Answer:
The theme that these stories share is that every desire has a price. What makes "The Monkey's Paw" different is that even after paying a terrible price for the wish that was made, the White family continues to make wishes.
Explanation:
Stories about magical and mystical beings who can fulfill desires usually revolve around the theme that these desires must be made with great responsibility, as all magic is not free and every desire has a price to be paid and these prices do not are good.
The price of the desire to receive a large sum of money, which the White family desired, was the death of the family's son.
Even after this horrible price, the White family continues to prove inconsequential and makes another order, regardless of the price that would be paid.

"the robe of feathers" USA test prep
Answer:
In this beautiful excerpt from The Robe of Feathers, we can see the description of a fisherman going fishing at night and returning to his home (Mio Strand) at dawn. When he was on his way home, he felt a warm wind, a delicious fragrance of flowers that were floating in the air, and he heard a really sweet music, and he thought that he was perhaps lost because his home was never that beautiful. He even thought he could be death and be in the Land of Yomi, so we can deduce that Yomi is a beautiful place one go when one die (like Heaven).

Read the summary of "The Beginnings of the Maasai.”
In "The Beginnings of the Maasai,” the daughter of the Maasai explains the relationship between the Maasai and their sky god Enkai. She explains how a volcanic eruption sent Enkai and the cattle into the sky. In order to save the cattle, Enkai created a giant tree that allowed them to walk back to earth. Then, Enkai entrusted Neiterkob, the narrator’s father, and his tribe to care for the cattle. As a result, the cattle are sacred to the Maasai, and the Maasai maintain a close connection with Enkai.
Is this an effective summary of the story?
B. Yes, because it includes key ideas from the beginning, middle, and end, and it explains the conflict and the resolution.

Answer:
???? what
Explanation:
You're Aces by J. Robbins "Oh, good, you're all here," said Pola as she walked into the community theater. She began handing out copies of her script to the assembled actors. "This is a lot to memorize," remarked Gerhardt, flipping through the pages. "Neville, your character's name is Rhombus Fairchild. Boy, I bet he was picked on as a kid." "You're Aces—what kind of title is that?" Neville asked. "The play takes place in the 1920s, Neville," replied Pola irritably. "People used catchphrases like that back then. It means 'You're the best.' " "If the play takes place in the past, why are the main characters fighting giant evil robots in the third act?" asked Nadezhda. Gerhardt and Neville gasped in surprise and started reading the script with renewed interest. "Cool! I get to fire a laser gun," bragged Neville. "Oh, man!" Gerhardt groaned. "My character gets killed at the end of Act III. Death scenes are the worst." "Quit complaining, everyone," exclaimed Pola. "I had to write this by myself in two days while working a full-time job. It may not be Shakespeare, but it's good enough for community theater. I think we should just do the best we can with what we've got." "That's a terrible attitude," Nadezhda said. "The proceeds from this play will be donated to charity, and I think we should try our hardest to give people their money's worth. Why don't we all work together to write a new script?" "Fine!" Pola yelled. "I'll let you guys take over the play, and I'll save my efforts for people with better taste in entertainment." The three actors watched in amazement as Pola stomped out of the theater. "Whoops," said Nadezhda with an embarrassed smile. "I forgot that she hates for anyone to question her talent as a writer." "I'm just sad I won't get to wear a jet pack and use phrases like 'You're the bees' knees,' " Neville laughed. "I thought doing a death scene was bad," said Gerhardt. "If we don't get a script put together by tonight, we'll all be in serious trouble." Nadezhda grabbed a notebook from her purse. "This will be a snap," she said confidently. "What's a good topic for a play?" "I know!" declared Gerhardt. "Neville and I will be lawmen sent from the future who try to stop a giant monster from destroying Dubuque, Iowa." "Well, it is original," Nadezhda replied slowly. "But how would we create a giant monster on our $10 prop budget?" "Good point," admitted Gerhardt. "Here's an idea," said Neville. "What if Gerhardt and I play Elvis and Abraham Lincoln, who have been brought back to life by scientists. We use our skills to defend the president, played by Nadezhda, from the cast of the musical Cats, who have been turned into vicious zombies." Neville's voice trailed off as he realized that both Nadezhda and Gerhardt were staring at him with their mouths open. "That's very ambitious," Nadezhda finally said. "I think it would be a little difficult for three people to perform onstage, though." "You're probably right," said Neville. "I hate to say it, but our ideas are terrible," Gerhardt remarked. "What are we going to do?" The three actors dashed off the stage and hurried outside. "She's over by her car!" exclaimed Nadezhda. "Let's go get her. I'm not too proud to beg; are you guys?" "No way," replied Gerhardt. "As far as I'm concerned, death scenes are the bees' knees."Drag each tile to the correct location on the image. Each tile can be used more than once. Match the trait with the character from the passage that it best describes. Nadezhda Gerhardt Neville
Answer:
The character Neville displays the traits "excitable" and "visionary." Early in the story, he is excited by the idea of getting to fire a laser gun, and later in the play, he comes up with a visionary idea for a new play. The character Gerhardt displays the traits "disappointed" and "flexible." When he finds out his character dies, he is disappointed. He shows that he is flexible when he recognizes that his idea may not work out. The character Nadezhda displays the traits "realistic" and "resourceful." She drives the group to come up with a solution to the problem of losing Pola's support, which shows her resourcefulness. She demonstrates that she is realistic when she helps the other players realize that grand ideas will not be achievable with their small budget.
