin to chip away at the marlin's flesh until there are just bones left. Santiago ultimately returns with nothing more than the marlin's skeleton. The old man is saddened by this, but the town is impressed when they see the huge skeleton.
The tale demonstrates that it's possible to be the outcast and accomplish great things. Additionally, it demonstrates that your own self-worth should take precedence over other people's perceptions.

Q.No.4) Despite sufferings and trauma, the year 2020 has also taught many things to all of us. What are the things you have learned during those hard times? Write your experience in a paragraph. 5
I mean, I might not be able to display what you learned, but I'll list some of the things the community has learned throughout the past year.
-Be cautious, and wash your hands. Some viruses are deadly.
-We should never take things for granted. People don't usually sanitize and, they take the environment for granted, not knowing the consequences.
-Despite the difficulty of online learning, you are not alone because everyone is online too.
-Staying sanitized keeps you away from sickness.
Paragraph:
Despite suffering and trauma, the year 2020 has also taught many things to all of us. Several lessons that I learned from the virus and the community. The first thing I have learned was to be cautious and sanitary because we never know when it all might come to a disaster. People's lives might end because they weren't sanitary. Despite the difficulty, we are all in this together. Everyone is struggling with online learning, too. And finally, staying sanitized keeps you away from sickness. Ever since others were aware of germs, I don't think we have gotten sick or caught a cold this year.

Explanation:
sympathy letter for an accident is written to express your grief and condolences for one who has met with an accident. This kind of letter is written by relatives or friends whenever an accident has taken place. The sympathy Letter must be written as soon as the writer comes across news of the accident.

''The last time she was here, did not two of my cows fall ill and one of them die?'' What is the speaker's attitude towards the girl he is talking about in this sentence above?
Answer:
cautious
Explanation:
In the sentence provided the speaker's attitude seems to be cautious. Mainly because the last time the individual was at his house he lost a cow and probably a lot of money from the rest of the cows becoming ill. Therefore, he associates the individual's presence with a bad omen and is worried that since the individual showed up again, then more bad things will happen to him, his business, or those he loves. This is so because he connects the the individual's presence with what happens to his cows.

Answer: D. standard English
Explanation:
Standard English is used in formal settings, such as is literature like the excerpt presented in this question, as opposed to non-standard English which is used in informal settings, with family and friends.
Although Standard English began as a regional dialect that emerged in the southeast of England, is now considered the official form to be used in writing, in the education system, court texts, the church, newspapers, and any official writing, and it can be used with different regional accents or without any regional diction.
We know that the excerpt is no using a southern dialect because there are no words like "ain’t" and "y’all", which are common for that dialect.

Even though there is freedom of the press, government agencies can decide that information is classified. What does this mean and under what circumstances can the government use this to deny the press access to information?
Answer:
Sorry for replying late, but here it goes...
The government can restrict certain information from the public as it could possibly lead to conflicts with society, other countries/nations along with the possibility of changing the viewpoint of themselves with society. Further leading the possible act of riots or rebellions if certain information was leaked. People can't always get to see what the government does, people that work there are specialized in what they do and have to do their job right. If everyday citizens want to know what's going on with the government and what they aren't providing, they need to work there, and even on their journey to acquire a job there the government and the training will change their viewpoints on why they cannot share information to the public.

Which statement is the best evaluation of the research question? It is too biased; this research question contains an opinion and cannot be answered through research. It is clear and complex; this research question has a single focus that can be researched and discussed. It is too broad; this research question is unfocused and would be too difficult to discuss in a single research essay. It is too narrow; this research question is limited to high school students, which is not a large enough group to research.
I looked this question up and found the complete version online. The research question is:
"Why do high school students no spend enough time doing physical activity every day?"
Answer:
The statement which is the best evaluation of the research question is:
A. It is too biased; this research question contains an opinion and cannot be answered through research.
Explanation:
The author of the research question states an opinion when he/she says that high school students do not spend enough time doing physical activity. We do not know if this is true, if it is a fact. Had the author stated the question is a different manner, perhaps even providing some data, then it may have had some factual validity. For example: "A new study shows that 95% of high school students only exercise once a week. What are the reasons behind that number?" That question would not be based on an opinion, but on a fact. It would be easier to come up with a research - an interview, for instance - that would actually find out the reasons why that happens.
