a narrative essay on how you spent your last Christmas holiday​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Based on a true story

The empty glass clinks alongside filled liquids of rich sour stenches. The sweat that sticks their dangling hairs from escaped traps of rubber tales glued tight to necks. The plastic plates drizzle oil of cooked meats that season tongues to delectable mixtures of fulfilling hunger. The festive mood travels to everybody from a smile to laughter that enriches the moments of a rare get-together.

"I've forgotten just how much I could enjoy myself in the company of loved ones." The sweetheart of the family uncle proclaims, chest hearty with a chirping kid asleep on his lap. He pledges down to his chest a heartfelt confession.

"Oh yeah, well maybe you should come over more often, you do realize we do this usually once a year." The grouchy aunt scoffed, crossing her arms as she smirks slightly towards his cheeky act.

"Well you know I can't make it every time, but I-"

"Will you make it for my birthday Uncle Steven?" The little girl croaks from his lap sleepily.

"why, of course, I come back for you everyday silly. You live with me."

"oh yeah." As she smiles to herself and slowly tucks her small head back to his lap to once again, sleep.

In unison, the family fills the gesture with a response of joy as they build laughter to bounce the entire house. This lovely family, seemingly warm and kindly, but the mirror of themselves lie victim to those not looking to their eyes.

Hatred, disgust, the look of betrayal and grotesque nature of their judgmental gestures; the wicked scowl hidden beneath every soft touch they mean to pinch sour to pain

"sleep now, buddy. You got a long day ahead of you tomorrow." The uncle softly pats the girls head as he raises mashed potatoes to his mouth.

oh? And what's the occasion?" The snarky aunt spits, raising a hand to her mouth.

He slowly places down his fork, a smile plastered up, "We're moving houses,"

"Oh? You didn't tell us anything about that? Where to?"

"Oh, you know, farther from you." He begins.

She threw the table in an instant with her fists close to his jaw.

"Oh? And what do I owe this pleasure of a gesture to." She hisses through closed teeth, announcing her sudden action.

"Oh. You're disgusting cooking." He calmly replies as he cooly sips his tea, whispering soft liquid to his parched mouth and snarky comebacks.

"WELL MAYBE NEXT TIME WHY DON'T YOU COOK FOR US!" She threatens, a coy look on her face.

"I OFFERED BUT I FIGURED WE'D MISS YOUR BEIGE CHICKEN! ALWAYS A GREAT MOTIVATOR TO TURN VEGAN!" He stared back at her, carefully moving the little girls head and placing her on the grandpa's shoulder, he was taking his afternoon nap.

"hmm, shut up you too, the kids are sleeping, so unless you wanna lose sleep, I'd sit down and eat your food." The old, gnarly witch grandmother cackled, poking her chicken slice to bits and pieces for her gums to smack.

The siblings cowered back down at this and proceeded to plaster another smile for the rest of the night.

you would use the word “but” since two very different actions are being described! “went to work” is the exact opposite of “went home.”

basically, you would use “or” if you were CHOOSING something (for example, “Do i go to work or do i go home?” and “and” if the statements were similar (for example, “Stacy and I went to work.”).

2. It is human will that determines history.

Explanation:

War and Peace is a book written by Russian author Leo Tolstoy. It's a bit difficult to determine the genre this work belongs to as Tolstoy himself said he wouldn't call it a novel, but many refer to it as a historical novel. It tells about the French invasion of Russia at the beginning of the 19th century and its impact on Russian society through the stories of five Russian aristocratic families.

War and Peace doesn't tell only about events. It contains Tolstoy's thoughts on the flow of history as well. The excerpt you were given is an example of these thoughts. He argues with the opinion that great individuals, such as Napoleon, are the ones controlling the flow of history. He thinks that it is thousands of people and their will that determine what will happen. The human will is unpredictable, which is why many unexpected things have happened throughout human history.

This is why the second option is the correct one.

Explanation:

The paragraph accompanies the guidance, it describes in a simple but consistent and relevant way the problems and results of El Niño weather model. By doing that, if it concentrated on the subject, the first verdict shows us what El Niño is and why it is created. The second-order shows us the results of this weather design. As you can understand, the cause-effect form is practiced.

The only information that can be corrected is the length of the statement, maybe some more features of El Niño would enhance the essay, like the course of the year it is impersonated.

In this excerpt from A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, which two elements are developed?

"Spirit," said Scrooge, with an interest he had never felt before, "tell me if Tiny Tim will live."

"I see a vacant seat," replied the Ghost, "in the poor chimney-corner, and a crutch without an owner, carefully preserved. If these shadows remain unaltered by the Future, the child will die."

"No, no," said Scrooge. "Oh, no, kind Spirit! say he will be spared."

"If these shadows remain unaltered by the Future, none other of my race," returned the Ghost, "will find him here. What then? If he be like to die, he had better do it, and decrease the surplus population."

Scrooge hung his head to hear his own words quoted by the Spirit, and was overcome with penitence and grief.

"Man," said the Ghost, "if man you be in heart, not adamant, forbear that wicked cant until you have discovered What the surplus is, and Where it is. Will you decide what men shall live, what men shall die? It may be, that in the sight of Heaven, you are more worthless and less fit to live than millions like this poor man’s child. Oh God! to hear the Insect on the leaf pronouncing on the too much life among his hungry brothers in the dust!"

Scrooge bent before the Ghost's rebuke, and trembling cast his eyes upon the ground. But he raised them speedily, on hearing his own name.

Some claim that the Internet both invades and compromises one’s right to privacy. However, this is ridiculous. The Internet is only as invasive as one allows it to be, particularly since there are laws to protect people’s privacy. Exercising caution when supplying personal information online is the most vital step in protecting one’s privacy. Any information you do not feel comfortable sharing online should not be shared, and sensitive information should only be provided to trusted organizations. Additionally, some states have already enacted privacy laws that model the Federal Privacy Act of 1974, ensuring that information collected for one purpose may not be used—or sold—for other purposes without first notifying the individual to whom the data belongs. The first and most important protector of an individual’s information is that individual. People whose personal information is not properly protected only have themselves to blame. The tone of this rebuttal can best be described as angry. humorous. rude. respectful.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the following: option D. The function of reflective writing is to convey thoughts and feelings.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The sentence has two phrases that are not seprated by a semicolon, period, or comma.

Phrase One: "These instructions don't help"

Phrase Two: "I guess Ill have to call customer support."

Answer:

D. These instructions don't help I guess I'll have to call customer support.

Explanation: There's nothing separating the two clauses. If it wasn't a run-on sentence, there would be a conjunction, a semicolon, or a period. There are neither of these things in this sentence, so it is a run-on sentence.
