20 Points. I am currently writing a novel, and I need to have your honest opinion of the beginning. Not, this is a backstory of how the character Winter got into where she is currently in chapter one. Please give an honest opinion.


Let me tell you a story, starting from the beginning.


"No no no no no no no!" Winter raced through he woods trying to find a safe place to hide.


There was no place to hide. She was alone.


She couldn't turn back, because behind her was a killer. A killer who had slaughtered her entire family, and is now after her. She is scared, hurt and desperately trying to get away. The killer was a demon, and she was human. There was absolutely no way she could outrun him, but she could try. Winter was a survivor. And she strives to survive any situation, even insane demonic ex's named Cain.


So there she was, running for her life from the man who trapped her and promised her eternal suffering so long as she still existed. So she stops and hides in a hollowed out tree. She knows she is not safee, she never was safe to begin with. so she just sits there and waits. She's only human, so she can only run for so long. Her legs are tired, screaming at her in agony. And her heart is pounding right out of her chest.


"Winter~ Come on out my snowflake, I'm not going to hurt you, I just want to see you" She could hear his voice echoing, his voice alone sent shivers through her. The voice of a psycho that wanted to see her suffer. It terrified her and she constantly wondered why it was her he went after.


"WINTER! I know you're hiding, i can't hear your footsteps anymore." He was close "Come. out. now." Her hear rate increased ten times over and she struggled to breathe, she was having a panic attack. She was crying, she let all the grief of what had just happened sink in. She let the fact of her impending doom sink in, and she cried. Then she saw him, he was right in front of her, she continued to cry softly, letting out pained whispered screams. He yanked her out by her arm and held her arms tight and just smiled at her.


"Got you now little snowflake. It's time to bring out the sun so you can melt away." She stared in his eyes, shaking her head no, she couldn't speak, she couldn't move, and she was scared as hell. There was nothing she could do. So he dragged her back to her house, the same house that he turned to a slaughterhouse for her family.


In the living room where her little brother lied mangled in the corner, he let her go. She immediately collapsed to her knees staring at the ground in fear, disbelief and pain. She couldn't get up and run because her legs were tired and practically useless as of now. She was useless.


"Why so grim love? You did this to yourself. You and your little ways that got me to fall in love with you. A sheep and a ravenous demon. How'd that turn out for you?" Cain grinned. She didn't answer. she just kept quiet.


"Well then, you must know what time it is now don't you?" She did. He was going to send her to a hell. A world she knew nothing of, a world full of danger that she would be trapped in, for eternity. She did not move, she just waited for her fate to come.


Now, I know you're wondering, 'Why would anyone wish anything like this upon another living being?' Well, let me give you a few simple answers. Cain was a psycho, in the worst way he could possibly be. Not only that, he was a sadistic freak that adored to see Winter in pain. Why Winter? Well I personally wonder the same thing myself. You see, Cain loved her, and at one point she loved him. At the time, she did not know he was a raging psychopath. She just loved him.


He promised her love, love beyond anything that her world could offer. But as time passed, she realized how much of a monster he was. His true sadistic nature revealed itself, and she broke up with him. He would not take that. He loved her, and he was insane, so he promised her he would be back, and he would destroy everyone she ever loved. He was going to give her a fate worse than death, by sending her somewhere she could never escape, somewhere that is completely inhuman. He was sending her to a practical hell, and she had no idea as to where or what it was.


And the only funny thing about this story is that she is me.

And today I woke up in hell

HURRY PLZZZZZZZ WORTH 40 PTS
Read this excerpt from Henry Ford’s autobiography, My Life and Work. We were a
prosperous company. We might easily have sat down and said: "Now we have arrived. Let us hold what we have got." Indeed, there was some disposition to take this stand. Some of the stockholders were seriously alarmed when our production reached one hundred cars a day. They wanted to do something to stop me from ruining the company, and when I replied to the effect that one hundred cars a day was only a trifle and that I hoped before long to make a thousand a day, they were inexpressibly shocked and I understand seriously contemplated court action. . . . The temptation to stop and hang on to what one has is quite natural. I can entirely sympathize with the desire to quit a life of activity and retire to a life of ease. I have never felt the urge myself but I can comprehend what it is – although I think that a man who retires ought entirely to get out of a business. There is a disposition to retire and retain control. It was, however, no part of my plan to do anything of that sort. I regarded our progress merely as an invitation to do more. Based on this excerpt, which words best describe Henry Ford? educated and intelligent kindhearted and considerate absent-minded and reckless hard-working and ambitious

I NEED HELP PLEASEEEE
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 survey,1 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.

In this article, the author suggests the Loch Ness monster may be a product of people's imaginations. Writing in complete sentences, cite two pieces of evidence the author uses to support this claim. Use details from the article to support your answer. (10 points)

What type of language register is used between King Anguish and his wife in lines 1-8 of the excerpt?

Finding her rage thus put to naught, she ran to King Anguish, and threw herself on her knees before

him, crying out:


'Oh, my lord and husband, here have ye in your house that traitor knight that slew my brother. My

brother was Sir Marhaus. Sir Marhaus, your champion and noble knight. It is Sir Tramor, as he

falsely calleth himself, but the piece of steel that was taken from my brother's brain fits a notch in his

sword.'

'Alas,' cried King Anguish, 'then am I right heavy, for he is as full noble a knight as ever I knew; and

I charge ye, have not to do with him, but let me deal in this matter.'


The king went to Sir Tristram and found him fully armed, as if ready to fight for his life, for he knew

that now the truth had been discovered.
