Answer:
The father represents an inspiration, a model to be followed in the narrator's life.
Explanation:
In "The Third Bank of the River," the narrator shows how his father's role in being a provider and a mentor impacts his life. The narrator has his father as an inspiration, a role model, but his view of the father is questioned, by himself, when the father decides to leave the family and travel alone. This makes the narrator reflect on the reasons that led the father to abandon everything he was responsible for. In this case, the narrator, in addition to questioning the father's role in his own life, questions whether he is doomed to do the same things.

ome kids think that drugs are healthy. “Vaping is good for you” because it doesn’t do anything. “Weed is good for you” because it helps you calm down and forget. These are perfect examples as to why they are not good. Vaping damages your lungs and can give your body cancer. Over time, smoking weed may cause chronic cough and other health issues. Both vaping, weed, cigarettes, alcohol, and many more drugs are not good for you or your body.
Drugs are used across the world. Whether they are used properly or abused. Drugs are easy to become addicted to. They can cause substance abuse, which leads to jail time. While drugs also heal people, for example, prescription drugs when used properly are beneficial. They need to be used in restraint because even medically given to you, they are addictive. For example, pain-reducing opioids, though they are helpful they are addictive. All minds are affected; it's not just a teenager thing. Drugs should be monitored by someone, and while it is slightly out-of-pocket, it's a lot better than spending possible years in prison.
Vaping may be a little better than weed or cigarettes but it still harms your body in multiple ways. It causes you to crave and if you don’t follow that craving it will lead to withdrawal symptoms. Nicotine is an addictive chemical. It is a toxic substance. It raises your blood pressure and spikes your adrenaline, which then increases your heart rate. Increased heart rate can conclude to having a heart attack.
An abundance of alcohol can harm the liver. This can lead to hepatitis, which is the buildup of scar tissue that eventually destroys the organ. Alcohol may cause kidney, bladder, and prostate inflammation. Alcohol is also an addictive substance, though alcohol may relieve pain and make you forget things, too much will make you drunk and incoherent.
Opioids are a class of drugs used to reduce pain. Prescription opioids can be prescribed by doctors to treat moderate to severe pain, but can also have serious risks and side effects. Common types are oxycodone (OxyContin), hydrocodone (Vicodin), morphine, and methadone. Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid pain reliever.

She remembered her promise to herself, and kept it.
Her daughters, Aiya and Alaya had the kindest mother anyone could ask for. Iman and Harden didn’t stop their adventures in France, where Iman gave birth, but traveled the Netherlands, England, Australia, The Americas, Asiawith her daughters all before their 18th birthday.

Explanation:
Write a character sketch for your protagonist in your Module One short story. Include literal, interpretive, and evaluative information. Your character sketch should be 3–5 complete sentences and include at least three specific details from the text to support your character analysis. (My story is Rules of the game by Amy tan.)
Answer and Explanation:
A character sketch, as the name suggests, is a type of draft or summary of a character. Sketches are often used by authors during the pre-writing phase, as a means to build their characters. They usually concern physical appearance, personality, actions, and feelings, among other possibilities. In this case, we are analyzing a character that belongs to an existing story. Since the story you chose is "Rules of the Game", we will be sketching the narrator/main character, Waverly.
Character sketch:
Waverly is a young girl of Chinese descent. She is a quick learner, picking up life lessons as well as learning to play chess with an ease that is quite surprising for her age. Waverly also seems to have a questioning nature, especially when it comes to certain demands from her mother. Even though she can be considered a genius, Waverly is still just a girl who has to mature and learn enough to become as strong and resilient as her mother.
Now, let’s provide evidence to the sentences above:
1. Waverly is a young girl of Chinese descent. She is a quick learner, picking up life lessons as well as learning to play chess with an ease that is quite surprising for her age. - "Bite back your tongue," scolded my mother when I cried loudly, yanking her hand toward the store that sold bags of salted plums. At home, she said, "Wise guy, he not go against wind. In Chinese we say, Come from South, blow with wind-poom!-North will follow. Strongest wind cannot be seen." The next week I bit back my tongue as we entered the store with the forbidden candies.
I studied each chess piece, trying to absorb the power each contained. I learned about opening moves and why it's important to control the center early on; the shortest distance between two points is straight down the middle. I learned about the middle game and why tactics between two adversaries are like clashing ideas; the one who plays better has the clearest plans for both attacking and getting out of traps.
2. Waverly also seems to have a questioning nature, especially when it comes to certain demands from her mother. - One day, as she struggled to weave a hard-toothed comb through my disobedient hair, I had a sly thought. I asked her, "Ma, what is Chinese torture?" My mother shook her head.
3. Even though she can be considered to be a genius, Waverly is still just a girl who has to mature and learn enough to become as strong and resilient as her mother. - "What you say?" I knew it was a mistake to say anything more, but I heard my voice speaking, "Why do you have to use me to show off? If you want to show off, then why don't you learn to play chess?" My mother's eyes turned into dangerous black slits. She had no words for me, just sharp silence.

Explanation:
Throughout human history, dreams have terrified, thrilled, and
inspired us. But what do they mean? What is their purpose? This essay will provide several explanations from various fields and raise a few questions about dreams that are yet to be answered.
2. What qualifies as a dream exactly? The term dream can refer to
our hopes about the future, as in, "One day I dream of visiting
Paris." Dreams can also refer to waking fantasies that we largely
have control over, such as daydreams. However, the scientific
field of oneirology is concerned with what happens when we
sleep. "For a dream to be a dream, it has to be an involuntary
experience that occurs during the Rapid Eye Movement, or REM,
stage of sleep," says neuropsychologist Martin Dyson. "All other
uses of the word dream fall outside the domain of science."
While all types of dreams are important, it is these nighttime
dreams that truly fascinate us.
3. In a typical night's rest, REM sleep is the stage that happens in
the final few hours before we wake up in the morning. In The Science of Dreams and the Dreams of Science, author Isabella
Greene explains that this stage of sleep is marked by brain
activity that is similar to the brain activity of people who are
awake (224). Sleepers have "experiences" during REM sleep, just
as waking people do. Some scientists think that during REM
sleep the brain clears out our short-term memory and commits
important experiences, such as getting a raise or breaking up
with our sweethearts, to long-term memory. But why we dream
during this process is still a mystery.
4. Some intriguing, though incomplete, ideas have come from
researchers trying to explain why our brains give us such vivid
and emotional experiences every night. Sigmund Freud believed
that dreams are expressions of memories and anxieties that we
avoid thinking about during our waking lives. Carl Jung provided
a modern version of the ancient opinion that dreams are
messages that help us figure out how to avoid disaster, almost
like prophecies. Perhaps the popularity of Jung's interpretation is
the reason that many people keep dream journals, wherein they write down their dream experiences before they forget them.
After all, if dreams are messages, one had better not ignore them.
5. But interpreting dreams seems to be a basic human desire, and
interpretations of dreams predate modern psychology by many
years. The ancient Sumerians, Chinese, and Indians believed that,
during dreams, the soul escapes from the body to wander in a spiritual realm. The ancient Greek physician, Hippocrates,
theorized that the soul creates its environment when one is asleep and receives its environment when one is awake. Given
that modern science has yet to explain dreams, any ancient interpretation is as good as a modern one for now. Perhaps one
day that won't be the case.
6. Until the truth behind dreams is finally revealed, people will continue to speculate about their purpose. And even if the role of dreams is finally articulated, dreams will continue to haunt us,
fascinate us, and move us. which is the best example of a description paragraph in the essay?
Answer:
Paragraph 3
Explanation:
