Write a paragraph imagining your self a bird of 150 words

Answer:

I fly from one branch to another and look down at the strange creatures below me. How odd and queer these creatures are! They stay on the ground, never once enjoying the rush of a good flight.

And their manner of communication! A cacophony if anything! One minute the creature speaks in a certain manner, and another minute it sounds completely different.

They have what I suppose they named hands and legs, a mouth, a nose, and eyes.

Sometimes they get very close to me as if they're going to hurt me. When they do so, I take flight, fearful of their malevolent intentions.

Unlike the nests which we, the birds, make and have, the queer creatures create a shelter that is bigger than the tree itself. And they put items inside it! How odd!

They sometimes go out and get into a sort of machine, I think I heard them name it 'a car'. The machine comes to life and makes me jolt out of fear, as I watch it move away at a speed that even I cannot match.

At other times, they leave some of their food out in the open, and when it is left unsupervised I fly there and eat it, for their food doesn't resemble ours in any way.

But these pests, these creatures, they are unfortunate for they can never take off to the sky. They can never fly away from their troubles.

But I can.

I hope this helps!  (•◡•)

Read the excerpt from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass.

If any one thing in my experience, more than another, served to deepen my conviction of the infernal character of slavery, and to fill me with unutterable loathing of slaveholders, it was their base ingratitude to my poor old grandmother. She had served my old master faithfully from youth to old age. She had been the source of all his wealth; she had peopled his plantation with slaves; she had become a great-grandmother in his service. She had rocked him in infancy, attended him in childhood, served him through life, and at his death wiped from his icy brow the cold death-sweat, and closed his eyes forever.

Which line from this excerpt contains imagery?

What Happens When Fuels Burn?


Most people burn fuel every single day. Fuels are substances that release energy when they burn. They are very important to us because we use the energy from burning fuels to do many things, such as run cars and buses, heat homes, and cook food. For example, gasoline is the fuel used in most car engines. When it burns, the energy it releases makes the car move. To prepare for a long trip, you fill your gas tank with gasoline—but after you drive for a while, the tank is empty and you need to fill it up again. What happened to the gasoline? Where did it go? When we burn something—whether it is a log, a match, or the gasoline in our gas tank—what we are actually doing is causing a chemical reaction. Burning gasoline may not seem like the kinds of chemical reactions that you have seen before. After all, chemical reactions cause substances to change into other substances as the atoms of the reactants rearrange to form the products. When gasoline burns, it doesn’t seem to change into a different substance. Instead, it seems to disappear, leaving you with an empty tank. If burning gasoline actually causes a chemical reaction to happen, then why doesn’t your tank fill up with a different substance? Can a chemical reaction cause something to change into nothing?


Scientists began to wonder about this question back in the 1700s. Around this time, a French scientist named Antoine Lavoisier (an-TWAN la-VWA-see-ay) began studying what happened to the masses of substances before and after a chemical reaction. Mass is a measure of how much matter makes up an object. First, Lavoisier measured the mass of two reactants before mixing them to cause a chemical reaction. After the reaction had happened, he measured the mass of the products. Every time, Lavoisier found that the reactants and the products had the same mass! Through these experiments, Lavoisier helped come up with the idea we now call the Law of Conservation of Matter: matter cannot be created or destroyed during chemical reactions. This is because the atoms that make up all matter cannot be created or destroyed during chemical reactions. This law tells us that all of the atoms that go into a chemical reaction must come out in the form of one substance or another. Chemical reactions cause atoms to rearrange into new and different groups, but the atoms themselves never stop existing, and new atoms never appear out of nowhere. So what does the Law of Conservation of Matter have to do with burning gasoline? It means that even though your gas tank is empty, the atoms that formed the gasoline must still exist somewhere in some form. The only reason that these atoms seem to disappear is because the substances that form when gasoline burns are invisible gases. You can’t see them, but they are there, and sometimes that isn’t a good thing.

Carbon-Containing Fuels


Gasoline is just one of many fuels that contain carbon. One of the most common fuels in use today is ethanol, a substance made up of groups of two carbon atoms, six hydrogen atoms, and one oxygen atom. Ethanol is made from corn and used as a substitute for gasoline. Like gasoline, ethanol is a colorless liquid at room temperature. When you burn anything, including ethanol, you are mixing it with oxygen. However, just having oxygen around isn’t enough to make something burn; this reaction only happens at a high temperature. Burning reactions release energy in the forms of heat and light, but these chemical reactions result in more than just energy. See the diagram below to learn more. The chemical reaction that happens when ethanol and oxygen mix produces two substances: carbon dioxide and water in the gas phase. Since both of these are invisible, colorless gases, it seems like nothing is left of the liquid that was in your gas tank. However, the atoms of the reactants haven’t disappeared at all—they’ve only rearranged to form the products. The carbon dioxide and water produced by this chemical reaction enter the atmosphere whenever we burn ethanol or other carbon-containing fuels. In the recent past, humans have increased the amount of carbon dioxide in Earth’s atmosphere by burning such fuels, resulting in widespread changes to Earth’s climate. In response to these effects, scientists are working to find fuels that can release energy without producing carbon dioxide.

Look at this section of the poem "White-Eyes."

In winter
all the singing is in
the tops of the trees
where the wind-bird

with its white eyes
shoves and pushes
among the branches.
Like any of us

he wants to go to sleep,
but he's restless—
he has an idea,
and slowly it unfolds

This section of the poem is a good example of how

one idea can be carried over more than one stanza.
each stanza can represent a separate idea.
each line of a poem can be a complete sentence.
all parts of a poem can be about different topics.

help pls and fast I will mark brainiest for 2 questions when awsering answer both questions and say wich one for wich

What does this sentence mean:

Coatis are raccoon-like mammals native to South and Central America. Many people find them cute, and tourists have made a habit of offering the coatis food. Coatis realize that it is easier to seek out tourists than to search the forest for bugs. Like humans, they prefer junk food to what they should be eating. For their part, tourists do little to discourage the animals. After all, a coati drinking soda makes for a great vacation photo. Scientists, however, say that coatis and humans do best when they stay away from each other.


Coatis and tourists _________.




A persist


B interact


C respond


D negotiate

why is this poem the biggest piece of junk on the planet it makes no sense

The right to make my dreams come true,
I ask, nay, I demand of life,
Nor shall fate's deadly contraband
Impede my steps, nor countermand;
Too long my heart against the ground
Has beat the dusty years around,
And now at length I rise! I wake!
And stride into the morning break!

what was the effect of this on the reader? what was the purpose of the article?

Help pls! A Change of Plans

David and his mother walked down the sidewalk. They had a tradition of going to the park every Saturday morning. They enjoyed these trips and tried not to miss them. However, the past three weekends their family had other plans, so they had to miss their weekly visit.

“I’m so glad we’re going to the park today,” David said. He nearly ran down the sidewalk with his soccer ball in his hands. I think Miguel and Steve will be there, and we can practice our soccer dribbling.”

David decided to show off and started bouncing the ball on his knees while he walked. His mother laughed, but warned him to pay attention to where he was walking. Suddenly, they both heard a large crash, and David jumped with fright. Then they saw a huge flash in the sky. A thunderstorm was developing nearby. David’s mother explained that it was too dangerous to be out walking or at the park, so they would have to go home.

“But mom!” David exclaimed. “I haven’t been to the park in nearly a month. I’ll never be a star soccer player if I don’t make time to practice.”

“Sorry, David,” she said. “I was looking forward to our visit too, but we can’t take a risk with this dangerous weather.”

David huffed, and turned around to walk back home. Crash! They heard another crash of thunder, and they both started walking even more quickly home. Just then, a cold wind swept passed them, blowing a layer of leaves and dirt off the sidewalk. The air cooled quickly, and they both realized the storm was moving directly toward them.

“Let’s run, so we make it home before it starts to rain,” his mother said.

David and his mother ran quickly down the sidewalk, occasionally looking at the gray clouds forming overhead. Finally, they reached their house and ran up the steps. Just as David’s mother put the key in the door, a few large raindrops began to hit the pavement. She opened the door, they ran inside, and then the rain began to pour down.

David looked out the window in amazement - the rain was falling so hard that it was hard to see the street in front of his house. Then he saw white specks coming down from the sky and bouncing off the pavement.

“Oh my! It’s hailing!” his mother said.

David had never seen anything like it before, so he looked closely at the white specks on the ground.

“Is that ice lying on the ground?” David asked.

“Yes,” said his mother. “Even though it’s warm and summerlike here on the ground, the atmosphere can be really cold - cold enough to make ice. When that happens, a thunderstorm can make hail in the sky and then it falls as a type of precipitation -
similar to snow and rain.”

David could hardly believe what his mother was telling him. He asked if he could do some research about hail on the computer. David then learned that hail forms when raindrops are pushed higher in the atmosphere, where it is cold. The raindrops freeze high in the atmosphere. Then, the frozen drops collide with other drops, forming larger balls. David then ran outside and collected some of the pieces of hail, which had begun to melt, and put them in the freezer.

“I want to keep a few samples,” said David. “Did you know that some hail can be as large as baseballs?”

David’s mother smiled as he read her additional facts from the articles he had read. She noticed that the sun was shining outside. She walked to the widow and looked up at the sky and realized that the storm had passed. She suggested that she and David go back to the park so he could practice his soccer skills.

“Let’s try that again next week,” David said. “I like that we had a change of plans today.”
