Why the Cat Always Lands on Its Feet
A gentle magician was traveling in a forest. He’d been traveling forever, it seemed. So when he spotted a tree with gnarled roots, he had to lie down among them to rest. He had just snuggled in and closed his weary eyes when a great serpent slithered out of a thicket. Had the magician noticed the snake in the undergrowth, he would have turned it into a harmless stick.
When the snake saw the sleeping man at the foot of the tree, it coiled in anger. “I will kill him!” it hissed. The snake recalled that this was the very man who had surprised it sometime earlier, just when the snake was about to dine on a tabby cat for breakfast. “Flee for your life!” the magician had cried, and the cat had scrambled up a tree just in time.
The serpent slithered closer now. It hissed its war cry as it remembered the magician’s meddling. “You will be my breakfast,” the deadly troublemaker spat, its forked tongue testing the air for a sniff of its sleeping quarry. “And when I swallow you down, you will be sorry you ever interfered.”
Now, it just so happened that the same breakfast cat had noticed the conflict from the branches high above the sleeping magician. “Arrrr,” she snarled, her little body quivering in fright when she heard the serpent’s hiss. She was slight compared to the enormous serpent. But as she watched the evil one glide toward the man, the memory of the magician’s kindness to her transformed her fear to anger. That snake would pay for preying on helpless victims! The tabby sprang for the coiled serpent like a bolt of striped lightning!
Flames shot from the serpent’s eyes as it struck wildly again and again. But the tiny cat clawed and bit with such passion that the creature soon lay dead.
The magician awoke with the snake’s dying hiss. He found the injured cat lying nearby and guessed what she had done. “Little cat,” he said, “in honor of your bravery you shall always have a home with man. And because you leaped from the high tree to kill the deadly serpent, you shall leap where you wish and always land upon your feet.” Part A
What is a theme of “Why the Cat Always Lands on Its Feet”?

write a descriptive essay
IMAGINE YOU WAKE UP IN AN UNFAMILIAR SETTING, FEELING CONFUSED AND
WORRIED. DESCRIBE YOUR THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS AS YOU TRY TO WORK
OUT WHERE YOU ARE
Answer:
Unfortunately, I cannot write you an entire essay. But I can give you a prompt and ideas.
Describe a jungle, but do not directly say you are in a jungle. This will satisfy the "trying to work out where you are" part.
Paragraph one: describe waking up, feeling the roughness of dirt and leaves under you.
Paragraph two: You realize you are in an unfamiliar place. Describe the confusion and fear.
Paragraph three: describe looking around. What do you see? Probably a lot of trees and undergrowth (ferns, vines, other plants). What do you hear? Probably the calls of birds, unlike the ones in the city. Try to be specific when describing plants ("vines stretched into the canopy above my head.") or sounds ("a twig cracked in a nearby thicket. I jumped, heartrate rising.")
Paragraph four: Describe the new fear that comes with realizing you are in a jungle. Describe what you know about the dangers of jungles: the predatory animals, the diseases you can catch. This would probably lead to a feeling of dispair, loss of hope. You can end your essay very strongly if you craft these negative emotions right, and conclude that you are lost, alone, and probably will not survive.

Now that I have described the ships in which merchants voyage to and from India, let us change the subject and pass on to India itself. But first I will tell you of many islands that lie towards the east in this Ocean at which we have now arrived. We shall begin with an island that is called Japan.
Japan is an island far out at sea to the eastward, some 1,500 miles from the mainland. It is a very big island. The people are fair-complexioned, good-looking, and well-mannered. They are idolaters, wholly independent and exercising no authority over any nation but themselves.
Which sentence best reflects the author’s subjective perspective on the people of Japan?
The people of Japan live 1,500 miles from the mainland.
The people of Japan live on an island.
The people of Japan are good-looking and well-mannered.
The people of Japan exercise no authority over other nations.

C. The people of Japan are good-looking and well-mannered

Lester Rennet pulled his own paper keyboard from his briefcase and unfolded it. "As you can see," he said, holding it up
to the tired piano at the front of the room, "your More with Les
paper keyboard is exactly to scale. It has black keys and white keys, just like a real piano-except, of course, that they make no sound when you touch them! The More with Les paper keyboard is the perfect practice instrument! No worrying about plunking out wrong notes in front of your friends! You can
practice anywhere. At the kitchen table! At Bingo Night!" Mr. Rennet pointed at me. "You can practice in the school lunchroom!"
scale \skāl\n
1. a set of points used to
measure distance 2. a
proportion of dimensions of an original and its representation
3. a device used to determine
weight 4. a graded system of ratings or ranks
Which definition best fits the way scale is used in paragraph 31?
Answer: Definition 2 : A
proportion of dimensions of an original and its representation
Explanation: This is because the paper piano was an exact copy of a regular piano, it just didn’t make any sound. So the words “original and it’s representation” from the definition is saying a copy of something.

A. 3
B. 4
C. 3*3*3*3
Explanation:
In mathematics, the base is the number that the exponent applies to, in this case 3. The exponent is the little number that is raised, in this case 4. By definition an exponent multiplies a quantity by itself, in this case 3⁴. 3⁴ means 3 multiplied by itself 4 times. In this case it means 3*3*3*3 which is equal to 81. Hope this helps you!

They drew the chair under the plum-tree, which was snow-white with blossoms and musical with bees. It was like a king's canopy, a
fairy king's
What is the meaning of the figurative language used to describe this scene?
O The blossoms of the tree make a beautiful covering over their heads
O The beauty of the tree makes it only fit for a king
O The tree is so beautiful that it cannot possibly be real.
O The area under the tree seems like a castle
Answer:
The blossoms of the tree make a beautiful covering over their heads.
Explanation:
I saw lots of answers saying that it was D, but I took the test and it said it was "The blossoms of the tree make a beautiful covering over their heads.".
I believe this is the one, since:
- The second one says it's only fit for a king, but the sentence doesn't mean that. It means that the tree was beautiful, and it would fit anyone.
-Not the third since the tree is real, but it says it isn't.
-Not the fourth (last one), since it says under the tree, it looks like a castle. The few sentences didn't exactly describe that under the tree, it looks like a castle. All it described was that it was really beautiful, since they said, "They drew the chair under the plum-tree, which was snow-white with blossoms and musical with bees. It was like a king's canopy, a fairy king's.". All of those words describe a wonderful and beautiful place!
So in conclusion, it's "The blossoms of the tree make a beautiful covering over their heads.".
Hope it helped! <3
