Can anyone give me a Detailed summary of Long Road To Mercy PLEASEEE

Answers

Answer 1

Hello there,

‘Eeny, meeny, miny, moe . . .’

It is thirty years since FBI special agent Atlee Pine’s twin sister, Mercy, was taken from the room they shared as young children. Notorious serial killer Daniel James Tor, was caught and convicted of other murders, and while there’s no proof, Atlee believes he knows what happened to Mercy. Tor still resides in a high-security prison in Colorado.

Assigned to the remote wilds of the western United States, Atlee has never stopped the search for her sister, and, wracked with survivor’s guilt, she has spent her life hunting down those who hurt others. She will always ask herself, ‘Why her, and not me?’.

Now, Atlee is called in to investigate a case in the Grand Canyon when a mule is found dead with strange carvings on its body, and its rider missing. She knows about killers and perhaps understands them better than any profiler in the FBI, but it soon becomes clear that she will need to put her skills to the ultimate test in this investigation.

It seems that Atlee will now have to confront a new monster.

And face the one of her nightmares.

HOPE THIS HELPS YOU !

Kabir and his friends were returning from an punting when their car broke down in the middle of the forest. They searched the forest for an inn to stay for the night and found one. The inn belonged to a man named Samuel Dickens. He was a forestor. He told them not to come here as this area was a very haunted place. But they did not listen to him and asked if they could spend here for the night. He agreed and took them inside the house. He gave them food and told them that their beds where in the next room. They closed the lights and slept. In the middle of the night, a moaning noise was heard. Kabir and his friends heard the sound and woke up to check. They saw Mr Samuel lying on the ground and a strange creature on top of him. Kabir and his friends shrieked with horror and ran out of the house, took the car and drove away. The man in the inn had repaired their car and went inside the house when this thing attacked him. Kabir still remembers it and never went to the forest again.

Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World. Sugar was the connection, the tie, between slavery and freedom. In order to create sugar, Europeans and colonists in the Americas destroyed Africans, turned them into objects. Just at that very same moment, Europeans—at home and across the Atlantic—decided that they could no longer stand being objects themselves. They each needed to vote, to speak out, to challenge the rules of crowned kings and royal princes. How could that be? Why did people keep speaking of equality while profiting from slaves? In fact, the global hunger for slave-grown sugar led directly to the end of slavery. Following the strand of sugar and slavery leads directly into the tumult of the Age of Revolutions. For in North America, then England, France, Haiti, and once again North America, the Age of Sugar brought about the great, final clash between freedom and slavery. Which sentence best states the authors' claim in this passage? Economic demand for sugar led to political pressure to end enslavement. The growing demand for sugar made the lives of enslaved people even worse. Turning Africans into objects was important for the sugar industry to succeed. Monarchies became increasingly strong and popular during the Age of Sugar.

Answers

Answer:

A). Economic demand for sugar led to political pressure to end enslavement.

Explanation:

The first statement i.e. 'economic....enslavement' most aptly states the author's claim in the given passage as he says that 'they could no longer stand being objects themselves.' The author provides sufficient support to justify his claim by stating that 'the global hunger for slave-grown sugar led directly to the end of slavery.' The increasing economic demand for sugar eventually led to 'the Age of Revolutions and a clash between sugar and slavery' as the slaves were a crucial factor in the production of the sugar and meet the rising demands. Thus, this led to the end of slavery, and hence, option A is the correct answer.

Answer:

A). Economic demand for sugar led to political pressure to end enslavement.

1. Litter is not only ugly, but also harmful to animals in national parks
2. Millions of plastic water bottles end up in the ocean each year, adding to the millions already there and not decomposing.
3. Recycling has become easier with many public places including recycling bins right next to all garbage cans.
4. Plastic that hasn’t been recycled has extremely harmful effects to the wildlife that live in the ocean.

Answers

Answer:

1. Litter is not only ugly, but also harmful to animals in national parks

Explanation:

When writing an essay in support of a point, you have to select salient points that are consistent and relatable to what you're writing about..

Younique is writing an essay in support of recycling to reduce garbage in the ocean and therefore she has to bring points that relates to side effects of throwing garbage in the ocean, how easy it is to recycle garbage and other necessary points.

The truly odd one out is option A which says "Litter is not only ugly, but also harmful to animals in national parks".

This has no direct connection to effect of garbage in the ocean or recycling so this is the piece of evidence with the least relevance to her argument.

The rain pounded the windows, and Fredrick couldn't shake the gloom that descended on him as they drove past the baseball field. He was supposed to have a baseball game, and the coach was going to put Fredrick in as the pitcher, but it was cancelled because of rain. Instead, Fredrick pulled out his baseball cards, hoping the familiar faces of the famous players would cheer him. First, Fredrick sorted the cards by team, then by the year the card was printed. He examined each one before carefully putting it back into its plastic cover and filing it away. When he finished, the rain had stopped, and he realized that he felt better. 19. Fredrick _______ organized his cards. Group of answer choices relentlessly incorrectly alphabetically methodically

Answers

Answer:

Fredrick methodically organized his cards.

Explanation:

Relentlessly refers to doing something in an intense or harsh way. It could be an option, but there is not much in the passage to say Fredrick organized the cards relentlessly. His action is not described in any way that makes it seem harsh or intense.

Incorrectly refers to doing something the wrong way. There is no indication that Fredrick misplaced a card or did anything wrong while sorting them. This is not an option as well.

Alphabetically would mean he used the way the letters are ordered in the alphabet to organize the cards. However, we know he did not. Fredrick organized them by team and year. This is also not an option.

Finally, methodically refers to doing something systematically, in an orderly manner. As we can see, Fredrick did have a method to organize the cards. He sorted them according to certain standards. Therefore, this is the correct option to fill in the blank.

Explanation:

****PLATO WORK PLZ HELP 30 POINTS**** Evaluate the end of the story when D introduces an element of dramatic irony. Why do you think the narration switches focus to the gun after the characters leave the ruined city? As the gun parts drive toward the broken gun, what mood is created for the reader? How is this ending an example of dramatic irony?

Answers

Answer:

The ending of the story allows the events to remain open-ended. The crew leaves the planet hoping to come back, believing that the gun has been destroyed. Only the reader knows that a small army of self-repairing gadgets and an atomic warhead are moving toward the gun. Dramatic irony occurs when the reader has more knowledge about a particular outcome than the characters. So, in “The Gun,” the reader knows that the gun will repair itself, but the characters flying away are unaware of this information. This ending evokes a mood of fear and suspense as the reader realizes that the weapon of destruction will regenerate itself and will most likely strike the crew and others once they return to the planet.

Explanation:

Answer:

When Philip K. introduces the element of dramatic irony, it leaves the feeling of discontent. There wasn't a happy ending to this story because we know what might happen next. They wasn't exactly an ending because we know that there is self-repairing gadgets. The crew thought the gun was destroyed. The narration switches focus to the gun to inform the reader and not the characters. This evokes fear and uneasiness in the reader. The destructive weapon will soon regenerate itself, and will attack the crew when they return.
