Answer:
“ Jonah getting swallowed by a fish is really a story of Jonah being rescued by God. God did not give up on this self-serving prophet who wanted to do things his own way. If God wanted to give up on Jonah, he would have let him drown. He did not need Jonah to accomplish his purposes. God has every resource at his disposal. He could have easily used someone else to go to Nineveh, someone much more faithful, whose heart had some compassion and mercy toward others. He rescued Jonah not because he needed Jonah, but because Jonah needed him. You see, this really wasn’t about the Ninevites so much as it was about Jonah. Jonah was in need of God’s rescue – not just from drowning, but from the hardness of his own heart. God has every resource at his disposal. “

HELP AS SOON AS POSSIBALE PLEASE Read the excerpt from “The Lottery.”
Soon the men began to gather, surveying their own children, speaking of planting and rain, tractors and taxes. They stood together, away from the pile of stones in the corner, and their jokes were quiet and they smiled rather than laughed. The women, wearing faded house dresses and sweaters, came shortly after their menfolk. They greeted one another and exchanged bits of gossip as they went to join their husbands. Soon the women, standing by their husbands, began to call to their children, and the children came reluctantly, having to be called four or five times. Bobby Martin ducked under his mother's grasping hand and ran, laughing, back to the pile of stones. His father spoke up sharply, and Bobby came quickly and took his place between his father and his oldest brother.
Explain what is learned by the actions of the characters in the excerpt.
A. The lottery was a happy occasion because the men told jokes, the children laughed, and the women were able to exchange gossip.
B. The lottery may not have been a happy occasion because the men smiled rather than laughed, and the children were apparently very hesitant to join their families when it started.
C. Most of the villagers were indifferent about the lottery since it was held every year, and they already knew the outcome this time.
D. Most of the villagers were ready to do away with the lottery since it was an outdated custom, carried over from years past.

write a ballad poem
do not copy and paste!!!!
Answer:
It began on a pointy July afternoon:
I was the most smart doctor around,
She was the most talented princess.
She was my friend,
My talented friend,
My princess.
We used to nuzzle so well together,
Back then.
We wanted to natter together, around the world,
We wanted it all.
But one afternoon, one pointy afternoon,
We decided to natter too much.
Together we evicted a chip munk.
It was sharp, so sharp.
From that moment our relationship changed.
And then it happened:
Oh no! Oh no!
The next day I thought my brain had broken,
I thought my neck had burst into flames,
(But I was actually overreacting a little.)
But still, she is in my thoughts.
I think about how it all changed that afternoon,
That pointy July afternoon.
My neck... ouch!
When I think of that talented princess,
That talented princess and me.
Explanation:
Finally the day has come
Its time to start our new life

In Wiesel's opinion, why is "indifference more dangerous than anger and hatred"?
Answer:
Indifference is markedly more dangerous than other negative feelings, such as hatred or anger, because in the latter, despite wishing evil or having negative feelings about something or someone, there is an interest on the part of the person regarding that thing or person. On the other hand, in indifference, the disinterest is total, which can lead to a lack of attention to the thing that can cause harm, both in the person who is indifferent and in third parties.
We're our forefathers happier than we are
Answer:
Our forefathers were happier than us.
Explanation:
Our ancestors were religiously devout and deeply believed in god, but we youngsters have been drawn away from god by imitating the modern methods of the West. Since our ancient ancestors lived easy, religious, safe, and happy lives, we should aspire to emulate their positive qualities. They lived happy, pollution free, without any worries, they enjoy every moment of life.

Read the excerpt from Rudolfo Anaya’s essay “Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry.”
Tortillas and poetry. They go hand in hand. Books nourish the spirit, bread nourishes our bodies. Our distinct cultures nourish each one of us, and as we know more and more about the art and literature of the different cultures, we become freer and freer. . . .
I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like to sample different ethnic foods, the breads of many many groups; just as many of us enjoy sampling books from different areas of the world. I travel to foreign countries, and I know more about myself as I learn more about my fellow human beings. Censorship imposes itself in my path of knowledge, and that activity can be justified by no one.
Which phrase from the excerpt best helps the reader identify the author’s purpose?
“I know more about myself as I learn more about my fellow human beings”
“I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like to sample different ethnic foods”
“many of us enjoy sampling books from different areas of the world”
“we know more and more about the art and literature of the different cultures”
