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.)

Answers

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.

Answers

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.

Explain subshells and orbitals

Answers

Answer:

Atomic orbitals describe where an electron is likely to be found in an atom.

Every atomic orbital is associated with three quantum numbers, n, l, and ml, which describe the energy, angular momentum of the orbital's electron(s), and orientation of the orbital.

The "sub shells" are the orientations and shapes for orbitals. Essentially, they are a subdivision of electron shells, separated by electron orbitals.

Same [tex]n[/tex] and [tex]l[/tex] → same sub-shell

Same [tex]n[/tex], [tex]l[/tex], and [tex]ml[/tex] → same orbital

All electrons that share the same orbital shape within the same shell/energy level, are in the same sub-shell. When electrons share the same energy level, shape, and orientation, they are in the same orbital.

This is a very brief recap of subshells and orbitals.

Does this sound good :)
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.

Answer:

told from the point of view of Ben Benally, Abel's roommate in the apartment in Los Angeles. It is the day after Abel—badly beaten by unknown assailants and left in a ditch on the beach—has left Los Angeles to return to Walatowa. Ben remembers going up on a hill in the city with many Indians the night before. The group, which included Tosamah and Cristobal Cruz, started playing songs and dancing while Abel and Ben went off by themselves. Abel and Ben made a pact to meet sometime in the future, just the two of them and two horses among the hills, and to sing the song called "House Made of Dawn."

Ben gradually reveals the events of the prior weeks. We learn that Abel had been drinking far too much and finally quit working at the factory to spend all his time at bars. One evening, over a poker game at Tosamah's, Abel became so enraged with Tosamah that he tried to hit him. Abel was too drunk, however, and merely stumbled, provoking laughs from the others in the room.

From that point on, Abel descended further into drunkenness and poverty until he had a fight with Ben and left the apartment. Abel and Ben had been mugged by a corrupt local cop earlier that week, and Ben implies that Abel was perhaps intending some sort of revenge when he left the apartment. Regardless of whether or not Ben's guess is correct, Abel returns to the apartment three days later, crashing to the floor of the stairwell, badly beaten and seemingly close to death
