In this excerpt from "Matilda", by Roald Dahl, Matilda's words reveal that she <em>C. has no idea why she has such a special talent</em>. Matilda is the daughter of the Wormwoods. Although she is five she can read and do maths. Her parents and her elder brother have no interest in Matilda or in her talents. She goes to the local library to fetch books, which she reads for hours on end and finds comfort in them.

<span>After Terri told attendees about the Steve she knew and loved, his dreams for wildlife protection, and the Irwin family's determination to continue his work, it was Bindi's turn to take the podium. With conviction and poise, she offered her perspective on the topic that had defined her eight years to date. "It's very sad, but in my lifetime, a lot of wildlife could disappear," she said. "We could lose tigers, gorillas, and even my favorite koalas could become extinct. We need to continue my daddy's work and make this place safer for animals."

Which of the following topics would be suitable for a short research paper?
Margaret [11]

An in depth study of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein would not be a short research paper. Ideally you would have to have a more specific research question/focus on one aspect of the novel. An in depth study is too broad.

An analysis of protagonists in Jane Austen's works once again would not be a short research paper, if it was limited to one or two of her books then yes but not all of them.

A comparison of Homers Illiad and Odyssey once again is too broad a topic and if you were to compare everything in both novels you would be looking at a rather lengthy research paper.

Moby D*ck is full of symbolism and if you could find a way to summarize effectively and succinctly the story and maybe just focus on the actual whale as the subject matter and what it represents in the book you could definitely make a good relatively short research paper out of it.  

Alternatively would be an analysis of Edgar Allan Poe's narrative style in The Black Cat. The Black Cat is a short story and ideal for this type of research paper.

Why did the author choose to provide this fictional account of Iqbal Masih, who was a real person? Check all that apply.
vladimir1956 [14]

Hello there,

Why did the author choose to provide this fictional account of Iqbal Masih, who was a real person? Check all that apply.

Story:

My first impression was that he was handsome. Then I thought, No, he isn't really good-looking. But he had such eyes. They were sweet and deep and they weren't afraid. He was standing at the threshold of the workroom with Hussain Khan's enormous hand gripping his arm and we were all looking at him. The fourteen of us child-slaves plus Karim, all observing another slave. He was one of the many who had come and gone over the years, but we felt that somehow, this new boy was different. He looked around at us, one by one. He was sad, of course, like anyone who has been away from home for a long time, like anyone who is little more than a slave, like anyone who can't imagine what will become of him.

Answers:

since some of these details are not known

to interpret and share real events

to bring Iqbal to life through descriptive detail and dialogue

to add details, such as characters' thoughts and feelings, to the story

to engage the reader by sharing his point of view about the topic
