Answer: Hero in my life is my grandfather
Explanation:
There were no other information about the form of the essay except that it should be a personal story. So I wrote a personal essay with standard 500 words.
The essay:
Throughout life we know, meet and admire many people.
Still, there is always a special person that represents the hero to whom we look up to. When people mention the word “hero”, the first thing that pops into our heads is a person with a cape and superpowers, but we should be aware that not all of the heroes wear capes! Such a hero is my grandfather…
My grandfather was an infant boy who was a very sickly child.
At the age of 6, he was already hospitalized several times because of his poor health. When he had finished primary and high school, he started working as a mailman in the small town, but he was soon recruited to fight in wars. During the military training, he proved himself to be quite capable of becoming a pilot which he did. By the age of 18, he already had his flight hours!
Still, because of his health problems, he was denied further flight activities so he had to return to his little town. Without any money and job opportunities, he worked as a cleaning man in the local theatre.
His job was not only to sweep the floors but to make sure that everything is working perfectly on set, from equipment and costumes to actors and their lines. One day, the main actor of one play broke his leg while climbing the backstage and he was unable to perform.
My grandfather who remembered the entire text jumped in and started acting instead of him. The theatre decided to employ him as one of their actors since they were amazed by his undiscovered talent. Throughout his short life, he became one of the better-known theatre-actors in his little town and he earned a lot of money considering the job that he did and the time in which he had lived.
Later, he married my grandmother and he accomplished everything that he imagined. At one point he wrote his plays for the theatres and many of the plays were quite successful. When I was little, he was in the late stage of Parkinson's disease and he was unable to move anything except his left arm.
Even with such struggles, he thought me the basic principles of theatre and stage performance. He explained to me what is the purpose of living a life and how to live it. Even though he died young in his 40’ and despite his health problems, he became a hero to me because he had taught me that you can accomplish anything you desire no matter how hard your life is and that the only thing you need is a will to live.
As I said at the beginning, not all heroes wear capes. Still, I can assure you that my hero wore not one but many capes throughout his acting career days. He proved to everyone that you can wrestle with destiny and win! I know that most people expect from a hero to be a hero to everyone which is almost always the case with a soldier, a policeman, a firefighter, etc. but I could not be more proud of having a person who is a hero to me.

FADE IN: INTERIOR COURTHOUSE. We are in a small room used for prisoner-lawyer interviews. A guard sits at a desk behind STEVE.
KATHY O'BRIEN, STEVE’S lawyer, is petite, red-haired, and freckled. She is all business as she talks to STEVE.
O’BRIEN
Let me make sure you understand what’s going on. Both you and this King character are on trial for felony murder. Felony murder is as serious as it gets. Sandra Petrocelli is the prosecutor, and she’s good. They’re pushing for the death penalty, which is really bad. The jury might think they’re doing you a big favor by giving you life in prison. So you’d better take this trial very, very seriously.
When you’re in court, you sit there and you pay attention. You let the jury know that you think the case is as serious as they do. You don’t turn and wave to any of your friends. It’s all right to acknowledge your mother.
I have to go and talk to the judge. The trial will begin in a few minutes. Is there anything you want to ask me before it starts?
STEVE
You think we’re going to win?
O’BRIEN (seriously)
It probably depends on what you mean by “win.”

Answer:
O'Brien seems to have doubts about whether Steve is innocent. She shows this by saying, "It probably depends on what you mean by 'win.' O'Brien also shows that she does not respect Steve very much, because she orders him around as if he does not know how to behave.

Explanation:
Sarah changed the words of the pig lullaby so that they rhymed, and every night she sang it to little Stanley. "If only, if only," the woodpecker sighs, "The bark on the tree was as soft as the skies." While the wolf waits below, hungry and lonely, Crying to the moo–oo–oon, "if only, if only." How do the words "if only, if only" parallel Stanley's predicament?
Answer:
Stanley wished that everything that happened in his life was different. This compares with the words "if only, if only", because it reflects Stanley's thinking thinking "If only things were different."
Explanation:
Stanley has a curse that damages his life and makes him go through very bad situations in his life. He would very much like his life to have been different, that the experiences he had had been different. For this reason, Stanley can live in a constant feeling of projection where he thinks "if only my life were different, if only things had happened differently." This relates entirely to the song sung by Sarah, especially the words "if only, if only".
Answer:
Stanley wished that everything that happened in his life was different. This compares with the words "if only, if only", because it reflects Stanley's thinking thinking "If only things were different."

The parade marched down the street. It was led by a caped drummer. He set a stately pace and tapped the accompanying rhythm. A marching band followed behind him, matching his pace. Behind the band were floats of all sizes and designs. Children and adults were riding on the floats, tossing out penny candies, streamers, and plastic prizes. The street was lined with people. The noises of revelry filled the streets. Narrator's Perspective:
Answer:
The narrator's perspective is the third person point of view.
Explanation:
We can see that the narrator's perspective is in the third person because the narrator is not participating in the actions to which he is narrated, on the contrary, he has a panoramic view, from outside the situation in which a character is inserted and that character is not him . In other words, the narrator is not narrating a personal situation, in which he participated.
In addition, we can see that the narrated does not use pronouns like "I", "my" and "mine", which shows that he is not participating in the story.

why is it often difficult for most people to diagnose meningitis
early?
Answer:
Meningococcal disease can be difficult to diagnose because the signs and symptoms are often similar to those of other illnesses. If a doctor suspects meningococcal disease, they will collect samples of blood or cerebrospinal fluid (fluid near the spinal cord). Doctors then send the samples to a laboratory for testing.
Explanation:
Answer:
Meningitis is an extremely serious, often life-threatening disease — yet its early symptoms often resemble the flu, and that can make it difficult to diagnose. There are five types of meningitis, each caused by different factors.

Please help me with these following English Terms: Phrases, Clauses, and Conjunctions. Thanks. Please when you respond, respond with detail!!
Answer:
A phrase is a group of words that express a concept and is used as a unit within a sentence. Eight common types of phrases are: noun, verb, gerund, infinitive, appositive, participial, prepositional, and absolute. Take a look at our selection of phrase examples below.
1 : a group of words containing a subject and predicate and functioning as a member of a complex (see complex entry 2 sense 1b(2)) or compound (see compound entry 2 sense 3b) sentence The sentence "When it rained they went inside" consists of two clauses: "when it rained" and "they went inside."
Conjunction is a word that connects or joins clauses, words, phrases together in a sentence. Conjunctions are used to coordinate words in a sentence. “but”, “although”, “while” are some common conjunctions. Three types of conjunctions are Coordinating Conjunctions, Subordinating Conjunctions, Correlative Conjunctions.
Explanation:
You might want to reword some of the answers :)
Answer:
. A subordinating conjunction is simply the word/words that is used to join a subordinating clause to another clause or sentence.
example sentence:
"He was annoyed, the train had stopped."
"He was annoyed because the train had stopped."
By adding 'because' we are linking the subordinating clause "the train had stopped" with the main clause "He was annoyed".
Some examples of such subordinating conjunctions are once, while, when, whenever, where, wherever, before, and after.
A phrase is a related group of words. The words work together as a "unit," but they do not have a subject and a verb. A clause is a group of words that does have both a subject and a verb. Some clauses are independent, meaning that they express a complete thought.
Examples of Phrases and Clauses:
Examples of Phrases :
1. the boy on the bus (noun phrase)
2. will be running (verb phrase)
3. in the kitchen (prepositional phrase)
4. very quickly (adverb phrase)
5. Martha and Jan (noun phrase)
Examples of Clauses
1. When I get home (dependent or subordinate clause)
2. The lights are not on. (independent clause)
3. When you wake up (dependent or subordinate clause)
4. Put it on the shelf. (independent clause-understood subject "you)
5. Since it fell on the floor (dependent or subordinate clause)

Dalila is mixing paste. For every 1 2/3 cups of water, she uses 2 1/2 cups of flour. How much flour does Dalila need for each cup of water? Write your answer as an improper fraction. Use KCF *
Answer:
1 cup of water = 3/2 cups of flour
Explanation:
Given
1⅔ cup of water = 2½ cup of flour
Required
Determine the equivalent of 1 cup of water
1⅔ cup of water = 2½ cup of flour
Convert fractions to improper fraction
5/3 cup of water = 5/2 cup of flour
Multiply both sides by 3/5
3/5 * 5/3 cup of water = 3/5 * 5/2 cup of flour
1 cup of water = 15/10 cup of flour
1 cup of water = 3/2 cups of flour

What tone should you avoid in discussion?
objective
comedic
sarcastic
reasonable
sarcastic- people won't believe what you're saying.
PLEASE MARK ME AS BRAINLIEST
Answer:
The answer is sarcastic and comedic
Explanation: I know this is not a multi answer but it is both. The reason being is because if you are sarcastic no one will take you seriously and think you don't mean anything you say. Also because it is a rude way to talk to someone. When you are talking in a comedic tone again no one will take you seriously because it all seems like a big joke to you. And for that reason no one will want to do business with you or they will not ant to have a serious conversation with you.
