Answer:
Curiosity can lead to pleasant surprises.
Explanation:
Story 1
An Interesting Day
Mark and Danny were exploring the caves in the blue-ridge mountains of Shenandoah with their dad Frank. After walking through many caves, they reached a large cave, well lit by the sun shining through a gap in its roof.
However, it seemed as if no one had entered the cave in many years. There, the three of them were surprised to find a gold-colored statue in one corner of the cave. They went closer to look at the statue. It was beautiful and had a crown on its head decorated with colored stones.
Their dad Frank, who was a historian, said, "It appears that the statue is ancient and valuable. We must inform the local museum about this. The statue could be up to 4,000 years old." Mark and Danny were thrilled and grateful to their dad for having brought them on this adventure.
Story 2
Genie and Her Kittens
Hannah and Jill were feeding a stray cat in the backyard of their home. They had named the cat Genie, and she was lapping up all the milk in the saucer and seemed very hungry. She had just eaten a whole bowl of cat food, too. Hannah and Jill were surprised. Their own cat Tabitha usually did not eat or drink so much.
All of a sudden, they heard a mewling coming from the shed at the end of the backyard. They walked up to the shed, opened the door, and were surprised by what they saw. There were three little kittens in there!
"They look so adorable," said Hannah. "They must be Genie's. No wonder she is so hungry."
"This solves the mystery of the sounds coming from the backyard last night," said Jill.

Dear Chris,
I am so glad that we all made it to the new year 2021 despite the numerous challenges of the past year. I hope your university has resumed online classes? We are now preparing for first semester examination online!
I believe that you have heard of the workshop about the life and achievements of Nelson Mandela holding in my university in two months time. The adverts have saturated the local media over the past few weeks.
I want you to attend this workshop for many reasons. First of all, you have always told me that Nelson Mandela is your hero and you want to pattern your political career after him. Secondly, this workshop is a sort of training for the next generation of political leaders. Leadership is serious business for which a person must be equipped in order to perform excellently in it. Thirdly, certain papers that will be presented at the workshop will be relevant materials to us in our study of the course "African Political History" in the coming semester.
I really hope to see you at the workshop.
Yours Sincerely,
Jude

Katya shoved her hands deep in her pockets as she walked. The cold night air seemed to push her forward, and she just let herself be rushed along. She didn't know where she was going, and she didn't care. She had just said goodbye to her best friend, Irina, and the empty city street, as cold and bleak as the far side of the moon, was no match for the emptiness in Katya's heart. Irina was moving forward in her life as a high school graduate headed for a prestigious university. Unlike me, Katya thought. I can't even imagine what I'll do next.
A bus stop on the corner of the street caught Katya's attention. The bus line had been out of service in her town for years, and she couldn't remember seeing a bus stop on this corner before. I guess it's as good a place to wait as any, she thought as she sat down on the bench. She didn't know what she was waiting for. A sign to guide her into the future, perhaps. Maybe she would just sit on the park bench and wait for the sun to come up.
Suddenly, a light flashed in Katya's eyes. She turned to see a bus pulling up to the stop. The bus was painted a plain gray, and Katya could not see a company name or destination written anywhere. Instead, it seemed as dull and blank as her future. There were no passengers on the bus—only a driver looking out at her impassively. The door opened, and Katya felt a rush of wind at her back.
"Coming aboard, miss?" asked the driver. Katya felt a chill run up her spine as she stood. She climbed aboard the bus and took a seat in the back. As she looked out the window, she could see light streaking the sky to the east. The morning light traced a pattern across the sky, and the sun's gentle hands began to change the view outside Katya's window from an empty wasteland into a bustling, friendly city. No matter what happens next, it will be a fresh start. That is just what I need, Katya thought as the bus moved toward the light.

According to Jerfferson, what has been the king's attitude toward the laws of the
colonies? Why is that attitude an important factor in the decision to declare
independence?
Answer:
He has been contemptuous; he has ignored colonists' efforts to make their own laws. He is also callous in that he reveals no concern for the colonists. ... His attitude reveals how he is unfit to be a king.
It galvanizes the colonies to feel even more resentment towards the king and strive to gain their independence.The signers of the Declaration knew that their announcement could mean war with powerful, well-equipped Britain.

It's: Pullman describes Lyra’s capture at line 24: “like a fly being trussed by a spider”. What kind of picture does this simile create in your mind?
If u can thank u very much, I think it will be take of you 5 minutes max
Answer:
This comparison creates the image of a completely helpless victim.
Explanation:
The author of the sentence shown in the question above used a metaphor to compare Lyra to a fly that was tied to a spider's web. The spider is a predator of the fly, which once trapped in the spider's web, cannot escape, becoming a completely defenseless prey that cannot be released.
In this case, the metaphor shows Lyra's weakness in relation to her captors, which she has no chance of escaping.

B. It suggests the youthful passion Aengus feels about his renewed life.
C. It reflects Aengus's disappointment in wandering for so many years.
D. It reflects the frustration Aengus feels about being idle.
Answer -
it is A because he describes it with the moon and sun
Aengus, the Celtic god of love and beauty, sings "The Song of Wandering Aengus." In Yeats' poem, however, he does not appear to be a god. He just appears to be a typical guy.
Correct option is A.
He does, after all, go fishing, be deceived, and get old like the rest of us. Aengus goes fishing in a hazel grove at the beginning of the poem. He fashions a fishing pole from a hazel stick, attaches a berry to it, and then dips it into a stream. He strikes gold and lands a trout.

What can you infer about Maggie?
What details reveal these characteristics?
How does the author develop Maggie’s character?
on:
Answer:
In the excerpt from A Good Place for Maggie, Maggie is driving away from her home in Los Angeles. Maggie describes the city as "a terrible place" full of "processed air" and "car exhaust." Maggie's description of the city develops Maggie's character as someone who does not enjoy the city and is most likely unhappy living there.
Explanation: Plato answer :)
Answer:
What I can infer about Maggie is that she's a young teen that cares a lot about her family and friends but she's unhappy living in the city of L.A and her dad died so she ran away and is going to her grandpa's place. Details that reveal these characteristics: "she had begun to think that maybe being sixteen and a half didn’t make her that smart; maybe a trip like this was a little much for her." "Dad would be proud of me. I’m doing what is right for me. Oh, I’ll miss my friends, especially Mim and Lorena. I’ll even miss Ryan." “Jase is a good enough stepfather, but I told you both how I felt about that condo in downtown L.A. and you guys went ahead and bought it. It’s a terrible place. All there is to breathe inside is processed air and outside, car exhaust.” The author uses mostly an indirect characterization to develop Maggie's character.
