The old man says that in order for the boy to find his treasure, he will have to follow the omens. What omens do they talk about and
what does the old man give him to help him? What happens to Santiago when he gives his money to the boy to be his guide? Why
does Santiago decide to keep going in his journey?

Answer:

Santiago arrives in Tangier and sits at a bar. When he sees people engaging in local behaviors such as sharing pipes and walking hand-in-hand, he scorns the people as infidels. He worries that he can’t speak Arabic, reassuring himself only with the money in his pouch. A man of similar age and appearance as Santiago addresses him in Spanish. Santiago tells him he needs to get to the Pyramids and offers to pay him to serve as a guide. The young man explains that the route across the Sahara desert is dangerous, and Santiago needs to show that he has enough money to make the trip. The bar owner speaks angrily to the young man in Arabic, and the young man drags Santiago outside, saying the bar owner is a thief. Santiago gives the young man his money to purchase camels.

Explanation:

The two traverse a crowded marketplace and Santiago notices a sword on display. Santiago asks the young man to find out the sword’s price, but realizes the young man has disappeared. Santiago waits at the marketplace until nightfall for the young man to return and begins to cry when he realizes he’s been robbed. Santiago takes inventory of his remaining possessions. He has his book, his jacket, and the stones Melchizedek gave him. He considers selling the stones to pay for a trip back home. He asks the stones if he will find his treasure, but when he puts his hand in his pocket he realizes the stones have slipped through a hole and fallen to the ground. As he collects them, he remembers his promise to make his own decisions, and he resolves to continue his mission.

In the introduction to the guide that Facing History and Ourselves created for his film Schindler’s List, Steven Spielberg wrote of the Holocaust, “Even today the world has not yet learned the lesson of those terrible years. There are far too many places where hate, intolerance, and genocide still exist. Thus Schindler’s List is no less a “Jewish story” or a “German story” than it is a human story. And its subject matter applies to every generation.” To what extent is he describing “our century’s hatred”?

Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes
Diabetes is a disease in which the level of glucose in the blood is too high, Glucose-a
sugar needed by all cells of the body for energy-is normally transported to the cells with
the help of the hormone insulin, which is produced by the pancreas. In type 1 diabetes,
which is partly genetically inherited, the pancreas cannot make enough insulin because
its insulin-producing cells have been destroyed by the body's own immune system. Thus,
glucose accumulates in the blood. In contrast, people with type 2 diabetes can produce
insulin, but their bodies are unable to utilize it effectively. Type 2 diabetes may be caused
by lifestyle factors, such as high consumption of sugar, in addition to genetics. Type 1
diabetes has a lower prevalence than type 2, accounting for just five to ten percent of
diabetes cases. The two conditions also differ by age of onset. Type 1 diabetes typically
develops during childhood, while type 2 most commonly occurs in mid- to late adulthood.

Describe a situation when you offered help to an old person. 200 words

No!" Natalie screamed in pure anguish.
She watched her treasured ceramic piece crash to the floor of the art class, in what seemed like slow motion. The piece shattered into irreparable shards—it was going to be Natalie’s showcase in her art portfolio.
Mrs. Ledbetter approached Natalie and gave her a gentle pat on the back. "That’s too bad," said Mrs. Ledbetter, in the most soothing voice she could conjure.
Natalie was amazed by Mrs. Ledbetter’s affection. She had been her toughest teacher by far, and she was only the art teacher. She had pushed Natalie to make her best artwork when she didn’t want to push herself. Without Mrs. Ledbetter, Natalie wouldn’t be an artist.
"Look at all my hard work," said Natalie, pointing at the broken pieces. "What am I going to do? How am I going to rework a piece that took me hours to shape, carve, and glaze? There’s absolutely no way I can finish in time to bring it to my interview for college. The broken piece was crucial to my portfolio—I’m no artist without it."
Natalie and Mrs. Ledbetter sat in complete silence, turning ideas in their head until they ached. When Natalie started to get up, Mrs. Ledbetter stopped her with, "Now, just wait here. There’s no need for such negativity. Look at these pieces on the floor—I know that you can’t glue them together because it would be first, a waste of time, and second, these shards of ceramic can make something more beautiful. Just think about it."
Natalie looked at the pieces and then looked at Mrs. Ledbetter. What is she talking about? I’m no artist. There’s no way I can make something beautiful out of something that is so broken and ugly. There’s absolutely no way, thought Natalie.
Mrs. Ledbetter got up and left Natalie alone in her self-inflicted misery. The loss consumed Natalie as she stared at the floor—she had put everything into that piece. She tore her eyes away from the pieces and looked at them again. She stared intensely at the pieces and knew right away what she was going to do. She began to pick up the larger pieces with her carvings still intact, and then she rummaged through the smaller pieces for unique shapes and colors.
Natalie could absolutely do something with them—she laid the pieces out on the floor and created an image with them. It was better than she had imagined; she was going to be amazing at the interview.

How does Mrs. Ledbetter's speech affect Natalie?
A. It makes her feel miserable about the situation.
B. It inspires her to glue the broken pieces together.
C. It motivates her to find a solution to her problem.
D. It shocks her because Mrs. Ledbetter is not caring.
