"This little affair," said the Time Traveller, resting his elbows upon the table and pressing his hands together above the apparatus, "is only a model. It is my plan for a machine to travel through time. You will notice that it looks singularly askew, and that there is an odd twinkling appearance about this bar, as though it was in some way unreal." He pointed to the part with his finger. "Also, here is one little white lever, and here is another." (H. G. Wells, The Time Machine) So Christian turned out of his way to go to Mr. Legality's house for help; but, behold, when he was got now hard by the hill, it seemed so high, and also that side of it that was next the wayside did hang so much over, that Christian was afraid to venture further, lest the hill should fall on his head; wherefore there he stood still and wotted not what to do. Also his burden now seemed heavier to him than while he was in his way. There came also flashes of fire out of the hill, that made Christian afraid that he should be burned. (John Bunyan, The Pilgrim's Progress) From a window of an apartment house that upreared its form from amid squat, ignorant stables, there leaned a curious woman. Some laborers, unloading a scow at a dock at the river, paused for a moment and regarded the fight. The engineer of a passive tugboat hung lazily to a railing and watched. Over on the Island, a worm of yellow convicts came from the shadow of a building and crawled slowly along the river's bank.

this is one of my fav songs and i thought i would share it with yall
If I live to be a hundred
And never see the seven wonders
That'll be alright
If I don't make it to the big leagues
If I never win a Grammy
I'm gonna be just fine
Cause I know exactly who I am
I am Rosemary's granddaughter
The spitting image of my father
And when the day is done my momma's still my biggest fan
Sometimes I'm clueless and I'm clumsy
But I've got friends that love me
And they know just where I stand
It's all a part of me
And that's who I am
So when I make a big mistake
And when I fall flat on my face
I know I'll be alright
Should my tender heart be broken
I will cry those teardrops knowing
I will be just fine
Cause nothing changes who I am
I am Rosemary's granddaughter
The spitting image of my father
And when the day is done my momma's still my biggest fan
Sometimes I'm clueless and I'm clumsy
But I've got friends that love me
And they know just where I stand
It's all a part of me
And that's who I am
I'm a saint and I'm a sinner
I'm a loser; I'm a winner
I am steady and unstable
I'm young, but I am able
I am Rosemary's granddaughter
The spitting image of my father
And when the day is done my momma's still my biggest fan
Sometimes I'm clueless and I'm clumsy
But I've got friends that love me
And they know where I stand
It's all a part of me
And that's who I am
I am Rosemary's granddaughter
The spitting image of my father
And when the day is done my momma's still my biggest fan
Sometimes I'm clueless and I'm clumsy
But I've got friends that love me
And they know where I stand
It's all a part of me

Include details and information from the original letter in your response. Your response should be at least a half-page in length and be written in 1st person POV as if you are Lincoln’s stepbrother.
Letter to John D Johnston. Shelbyville. November 4, 1851
Dear Brother, When I came into Charleston day before yesterday, I learned that you are anxious to sell the land where you live and move to Missouri. I have been thinking of this ever since, and cannot but think such a notion is utterly foolish. What can you do in Missouri better than here? Is the land any richer? Can you there, any more than here, raise corn and wheat and oats without work? Will anybody there, any more than here, do your work for you? If you intend to go to work, there is no better place than right where you are; if you do not intend to go to work, you cannot get along anywhere. Squirming and crawling about from place to place can do no good. You have raised no crop this year; and what you really want is to sell the land, get the money, and spend it. Part with the land you have, and, my life upon it, you will never after own a spot big enough to bury you will get for the land you will spend in moving to Missouri, and the other half you will eat, drink, and wear out, and no foot of land will be bought. Now, I feel it my duty to have no hand in such a piece of foolery. I feel that it is so even on your own account, and particularly on mother's account. The eastern forty acres I intend to keep for mother while she lives; if you will not cultivate it, it will rent for enough to support her—at least, it will rent for something. Her dower in the other two forties she can let you have, and no thanks to me. Now, do not misunderstand this letter; do not write it in any unkindness. I write it in order, if possible, to get you to face the truth, which truth is, you are destitute because you have idled away all your time. Your thousand pretences for not getting along better are all nonsense; they deceive nobody but yourself. Go to work is the only cure for your case.
A word to mother. Chapman tells me he wants you to go and live with him. If I were you I would try it awhile. If you get tired of it (as I think you will not), you can return to your own home. Chapman feels very kindly to you, and I have no doubt he will make your situation very pleasant.

or
I have a lot of vehicles as obstacles so I may delay
Answer:
The wait. Every second feels like ages. The constant honks of irritated drivers. The multiple convergences of routes in which we all wait for the signal to glow. While the loud noise of anger people and the even more deafening noise machinery, building tirelessly. You can start to smell the propellant filling the air, this horrible smell that adds to the already awful day many people are having. Why are there signals here? To stop disasters; that happen anyway once people have enough of the waiting and decided to make a move, the wrong move. This is not the first time this haste hour happens, no, and we all know that it won't be the last either. We all have places to be and things to get done. Slowly people in the front get to go where they need to be, every vehicle starts to move forward. Is this the end of this forever seemingly wait? No, as soon as the vehicles move forward they stop. More vehicles go and more start to come this all happens throughout the day in these busy routes. One by one all the vehicles leave and all that is left is the sound of life.
Hope its good enough

PLEASE HELP!!! Although there are still occasions when it is required, face-to-face communication seems to be decreasing. In the age of digital technology, we conduct many of our relationships through our devices instead of in person. Coworkers send e-mails instead of holding meetings. Students access assignments and lessons online that teachers once delivered in class. Friends interact through social media instead of getting together (and, sometimes, even while they are together). Perhaps our apparent preference for digital methods of communication is merely a sign of technological progress. But could this trend be harmful? What do we gain, and what do we lose, as our interpersonal relationships arc increasingly conducted online instead of in person? In the digital age, it is worth considering the implications of decreasing face-to-face communication.
Answer:
Perspective One
As our methods of communication become more impersonal, our connections to each other weaken. As a result, we become self-centered, unsympathetic people.
Perspective Two
Our face-to-face communication may be decreasing, hut our connections to others have never been richer. After all, we use our tools to communicate faster—and with more people—than ever before.
Perspective Three
The absence of body language and tone of voice results in regular misunderstandings. Many of our personal and even societal conflicts occur because our digital communication is commonly misinterpreted by others.
Essay Task
Write a unified, coherent essay about the implications of decreasing face-to-face communication. In your essay, be sure to:
-clearly state your own perspective on the issue and analyze the relationship between your perspective and at least one other perspective
-develop and support your ideas with reasoning and examples
-organize your ideas clearly and logically
-communicate your ideas effectively in standard written English
Your perspective may be in full agreement with any of those given, in partial agreement, or completely different.

Answer:
The correct answer is A. Matilda recognizes her mother’s weakness.
Explanation:
Matilda's Mother's disclosure that "I didn't know if I was looking at a bad man or a man who loved me" made Matilda feel a little uneasy about being told such a thing, which she considers to be adult talk. However, it made her realize something and change her perception of her mother.
She realized that her mother is still stuck at an earlier period in her life where she suffered a disappointment from Matilda's father. Matilda realized that whatever it was that her father did is still stuck in her mother's head and she hasn't moved on from it.

"A Lady " by Amy Lowell
You are beautiful and faded,
Like an old opera tune
Played upon a harpsichord;
Or like the sun-flooded silks
Of an eighteenth-century boudoir. In your eyes
Smoulder the fallen roses of outlived minutes,
And the perfume of your soul
Is vague and suffusing,
With the pungence of sealed spice-jars.
Your half-tones delight me,
And I grow mad with gazing
At your blent colors.
My vigor is a new-minted penny,
Which I cast at your feet.
Gather it up from the dust
That its sparkle may amuse you.( answer for the bottom)
