Read the excerpt from "The Storyteller."

English

Answer:

"The children moved listlessly towards the aunt's end of the carriage."

"In a low, confidential voice, interrupted at frequent intervals by loud, petulant questionings from her listeners, she began an unenterprising and deplorably uninteresting story about a little girl who was good."

Explanation:

Situational irony occurs when the expected thing does not happen, or when the opposite result than what is presumed takes place. In the excerpt from "The Storyteller," by Hector Hugh Munro (Saki), when the aunt offers to tell the children a story, they do not expect it to be a good one. In fact, it is a boring account about an extremely good girl.

PRESS RELEASE
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

B. numbers replacing the bullets in the steps of the water-recycling process

C. numbers on the illustration indicating the corresponding steps in the text

Explanation:

Since the question asks what revisions should be done to make the document more informative, we should focus on what can be done to make the document more understandable to the readers.

Since the main point of the text, as shown by the heading is about a construction of a water reclamation plant, (A) is incorrect since the heading already provides this information clearly. (E) is outside of the context of the press release, while (D) is already illustrated through the attached image.

(B) is a good modification to do since processes should be numbered to make it clearer for the reader, and (C) would provide a better use of the image, since readers can immediately visualize how the processes described in the text would occur.

Write five lines about a little act of kindness done by you, and the result of it.
olasank [31]

Here you go!

Being kind to others is a very distinctive thing about you.  This could help people see your kindness. I gave someone candy by surprise and they jumped for joy. It was a win win situation because it did not harm any of us. In the end it is important to be kind because there are not much people out here like us.
