Amelia Earhart left for her final journey in 1937, leaving behind her husband, George Putnam, to whom she had been married to six years. In the time leading up to her departure, George helped and encouraged her. He fully supported her trip. Imagine that you are George Putnam. Write a short narrative that includes a conversation with your wife Amelia as she gets ready to depart. Make sure that you include narrative techniques, such as dialogue, pacing, and figurative language as you take on the character of George and consider how he would feel as his wife left on this trip. Remember, he does not know that she won’t return.

Answers

Answer 1
I felt Amelias side of the bed dip early in the morning. As I slowly opened my eyes I could see the light from the sun try to make its way higher in the sky. The clouds were a light pink and bird sung to each other in the trees. Amelias footsteps carried to the bathroom. The sound of the sinking running was the only sound in the house yet.

I sat up and watched my wife brush her teeth. Today is the day she makes history. I am so excited for her. She worked hard and reached for her goals, now her dream is coming true. My beloved looked at me and smiled, her toothbrush hanging out of her mouth. I chuckled a bit under my breath before rolling out of bed. “Aren’t you going to eat dear?” My voice groggily asked. She gave out a mumbled no, there was still toothpaste in her mouth. “No eggs or pancakes? You always eat breakfast,” my curiosity peaked a small amount. It wasn’t like her to skip meals.

She stepped out of the bathroom and leaned against the wall. “I’m nervous George. I know I can do it, and I will. It’s just butterflies. When you do something you know you can do, but your body is too excited,” her eyes drifted over the the window and she too saw the pink clouds. “I understand my love. You’ll do amazing though. You always do,” I smiled and walked over to her. I threw my arms around her shoulders and gave her a tight hug. I kissed her forehead and grabbed her shoulders, “When you’re back, you better eat breakfast with me.” She laughed and smiled. Oh how I’ll miss her smile. I know she’ll come back to me and I’ll see it again.

I went to go make myself breakfast while my wife got dressed. She may not be hungry but I surely am. The rest of the morning went smoothly and the weather was perfect. We pulled up to the hangers and she practically jumped out of the car. This girl and flying... if she had wings you’d never be able to get her to touch the ground...

I followed after her, of course locking the car door first, and saw her talking a reporter. She was gushing about her excitement and her smile was huge as ever. The reporter thanked her and walked away. She then proceeded to check the plane, making sure everything was in working order. She was so intelligent, her vast knowledge of planes and aerodynamics was far beyond me. Her brows furred while she concentrated and her mouth was in a thin line.

She finally hopped down and approached me. “I’ll be home before you know it,” with that she pulled me in for a hug, and gently kissed me. She got back in the plane and drove it to the runway. I met up with the rest of the crowd while the mayor was giving a long speech. When Amelia pulled up the crowd burst into cheers.

She gave a few words about progress and how achieving what you want can be done with enough determination. Amelia climbed once more into the plane and buckled up. She flipped some switches and pressed buttons. The plane came roaring to life.

She waved and blew me a kiss. I caught it and grinned back at her. Then the machine went roaring down the runway, slowly getting off the ground. Amelia soar into the sky like a plane. The sky was blue as ever and the clouds white as marshmallows. My dear Amelia looked like an angel as she flew away.

Which part of the following sentence is a dependent clause?
Until you finish your homework, you cannot go outside to play basketball.

Answers

Answer:

Until you finish your homework,

Explanation:

The dependent clause cannot make sense by itself, therefore splitting the sentence by the comma, you can determine which half of the sentence makes sense by itself. The one that doesn't make sense is the dependent clause since it is dependent on the other half of the sentence.

I agree it is “until you finish your homework”
for me the indicating word was “until” that helped me realize that the next thing that happened depended on whether or not the first thing was completed therefore the first part of the sentence was the dependent. Hope I explained that right

Read Robert Frost's "The Road Not Taken." What are two key themes of this poem?

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because (im covering this as a question but who has d!scord)it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Read scenes 1 and 2 from the play The King of Sharks:

Scene 1

Princess is swimming in the ocean, singing.

Narrator: Once, long ago, there lived a beautiful princess on the island of Hawai'i. She loved the ocean, and every morning, she swam in the warm water. While she swam, she sang songs about her love for the deep, blue water and her gratitude for the gentle waves.

Princess: Oh, how I love the ocean. I never want to live anywhere else. If I could not see the beauty of the blue water or hear the sound of the waves, my heart would break.

Princess sees a huge shark fin approaching. Frightened, she swims for shore.

Narrator: One day, the king of the sharks heard the princess's song. Enchanted by her voice and her love for the ocean, he decided he must meet her. Seeing how frightened she was of his true form, the shark king transformed himself into a human, with a magical cloak of scales in all the colors of the sea.

Princess watches in amazement as a prince in a cloak of many-colored scales steps out of the water and offers her his hand.

Shark King: Dearest Princess, I am so pleased to finally meet you. I have heard your songs many times, and I, too, love the ocean. It is my home.

Princess: Please, come with me to meet my family. They will be amazed to see you.

Exit princess and shark king.

Scene 2

Princess sits by a deep pool on the beach. A large home built into a cliff face is behind her. She holds a baby on her lap. In the pool, a large shark circles.

Narrator: After some time, the shark king and the princess were married. They lived together happily, and they had a son. Sadly, the enchantment that made the shark king human could not last forever.

Shark king emerges from the pool in human form. He removes his cloak and lays it at the princess's feet.

Shark King: My dearest one, I must return home to the ocean now. I will leave this magical cloak for our son. Whenever he wears it, he will be safe from all harm. One day, he will come to find me in his true home, under the waves.

Shark king jumps back into the pool and disappears down into its depths. The princess wraps the baby in the cloak.
------------------------
If the shark king had decided not to transform himself into a human in scene 1, how might scene 2 change?

A. Instead of being about the shark king's marriage and son, scene 2 might be about the shark king's friendship with the fishermen.

B. Instead of being about the shark king's marriage and son, scene 2 might be about the shark king's loneliness.

C. Instead of being about the shark king's marriage and son, scene 2 might be about the shark king's love of the ocean.

D. Instead of being about the shark king's marriage and son, scene 2 might be about the shark king's marriage to the princess.
