Ecclesiastes 3:3-8
3 For everything there is a season, and a time for every [a]purpose under heaven: 2 a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; 3 a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; 4 a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; 5 a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; 6 a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; 7 a time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; 8 a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace.
Q: In the passage from Ecclesiastes, what do you think the phrase “a time to cast away stones” means? What does “gather stones together” mean? What modern figures of speech would you use to express these ideas?
PLZZZZZZ HELP.
Answer:
gather stones means i think like gather memories and lose memories
Explanation:
Answer & Explanation::
Chapter three of Ecclesiastes is about how there is a time for everything. 3:5 KJV "a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together;" is likely referring to an ancient custom of destroying a farmers field by throwing many stones at it. The Bible is often very literal, sometimes it is hard to tell due to it being written in a very different time. This is why it is very helpful to know who wrote the book and when they did.

Throughout your entire story writing process, you will likely ask your self many questions along the way. While crafting the setting of your story, come up with three questions that you feel would be the most important questions to consider in order to craft an effective and purposeful plot. Briefly explain why each question is important
Answer:
What is the period of time in which this story takes place? Where is this story taking place? Is this an urban or rural environment?Explanation:
The scenario is one of the most important elements of a narrative, because it allows the reader to situate himself within the story, in addition, the scenario can pass on a lot of information that helps to understand the other elements that make up the plot.
One of the main factors of the scenario that the author must determine is the period of time in which the story takes place. This determines whether the scenario is modern or old. This can influence the way the characters act and think, as well as influence the clothes, the houses, the way the characters speak and even the language present in the story. This type of influence can also be seen when the author determines where that story takes place, which in addition to what has already been mentioned, can influence the cultural aspects and habits of the characters.
Lastly, it is important to determine whether the scenario is urban or rural, this can change the whole history since the elements that make up the urban scenario are totally different from those that make up the rural scenario.
How does the perspective of Henry Stanton differ in the two accounts of the World Anti-slavery Convention?
Use text evidence to support your response.
Answer: The Society for the Abolition of the Slave Trade was principally a Quaker society founded in the eighteenth century by Thomas Clarkson. The slave trade had been abolished throughout the British Empire in 1807. In August 1833 the British government passed the Slavery Abolition Act, advocated by William Wilberforce, which abolished slavery in the British Empire from August 1834, when some 800,000 people in the British empire became free.[5]
Similarly, in the 1830s many women and men in America acted on their religious convictions and moral outrage to become a part of the abolitionist movement. Many women in particular responded to William Lloyd Garrison's invitation to become involved in the American Anti-Slavery Society. They were heavily involved, attending meetings and writing petitions. Arthur Tappan and other conservative members of the society objected to women engaging in politics publicly.[6]
Given the perceived need for a society to campaign for anti-slavery worldwide, the British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society (BFASS) was accordingly founded in 1839.[2] One of its first significant deeds was to organize the World Anti-Slavery Convention in 1840: "Our expectations, we confess, were high, and the reality did not disappoint them."[7] The preparations for this event had begun in 1839, when the Society circulated an advertisement inviting delegates to participate in the convention.[2] Over 200 of the official delegates were British. The next largest group was the Americans, with around 50 delegates. Only small numbers of delegates from other nations attended.[2]
Benjamin Robert Haydon painted The Anti-Slavery Society Convention, 1840, a year after the event[6] that today is in the National Portrait Gallery. This very large and detailed work shows Alexander as Treasurer of the new Society.[8] The painting portrays the 1840 meeting and was completed the next year.[1] The new society's mission was "The universal extinction of slavery and the slave trade and the protection of the rights and interests of the enfranchised population in the British possessions and of all persons captured as slaves."[8][9]
The question of women's participation
The circular message, distributed in 1839, provoked a controversial response from some American opponents of slavery. The Garrisonian faction supported the participation of women in the anti-slavery movement. They were opposed by the supporters of Arthur and Lewis Tappan. When the latter group sent a message to the BFASS opposing the inclusion of women, a second circular was issued in February 1840 which explicitly stated that the meeting was limited to "gentlemen".[2]
Despite the statement that women would not be admitted, many American and British female abolitionists, including Lucretia Mott, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and Lady Byron, appeared at the World Anti-Slavery Convention in London. Wendell Phillips proposed that female delegates should be admitted, and much of the first day of the convention was devoted to discussing whether they should be allowed to participate.[2] Published reports from the convention noted "The upper end and one side of the room were appropriated to ladies, of whom a considerable number were present, including several female abolitionist from the United States." The women were allowed to watch and listen from the spectators gallery but could not take part.[6]
In sympathy with the excluded women, the Americans William Garrison, Charles Lenox Remond, Nathaniel P. Rogers, and William Adams refused to take their seat as delegates as well, and joined the women in the spectator's gallery.
Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, who eight years later organized the Seneca Falls Convention, met at this Convention.

AUDIENCE ENGAGEMENT DELIVERY PRESENTATIONS TIPS
The Secret to Writing a Call to Action in A Persuasive Speech
BY NANCY DUARTE | 5 MIN READ
how to write a call to action that resonatesA well constructed and delivered presentation changes minds and ignites action.
Yet, there’s a key part of a presentation that doesn’t get mentioned enough—the call to action or CTA—and, a clear CTA creates a critical turning point in your presentation (or any other form of persuasive communications too).
The call to action which comes right before the end of a persuasive speech is where you clearly tell the audience a role they can play after they leave your talk. The CTA gives audience members concrete tasks to tackle, and these tasks are ones that must be completed in order to bring your ideas to fruition. And, it’s a key part of what makes your speech persuasive.
An audience might be thoroughly gripped by your narrative and convinced to believe what you do–but if they leave not knowing what they are supposed to do with your ideas, your presentation will have been–essentially–fruitless.
Because CTAs are such an important part of a presentation, it’s essential to make sure that the one you deliver lands with the people hearing it. The way to ensure that you write a call to action that persuades is to keep in mind that one size does NOT fit all—and you’ve got to tailor your CTAs.
People respond to different types of calls to action based on their temperaments, daily activities, goals, and more. So, it’s important to get to know who is in your audience before you decide how you’re going to deliver their post-talk “to-dos.” Once you do, you can ensure your call actually gets a response.
