According to Malala, how did the shooting affect her? Cite evidence in your answer.
“I think Malala is an average girl,” Ziauddin Yousafzai says about the 16-year-old Pakistani girl who captured the world’s attention after being shot by the Taliban, “but there’s something extraordinary about her.”
A teacher himself, Yousafzai inspired his daughter’s fight to be educated. At a special event with Malala in Washington, D.C., he tells NPR’s Michel Martin that he is often asked what training he gave to his daughter. “I usually tell people, ‘You should not ask me what I have done. Rather you ask me, what I did not do,’” he says. “I did not clip her wings to fly. I did not stop her from flying.”
Yousafzai has this advice for parents of girls around the world: “Trust your daughters, they are faithful. Honor your daughters, they are honorable. And educate your daughters, they are amazing.”
A year after being shot, Malala is clear about her goal. “I speak for education of every child, in every corner of the world,” Malala says. “There has been a discrimination in our society,” which she believes must be defeated. “We women are going to bring change. We are speaking up for girls’ rights, but we must not behave like men, like they have done in the past.”
Perhaps she has learned from her father’s experience. When asked what gave him a passion for girls’ education, Yousafzai points out that he was “born in a society where girls are ignored.” Living with five sisters, he was sensitive to discrimination from an early age. “In the morning, I was used to milk and cream, and my sisters were given only tea,” he says.
Yousafzai felt the injustice even more when Malala was born. He later opened a school that Malala attended in the Swat Valley. At the time, the Taliban’s influence was gaining power and both Yousafzais were firmly on their radar. “But we thought that even terrorists might have some ethics,” Yousafzai says. “Because they destroyed some 1,500 schools but they never injured a child. And she was a child.”
Malala says that the shooting has taken away her fear. “I have already seen death and I know that death is supporting me in my cause of education. Death does not want to kill me,” she says. “Before this attack, I might have been a little bit afraid how death would be. Now I’m not, because I have experienced it.”
When asked if she is having any fun now with all her campaigning, Malala laughs, “It’s a very nice question. I miss those days.” But she also says that there is another side to her than what is shown in the media. “Outside of my home, I look like a very obedient, very serious, very good kind of girl, but nobody knows what happens inside the house.” There, she says, she’s not naughty, but she has to stand up to her brothers. “It’s good to fight with your brothers and it’s good to tease them to give them advice.”
She says her little brother doesn’t really understand why his sister has so much attention. “He said, ‘Malala ... I can’t understand why people are giving you prizes, and everywhere you go people say, ‘This is Malala’ and they give you awards, what have you done?’” she says.
Malala knows the Taliban would still like to kill her, but she says she hopes to return to Pakistan one day. “First, I need to empower myself with knowledge, with education. I need to work hard,” she says. “And when I [am] powerful, then I will go back to Pakistan, inshallah [God willing].”
Answer:
According to Malala, the shooting has made her stronger and braver.
Explanation:
In paragraph 7 she says:
"have already seen death and I know that death is supporting me in my cause of education. Death does not want to kill me...Before this attack, I might have been a little bit afraid how death would be. Now I’m not, because I have experienced it.”
And so the fact that she has faced death gives her more courage to pursue her aspirations knowing what whatever the repercurssions are she is well experienced to face it.
Cheers!

Who is Gregory B. Cade? Write 250-300 words please.
Chief Gregory B. Cade is, as of over a decade ago, the United States Fire Administrator. He was voted into the position by unanimous vote on March 25, 2007. The role of Fire Administrator is part of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA, for short), which is, in turn, a division of the Department of Homeland Security, and his trial was on March 15 of the same year. This division, created in 1974 by Gerard Ford, helps to ensure the safety and efficiency of communities and, more specifically, emergency response officers (such as the police, fire department, hospitals, etc) across the United States of America. Though the group is mainly known for its work in natural disaster relief, disasters in urban areas are also under its jurisdiction. Gregory B. Cade has worked in the department of public well being and safety for well over five decades, which includes more than eight years as Chief of the Virginia Beach Fire Department and as that city’s Emergency Services Coordinator. The role Gregory B. Cade now occupies, Fire Administrator, marks him as one of the Secretary of Homeland Security's principal advisors, making Chief Cade quite an important figure in the United States government, even if the position isn't extremely well-known. Unfortunately, other than his role in government, not much else is known about Chief Cade. Regardless, however, Gregory B. Cade is nothing short of hero thanks to his decades of service and commitment to the safety and well-being of the American public, whether he be working in the field directly, or managing the department that handles it all behind the scenes.

So doom appeared to us, dark word of Zeus for us, our evil days.

Psychologies say the reason for this is because Music triggers lots of nerves in many areas of the brain. The areas according to research that is usually triggered when we listen to music are
the auditory region;the Motor region andthe limbic nerves or region. The limbic region is most associated with our emotions.

Explanation:
The government of Ghana must lift the ban on social gathering with respect to
religious activities. Argue for or against this motion.
ANSWER:
I wish to argue against this motion. Because at this time of pandemic, social distancing is a key of staying safe and reducing the spread of the Corona virus. If government should ban all social gathering activities in Ghana, it has been done inline with the WHO directives, that should be followed if we all will win this invisible enemy (Corona virus). If social gathering is still allowed, people will likely not maintain a social distancing, and this will cause a spike in the spread of the virus. This is why it is important that government bans social gathering, so as to help reduce the spread of the disease.
Religious activities should not divert our attention of staying safe, as we obey the directives of the government, because the key law in all true religion is obedience, and this is the time the government seeks everyone to abide by such obedience and maintain social distancing, by avoiding social gathering.
Read the excerpt from Catching Sun Rays. Governments and power companies know that solar power is good, so they are also building big solar power plants to keep up with demand. The best place to do that is the Mojave Desert, which covers parts of Arizona, California, Nevada, and Utah. The area gets twice as much sunlight as other parts of the United States. The Mojave is home to the largest solar power installation in the world. Based on the excerpt, which would a business person most likely include in an action plan for building a new solar power plant? finding out the best place to build a solar power plant. finding out the government's opinion of solar power. visiting the solar power installation in the Mojave Desert. visiting the Mojave Desert to see how much sunlight it gets.
Answer: finding out the best place to build a solar power plant.
Explanation:
The excerpt has already established that governments are aware of the benefits of solar power and that the Mojave desert is the best place in the United States to build a solar power installation. But there´s already one there, actually the largest one in the world. To build a new solar power plant, the Mojave Desert could be a possible location, but there´s no need to visit it to know that. Furthermore, other locations, even abroad, could be considered based on how much sunlight they get.

Which statement is true about the theme of a short story?
Answer:
Theme is the central idea of the story.
Explanation:
As Louisa May Alcott begins her duties in Georgetown, she feels conflicting emotions. Cite
evidence from the text that shows how she feels at the beginning of the new year, 1863.
Answer:
When Louisa moved to Washington, she started to work at the Union Hotel Hospital as a nurse.
Just after a few weeks after starting her job, she started to fell ill. She wrote in her journal that "bad air, food, water, work and watching are getting too much for me" and also "A more perfect pestilence-box than this house I never saw". The Union Hotel Hospital was actually a ghastly and dirty place, which was full of patients and medical workers. Moreover, the food was the same for patients and workers, which was unhealthy, repetitive and difficult to digest. These all things contributed to her illness.
But on the other side.
Even though her days were tiring and full of fatigue, she really liked it. She wrote in her journal that "Though often homesick, heart sick and worn out, I like it". She used to find her pleasure by comforting and cheering her patients.
