The Mystery of Loch Ness
By Kayden Mitchell

Of all the mysteries in the world, none has been as popular as that of the Loch Ness Monster. Perhaps the biggest mystery is whether it is convincing evidence or a simple desire to believe that keeps the myth alive.

Loch Ness is a lake in Scotland. The loch, or lake, is known for sightings of a mysterious monster. Most who see this monster, known as Nessie, describe something with a long neck and several humps above the water. Sometimes the "monster" is moving in these sightings, and sometimes it is still. Many have suggested that Nessie might be a plesiosaur (plea-see-a-soar), an aquatic dinosaur that was trapped in the loch after the last ice age.

The plesiosaur theory presents several problems. First, the plesiosaur is an air breather. Such a creature would need to surface often and, therefore, be seen more frequently. Second, it's unlikely that the same creature has lived in the loch since the last ice age. Today's creature would have to be the offspring of an original plesiosaur trapped long ago. This would suggest multiple creatures in the loch (needed to produce offspring). Again, sightings would be more frequent if this were the case.

So from a purely logical stand point, the existence of such a large and ancient creature is unlikely. But assume for a minute that it is possible. What would a plesiosaur need to live in an enclosed lake?


Tropical waters: Scientists believe plesiosaurs were warm-blooded. Like crocodiles and alligators, plesiosaurs would need to live in warm waters. The loch is very cold with temperatures averaging about 40 degrees Fahrenheit (4.4 Celsius).
Food: Like other warm-blooded creatures, plesiosaurs would need a large quantity of food. If there is a group of Nessies, then even more food would be needed. Because the loch is full of silt (underwater dust) not much light gets into the deepest areas. So the food chain, which would depend on plankton, is very weak at its base. As a result, there is probably not enough food to support such a large creature.


However, the plesiosaur theory is not the only one. Many other ideas attempt to explain the sightings and "photographs." But two separate sonar surveys of the loch have not found any evidence of a creature larger than a salmon. The last survey1, completed in 2007 by the British Broadcasting Company (BBC), involved 600 different sonar beams. Using satellite navigation systems, the team made sure every inch of the loch was searched. The team found nothing.

With cell phones and digital cameras, one would think that sightings of Nessie would increase. This has not happened. The BBC team believes the legend of Nessie has endured because people see what they want to see. To prove this, the team used a fence post, raising it before groups of tourists. Afterwards several of the tourists asked to draw pictures of what they had seen drew pictures of a monster's head.

1 "BBC 'proves' Nessie does not exist." 27 July, 2003. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/3096839.stm

Based on the essay, what makes people think they have seen something in the loch?
The many sonar studies have identified strange objects in the water.
The myth of the creature makes people imagine they have seen one.
The sightings have occurred over a very long period of time.
The simple explanations suggest reasons why a creature may have survived.

As their incomes rise, people spend a greater
C
portion of their total income on food.
As their incomes rise, people spend more on
D) food, but it represents a smaller portion of
their income.
Average annual food spending

Answers

The correct answer is D. As their incomes rise, people spend more on food, but it represents a smaller portion of their income.

The graph shows the relationship between "food spending and percent of income spent on food". In the left part, it shows the values ​​of "Average annual food spending ($) that go from 0 to 16,000. In the right part, it shows the values ​​of Percent of income spent on food" that go from 0 to 35. In the part below, five "income quintiles" are shown.

The first (lowest) quintile spends about $ 4,000 per year on food, which is 35% of income.

The second quintile spends about $ 6,000 per year on food, which is about 18% of income.

The third quintile spends about $ 7,000 per year on food, which is about 12% of income.

The fourth quintile spends a little less than $ 10,000 per year on food, which is about 10% of income.

The fifth (highest) quintile spends a little less than $ 14,000 per year on food, which is about 7% of income.

According to the above information, the reader can establish that people who have more income spend more on food. However, this represents a lower percentage of their total income. For example, people who spend just under $ 14,000 on food are spending about 7% of their income, while people who spend about $ 4,000 per year on food are spending 35% of their income. According to the above, the correct answer is D. As their incomes rise, people spend more on food, but it represents a smaller portion of their income.

There are sure images that address these qualities and they incorporate the American banner, the bald eagle, the freedom chime, the White House, the sculpture of freedom, among others.

An image, basically, is something that represents something different. The American Flag is an image since it isn't simply a piece of material with red strips and white stars, it addresses the association of 50 states under a conservative confederation.

Sociologists concentrate on images since they educate us concerning the most profound convictions of a specific culture or society.

While making an exploration about the flow populace of bald eagles in the United States, the best kind of text that Li Wei needs to peruse for his examination would be a book about bald eagle settling destinations in the United States since this text is most precise and state-of-the-art about settling locales.

A 6 paragraph essay on anything you can do I can do better

Answers

Answer:

Anything you can do, I can do better.

Let’s face it, trying to please everyone is absolutely impossible and a sure way to set yourself up for unhappiness. In the poem “The Road Not Taken” By Robert Frost he is trying to explain that to his audience about his experience with that decision. From the beginning, Frost explains that people have their own paths to take. He goes on to explain that as much as he wishes he could take the same path as another, so that they wouldn’t part, that is just something that he would not be able to do. Many times in life you meet others and even become the best of friends, or maybe its family members you were once very close with, and then suddenly you grow apart, or have a falling out, but even before that happens your paths are never quite the same. Individuality is huge, it’s an important factor in how we all decide to live our lives. Even if we were raised by the same parents in the same household with the same rules, we all end up in different places whether it be physically, mentally, spiritually; which is what Frost is trying to point out in his poem.

Throughout life we all are faced with making tough decisions. One being whether or not to keep certain people in our lives, even if at one point they were the most important person in our lives. We sometimes have relationships where things just aren’t working out or you hit a bump in the road and the option of taking another path: one that seems brighter and more hopeful, comes into play. “Then took the other, as just as fair / and having perhaps the better claim/ Because it was grassy and wanted wear.” Frost here is saying, I saw an opportunity it looked better and even though the end result might just be the same ole thing I’m used to, I’m taking that route anyways because it seems like the better decision for myself. Some people aren’t comfortable with making such decisions, some would much rather follow the trend, or stick to their culture. They don’t want to find out if the grass is greener on the other side, they’re complacent with what they have because they were raised to think that way. They were programmed to not think for themselves.

How to write a story with the ending of "That is why I would never go there again

Answers

Explanation:

That is the exact facial expression I had when I was a child. I know how it feels. That sadness, sorrow, misery and pain. As the child walked towards the garbage bin, I quietly followed his steps. The smell was unbearably foul. What is he possibly doing? Scavenging for metal tins? Or maybe plastic bottles? The next thing happened was an 'I can't believe my eyes'. That boy with patched clothes was eating the food waste right from the garbage.

I once had a tough life. Lucky for me, I was adopted by a rich family. This boy faced much more trouble than I did. I went after the child after seeing him searching from bins to bins. 'Care for some buns?,' I asked. WOAH! He turned in shock, not expecting strangers. At first the boy was confused and refused to accept my kindness, but eventually after persuading him for a few times, he took it and walked away.

Feeling unsatisfied and curious, I pursue on tracking his path. With confusion, I wonder what was he still doing by the bins. After a few questions and answers, I found out that he was an orphan and his mom is disabled.They live in a small wooden house that was waiting for it's time to collapse. He was the only hope to support his siblings of 5. His story was heartbreaking that I tears slowly rolled down my cheeks. The only thing on my mind was this kid needs help!

Luckily I have a friend who work at the public welfare center. The boy's family was supported by the government and was moved to a new house at a rural area. They begin a fresh new life there. He and his siblings was given an education. The boy did a part-time work in order to support the family finances. I could see his face becoming radiant day by day.

I would visit them twice a month to check if they are comfortable with the new life. Turns up there is nothing to be worried about as result was positive. His family was starting to adapt to the new surrounding. His determination and 'never giving up' actions had helped his family survived. Before I left after my last visit, he thanked me. I could barely heard him saying 'Well, with everything that happened, I hope that I will never face sadness again'.

B. would hang
C. may hang
D. ought to hang

Answers

Answer:

6.  B. is keeping  

7.  B. had to ask  

8. D. ought to hang

Explanation:

In the given sentences, the correct tenses to use depends on the structure and form of the individual sentences. This means that the use of a certain verb tense will be different for all of the sentences.

The correct tenses for the given sentences are as follows-

6. Apparently, the man across the road is keeping his car after all because he took down the for-sale sign a week ago and he is still driving to work.

Here, the tense used is present continuous tense because the event or action is still occurring in the present.

A: What were you doing at the bank yesterday?

B: I had to ask my bank manager for a loan to repair our house, and luckily, I managed to get it.

Here, the use of the simple past tense signifies an obligation that has to be done, thus the use of the modal verb "had to".

8. You ought to hang your jacket on a clothes hanger and not leave it on the chair. You'll crease it!

Here, "ought to" is a semi-modal verb that signifies a duty, or something that is necessary to be done.

Thus, the correct answers are options B, B, and D.

The theme of appearance and identity is the foremost and recurring idea in the short story "The Nose" by Nikolai Gogol. The story follows the character of Major Kovalyov and his efforts to retrieve his lost nose.

The human attachment to appearance is an important theme in the story. This is because when Major Kovalyov discovered that his nose had 'escaped', he did everything he could to get it back. When he initially found his nose missing, he hid his face while going out, dreading meeting anyone he might recognize. He even went to the newspaper office to place an ad about his missing nose.
