Question
"They killed him, Diego! I don't know how they did it, but they killed your brother!"
I dropped the smartphone and its screen shattered as it hit the ground. My mother's frantic voice was still coming out of the speaker, but I didn't hear her. My brother was dead. My stupid Invincible brother, who had survived buildings collapsing on him, trucks crashing into him, and tanks rolling over him, was dead. I wasn't prepared for this. No one could be prepared for this. Sure, everyone knew there were just as many supervillains as superheroes in the world, if not more, but I didn't think villians could win. I never thought they could defeat the likes Ultraguy or lady Dervish or MacWolfen. I definitely did not think anyone could defeat my brother, the hero known as Impervious.
I wracked my brain, trying to figure out if Javier had ever mentioned having a weakness. The likelihood that he was killed by some sort of alien technology was roughly zilch. Even though comics had come to life with the appearance of super-powered humans over a decade ago at the turn of the century. The science fiction of extraterrestrial life was still just that: fiction.
As long as I could remember, Javier had been a picture of perfect health. He wasn't just an invincible on the outside, his insides seemed immune to damage or infection as well. He'd never been sick, never gotten so much as a scratch from crashing his bike, and never broken a single bone. I don't know how anyone could hurt him, much less kill him. He'd even survived being at ground zero of a nuclear detonation.
Horror washed over me as I was shaken from my thoughts by a terrifying realization: what powerful evil could we be facing that could defeat my brother? Even worse, If impervious couldn't beat it... who could?

The story of King Lear and his daughters was a popular one during the reign of Queen Elizabeth. At least a dozen available books offered the story to anyone wishing to read it, by the time Elizabeth died. The characters were undeveloped in most of these stories, however, making the story a simple narrative that stated an obvious moral. When he began work on Lear, perhaps his greatest tragedy, Shakespeare must have had several versions of this story available to him. He turned the characters into credible human beings with complex motives, however, even though they were based on the stock figures of legend.
Answer:
During the reign of Queen Elizabeth, the story of King Lear and his sons was very popular and relevant to most Englishmen who knew the course of this story well.
The popularity of this story inspired several authors, creating at least a dozen books available to anyone curious, which remained even after Queen Elizabeth's death.
However, the characters in these books had little personality and were underdeveloped, making the story obvious and not arousing readers' excitement.
Shakespeare had access to these books and probably used them to write his greatest tragedy, King Lear.
Providing a completely new construction and outfit to the characters, Shakespeare show them as credible, complex characters, full of layers and motivations that excited the audience.
Explanation:
The above excerpts were written according to what was asked in the question above, adding an appropriate topic and an appropriate final emphasis.
The excerpts reveal Shakespeare's relevance in the new guise and presentation of King Lear and his daughters, taking a story that was very demotivating and boring in something complex, stimulating, non-linear and totally different from what has been seen so far, consecrating Rei Lear as one of Shakespeare's greatest works and reaffirming the talent in creating characters and narratives, which he possessed.

What did they celebrate at the House of the Old? (The giver)
Answer:
The Ceremony of Release is celebrated for the elderly at the House of the Old.
Explanation:
Jonas goes to the House of the Old because Asher and Fiona are there. He is spending his last volunteer hours before the Ceremony of Twelve with his friends. The House of the Old is “a serene and slow-paced place” (ch 4, pp. 28-29). Larissa, the old woman Jonas helps bathe, tells him about the Ceremony of Release celebrated for a man named Roberto.
"Well, there was the telling of his life. That is always first. Then the toast. We all raised our glasses and cheered. We chanted the anthem. He made a lovely good-bye speech. And several of us made little speeches wishing him well. (ch 4, p. 32)
Larissa explains that she is not sure what happens during the actual release. He just goes through a door, and is never seen again. Jonas does not find out until later that release means death by lethal injection. When he finds out what release actually means, he is very upset. That is when he decides to leave the community.

Ok sooo I'm doing a scary story contest for my school and this is the story so let me know what you think
Don't turn around
I was in the woods camping with a few of my friends, Eating smores and telling stories. My best friend, Allison, said she had to go to the bathroom, so she went into the woods. After 30 minutes, we started getting worried that something had happened to Allison, so one of my other friends, Emma, went to go check up on Allison. About 5 minutes later, we heard a bloodcurdling scream and then saw Allison coming back. "Where have you been?" I asked. "What are you talking about? I just went in the woods to use the bathroom." Allison replied. "Well, where is Emma?" I said. "What do you mean, I didn't see Emma?" Allison and I kept trying to figure out where Emma was when all my friends and I decided to go look for her. Everyone except, Allison. "I'm not going back in those woods, it gives me the creeps." said Allison "Ok fine, just stay in the tent with your phone on you," I replied." "Ok," said Allison. So my friends went into the woods looking for Emma. As we were looking for her, we found what looked to be a piece of yellow cloth, on a tree branch. I put it in my pocket and continued searching for Emma. After about an hour of calling Emma and trying to reach her on her phone, we stumbled across some sort of abandoned shack. When we got to the shack we realized 2 out of 6 of us were missing. We decided to split up in the shack and see if we could find our missing friends. We thought we had found nothing and were about to head back when we heard my friend, Malissa, scream. We ran into the room she was in to find nothing in there but a blood written letters on the wall which read: DON'T TURN AROUND...
I looked behind me to see that all my friends were gone
I ran out of the shack and back to the campsite, but when I got there, no one was there. The tents were all gone and the fire was burned out. I called out for Allison, but nothing. I reached into my pocket and look at the yellow cloth I had found earlier. I remembered that Allison was wearing a yellow sweater the same shade as the cloth and thought, maybe she ripped her sweater? But then I thought, when Allison came back, she was wearing a black sweater. So then who came back from the woods, and where was Allison?
I love it! This is amazing!

Letter writing to a friend narrating the accident that almost took my life
Answer:
Number 12 Admiralty Avenue
New Jersey.
3rd October, 2020.
Hello Mark, how are you doing? Trust you're doing well, I wish I can say the same for me.
Mark, I would have been a dead man, you would have been mourning your close pal.
I was involved in an accident two days ago on my way to work. I was sitting in front, while my boss Juan was driving and smoking pot, well, we both were.
Normally Juan is a careful driver who obeys traffic rules and doesn't overspend, even when he's smoking pot but that day was quite different.
We were on the highway when he started to speed up the car, I asked him if he was late for an appointment and he said no, while laughing in a funny way, that should have been my first cue.
Not more than two minutes later, we had a head-on collision with a stationary vehicle. Luckily for us, no one was inside the car, but the vehicle was busted up. Juan is still in the hospital, but I required twelve stitches. The story could have been a lot different. I'm grateful I'm alive.
Greet the wife and kids for me.
Love,
Antonio.
What kind of weather system encourages a thunderstorms to develop
Answer: Low pressure weather systems. Warm wet air begins rising into the air. The higher it rises, the cooler it becomes. Water vapor in the air forms drops.
Explanation:
Answer:
Low pressure weather systems.
Explanation:
Warm wet air begins rising into the air. The higher it rises, the cooler it becomes. Water vapor in the air forms drops. This process is called condensation. The drops join together to form rain, sleet snow or hail. For a thunderstorm to form, the air has to be full of moisture. Next, there must be an approaching cold front. Finally the warm air that rises must be warm enough to stay warmer than the air that it passes through. When these three conditions are met, clouds form and a storm begins.
In paragraph 12, Turkle begins an extended metaphor: little “sips” of online connection. What does Turkle's metaphor describe?
Answer:
Professor Sherry Turkle's little "sips" of online connection is a metaphor that describes the little "pieces" of conversation that we are having by using technological devices.
Explanation:
MIT Professor, Sherry Turkle, PhD, and a licensed clinical psychologist, with a joint doctorate in sociology and psychology, notes that people are now avoiding the necessary conversations that we ought to be having with one another because we are "plugged-in" to various technological devices. In her write-up in the New York Times of April 21, 2012 titled "The Flight from Conversation," Professor Sherry Turkle urges people not to "sacrifice conversation for mere connection." Since we are technology-enabled, she declares that we should make the best use of it to remain conversationally connected to others whether they are near or far, but must still bring ourselves to enjoy the indispensable face-to-face conversations with our fellow human beings.
