3. What was one of Headlee's most valuable lessons in listening? What kind of appeal does
She make?
Answer:
One of the most valuable lessons is to breathe before responding to a message heard in a conversation. In this lesson she makes a logical appeal, showing that when you breathe you give your brain time to understand the message and respond to the height, thus creating a quality conversation.
Explanation:
Celeste Headlee has shown how we human beings have diminished our ability to be good listeners and to establish good communication and quality conversation with each other. She says that this unavailability and haste to listen is not satisfactory, does not stimulate the brain and does not allow learning that only communication is capable of establishing. Technology has contributed to making this problem worse, making conversations automatic, fast and without satisfactory interaction.
Headlee says that we have to learn to listen in order to learn to talk and the best way we can do that is to enter into conversations without haste, listening to what is said and breathing before answering. This breath promotes reasoning, the interpretation of the message received and the elaboration of a message to the height, which will be received in the same way. That way a good conversation is conducted.

STORIES OF USEFUL INVENTIONS, excerpt
By S. E. Forman
1911
THE MATCH
There never was a time when the world was without fire, but there was a time when men did not know how to kindle fire; and after they learned how to kindle one, it was a long, long time before they learned how to kindle one easily. In these days we can kindle a fire without any trouble, because we can easily get a match; but we must remember that the match is one of the most wonderful things in the world, and that it took men thousands of years to learn how to make one. Let us learn the history of this familiar little object, the match.
Fire was first given to man by nature itself. When a forest is set on fire by cinders from a neighboring volcano, or when a tree is set ablaze by a thunderbolt, we may say that nature strikes a match. In the early history of the world, nature had to kindle all the fires, for man by his own effort was unable to produce a spark. The first method, then, of getting fire for use was to light sticks of wood at a flame kindled by nature—by a volcano, perhaps, or by a stroke of lightning. These firebrands were carried to the home and used in kindling the fires there. The fire secured in this way was carefully guarded and was kept burning as long as possible. But the flame, however faithfully watched, would sometimes be extinguished. A sudden gust of wind or a sudden shower would put it out. Then a new firebrand would have to be secured, and this often meant a long journey and a deal of trouble.
In 1827, John Walker, a druggist in a small English town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. The druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. It is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. Although Walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. It could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. In a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. The match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. It would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. This was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar.
What is the main idea of this text?
Firebrands were hard to keep lit.
Nature provided fire to early humans.
The history of the match is interesting.
The match made life easier for humans.

Read the point that is being made and the illustration that follows it.
Point: Gilgamesh is a courageous leader.
Illustration: Enkidu is frightened of Humbaba and wants to turn back, but he tells Gilgamesh, "You go into the dreadful forest, you kill Humbaba and win the fame.”
Which explanation best connects this illustration to the point being made?
Enkidu also tells Gilgamesh that he “will return now to great-walled Uruk” and that all men will know he has been a coward.
Although Enkidu fears for his own life, he is thoughtless and does not necessarily fear for the lives of others.
Enkidu is deeply fearful of Humbaba, and he strongly believes that Gilgamesh has the courage and ability to defeat Humbaba alone.
This proves that Enkidu does not believe that anyone can defeat Humbaba, even if he thinks Gilgamesh should at least try.
Answer:
the answer is c
Explanation:
The explanation which best connects this illustration to the point being made is, ‘Enkidu is deeply fearful of Humbaba, and he strongly believes that Gilgamesh has the courage and ability to defeat Humbaba alone.’ Therefore C is the correct option.

There can be many types of illustrations such as diagrams can be used as illustrations, and graphs and charts can also be used as illustrations. Facts or reasoning are also illustrations. In academic writings, the use of illustration makes it more reliable and also makes it a tool for conducting research.

Incomplete question. I inferred you are referring to "Bradford's History of 'Plimoth Plantation'", by William Bradford.
Explanation:
Lines 110-116 reads;
"In ye name of God, Amen. We whose names are underwriten, the loyall subjects of our dread soveraigne Lord, King James, by ye grace of God, of Great Britaine, Franc, & Ireland king, defender of ye faith, &c., haveing undertaken, for ye glorie of God, and advancemente of ye Christian faith, and honour of our king & countrie, a voyage to plant ye first colonie in ye Northerne parts of Virginia, doe by these presents solemnly & mutualy in ye presence of God, and one of another, covenant & combine our selves togeather into a civill body politick, for our better ordering & preservation & furtherance of ye ends aforesaid; and by vertue hearof to enacte, constitute, and frame such just & equall lawes, ordinances, acts, constitutions, & offices, from time to time, as shall be thought most meete & convenient for ye generall good of ye Colonie, unto which we promise all due submission and obedience.

Ano: Dom. 1620..."
This lengthy sentence might be rewritten in a more modern way by replacing old English expressions like 'ye' with 'the' and adjusting the spellings of some words.
For example, The first five lines of lines 110 could be written;
"In the name of God, Amen. We whose names are underwritten, the loyal subjects of our dread sovereign Lord, King James, by the grace of God, of Great Britain, Franc, & Ireland king, defender of the faith, &c., having undertaken, for the glory of God, and advancement of the Christian faith and honor of our king & country, a voyage to plant the first colonies in the Northern parts of Virginia..."
