(My two artikels are "Food That Fuels" and "Defeating Dragons")
Did you know that kids can do great things like, save a person from a burning building or help people heat their homes with french fry oil? For example, there is a group of teens in Aniak, Alaska who are called the Dragon Slayers. They are like firefighters but they are teens. But, there is also a girl from Westerly, Rhode Island named Cassandra Lin and with the help of her classmates they make fuel for school busses. They also use that fuel to heat houses and they use french fry oil to make the fuel. They both help their community but, they just help in different ways.

“Discoveries: Mighty Mouse Bred”
U.S. scientists have bred a "Lance Armstrong" mouse. It can't pedal a bike, but it can run on a treadmill for more than six hours before pooping out.
What accounts for the mouse's amazing endurance? For one thing, its muscle cells have 10 times the usual number of mitochondria, according to the scientists, who work at Case Western Reserve University. Mitochondria are the main energy sources in a cell.
The mouse also produces less lactic acid, a byproduct of metabolism that is released in large amounts during physical exercise. If too much lactic acid builds up in the body, the excess can lead to fatigue and a burning sensation in the muscles. The mighty mouse's body is very similar to that of champion cyclist Lance Armstrong, which produces energy without releasing too much lactic acid, keeping Armstrong from tuckering out.
When put through a grueling uphill treadmill test, the mouse ran for 32 minutes, compared with 19 for regular mice. To maintain that pace, the mouse eats 60 percent more food than other mice do yet weighs half as much.
The mighty rodent is called a PEPCK-Cmus mouse after a certain enzyme that is abundant in the mouse's body. An enzyme is a protein that speeds up a chemical reaction in the body. The scientists have bred 500 PEPCK-Cmus mice, with more on the way. Female mice normally stop reproducing at 1 year of age. The PEPCK-Cmus females reproduce until they are 2½, the equivalent of an 80-year-old woman having a baby!
Why might the writer have compared the new breed of mouse to Lance Armstrong? Please cite evidence from the text.
PLS HELP plssss 500 points
Answers
Answer:
Read explanation---->
Explanation: The writer compared the mouse to Lance Armstrong for different reasons. For one, the mouse and Lance have the same type of body build. "The mighty mouse's body is very similar to that of champion cyclist Lance Armstrong..." It also goes into detail about the mouse's endurance, which is caused by the same acid in Lance Armstrong's body. "produces energy without releasing too much lactic acid, keeping Armstrong from tuckering out."

SCOTT: I had a lovely trip, Mr. Harris. My family and I went to Italy. We saw the Colosseum, the Trevi Fountain, and Vatican City. The place has such rich history and culture. And the food there was fantastic. The pizza and pasta there are so much better than what you get here.
MR. HARRIS: I’m glad you enjoyed it, Scott. Now, Jason, what about you? How did you spend the summer break?
(A shy and frail looking boy glances around nervously before turning his attention to the teacher. His clothes look old and worn. The students look at him with a bored expression.)

How does Eleanor’s mother, Rebecca, feel about the likelihood that Germany will invade Poland? Use three pieces of evidence from the passage to support your answer.
Answers
Summers in Warsaw are relatively mild: a bit humid, not too warm. That summer, 1939,
Eleanor’s family had spent all of July and August visiting her grandparents, who lived on a farm
in the country. She and her older sister Mary had spent the month hiking all around their
grandparents’ property and the surrounding farms, collecting leaves and flowers to dry and
keep in their scrapbooks. Each evening, they would carefully hang the day’s treasures up on a
nail in the loft where they slept. Their grandfather helped them label the plants with a piece of
cloth that they tied to the nail. By the end of the month, they had quite a collection—the loft
was fragrant with the smell of dried flowers and grass, and the shadows of the plants were
stiff and looked like winter.
At the end of August, they packed up their big trunk in preparation for returning to the
city. Eleanor was sitting in the kitchen helping her mother and grandmother pack sandwiches
and apples for the train trip.
“Are you sure you want to go back?” Eleanor’s grandmother asked her mother.
“What else could we do?” her mother said. She shrugged. When Eleanor’s mother
shrugged like that, it meant that Eleanor’s father had probably made the decision.
“Stay here, Rebecca. Stay with the children.”
Eleanor’s mother shook her head. “Joseph has already decided,” she said. “We’re going
to wait it out.”
Eleanor’s grandmother shook her head. “This is a bad idea,” she said.
Eleanor’s mother did not respond. They finished packing the lunches in silence.
That night in bed, Eleanor couldn’t sleep. They would have to leave the farm very early
the next morning, but Eleanor’s mind was busy—as her mother would say, it was whirring and
stirring, mostly with questions. Why would it be a bad idea to go home? Why wouldn’t her
mother want to go back? Her father was there, had been working all summer in the dental
office he owned with his brother. She poked Mary to see if she was awake, but Mary just
groaned and turned over in bed.
Eleanor stared at the wooden ceiling of the loft. For some reason, she felt scared.
Maybe it was the way her grandmother’s voice sounded. Or the strange cryptic warning she
had given her mother. At eleven years old, Eleanor knew some things about the world, but not
much. She was just beginning to get a feel for the ways people spoke and the hidden messages
in their words. Either way, Eleanor was not sure she wanted the summer to end.
The next morning, Eleanor’s mother woke them up gently. It was still dark out, and
Eleanor’s grandparents were asleep. Mary carried the basket full of food, their mother carried their trunk with a sling, and Eleanor held her little brother Alfred’s hand as they walked a mile
in the woods to the train station. On the train, all three children fell asleep. Eleanor woke up at
one point to see her mother staring out the window, her arms crossed over her chest, her
eyebrows furrowed low over her eyes.
When they reached Warsaw, their father was at the train station with Uncle Abraham.
Eleanor was excited to see her father, and she ran into his arms when he held them out for a
hug. He picked her up easily, and she felt immediately safe—all of her worries and fears from
the night before melted away as he welcomed the rest of the family and they walked back to
their home.
At the house, Mary went to her room to read and Alfred took a nap. Eleanor sat on the
floor of the front room listening to the radio behind the couch as her parents talked. Eleanor
was sure they didn’t realize she was there.
“I’m worried, Joseph,” her mother said.
“I have very good sources who say that it’s going to be fine. Hitler signed a
nonaggression pact with us… He can’t flout international law and opinion so easily.”
“Look what happened to Austria last year! And Czechoslovakia. Did you not hear about
this Eichmann person in Prague? Jews had to pay damages when their homes and businesses
were vandalized! Do you not get the news in Warsaw?”
Eleanor turned the volume of the radio down and inched closer to the back of the
couch. Maybe this is what her grandmother was worried about… This Eichmann person.
“Rebecca, please be realistic and calm. Has your mother put hysterical notions in your
head?”
“This isn’t about my mother. This is about what’s happening in Poland.” Eleanor’s
mother sounded furious. She stood abruptly and left the room.
Eleanor’s father sighed and leaned back into the couch so it creaked. He looked over the
back of the couch and saw Eleanor lying on the floor.
“You little sneak,” he said, and smiled. “Don’t listen to your mother. Poland is a civilized
country, just like any other.”

Personification is the type of figurative language in "The wind was contrary". Thus option A is correct.
What is figurative language?A word's strict or practical sense is not used while expressing oneself through the use of similes. Figurative language is frequently employed to add artistic flourish to printed either spoken words or to convey a difficult concept. It is frequently found in comparisons and sensationalism.
Even though a needle may genuinely rest on a vine, this is representation. It is endowing an object with human traits.

In my opinion, Shakespeare was undeniably a successful playwright. As discussed in Chapters 1 and 2, there is ample evidence to support this claim. Firstly, Shakespeare's works continue to be celebrated and performed worldwide, even centuries after his death. His plays have not only endured the test of time but have also become an integral part of global literary and theatrical culture. Furthermore, his ability to craft complex characters, explore universal themes, and capture the depth of human emotions is evident in his plays such as "Romeo and Juliet" and "Hamlet." These works resonate with audiences across generations, showcasing Shakespeare's profound understanding of the human condition. Lastly, the widespread influence of his plays on literature, language, and even popular culture further demonstrates his immense success as a playwright. In conclusion, based on the evidence presented, it is clear that Shakespeare's impact and enduring legacy establish him as a truly accomplished and successful playwright.
Shakespeare was the best playwriter of the time. He was extremely talented in choosing the correct words in the correct place. His ability to arrange words was extremely convincing. He used fiction to represent that reality is supremely gifted. He brought life to all the characters.
Shakespeare was not only a playwriter but was also a poet and an actor. He got lots of opportunities to earn money through the business of theatre. He got worldwide recognition through his creations in playwriting. When he was young, he worked as the weekly wager. Hence, he used to get paid at the end of the week.
