100 POINTS !!!!
Promptly at 8:00 a.m., the doorbell rang. Letting out another deep sigh, Paul pulled
himself up off the couch and walked to the door. Opening it, he discovered a small,
shriveled, white-haired man staring up at him with piercing blue eyes.
"Mr. Candor?" the man said in a voice that was much larger than he was.
"Uh, no, sir. My father isn't home right now. I can give you his work number if you'd
like to call him," replied Paul.
"Mr. Paul Candor is who I'm looking for," said the man. "Is that you?"
"Oh, yes, sir. That's me. You must be my tutor," said Paul, in a voice that didn't hide
his skepticism.
"Yes, I'm Mr. Valentine. Let's get to work."
Paul welcomed Mr. Valentine into the house and they sat at the kitchen table and
began to work.
When an author introduces a new character in a short story, he or she must quickly
establish the character's key traits. In this portion of the narrative, the author misses
an opportunity to develop Mr. Valentine. Rewrite this section of the story to better
establish Mr. Valentine as a complex character. (15 points)

Question 10(Multiple Choice Worth 1 points)
When ideally should parents first communicate their expectations?
Expectations don't need to be communicated; they should be apparent.
At the time of the behavior
After the consequence
O Before the behavior starts or the child is in the situation

Answers

The correct answer is D. Before the behavior starts or the child in the situation.

Explanation

Communication between parents and children is important for raising them. In general, parents transmit customs, traditions, language, and other aspects to their children. One of the most important topics is behavior because parents must communicate to children the behavior that they expect from them in different situations to prevent misbehaving. This implies parents should be clear with their expectations before misbehavior happens, for example, parents should explain to kids how to behave at a supermarket. According to the above, the correct answer is D. Before the behavior starts or the child in the situation.

What is the purpose of an essay?
A. To relate a story
B. To present facts
ООО
C. To tell history
D. To explore an idea

Answers

Answer:

D. To explore an idea.

Explanation:

An essay is any piece of writing that contains the author's argument(s). In other words, an essay is any long literary piece that discusses a single topic.

An essay can be of various topics, ranging from politics to domestic or international ideas. In general, essays are mainly about a single topic which the author expounds to make it more understandable, dissecting it into an easier and simpler explanation. We can also say that an essay is written to explore an idea, whatever the topic the author wants to or is expected to write about.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

Di na muling luluha
Di na pipilitin pang ikaw ay aking ibigin
Hanggang sa walang hanggan

Malaman mo sanang ikaw ang iniibig ko

Ang inalay mong pag-ibig
Ay di na rin aasa pa
Na muling mahahagkan

Puso kong di makalaban
Dahil minsan mong iniwan
Labis na nahihirapan

The truth is home isn't always a great big house its where you reside if its in a tent under a bridge or a mansion in Beverly hills.  So for people who travel the world never really staying anywhere long does that make the world home. Does living in a box begging for food really make you homeless. Its the type of existential question that anyone can have a different answer to it just depends who you are.
