Answers

Answer:

Its about a mad lady

Explanation:

Why it just is

breaks from the blue-black

skin of the water, dragging her shell

with its mossy scutes

across the shallows and through the rushes

and over the mudflats, to the uprise,

to the yellow sand,

to dig with her ungainly feet

a nest, and hunker there spewing

her white eggs down

into the darkness, and you think



of her patience, her fortitude,

her determination to complete

what she was born to do----

and then you realize a greater thing----

she doesn’t consider

what she was born to do.

She’s only filled

with an old blind wish.

It isn’t even hers but came to her

in the rain or the soft wind

which is a gate through which her life keeps walking.



She can’t see

herself apart from the rest of the world

or the world from what she must do

every spring.

Crawling up the high hill,

luminous under the sand that has packed against her skin,

she doesn’t dream

she knows

she is a part of the pond she lives in,

the tall trees are her children,

the birds that swim above her

are tied to her by an unbreakable string.

—“The Turtle,”

Read the excerpt from The Dark Game,
Why was Hall concerned that the Germans would learn
about the British reading their secret messages?
bc
Arthur Zimmermann had no idea that "Blinker" Hall had
read his secret message. But now that Hall had read it,
what could he do with this information? On one hand, he
believed that President Wilson, faced with the
information in the telegram, would declare war on
Germany. On the other hand, to share the telegram with
Wilson would surely alert Berlin that the British had been
reading their secret messages. As he walked back to his
office, Hall considered ways that he could share the
intelligence in the Zimmermann telegram and establish
its authenticity without letting Berlin know that Room 40
had intercepted and read hundreds of their secret
messages
O The Germans would begin reading British secret
messages to get revenge.
O Reading an enemy's secret messages is against the
codes of war.
O The Germans would then find a different way of
transmitting their messages.
O This knowledge would make the Americans
sympathize with the Germans.

Write three full paragraphs on Effectiveness of Advertising and how it affects teens.

Answers

Answer:

Find the explanation below.

Explanation:

Advertising is a means of communication employed by the sellers of a product or service to influence potential consumers and to inform them of the features and benefits of the product/service. Advertising is very effective as it creates awareness of the product, and helps the buyer see how the product can help him.

This medium of communication is especially effective for teens as they are easily influenced and enticed by the things they see. Colorful advertisements that are tailored to the needs of teens can increase their desire for a product and eventually make them buy it.

Teens love activities that involve a great deal of energy. When energy drink producers incorporate sporting activities into their advertisements, teens are easily drawn to them and can then be converted to consumers of such drinks.

Meteorologists can't predict weather perfectly because it's very tricky to do so. It's hard to find a reliable forecast of a general condition and trend of a weather.
