Misfortune Never Comes Alone
Life is a mixture of bad days and good days. Each one of us experiences the joys of good days and anguish of bad days. I also went through the ordeals of a bad day.
It was one of those bad days today when many bad things happen together. As I got up my mother told me there had been no power supply since early morning. She also told me that there was no water in the water tank. So I had to pump water and bring it in buckets to the washrooms for ablutions and washing up.
Then as the mother was cooking dinner the cylinder ran out. Thank God there was a filled cylinder available with the grandmother. It was just 10:00 a.m. when the inverter battery also ran out. It happened to be one of the hottest days with summer solstice just a week away. All of us had no option but for the resuming of power supply. Then one of the neighbours told us the power supply would resume in the evening as the Electricity Department was repairing the wires. At 3 p.m. all of us missed the power supply the most because that day Champions Trophy semi-final cricket match between India and Bangla Desh was to be played.
We forgot all our pain we had faced that day when the power supply resumed. However, that joy was short lived. We had hardly finished our dinner when the power supply was disrupted again. The inverter did not work. We again had no option but to wait for the resumption of the power.
I really had an extremely bad day during my summer vacation. I was reminded of the maxim: ‘Misfortune never comes alone!’

write the summery of Antony and Cleopatra.
Answer:
A summary of Shakespeare's Antony & Cleopatra - a tragedy of love and duty.
Explanation:
Antony & Cleopatra written around 1606 is one of Shakespeare’s great historical love stories. Antony is captivated by Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt. Gossip and scandal leads to plots of murder and battles.
Mark Antony, Octavius Caesar and Lepidus, having defeated Julius Caesar's assassins at Philippi, now rule the Roman Empire as a triumvirate.
While in Alexandria however, the ageing Antony has become captivated by Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt (and mother to Julius Caesar's illegitimate son, Caesarion). The gossip and scandal this is creating both amongst Romans in Alexandria and at home in Rome gives rise to dissention between Octavius and Antony, whose behaviour is felt to be debauched and 'un-Roman'.
At the same time as the power of the triumvirate is being challenged by a dissatisfied senator, Pompey, Antony hears news from Rome that his wife, Fulvia, is dead. These two issues together force Antony to return to Rome and take up his responsibilities as a triumvir again.
Once back in Rome, Antony seems less controlled by his fascination for Cleopatra and, in an attempt to strengthen the triumvirate and cement his political alliance with Octavius following a quarrel, he agrees to marry Octavius's sister, Octavia. This news drives Cleopatra into a jealous rage.
Antony and Cleopatra takes place at a time of serious political turmoil and civil strife, with leaders rising and falling, as Fulvia, Pompey, Lepidus, Octavius, Antony, and Cleopatra all jostle for political power. Thus, ordinary people, advisors, soldiers, and attendants are forced to decide who to follow and be loyal to. The leaders, meanwhile, must rely on the loyalty of their followers. It is when Antony's soldiers effectively desert that… read analysis of Honor, Loyalty, and Betrayal

Read the excerpt from Act II, scene vi of Romeo and Juliet.
Friar Laurence: These violent delights have violent ends,
And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
Which, as they kiss consume: the sweetest honey
Is loathsome in his own deliciousness
And in the taste confounds the appetite:
Therefore love moderately; long love doth so;
Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.
The purpose of the oxymoron and paradox used in this excerpt is to
describe what it feels like to love.
emphasize a point about love.
provide the definition of love.
entertain using visions of love.
Answer:
Option B, emphasize a point about love
Explanation:
In the given lines the author is trying to warn Romeo that if the intensity of love between them is violent, then such violent drift also lead to violent ends. Such extreme emotions about the kind of pleasure often end to disaster. The author further adds that even the taste of honey gets sickly even when it is sweet and hence it is essential for him to go right off it. Hence it is essential to love moderately
Hence, option B is correct

B

Which aspect of Editha's character does the following excerpt from William Dean Howells's short story "Editha" reveal?
"That ignoble peace! It was no peace at all, with that crime and shame at our very gates." She was conscious of parroting the current phrases of the newspapers, but it was no time to pick and choose her words. She must sacrifice anything to the high ideal she had for him, and after a good deal of rapid argument she ended with the climax: "But now it doesn't matter about the how or why. Since the war has come, all that is gone. There are no two sides, anymore. There is nothing now but our country."
Answer:
A) Empty idealism .
Explanation:
William Dean Howell's short story "Editha," tells the story of the titled character and how her glorious perception of the war led her fiancé to join the war. And because of her romanticized perception of the war led to the death of the fiancé.
In the given passage from the story, the narrator reveals how Editha had changed from her "glorified" belief of the war. She had initially romanticized the war but after her fiancé had been killed, she now believes that the sacrifice was needed, "parroting the current phrases of the newspapers." Her opinions and beliefs change with the change in narration or reports of the media. This shows her empty idealistic beliefs in the war.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.

A. empty idealism

The Giver chapter 21 and 23 summary
Answer:
chapter 21
Jonas notices that his memories are fading a bit, which is what he and The Giver had expected: as he moves further and further away from the community, the memories should be released to the citizens and thus fade from his mind. As the days go on, the planes become less and less frequent. Finally, they stop altogether.
chapter 23
One day, it snows, leaving Jonas and Gabriel cold, hungry, and exhausted. Jonas has just a few memories left from The Giver, but he finds one of sunshine and transmits it to Gabriel. When the memory of sunshine is gone, he focuses on his memories of his friends, family, and The Giver.

Why can't your research report include just opinions?
A. Opinions are not appropriate for school reports.
B. A research report containing only your opinions will not be long enough.
C. Opinions usually not convincing without reasons and evidence.
D. Most people are easily offended by other people's opinions.
Answer:
C. Opinions usually are not convincing without reasons or evidence.
Explanation:
I don't really know the context to this question but I would assume the answer is C because research reports are very heavily focused on exactly what it's called; research. A research report is usually answering a question or proving your point to an argument so your opinion would be on which side you would be taking for example here is a research question: should schools allow phone usage in school?
Your opinion would be either yes or no but what makes it a research report is the amount of evidence you will use in your body paragraphs to support the side you are opinionated towards.

I need help pls been stuck on this for days need help with claim, edvince rason
I answer Claim: The hare that I expect to find in the first after the extended winter would be the brown hare.
Evidence: so we scientists know this because they are the same animal, but they both live in different climate if you want to see a brown hare you can see them in the spring and summertime, but if you want to see snow hare you’ll usually check in places that are cold.
Answer:
Claim: You would expect to find the white hare after the extended winter
Evidence: In the picture it shows the white hare covered in snow. The picture also has a key word at the bottom: "usually long" meaning, the winter must've lasted much longer than expected, resulting in the brown hair dying from the cold weather.
Reasoning: The white hare lives in the snow, meaning it has already adapted and is used to the cold weather. While the brown hare is used to a warm environment. Therefore, if the winter is extended the brown hare is most likely not to have a chance of surviving in the cold weather conditions.
