The Stranger on the Bridge
The big Town Hall clock was striking midnight when Frank began to
cross the bridge. The night air was cold and damp. A low mist hung over
the river and the street-lamps gave little light.
Frank was anxious to get home and his footsteps rang loudly on the
pavement. When he reached the middle of the bridge he thought he
could hear someone approaching behind him. He looked back but could
see no one. However, the sound continued and Frank began walking
more quickly. Then he slowed down again, ashamed of himself for
acting so foolishly. There was nothing to fear in a town as quiet as
this.
The short, quick steps grew louder until they seemed very near. Frank
found it impossible not to turn round. As he did so, he caught sight of a
figure coming towards him.
After reaching the other side of the bridge, Frank stopped and
pretended to look down at the water. From the corner of his eye he could
now make out the form of a man dressed in a large overcoat. A hat was
pulled down over his eyes and very little of his face could be seen.
As the man came near, Frank turned towards him and said something
about the weather in an effort to be friendly. The man did not answer
but asked gruffly where Oakfield House was. Frank pointed to a big
house in the distance and the stranger continued his way.
The inquiry made Frank suspicious because he knew that the inhabitants
of Oakfield House were very wealthy. Almost without realizing
what he was doing, he began following the stranger quietly. The man
was soon outside the house and Frank saw him look up at the windows. A
light was still on and the man waited until it went out. When about half
an hour had passed, Frank saw him climb noiselessly over the wall and
heard him drop on to the ground at the other side.
Now Frank's worst suspicions were confirmed. He walked quickly and
silently across the street towards a telephone-box on the corner.

Answer:
In 1984, "War is peace" refers to the idea that by placing the nation in a constant state of war, individuals are motivated to ignore their discontent with their government, thus ensuring an unending domestic peace. "Freedom is slavery" refers to the fact that absolute freedom can lead to a life pursuing pleasure. "Ignorance is strength" can be understood as being similar to "ignorance is bliss." If one is not concerned with truth, one's existence assumes an unreflective contentment.

Good morning professors! I’m Thomas Hon, from xxxx high school. I am honored to have the opportunity to participate in today’s interview. People always I am an outgoing person, I have many interests, and I am willing to try new things. In school, I joined many recitation competitions when I was younger.

In the club, visiting elderly people living alone is my routine work and I have developed to be a good listener. All in all, I have really gained a lot from visiting the elderly, including some basic information about volunteer service and first aid knowledge , which made me more responsible and careful.
I want to major in Department of Government and Public Administration. I have always been very interested in the management of the government, and I want to have a better understanding how the government uses resources most effectively to provide the most suitable public services to the society.
As I know, Macau university provides excellent courses for the students to equip them with professional knowledge in this field. I do hope I can have the chance to study in your school. If I have the chance to be your student, I believe I can adapt to the new environment as soon as possible no matter what difficulties I will meet. In addition, I want to join different activities and join some clubs to broaden my horizons. After my graduation , I hope to contribute myself to the community with what I learn on the school. That’s all about me. Thank you very much.

How can I use different type of paragraphs in an academic essay?
Answer:
Most paragraphs in an essay have a three-part structure—introduction, body, and conclusion. You can see this structure in paragraphs whether they are narrating, describing, comparing, contrasting, or analyzing information. Each part of the paragraph plays an important role in communicating your meaning to your reader
Explanation:
Honestly, as someone who loves (and does well in) English, I say give as much variety as possible. Remember that you can't use 1st or 2nd person pronouns, casual language, or contractions. Make it interesting for the reader by switching up the flow, but keep it in a logical order. Try not to use the same phrases over and over. Also, teachers love narrative in-text citations, pus they're less work to make.
P.S. I really hope this helped luvv but, if not, good luck!!

Which lines from Walt Whitman's "O Captain! My Captain!" belong to the praise stage of the elegy?
O Captain my Captain our fearful trip is done,
The ship has weather'd every rack the prize we sought is won,
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring
But O heartl heart heart!
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;
Rise up-for you the flag is flung-for you the bugle trills,
For you bouquets and ribbon'd wreaths—for you the shores a-crowding
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning,
Here Captain! dear father!
This arm beneath your head!
It is some dream that on the deck
You've fallen cold and dead.
My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still,
My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will,
The ship is anchor'd safe and sound, its voyage closed and done,
From fearful trip the victor ship comes in with object won;
Exult O shores, and ring O bells!
But I with mournful tread,
Walk the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
