Which statement best summarizes "Save the Coral Reefs”? Coral reefs are a very important component of the ocean’s ecosystem beca

use they support sea life, such as crabs and sea turtles. In fact, over four thousand species depend on the survival of the reefs, which are being destroyed by bleaching. More must be done immediately to save the reefs. Development along the coastal regions has significant negative effects on coral reefs. The reefs are an essential part of the ocean’s ecosystem, and when people build structures on top of them, they are easily damaged because they are so fragile. We should limit construction along the coast to protect the reefs. Construction along the coasts, overfishing, and bleaching have seriously damaged the world’s coral reefs. Since reefs are a very important part of the ocean’s ecosystem, their destruction has a devastating environmental impact, and we must work to protect them. Coral reefs are fragile structures made of limestone. People who build in coastal regions and others who overfish our seas must be stopped, because they don’t care about all the species that rely on the survival of reefs, such as sea turtles, clownfish, lobster, sharks, and crabs.

The first statement because it contains a brief information about the importance of coral reefs in the environment and on other living things that rely on it to live.

Match the description to the word. 1. the information needed to understand a story complication 2. artificial ordering of events
motikmotik
1. the information needed to understand a story = exposition. 
Exposition refers to the author giving you some background details necessary for readers to understand what is going on in the story. Exposition is a fancy literary term for introduction to a story, which slowly leads the readers into the plot.

2. artificial ordering of events = plot.
Plot represents what is happening in the story - it refers to the events that occur throughout a novel, or a story. For example, the plot of Harry Potter is a boy going to a wizarding school in order to become powerful enough to defeat his enemy.

3. fictional person = character. 
A character is someone who is made up by an author in order to represent people in a novel or a story. For example, in Lord of the Rings, there are characters such as Frodo, Bilbo, Aragorn, Gandalf, etc who all appear in the book.

4. long prose narrative = novel.
A novel is a long narrative in the prose form. Prose is opposite of poetry, which means that it is written in a different way. Novels can be long or short (but definitely longer than a short story). Narrative means that there is something happening in it.

5. the catalyst that begins the major conflict = complication.
Complication refers to an event that complicates everything in a story. Usually this complication will lead to conflicts between characters which will have to be resolved throughout the story if the author wants to have such an ending.

6. partially established by the setting = mood.
Mood of a story refers to what feelings the author is trying to convey through the use of his word choice, setting, characters, events, etc. For example, in The Raven, by Poe, the mood is quite dark and dreary, as well as pessimistic and scary.

7. the turning point in the story that occurs when characters try to resolve the complication = climax.
Climax literally refers to the turning point - after that, the complication will either be resolved and all characters can finally be happy about it, or the opposite may happen - things may end in a very bad way. In Hamlet, for example, the complication ends with everyone dying. 

8. the set of events that bring the story to a close = resolution.
Resolution means that a lot of things happened throughout a story, but that everything is solved in the end and the story can finally be completed. Resolution means that there are no more conflicts because everything is resolved.

What aspect of The Metamorphosis is reflected in this excerpt from "Letter to His Father"
Ymorist [56]

The correct answer is C. As it is known, Kafka did not have a good relationship with his father, as he was abusive with him. Kafka’s father was also a narcissistic man and he did not care about his son and this can be proved in “Letter to His Father”. “The Metamorphosis” can be perceived as a sample of the solace that Kafka did in order to expel his demons against his father and so is “Letter to His Father”.  After Gregor becomes a bug, he can not longer communicate with his father and this a representation of what Kafka felt inside him with his own father since his father intransigent with him.

Option A is not correct as the confusion of Gregor Samsa does not have anything to do with the fact that he converted into a bug, so it would not make sense since it does not have a direct connection with Kafka’s relationship with his father.

Option B is not correct as the pain that Gregor feels inside of him is not the consequence of the bad relationship that Kafka had with this father. The fact that he is unable to go off the bed in order to continue with his life is something that is not connected with the fact that Kafka and his father did not have a good father and son relationship.

Option D is not correct since Gregor knows perfectly why his sister did not want to go inside his room with their parents as she has become a different person since Gregor converted into a bug. She does not want to see him because he is now a disgusting and bizarre creature; he is not her brother anymore. Although Gregor was a good brother with her, and supported her with her studies, it seems she has forgotten about that. Nonetheless, the relationship between Gregor and her sister does not represent any aspect in “Letter to His Father”.

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!
natta225 [31]

To infer something is to reach a <em>logical conclusion based on evidence</em>.

The correct option is A, Heroes help others despite personal risks.

Miep was risking her own life by staying. Miep Gies and her husband helped the Frank family for over two years by bringing them food and news, and keeping them hidden in an attic. She even brought paper so that Anne could write her diary. Based on the context of the story and the excerpt, it can be infered that  she and her husband were indeed heroes despite personal risks.
