Why the Bat flies at Night
By John Fumey
Once upon a time, in the distant past, there was a great war between the animals who live in the sky and those that live on the ground. Nobody now remembers how the war started or what it was about, but it was a terrible time. Many animals on both sides were wounded or killed, and eventually somebody said that if they carried on like this, there would be no animals left on the earth. So some of the sky animals and some of the ground animals had a meeting, and as nobody could recall what they were fighting each other for, it was agreed that a truce should be called, and peace declared.
For the sky dwellers, the heron was appointed to make the announcements, and for the ground animals, the hare would do this job, as he was able to get around the area very quickly. This was done the next morning, but as all animals settled down, realising they could now live in peace and rebuild their lives, some body found the body of Mr. Bat. He was the last victim of the war, and must have been killed late the previous day. All the flying animals were very upset, and they decided to organise a big burial for their friend. But as they were preparing his body for the funeral, one of the birds noticed that Mr. Bat had teeth in his mouth.
How was that possible? Flying animals don’t have teeth. They called a meeting, and they agreed that Bat can’t be one of them, as no other bird has teeth in his mouth. So they took bat’s body to the ground animals, and told them that as Mr. Bat was not a bird, it was their responsibility to give him a decent burial.
The ground animals agreed to accept the body, but then, as they were preparing for the burial, one of them shouted: “Wait a minute, this bat may have teeth, but he definitely also has wings! How can he be one of us if he has wings?”
So now the ground animals had a meeting to consider the problem, and they decided that no ground animal can have wings, so therefore, Mr Bat can’t be regarded as one of them. So they too, refused to bury Mr Bat.
Poor Mr Bat, the flying animals refused to accept him because he has teeth, and the ground animals refused to accept him because he has wings. And that is why the bat is still flying around every night.
Can somebody help me with this? The questions are: 1. Why did the little prince want to know if sheep eat bushes? 2. What 2 plants grew on the princes planet? 3.the little prince spoke of a planet on which a crazy man lived. What had he neglected to do? 4. What did the little prince want to see because he was very fond of it? 5. (This has to do with number 4) why could he not see it? And also this is from the book “the little prince”
Answer: 1 The Little Prince is worried that the sheep might eat the rose. 2 a rose and a baobab. 3 The crazy (actually lazy) man did not keep the baobab tree on his planet under control, so it grew so large that it destroyed his planet.
There is another man so busy with "serious" business that he neglected to think about the conflict between sheep and roses, or why roses have thorns...
Explanation: This part is more complicated: 4 The Little Prince wants to see the rose. The rose is temperamental and proud. She tells him to go away. 5 She does not want him to see her crying. (at the end of chapter IX)
There may be other reasons. The Little Prince goes on a voyage that takes him to other asteroids and eventually to Earth.

Which quote from the story helps shows person versus society conflict in the story of the Titanic?
Responses
1 "Down in the plain wooden cabins of the steerage class were 706 immigrants."
2 "She was not only the largest ship afloat, but was also believed to be the safest."
3 "Slowly, the Titanic stopped."
4 "Her sister ship, the Olympic, had been in service for some months already."
Answer:
So this question was actually pretty confusing so in the end I got this answer:
'Down in the plain wooden cabins of the steerage class were 706 immigrants.' I thought that would fit well because 'person versus society' means it shows a struggle between a character and larger social forces, and the only option with a 'person' (in this case people) against a society which I would assume were the rich people and people who could afford to travel in the best conditions and were not struggling like the immigrants?
In the second option, there was no general 'conflict' nor 'people.' In the third option, I guess the 'conflict' could be that the titanic but in general, all the people in the ship were all the same endangered. In the fourth option, there were no people nor any conflict. (I mean unless it was talking about rivalry between the ships or something?)

Answer:
In "We Beat the Street," Rameck and Sampson learn several lessons from their experiences in jail. Firstly, they both come to understand the importance of having a strong support system. Rameck notes that his mother and his friends were his source of strength while he was in jail, and without them, he would have struggled to get through the experience. Secondly, they both learn that their actions have consequences and that they need to be more responsible in their behavior. After spending time in jail, they both realize that they cannot continue down the path of crime and drugs and that they need to make positive changes in their lives.
Finally, Rameck and Sampson both learn that education is the key to success. While in jail, they both have time to reflect on their lives and realize that their lack of education has been a major contributor to their problems. They vow to get their education and use it to better their lives and help others. In the text, Rameck says, "I learned that the only way to get ahead in life was through education."
Overall, Rameck and Sampson's experiences in jail were significant turning points in their lives, and they both learned valuable lessons that helped them turn their lives around and become successful individuals.

When he was two, if you laid him on his stomach, he began to try to move himself, straining terribly. The doctor said that with his weak heart this strain would probably kill him, but it didn’t. Trembling, he’d push himself up, turning first red, then a soft purple, and finally collapse back onto the bed like an old worn-out doll. I can still see Mama watching him, her hand pressed tight across her mouth, her eyes wide and unblinking. But he learned to crawl (it was his third winter), and we brought him out of the front bedroom, putting him on the rug before the fireplace. For the first time he became one of us.
