Read the excerpt from "Marie Curie and the Discovery of Radioactivity."


It was a thrilling time to be a scientist. The year the Curies were married, 1895, a German physicist named Wilhelm Roentgen discovered a new kind of ray that could be used to “see” inside people and photograph their bones. He called them X rays. The X stood for “unknown.”


Not long after, the French physicist Henri Becquerel discovered that uranium let out another type of ray. These rays were weak compared to X rays, and even Becquerel himself did not think his discovery of much importance. But Marie found the rays fascinating. Where did they come from? How were they produced? She decided to examine these mysterious “Becquerel rays” for her advanced research.

Short story - Voyage of Despair

Explanation:

I went on a local mountain climbing on a snowy mountain near my cousins house, they live all the way in Vermont, I know my mom spent a lot of money for us to go, so I decided to make the most of it, the mountains had a giant river with a foggy sky. We also wanted to ride a boat across the river. the water was of course very freezing as it was very snowy. We got done walking the mountain and my legs were beginning to get VERY numb, I quickly hopped in the boat, it was FREEZING still. I l knew my cousins would be in charge of the voyage so I went to sleep. It felt like 10 whole hours, when I woke up to an empty boat. No one was in it but me. I was in the middle of the river, the blue river now got iced. I couldn't swim without a major risk of hypothermia. There was no signal on my phone. My whole body was numb due to the extreme cold.  I couldn't stop looking at the mountains because of how beautiful they were, I couldn't even see the path it was so foggy. About 4 minutes later a rescue boat came and got me. It turns out they had gotten to land and accidently left me in the boat and I went floating in the middle of the freezing river. They called for a rescue boat. But I never was able to get the image of the mountains and freezing blue river out of my head.

Poem-
The Mountain is cold
Snowy white like old
I really felt bold
The sky was so grey
I looked far away
To much in my display
In the snow I will play
This is making my day
I go down the mountain
As I stopped at a fountain
In the lodge I stayed
In the warmness I played
As my day ended in warmth.

What strange thing did the snake do?
Who are these strange people that come up to talk to Harry on the street?
Why do the Dursleys punish Harry for all the strange things that happen?

Answers

Answer:

The snake spoke to Harry.

Because they think he was the one who let the snake-free, and he was also the one who traped Dursley in the Glass dome.

The Dursleys treat Harry very cruelly in regards to his magic because they blame it for the death of his parents. Both, including Petunia Dursleys' younger sister Lily, were killed by Voldemort as young adults when Harry was just a baby.

His hair was cut and grew back overnight; his sweater shrank all on its own, and he was able to leap onto a chimney.

Just random wizards and witches that have heard of Harry Potter, but who don't know him personally - and of course, Harry Potter doesn't know them. The idea is that Harry Potter is famous, due to his defeat of Lord Voldemort when he was one year old - of which he remembers hardly anything, and (at first) has no idea how it might have happened.

You've looked at several different elements of colonial life: the experiences of women and people of African descent, people's demand for a greater voice in government, and a widespread interest in religion.
Which of these elements most reminds you of American life today? Put another way, what elements of today's American culture remind you of the country's colonial past? Write a paragraph that explains your choice, and be specific about why you see this similarity.

Answers

Answer:

In the United States, a large portion of the population is deeply religious, and this has a colonial origin, since an important percentage of the people who immigrated to the U.S. in the colonial period were part of religious miniorities like the quakers, the pilgrims, or the presbyterians.

In the United States, African Americans are still poorer in comparison with White Americans, and part of the reason is the legacy of slavery.

Since African Americans could not own property in colonial times (they were themselves considered to be property), they have had less time to accumulate wealth than their European-descent counterparts.

Explanation:

Write how you think the colonial life back then is similar to our life today.

To fit its sides, and crawl between,

And neigh like Boanerges;

Then, punctual as a star,

Stop - docile and omnipotent -

At its own stable door.

The Vulture source was actually in danger. Large groups of vultures may roost or occupy woodlots near homes and can be destructive. Black vultures often damage homes and commercial buildings by tearing window caulking, roof shingles, vent seals, rubber roof liners, and pool covers. And it can affect vehicles by scratching paint, removing rubber
seals and wipers, and ripping vinyl seat covers from boats and tractors. So we came up with a solution. Vulture management is complicated and site-specific, so consulting with a wildlife professional is vital to successfully resolve the damage.

Wildlife Services staff can help in many ways. This may include giving information on habitat management or strategies and tools for dispersing vultures from areas of conflict. Their biologists can document vulture damage and start the depredation permit application process when necessary. In some cases, we may enter into cooperative service agreements
to resolve these conflicts.
