6. Leslie's suggestion that the entire lot of scorpions be slaughtered was not accepted by the rest of the family. What do you think could have been the reason for this?
Answer: The Scorpion hadn't attacked on purpose.
Explanation:
In this excerpt from "My family and other Animals", the narrator had found a mother scorpion which baby scorpions on her back and had decided to take them in to nurture them and watch them.grow.
He smuggled them in with a matchbox and then forgot about them as he ate lunch.
His brother opened the matchbox and fearing being stung, flung the clan away and pandemonium ensued.
Once order was restored the narrator begged that they don't kill the clan. This is probably because their presence in the house was his fault and therefore it would have been unfair to kill them all when they had no intention of causing the trouble that happened.

If you have read chapter 27 of "to kill a mockingbird" whats one word to describe that chapter and what part of chapter 27 shocked or surprised you?
Answer:
One word to describe this chapter would be revenge/ harassment (one of these if you wanna choose) because Bob Ewell begins to harass different people in the town because he is mad that Atticus took the job that Ewell wanted so this chapter is all about how Ewell takes his anger out on other people who were connected with the case before and holds a grudge against them
Explanation:
One part of the chapter that surprised me was when Bob Ewell attacks Jem and Scout on their way home in the dark. This chapter shocked me because attacking children is a horrible crime with a huge price to pay and for him willing to do that is crazy. (but in the end Boo kills Ewell) I hope this is still helpful.
Analyze the various characters in the story. List which character types—dynamic, round, static, and flat—you observed in the story. Cite evidence to support your response. From the story "The Gift of the Magi"
Answer:
There were three main characters in this story.
Della Dillingham Young (dynamic)
James Dillingham Young (dynamic/ static)
Madame Sofronie (flat)
Explanation:
Della was a dynamic character throughout the story because she was always up for the help, support, care and sacrifice. She can handle and change according to the situation. She sold her hairs to buy gift to her husband.
James was a static character in start because change was not his thing but when he had no money for gift, he decided to sell his precious thing just make his wife happy by giving her gift so it was also his dynamic side. So, James was both dynamic and static.
Madame Sofronie was a flat business woman who had no concern what Della is going through or what hairs meant to her. She didn't even look properly and told Della the price. So, madame Sofronie was a flat, emotionless, harsh business woman.
The two major characters are Della and Jim. There is one minor character, which is Mrs. Sofronie. Let's analyze them:
1. Della is a dynamic character because she experiences change and growth throughout the story. She sacrifices what she loves the most about herself - her hair - to buy a Christmas gift for her beloved husband (external conflict). She suffers to make such a decision (internal conflict), but goes through with it.
On the other hand, she is also a flat character when it comes to her personality. All we know about her is that she loves Jim dearly. Nothing else is developed, we do not see any other sides or facets of her personality.
2. Jim is a bit more complicated and open to interpretation because he only appears at the end of the story. However, we can tell that, just like his wife, he probably went through the same struggle. He too sacrificed his valuable watch to buy her a gift. We can assume that he, too, is a dynamic character.
Again, just like Della, we can say Jim is a flat character. His personality is not developed, especially because he barely appears in the story.
3. Mrs. Sofronie is a flat and static stock character. That means she is not developed at all. She only appears to help the plot move forward by buying Della's hair.
This question refers to the short story "The Gift of the Magi," by American author O. Henry (1862-1910).The main characters are husband and wife, Jim and Della.They both sacrifice their most valuable possessions to buy each other Christmas gifts.Jim sells his watch to buy Della beautiful combs for her hair.Della sells her hair to buy Jim a beautiful watch chain.In the end, their gifts are useless. Della can't wear the combs, and Jim can't wear the chain.However, they prove their deep love for each other through this sacrifice.Learn more about the story here:

In Conformity Experiment, which was carried out in 1950s by a Polish-American psychologist known as Solomon Asch. The experiment which is sometimes referred to as Asch Paradigm or Asch Conformity Experiment, concluded that, individual or people tend to conform to the opinion of others, basically on two reasons which are:

Answer:
Check the answer below
Explanation:
11, Olosan Street,
Alakia Road,
Ibadan,
Oyo State.
13th June, 2020.
The Governor,
Oyo State.
Dear sir,
LETTER OF ADVICE
I am writing this letter to you with a deep sense of appreciation and the acknowledgement of your good works to the good people of Oyo State. You're indeed the best Governor the State has ever had. A lot of students would have been out of school if not for your free education policy. All your good deeds are too numerous to be highlighted in a single letter.
However, it came to my notice that your administration is planning to stop paying for the registration of the Senior School Certificate Examination which I confirmed to be true. It is my duty as a citizen to advise you against this move. I will give you a few reasons to justify my point.
First, there are a lot of indigent students all over the State whose parents cannot afford three square meal in a day. The students fend for themselves and cannot afford to pay for the SSCE registration. If the government stops this payment, these young ones will lose all hope of going to school.
Moreover, Implementing policies that will make the young ones drop out of school will increase the crime rate in the state. If these students no longer go to school, they are liable to join different evil gangs which pose a lot of threats to our community.
Lastly, the future of any state or country lies in the education of the youths. Developed countries in the areas of technology, economy, and health got this breakthrough because they implemented policy that encourage mass education. Our state will lose all hope of development if this planned antipeople policy is implemented.
Finally, I implore you to reconsider this plan and continue this good gesture not minding the present economic realities.
Yours faithfully,
Kolade Oyesetan.
