2. If you sharpen both ends of your own pencil, you'll lose both your parents on the same day.
3. Walking backwards will cause you to lose a member of your family.
4. If you walk around with one shoe on, you're calling one of your parents to the grave.
5. Never walk past under someone's extended arm. If you do, you will experience no more growth spurt.
6. Pointing to the rainbow will cause you to lose a finger. In order to prevent that, one should only point a muddy finger to the rainbow.
In Haiti, when I see a rainbow, I used to stick my finger in mud before I pointed and said, "Look at this rainbow!"
7. When you're cooking rice especially, filling up your mouth with air so that your cheeks are "super" inflated will double the size of the your meal.
8. Rain on a sunny day means that the devil is having a domestic dispute with his wife.
9. Rocks of thunder: Precious shiny "rocks" are deposited on earth whenever it thunders. A person that finds such a "rock" will live a fertile, healthy, and prosperous life.
Actually, a few people in Haiti have claimed to have found some of these rocks. ( I hear that they look really shiny : -)
10. If you open an umbrella indoors, death will loom over the whole house.
11. If you eat standing up, you'll end up with a swollen leg.
12. If you walk around on your knees, you'll cause the death of one of your parents.
13. If your feet get swept by a cleaning broom, you'll never marry.
14. On your wedding day, if you let your new husband slip the ring on your finger pass the big knuckle, he will dominate the relationship.
That's why you'll see a Haitian bride use her thumb to block the ring from being slipped too far into her finger.
15. Rain on your wedding day means that your marriage will last.
16. To outlive your husband, you must wear a black pantie on your wedding day.

19. Pregnant women must satisfy their cravings immediately, if they don't, their newborns will receive a birthmark for each unquenched craving.
20. A black butterfly in your path is the precursor of bad news.
21. If a black bird flies into your home you must kill it, otherwise death will come to someone close to you. People will usually shut all doors and windows of their home to trap a black birds that flies in.
Can you just imagine the distress that some people might experience over an escaped bird?
22. People not in good health do not attend funerals. If they do, they'll be the next one to be buried.
23. If a funeral procession passing in the streets suddenly stops in front of your house, you have to quickly throw a bucket of water at the entrance of your house to prevent death from coming into your home.
Oh! My aunt used to do that a lot! In Arcahaie, we lived not too far from the cemetery. A funeral procession (which comprises of the priests, the altar boys, men carrying the coffin, followed by the family members of the deceased) often passes in front of our house. Sometimes the coffin is heavy and the men have to take a break, so the procession stops for a few seconds. When that happens it is said that the deceased is reluctant to go to the cemetery. God forbid! this should happen in front of your house. It is a big deal.
24. Ringing in the ears means someone is talking about you.
25. If your right hand itches, you're about to receive some money.
26. Severe and recurrent acid reflux in a pregnant woman means that the baby will have a lot of hair. The acidic stomach means that the baby is growing hair.
27. Pointing to a baby gourd or a baby watermelon on a tree will prevent it from reaching full maturity.
28. If you run into some kind of misfortune on New Year's Day, this same misfortune will follow you throughout the whole year.
I specifically remember trying to avoid corporal punishment from my dad on new year's day so that I won't be whipped thoughout the whole year. My friends and I used to feel so sorry for those kids that get whipped on new year's day. "There goes his luck!" we said to ourselves.

What are some examples of imagery in the poem? ABANDONED FARMHOUSE
He was a big man, says the size of his shoes
on a pile of broken dishes by the house;
a tall man too, says the length of the bed
in an upstairs room; and a good, God-Fearing man,
says the bible with a broken back
on the floor below the window, dusty with sun;
but not a man for farming, say the fields
cluttered with boulders and the leaky barn.
A woman lived with him, say the bedroom wall
papered with lilacs and the kitchen shelves
covered with oilcloth, and they had a child,
says the sandbox made from a tractor tire.
Money was scarce, say the jars of plum preserves
and canned tomatoes sealed in the cellar hole,
and the winters cold, say the rags in the window frames.
It was lonely here, says the narrow gravel road.
Something went wrong, says the empty house
in the weed-choked yard. Stones in the fields
say he was not a farmer; the still-sealed jars
in the cellar say she left in a nervous haste.
And the child? Its toys are strewn in the yard
Like branches after a storm—
a rubber cow, a rusty tractor with a broken plow,
a doll in overalls. Something went wrong, they say.
Answer:
“in the weed-choked yard. Stones in the fields”,
“He was a big man, says the size of his shoes”,
and “says the sandbox made from a tractor tire.”

Explanation:
Answer:
Its the second answer or B
Explanation:
Paragraphs are the building blocks of papers. Many students define paragraphs in terms of length: a paragraph is a group of at least five sentences, a paragraph is half a page long, etc. In reality, though, the unity and coherence of ideas among sentences is what constitutes a paragraph. A paragraph is defined as “a group of sentences or a single sentence that forms a unit” (Lunsford and Connors 116). Length and appearance do not determine whether a section in a paper is a paragraph. For instance, in some styles of writing, particularly journalistic styles, a paragraph can be just one sentence long. Ultimately, a paragraph is a sentence or group of sentences that support one main idea. In this handout, we will refer to this as the “controlling idea,” because it controls what happens in the rest of the paragraph.

Read the excerpt from Catching Sun Rays.
But there is another benefit: switching to renewable energy can create jobs. One environmental group says solar power could mean hundreds of thousands of jobs in the United States. For example, the largest solar farm on the East Coast in New York created more than 200 local construction jobs. And the farm makes enough electricity each year to power 4,500 homes!
Why does the evidence provided in the excerpt make the author's argument more effective?
It is vague.
It is specific.
It is complicated.
It is scientific.
Answer: It is specific because it talks specificly about how renewable energy benefits the economy, creates jobs, and most of all to save energy. The answer to the question is it is specific. Hope this helps you!
The correct response is - It is specific because it discusses in detail how renewable energy boosts the economy, creates jobs, and, most importantly, reduces energy use. The question has a specific response.
What is renewable energy?The energy that is derived from resources can be regenerated naturally over time and are therefore considered to be renewable. It includes energy sources like sunlight, wind, water currents, and geothermal heat. Despite the fact that the majority of renewable energy sources are sustainable, some are not.
Anything that is regenerable has an unlimited supply or may be replaced. Renewable energy sources never run out. Things that are renewable are always fresh and new because the word "re" implies "again" and the supply can never run out. This phrase frequently refers to energy.

Read the excerpt from the introduction for "On Becoming an Inventor" by Dean Kamen.
Invention is predominantly individualistic. Everything... comes from the lone worker who follows the fleeting inspiration of a moment and finally does something that has not been done before.
This quote is from the inventor of a three-phase motor, Nikola Tesla. It fits the description in every respect of Dean Kamen, the owner of more than one hundred patents.
As a young teenager in Rockville Center, New York, one of four children, whose father was a comic book artist and his mother a schoolteacher, Dean started tinkering with sound and light boxes in his bedroom, "which caused lights to go off and on, and deafening sound to come from his radio," said his mother.
Their indulgent parents allowed Dean and his older brother Barton to experiment, raising as many as one hundred live rats and to set up a workshop in their basement on Long Island. Dean stocked the basement laboratory with machinery to help create new audio/visual equipment. This led to his first patent and a sizable financial reward while still in high school.
Which line best supports the writer’s opinion that Kamen has done things that have never been done before?
