Discuss the limits and opportunities you may have for being able to set and meet life goals. How much do you believe in choice and self-determination? Do you feel outside social factors or something about your own nature keeps you from charting your life course? Do you feel you have more or less self-determination than other people such as friends, classmates, family members, or even celebrities?

Answers

Answer:

See explanation for answer.

Explanation:

As far as limits go, I have ADHD. So I struggle with meeting goals on time, especially long-term goals. I do believe in myself very much but I have my limits such as everyone else does. I lose patience and focus easily. So if my goal doesn't seem in reach I generally quickly determinate it or procrastinate with it. Seeing other people achieve their goals does make me feel like I can never do enough sometimes. Most of the time however it is my own nature that keeps me from meeting and accomplishing my goals. My self-determination is not the problem, I am plenty determined or just as determined as others to meet my goals, I just struggle more internally to do so than others do.

I hope this helps!

THE VOYAGES OF DOCTOR DOLITTLE
By Hugh Lofting

Chapter 1: The Cobbler's Son

My name was Tommy Stubbins, son of Jacob Stubbins, the cobbler of Puddleby-on-the-Marsh; and I was nine and a half years old. At that time Puddleby was only quite a small town. A river ran through the middle of it; and over this river there was a very old stone bridge, called Kingsbridge, which led you from the market-place on one side to the churchyard on the other.

Sailing-ships came up this river from the sea and anchored near the bridge. I used to go down and watch the sailors unloading the ships upon the river-wall. The sailors sang strange songs as they pulled upon the ropes; and I learned these songs by heart. And I would sit on the river-wall with my feet dangling over the water and sing with the men, pretending to myself that I too was a sailor.

For I longed always to sail away with those brave ships when they turned their backs on Puddleby Church and went creeping down the river again, across the wide lonely marshes to the sea. I longed to go with them out into the world to seek my fortune in foreign lands—Africa, India, China and Peru! When they got round the bend in the river and the water was hidden from view, you could still see their huge brown sails towering over the roofs of the town, moving onward slowly—like some gentle giants that walked among the houses without noise. What strange things would they have seen, I wondered, when next they came back to anchor at Kingsbridge! And, dreaming of the lands I had never seen, I'd sit on there, watching till they were out of sight.

There is a remarkable contrast in the atmosphere of the “valley of the ashes” with the atmosphere of West Egg and East Egg as well as that of Manhattan.

Answers

Answer:

The valley of ashes represents the moral and social decay that results from the uninhibited pursuit of wealth, as the rich indulge themselves with regard for nothing but their own pleasure. The valley of ashes also symbolizes the plight of the poor, like George Wilson, who live among the dirty ashes and lose their vitality as a result.

Why do you think JRR Tolkien made Bard kill Smaug. But not biblo or thorin 5 to 7 senteces
or in easier words Why do you think JRR Tolkien made Bard kill Smaug, and not Thorin or Bilbo?

Answers

Answer:

The thrushes were allies of the people of Dale and the dwarves of the mountain since olden times. The thrush overhears what Bilbo has to say about his trip in to meet Smaug, including the location of the dragon's weak point. Having heard this, the bird decides (apparently based on a sarcastic suggestion made by Bilbo) to fly down to Esgaroth and to alert Bard to the location of the wyrm's weak spot.

From "Inside Information":

But the hobbit was worried and uncomfortable, and they had difficulty in getting anything out of him. On thinking things over he was now regretting some of the things he had said to the dragon, and was not eager to repeat them. The old thrush was sitting on a rock near by with his head cocked on one side, listening to all that was said. It shows what an ill temper Bilbo was in: he picked up a stone and threw it at the thrush, which merely fluttered aside and came back.

The lamprey is successful because it can latch on to and weaken its prey.
The lamprey actually latches on to its victims, specifically sucking the life out of them.

Answers

Answer:

The lamprey has the ability to latch on and ultimately weaken its prey.

Explanation:

A concise statement is one that is not too wordy but is rather straightforward and retains the original meaning intended by the author. When sentences are too wordy, the real meaning being conveyed could be lost.

Concise statements are expressed in as few words are possible so as to retain the interest of the reader. This will also prevent the reader from skipping around in order to get the main point. With these in mind, the first option is the most concise statement.

Read this excerpt from The Great Fire.

When William Lee reached Goll's drugstore, he was gasping for air and frantic. In a breathless voice, Lee demanded the key to the alarm box that was mounted on the outside of the store. Bruno Goll refused to hand it over, insisting that a fire truck had already passed.

Lee had no time to argue with Goll. He was too concerned about the safety of his family, so he hurried back to them almost immediately. He got there just in time to see the fire taking hold of his neighbor's shed and fence, while the breeze blew a rain fire on his property. Two things were very clear to Lee: first, despite what Goll had said, no fire engines had arrived, and, second, his house was about to catch fire.

Why was William Lee frantic and breathless when he first arrived at Goll’s drugstore?

He was angry at the owner for refusing to sound the alarm and for lying about the fire engines.
He was confused about who had informed the firefighters of the fire and why there were trucks driving by.
He knew there was a fire burning near his home, and he wanted to sound the alarm as quickly as possible.
He knew that the fire would be massive and firefighters would not be able to control the flames.

Answers

Answer:

He knew there was a fire burning near his home, and he wanted to sound the alarm as quickly as possible.

Explanation:

The question wants us to identify why Lee was breathless when he first arrived at Goll's drugstore. Therefore, Lee could not have been angry at the owner for refusing to sound the alarm since this happened after Lee arrived at the drugstore.

Lee could not have been confused about who had informed the firefighters since Goll said a fire truck already passed.

Lastly, Lee could not have been worried about firefighters not being able to control the flames considering how a fire truck had already passed and there were no fire engines at his house.

What type of government was chosen in South Africa? a) Racial government b) Democratic government c) Non-racial democratic government d) Racial democratic government

Answers

Answer:

b) Democratic government

Explanation:

South Africa was an English colony for many years. However, in 1910, with an organization to seek independence among Africans, the British overthrew the colony system and transformed South Africa into something called a "union," which was basically the same thing as a colony, but which it allowed a small domination by the Africans. However, the movement for independence became increasingly strong, which allowed South Africa to become an independent country in 1931. After a period of political organization, it was decided that the African government would be a representative parliamentary democratic republic. Which means that the population would choose its rulers, who would represent all citizens in political matters.
