Answer:
He was leaving his wife for another women. Then she killed him. (Hope this helps!)
Explanation:
Answer:
I think the author Roald Dahl makes it clear that Patrick Maloney is not leaving his wife Mary because he is involved with another woman. He is so regular in his habits that he could hardly be seeing another woman on the side. This is good for Mary because it eliminates one possible motive she might have for killing her husband. The police could find out pretty easily if Patrick had been having an affair.
The author shows in dramatic fashion why Patrick wants out of the marriage. He feels suffocated by the claustrophobic domesticity he comes home to. He has no privacy. They sleep in the same bed. His wife is too loving, too mothering, too suffocating, too needy, too clinging. As a matter of fact, John Collier explains very clearly what is wrong with most marriages in his story "The Chaser." The old man who sells love potions and "chasers," or antidotes, tells his impetuous, lovesick young client Alan Austen:
"You will be her sole interest in life....She will want to know all you do....All that has happened to you during the day. Every word of it. She will want to know what you are thinking about, why you smile suddenly, why you are looking sad....How carefully she will look after you! She will never allow you to be tired, to sit in a draught, to neglect your food. If you are an hour late, she will be terrified. She will think you are killed, or that some siren has caught you."
The old man feels sure that his customer will someday want to kill his wife. The wife he describes to Alan Austen sounds very much like Mary Maloney. No doubt, Patrick already feels like killing her. She doesn't understand that her attentiveness is driving him away from her. Most people need privacy some of the time. As the Prophet says in Kahlil Gibran's well-known book The Prophet:
But let there be spaces in your togetherness, And let the winds of the heavens dance between you. Love one another but make not a bond of love: Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
The fact that Mary's loving devotion can turn so suddenly into murderous rage seems to indicate that there must have been some hatred hidden underneath all her slavish attentiveness. She doesn't change into a different person. Nobody can do that. She is the same Mary Maloney but she reveals feelings and cunning nobody, including herself, ever knew existed.

4. Which of the following application of Maslow's theory of Hierarchy of
Needs best aligns with its intended purpose?
Answer:
C. A parent uses Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs to decide which school might be best for her children.
Explanation:
Abraham Maslow's theory of the hierarchy of needs is based on the fact that human behavior and efforts are based or depends on motivation (what individuals hope to achieve)
Hence, in this case, the application of Maslow's theory of Hierarchy of Needs best aligns with its intended purpose, when " a parent uses Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs to decide which school might be best for her children."
The utilization of Maslow's theory in deciding the best school for her children is human behavior, and she hopes to achieve self-actualization which is pursuing goals or going to school.
Therefore, the right answer here is option C.

A Good Day for a Bad Decision
Have you ever noticed that some people always seem to make the right choices? They may be the person who always picks the right pitch to swing at, or the one who always picks the pair of shoes that quickly become a popular fad. On the other hand, some people never seem to make a good decision. They may be the kids who ride a bike down a steep hill and crash into a bush or the ones who step to the edge of a sidewalk in time to get splashed by a car. How do some always seem to be living the good life while others seem doomed to misery? Is this just a matter of luck?
While luck probably has something do with it, the better explanation may be that the two groups have differences in the development of their brains. You see, most adult humans use their cerebral cortex to make decisions. The cerebral cortex is the part of the brain in the front of your head that deals with how you perceive the world and respond appropriately. It also helps you control your impulses. This part of the brain is still growing and developing connections well into your adult years. So for young adults and teenagers, the decision-making center of the brain is not completely formed yet.
At the same time, the teenage brain is also experiencing growth in another part of the brain—the amygdala (a-mig-dala). This part of the brain is responsible for emotions. Specifically, the amygdala talks to other parts of the brain about events related to rewards and fear.
In essence, our emotional brains are having growing spurts and our impulses are out of control at the same time our cerebral cortexes are not finished growing. We simply don't have the tools to control those emotions and impulses. As a result, teenagers feel overly emotional and wishy-washy when it comes to decisions. This development cycle is one reason society doesn't consider children to be adults until after they are 18. Biologically, the teenage brain is not generally ready for adult decisions.
So the differences between those who seem to make good decisions and those who seem to make bad ones may be fewer than you think. In fact, if you study the people you think make only good decisions, you will likely find they also make some catastrophically bad ones as well. A person's ability to make a good decision increases with age and experience though we all develop at different rates. While you are young, you may want to take advantage of those around you with bigger cerebral cortexes: adults. Their advice may be just what is needed to counter your amygdala.

Answer:
C). A person's ability to make a good decision increases with age and experience though we all develop at different rates.
Explanation:
The third option i.e. 'a person's ability...rates' most aptly conveys the central idea of the given text. It displays how an individual's decision-making ability enhances as their age develops and as they gain experience in their life. This helps them in gaining the maturity to make correct choices in their life using their cerebral cortex which allows them to perceive the world better. Thus, option C is the correct answer.

Hi,
I'm writing an argumentative essay on why more american doctor should help with the uprising sickness and cardiovascular diseases and the poverty. Could someone read my intro and go over it
Thanks :)
Why is it that South Sudan and many other country's do not have proper medical care? Should more american doctors be taking action on the rising sicknesses and
cardiovascular diseases? But could this be endangering the lives of the american doctors or should we help face the uprising challenges that many south Sudanese people face unlike you and I? But unfortunately they don't have access to clean water, proper nutrition, and medical care. More doctors should help support the people of Sudan and many other country's. But with the help we could save the lives of children and adults
Answer:
hey. It is pretty good but I don't know what's the relation of Sudan and American doctors . But I think your structure is Kind a Off at the end parts. Well, I am Not A Expert but this is just my view. Thank you
write a description of a kite in flight suggest by this picture.
Answer and Explanation:
An example of a description of a kite in flight suggested by the picture would be:
Further and further away it soared, steady and noble. Its bright red just a floating dot against the indigo sky. Occasionally, a pull or two would scare it, test it. But the kite remained in flight, owning the space, sharing it only with the birds and the wind - its family. It would now and then look down at the little boy, wondering. The boy helped it fly. It was him who ran with it in hand, who gave it the initial momentum. The boy himself could not fly, so he flew through the kite. And that was enough to make him happy; and the kite was glad it could make someone happy by simply doing what it was created to do.

Select one of the Ray Bradbury stories for your response. Pick out at least three examples of text that stand out to you and demonstrate Bradbury’s skill as a writer. Use quotation marks to cite those examples. DISCUSS those examples. In your opinion, WHY are they good?
Here are some other questions to consider in your short essay: What did you think of the story? How did it make you feel? Did the story generate any sort of emotional response for you?
The response needs to be as CORRECT as possible and contain a minimum of 300 words. There is no maximum. Also, Times New Roman, 12 pt character size! No heading needed on this one.
Answer:
The writing style of Fahrenheit 451 is lyrical and descriptive. Bradbury’s poetic prose makes frequent use of similes, metaphors, and personification. For instance, near the end of the novel when Montag is floating downriver, the narrator describes the river as “mild and leisurely, going away from the people who ate shadows for breakfast and steam for lunch and vapors for supper.” Here the narrator employs figurative language to describe the spiritually malnourished city dwellers who subsist on nothing but illusions and meaningless entertainments—that is, on “shadows,” “steam,” and “vapors
Bradbury’s lyrical and adjective-heavy writing style enriches the story, endowing it with symbolic meaning. For example, Fahrenheit 451 contains a thematic preoccupation with fire. Fire appears throughout the novel, but the symbolic meaning of fire undergoes a transformation over the course of the story. Bradbury’s use of figurative language plays an important role in this transformation. At the beginning of the book, fire symbolizes the pleasure of destruction Bradbury uses one long, breathless sentence to capture the violent pleasure of setting the world on fire. Fire becomes at once an emblem of danger (the “great python”) and a mark of artistry (the “amazing conductor”). By the end of the novel, however, fire becomes a symbol not for destruction, but for life. Near the book’s conclusion, Bradbury provides an image of the sun as its own source of flame, and hence as a symbol for self-knowledge and internal drive: “And what lights the sun? Its own fire. And the sun goes on, day after day, burning and burning.” Burning no longer destroys. Instead, the perpetual fire of the sun keeps the world alive.

On the ranch in Steinbeck’s novella "Of Mice And Men", which could be described as "a world often ruled by the dollar and what it can buy," how exactly does "friendship, like love, open other vistas"? What is the relationship between friendship and dreams?
Answer and Explanation:
After reading "Of mice and Men," we can see that friendship and love promote emotional support that can bring a certain comfort and care, which allows individuals to plan their dreams and try to achieve them, since they have no money to supply them. In this case, we can say that friendship and love support individuals, allowing them to establish perspectives and try to reach them.
The book also presents a relationship between friendship and dream, showing that dreams shared between friends can be realized more easily, since they like to fight together for the same goals.

what is the best way for u to describe run-on sentences
Answer:
When two sentences are squished together
Explanation:
Typically, finding a run on sentence can be easy. "I like to write papers I could write all day everyday" do u see how it's dragged out? Adding stuff that doesn't seem necessary or just overall could be rewritten as a new sentence.
Answer:
When the person writing the sentence doesn't use any sort of punctuation in the sentence at all.
Explanation:
Run-on sentences, also known as fused sentences, occur when two complete sentences are squashed together without using a coordinating conjunction or proper punctuation, such as a period or a semicolon. Run-on sentences can be short or long. A long sentence isn't necessarily a run-on sentence.

whats the difference between active voice and passive voice
Explanation:
The Active voice emphasizes the person or agent who performs an action. The Passive voice emphasizes the receiption of the action or the action itself
active voice is when a sentence's subject is performing the action of a verb.
here is an example of a sentence using active voice:
Phil filmed the video.
in this sentence, phil is the subject.phil, the subject, is the one performing the action of filming the video.on the other hand, passive voice is when a sentence's subject receives the action of the verb being performed.
here is an example of a sentence using passive voice:
The video was filmed by Phil.
in this sentence, the video is the subject.the video, which is the subject, is being filmed by phil.some things to keep in mind:
when using passive voice, the action is being performed by the subject. this is why the video was filmed by phil in the second sentence (passive voice) as opposed to phil having filmed the video in the first sentence (active voice).whereas when using active voice, the subject is performing the action. this is why phil filmed the video in the first sentence as opposed to the video having been filmed by phil in the second sentence.i hope this helps & makes sense! i tried my best to explain but sometimes it's difficult lol but please comment with any other questions you may have and i can try to elaborate further!! :) have a lovely rest of your day <3

Can you give a paragraph on how to persuade a student to get an education?
Answer:
speak on the benefits like making tons of money, become famous depending on what career you choose, be more open minded in different situations
Answer:
Explanation:
People with higher education and varied experience are more likely to get high-paying, expert jobs. Study hard, dedicate your time and effort to acquire knowledge and reach a high level of competence if you would like to lead a comfortable lifestyle. Your credentials are what will motivate a potential employer to choose you instead of another candidate. Studying hard throughout your school and studies shows you are not afraid of hard work and are able to fulfill your goals. Employers see this as a huge advantage as they all prefer a responsible and knowledgeable workforce. Once you graduate, you can start searching for jobs that will give you the opportunity to practice what you have learned and, at the same time, secure sufficient pay for your needs.Finding a job is not always easy. You often need to compete with hundreds of other candidates for a vacant position. In addition, the lower the education level, the greater the number of people applying for the same low-paying entry-level post. However, with the right qualifications and educational background, you will increase your chances of landing a fulfilling job.
