This is a rather corny play on words (also known as a pun).
If you draw squares on Dracula, you are checking a count, which is a humorous riddle meaning to resemble the term checking account used in business and economics.

I am not sure what a joke has to do here, but anyway, a question is a question. This is a joke which answer expects a pun or a play with words. The answer to this joke is: "Checking account"

When somebody asks you what do you call drawing squares on Dracula you answer: Checking account because Dracula was a Count, and the sound produced by saying together " a count" is the same as "account".

A checking account is a deposit account held at a financial institution that allows withdrawals and deposits. Also called demand accounts or transactional accounts, checking accounts are very liquid and can be accessed using checks, automated teller machines and electronic debits, among other methods.

This joke makes reference to this popular kind of bank account.

Review each paragraph of the essay. Then write down one statement from each paragraph that you think sums up the main idea of th

Sever21 [200]

Paragraph I.

Answer:

In order to reunite with nature, a person needs to withdraw and look at it with fresh and pure eyes, without all the bias that civilization has imposed on us.

Explanation:

In our lives, we are too often immersed in trivial worldly affairs, so much so that we take nature and its beauty for granted. Stars, for example, are so magnificent that they are worthy of adoration. But we often fail to see their magnificence just because we see them every night.

Paragraph II.

Answer:

Nature's beauty and perfection are inexhaustible even for the wisest of people.

Explanation:

We can try to grasp nature's wonders all we want - they will never expire or cease to exist, nor will they become incomprehensible. On the contrary, nature will always reflect both "the wisdom of [a man's] best hour" and "the simplicity of his childhood".

Paragraph III.

Answer:

A man can own fields or farms or woods, but he can never own nature itself.

Explanation:

Nature is integral (whole and undivided). Even though people may draw lines and boundaries through it, they can never own it. Only the poet can grasp its full integrity.

Paragraph IV.

Answer:

Nature is comprehensive and inclusive of all of our feelings.

Explanation:

In nature, a man can reestablish contact with his youth and childhood, but also with his own universal nature. Only there can he finally understand how pointless his egotism is, how unimportant all his worldly concerns and cares.

Paragraph V.

Answer:

In their essence, man and nature are connected with an unbreakable bond.

Explanation:

Even if physically alone, a man can never be truly alone in nature. That is because every element of nature (for example, a bough) reflects his inner, spiritual processes. A storm may take a man by surprise, but it is not unknown or unfamiliar to him.

Paragraph VI.

Answer:

Human spirit and emotions are a result of harmony between man and nature.

Explanation:

We can "read" the same landscape differently, according to our current emotions. For example, a scene that yesterday seemed delightful can today appear as melancholic. "Nature always wears the colors of the spirit," says Emerson in this paragraph. It means that nature is susceptible to our imagination, which in turn means that man and nature are equal, and equally important.

Zina [86]

Answer:

Neto's conflict about playing football for racist fans is developed through

complications. First, he encourages all of the players to quit the team, but most of

the players decide to keep playing. Then, the school officials refuse to help. These

events reach a climax when Allison reads a letter against racism at the next football

game. The resolution is that the fans change their behavior. Now, Neto knows that

some things are more important than football and that he can make a difference in his
