can some one give me a summary thats a paragraph long about friendship

Answers

Answer:Introduction:

Friendship is considered as one of the treasures that anyone can possess. God has given us the liberty to choose friends because they are for our lifetime. It is quite normal for our parents and siblings to love us because they are our own blood but a friend is someone who is initially a stranger and then takes his/her place above all the other relations. Friendship is nothing but pure love without any expectations.

Role of a Friend:

True friends share and support each other even during the toughest of times. A true friend is one who feels happy for our success, who feel sad for our failures, fight with us for silly things and hugs us the next second, gets angry on us when we do any mistakes. Friendship is all about having true friends who can understand us without the need for us to speak.

Conclusion:

Friendship is very essential for a happy life. Even a two-minute chat with a friend will make us forget our worries. That is the strength of friendship.

1. annihilate
2. antiquity
3. fissure
4. dissolution
5. rending
6. tumultuous

The Fall of the House of Usher

Answers

Answer:

1. Obliterate

2. Old

3. Cleft

4. Decadent

5. Tear

6. Clamorous

Explanation:

1. To annihilate is to destroy something, kill completely.  To Annihilate is to get rid of something completely. For example: genocide has the purpose to annihilate (get rid of) human beings who are different, belong to a certain religion or sect.  It came from the Late Latin word: "annihilatus" meaning "reduced to nothing", While obliterate means to in Latin to: "struck out", meaning "Trying something with multiple attempt but fail". Anihialate is the action of destroying completely, while obliterate is the action to attempt in annihilation, but, failing multiple times. [Have to try till you get rid of]

2. Antiquity is the past, usually referring before the Middle Ages. While old is something in particular that has aged, has much age.

3. Fissure is an opening on the Earth, it can happen during earthquakes or volcano eruptions. A crack. While cleft is when something is partially divided in two.

4. Dissolution is to have lack of morals referring in a religious manner or society. For example: Having a child before being married is something of great shame in the religious community, in society its normal. Even so, people who are not religious can also have these morals and look bad upon children who are a "bas-ta-rd", a child that was produced out of wed-lock. While decadent is someone who shows a decline in morals, the person is aware of the morals but they themselves "choose" to decline the moral and cultural norms and rules. For example: The U.S prohibits marriage of two or more people. Those who do it disobey the law.

5. Rending is to tear something into two or more pieces. Rending is not done in force, you can tear a piece of paper calmly. To tear is to rip something with force, for example: "He tore with his teeth the flesh upon her skin into two pieces".

6. Tumultuous is to make a loud and confusing noise while clamorous is a racket, its a noise made to be heard or to cause confusion. In Latin it means to "cry out".

We find it easy to tread on and crush a worm that we see crawling on the earth; so it is easy for us to cut or singe a slender thread that anything hangs by; thus easy is it for God when he pleases to cast his enemies down to hell.

Beatrice, a middle school student, is visiting a very tall office building and notices that she feels heavier when the elevator car is traveling up and lighter when the elevator car is travelling down. After making these observations, Beatrice comes back to the building and stands on a bathroom scale that measures her weight as she travels up and down in the elevator. What is one variable Beatrice could change in her investigation? What might she figure out if this variable were changed?

Answers

Answer:

Beatrice could change the independent variable

Explanation:

Beatrice wants to assess the influence of a lift's movement on her body weight. In this experiment, we can say that Beatrice's independent variable is the movement of the elevator, while the dependent variable is her body weight.

As you may already know, the independent variable is the one that can be measured and that influences a result to happen, while the dependent variable is the one that is influenced for a result to happen.

If Beatrice modified the independent variable, she could have a better result in her experiment. This is because the "elevator movement" is a very vague concept which leaves your experiment imprecise, since this variable cannot be quantified. It could then change this variable to "the elevator's speed" or "the elevator's rise and fall time".

(a) Determine the meaning of words and phrases as they are used in a text, including figurative meanings. In paragraph 1 of “A Quilt of a Country,” the author uses a simile, or a comparison. She says that the United States “was built of bits and pieces … like the crazy quilts that have been one of its great folk-art forms, velvet and calico and checks and brocades.” What does the comparison mean about the United States?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Anna Quindlen uses a simile in her article "A Quilt of a Country", comparing the United States to a quilt "built of bits and pieces..." This comparison means that the United States, just like the quilt, is formed by parts that do not originally match, that are dissimilar. However, once put together, those parts end up forming a beautiful mosaic of people. While the quilt has a thread to unite its parts, the United States has its ideals and dreams to unite the different people who form its population. Therefore, no matter what origin and cultural background people may have, they are still parts of an important and beautiful whole.

I believe its both.

Otherwise, if you're reading a personal development book, applying the lessons you learn in it is equally beneficial.

Different birds use different building designs: they can be huge or tiny,
made of twigs, grass, leaves, or mud. But most birds follow a similar final

Once eggs are laid in a nest, the parent birds will spend hour after hour
sitting on them to keep them warm and safe. They need that nice soft
lining for their own comfort.
This is probably the origin of the phrase "feather one's nest.” It means to
do something now that will provide for your own comfort later on.
