⚠️help me write a Historical Flair Conclusion using the prompt : Why choosing friends wisely is important.⚠️
Answers
Answer:
True friendship is worth more than gold, because the elements of character and virtue that make true friendship a blessing cannot be purchased. The best type of friend is one who is wiser and better than ourselves, inspiring us through their wisdom and virtue. They commit noble deeds, and their wisdom and goodness lifts us higher both mentally and morally.
Those that intend to be great artists practice imitating the lines of previous masters, just as those who desire to life a good life must carefully follow the examples of trusted and true friends, imitating their good qualities until they equal or exceed the other person’s virtuous deeds.
A Man is Known by the Company He Keeps
This proverb is always true. A person’s character has the ability to change others through daily interaction faster than through any other means. Purity creates purity; like creates like. This makes the choice of companions in early life more important than that of teachers or guardians. Keep good company, and you shall become good.
When Sir Joshua Reynolds was a boy, he had such great reverence for the Pope that he would press through the crowd simply to touch his coat with the end of his forefinger, as if he expected to be lifted higher by the act, and become more of a man. That same feeling should apply in the choice of companions. Select those whose nobleness inspires you to reach out in admiration.
Companionship Saves or Destroys
The late Rev. Dr. Thomson, of New York City, published the story of a youth who came under his ministry at nineteen years of age. He was the son of pious parents, neither profane, idle, nor vicious, and had established a character for industry and sobriety. At twenty-one he was employed by a rail road company, where he made friends with wicked companions. He soon fell into evil ways, and in less than a year, became too abandoned and reckless to be harbored by the church. This man died within three years.
Dr. Thomson described it, “Two weeks ago I knelt in that murderer’s cell, in company with his parents, sister, and brother, who had come for their last interview with him on earth. That narrow cell was more solemn than the grave itself. Two weeks ago tomorrow I saw the youth, who had once been of my spiritual flock, upon the scaffold. It was an awful scene. He made a brief address. Oh, if you could have heard the warning of that young man from the scaffold:
‘You know how I was brought up’, he said. ‘I had the best instructions a Christian father could give. Oh, if I had followed them, I should have been in my dear father’s home; but evil companions led me astray, and I have come to this! I hope, now, as I leave the world, my voice will warn all young men. Our desires and passions are so strong that it requires very little to lead us astray. I want to urge it upon all young men, never to take the first step in such a career as mine. When the first step is taken in the paths of sin, it is very difficult to stop.'”
The company he kept led to his fall. Associates make or break a man. A promising boy can be transformed into a felon, while a felon can be transformed into a promising man. All the lessons of home can be nullified, and the language and habits of your current company can replace years of previously learned behavior.
On a positive note, good companionship has the power to elevate and bless the spirit. It can do far more for you than wealth, home, or books. The benefits of good schools, churches and social clubs are in large part attributable to the quality and abundance of the pure spirited companions to be found there.

Read this excerpt from Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll.
This sounded nonsense to Alice, so she said nothing, but set off at once towards the Red Queen. To her surprise, she lost sight of her in a moment, and found herself walking in at the front-door again.
A little provoked, she drew back, and after looking everywhere for the queen (whom she spied out at last, a long way off), she thought she would try the plan, this time, of walking in the opposite direction.
It succeeded beautifully. She had not been walking a minute before she found herself face to face with the Red Queen, and full in sight of the hill she had been so long aiming at.
Why does Alice need to walk in the opposite direction to get to the Red Queen?
because the Red Queen has moved to another location
because Alice is initially walking in the wrong direction
because the house has changed the location of its windows and doors

4. My master sent me away, because there existed against me a very great prejudice in the community, and he feared I might be killed.
The line from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass provides evidence that my master sent me away, because there existed against me a very great prejudice in the community, and he feared I might be killed Option(d) is correct.
Who was Frederick Douglass?Frederick Douglass was known to be as an American speaker, essayist, and legislator. Subsequent to getting away from subjugation in Maryland, he turned into a public head of the abolitionist development in Massachusetts and New York, becoming renowned for his rhetoric and sharp abolitionist works.
Douglass was of blended race, which probably remembered Native American and African for his mom's side, as well as European. Conversely, his dad was "in all likelihood white", as per antiquarian David W. Scourge in his 2018 life story of Douglass said his mom Harriet Bailey gave him his name Frederick Augustus Washington Bailey and, after he ran away toward the North in September 1838, he took the last name Douglass, having previously dropped his two center names.
Therefore Option(d) is correct.

"You might make a joke on THAT,” said the little voice close to her ear: "something about ‘you WOULD if you could,’ you know.”
"Don't tease so,” said Alice, looking about in vain to see where the voice came from; "if you're so anxious to have a joke made, why don't you make one yourself?”
The little voice sighed deeply: it was VERY unhappy, evidently, and Alice would have said something pitying to comfort it, "If it would only sigh like other people!” she thought. But this was such a wonderfully small sigh, that she wouldn't have heard it at all, if it hadn't come QUITE close to her ear. The consequence of this was that it tickled her ear very much, and quite took off her thoughts from the unhappiness of the poor little creature.

Explanation:
Jim was never late. Della held the watch chain in her hand and
sat near the door where he always entered. Then she heard his step in
the hall and her face lost color for a moment. She often said little prayers
quietly, about simple everyday things. And now she said: “Please God,
make him think I’m still pretty.”
Jim stopped inside the door. He was as quiet as a hunting dog when
it is near a bird. His eyes looked strangely at Della, and there was an
expression in them that she could not understand. It filled her with fear.
It was not anger, nor surprise, nor anything she had been ready for. He
simply looked at her with that strange expression on his face.
From inside the coat, Jim took something tied in the paper. He threw
it upon the table.
For there lay The Combs—the combs that Della had seen in a
shop window and loved for a long time. Beautiful combs, with jewels,
perfect for her beautiful hair. She had known they cost too much for
her to buy them. She had looked at them without the least hope of
owning them. And now they were hers, but her hair was gone.
Jim had not yet seen his beautiful gift. She held it out to him in
her open hand. The gold seemed to shine softly as if with her own warm
and loving spirit.
“Isn’t it perfect, Jim? I hunted all over town to find it. You’ll have
to look at your watch a hundred times a day now. Give me your watch.
I want to see how they look together.”
Jim sat down and smiled.
“Della,” said he, “let’s put our Christmas gifts away and keep them
a while. They’re too nice to use now. I sold the watch to get the money
to buy the combs. And now I think we should have our dinner.”

The Trapeze Act
Toby McAlister was a third-generation circus performer. He had started juggling when he was three years old. At the age of five, Toby could ride a unicycle while juggling six balls. When Toby turned eight, his father decided to start training him on the trapeze.
Toby loved the trapeze. He quickly mastered swinging and transferring between trapeze bars. After only a few months of training, Toby was part of his father's act. As the years passed, Toby learned to do more stunts. The father-son trapeze act became increasingly exciting and dangerous.
One evening, Toby was especially excited about his performance. He was going to execute a triple somersault in mid-air without a net below him.
"You are going to be the biggest star of the circus! Here is a shiny gold suit to show the world how brilliant you are!" Toby's father said as he gave him a new costume to wear.
Toby's mother however was not supportive. She cried and begged Toby and his father to use the net.
"Mama, don't worry. I practiced this act a million times and never fell once!" Toby told his mother.
"Toby is a master. I would not let him do the trick if I had any doubts. The crowds will love it!" Toby's father said.
When it was time for the trapeze act, Toby turned to the audience and posed with his arms raised high. Then, he grabbed the first trapeze bar, and leaped from the platform. For the first few minutes, Toby did his usual tricks.
"Ladies and gentleman, please give me your undivided attention! Tonight, Toby McAlister is going to perform a death-defying stunt right before your very eyes. He will attempt the triple somersault without a net!" the ringmaster announced.
Then, several workers entered the ring and removed the safety net. The audience grew still and silent. Toby's mother sat in the front row and prayed that Toby would not fall. As Toby's feet left the platform, Toby's mother held her breath and closed her eyes.
Suddenly, the audience gasped. Toby's mom felt her heart stop for a moment. Then, the arena erupted with applause. Toby's mom opened her eyes to see that Toby's father was holding him by the feet as he hung upside down. Toby's mom let out her breath, stood to her feet, and cheered.
How do the differing points of view of Toby and his mother affect the story?
A.
It creates tension and suspense.
B.
It foreshadows the outcome of Toby's act.
C.
It characterizes Toby's mom as overbearing.

What is the dialogue of the story called The Tell-tale Heart by Edgar Allan Poe ?
Answers
Answer:In the short story “The Tell-Tale Heart,” the narrator carries the plot forward. All the events in the plot are either of his own doing or the result of his actions. At the start of the story, in the exposition, both the narrator and the old man are introduced to the reader through what the narrator says. The story starts with the narrator, who claims to be nervous. He then contradicts himself by “calmly” telling his story. There are several such contradictions throughout the story. The narrator claims he is not insane, but his speech and actions indicate otherwise. He claims to have loved the old man and to have been kind to him, but he murders him. His irrational fear of the old man’s “Evil Eye” is what sets the events of the story in motion. He fears and loathes the evil eye, so he decides to get rid of it. In the climax, he kills the old man. After killing the old man, the narrator dismembers him, apparently to separate the identity of the old man from his eye. Later, in the falling action, the narrator feels guilty about killing the old man. His guilt causes him to mistake his own thumping heart for the old man’s beating heart. He gives himself up to the police, providing the denouement. Thus, across all the parts of the plot, the narrator affects the story because he drives the action.

“I'm sure I'm very sorry,” was all Alice could say; for the words of the old song kept ringing through her head like the ticking of a clock, and she could hardly help saying them out loud:—
“Tweedledum and Tweedledee
Agreed to have a battle;
For Tweedledum said Tweedledee
Had spoiled his nice new rattle.
Just then flew down a monstrous crow,
As black as a tar-barrel;
Which frightened both the heroes so,
They quite forgot their quarrel.”
Shortly after Alice sings this song, Tweedledee and Tweedledum begin to battle. This is evidence that
walking backward means going forward in the looking-glass land.

What is fictional character?Fictional characters or events exist only in stories, plays, or films and never existed or occurred in reality.
A fictional character is a made-up person or entity in a story, such as a book or a film. Fictional characters are inspired by historical figures, stories they hear, people they know, or characters from other works.
A fictional character is a person or animal in a work of art that tells a story (such as a novel, play, television series, or movie) The character can be entirely fictitious or based on a real person.
Tweedledee and Tweedledum begin to fight shortly after Alice sings this song. This is proof that fictional characters exist in the land of the looking-glass.

Dialogue/Incident in a story that propels the action, reveals an aspect of the character, or provokes a decision. The story is the Tell-Tale Heart by Edgar Allan Poe!!
Answers
The narrator wants to kill his old man because of his eye. He thinks his eye is a vulture and hates it. He try’s to convince the readers that he is not crazy and it perfectly sane. When he decides he wants to kill him because of it he goes into his room for 7 days a night and watches him sleep. He can’t kill him when the old man is asleep because his eyes will be closed. On the eighth night the old man hears something and him and the narrator stay still for an hour. The narrator knew that the old man was terrified and could feel it. The narrator then made his lantern a little crevice dim ray and saw the old man’s eye and then heard a heartbeat. He held the day upon the eye and then waited. After waiting he threw open the lantern and leaped into the room, dragged the old man on the floor and pulled his heavy bed over him(which basically means he killed him). The last thing he hears from the old man are the heartbeats. The narrator then dismembered his corpse(cut off head, arms, and legs) took 3 planks of wood flooring, and put his body under there. He put back the 3 planks of wood. As the bell sounded the hour, 3 police officers came to the narrator’s house. They got word from a neighbor who said they heard a shriek in the middle of the night. The narrator then lets them in, examines his house, and they also questions . The narrator said he was “absent in the country”. He thought to himself that his manner and how nicely he was satisfied the police and he was going to get away with murder. He then starts hearing a heartbeat. As it keeps going, it gets louder and louder. The narrator at a point couldn’t take it anymore then admitted his crime of killing his old man.
So technically we see that the narrator is well, crazy and mentally ill. He couldn’t take how loud the heartbeats were.

A Special Evening
I was a server at a fancy restaurant for about four years. I was pretty good at waiting tables, so I made good tips. People didn't take much notice of me as I refilled drinks or cleared empty plates. They just kept talking. Other times, a guest asked me to help make his or her loved one feel special. I always enjoyed helping people celebrate important occasions.
One evening, a young man brought his date to the restaurant. He treated her well—held the door open for her, slid her chair out, and pushed her chair in. I couldn't tell if it was their first date or not. The man seemed very anxious, but the woman seemed at ease. When the woman left the table, the man frantically waved for my attention. I rushed over and asked if he needed something.
"I'm going to propose to my girlfriend. I need your help. When you bring the dessert, put this ring on top of the cake. Then, I will get down on one knee. Please make sure that nothing happens to the ring. It cost a fortune," the man said.
"Sure thing, man. I'll take good care of the ring. Good luck," I said as I put it in my pocket.
I was happy when I saw the couple laughing and holding hands. I was pretty sure that the young woman would accept the proposal. Finally, it was time to bring the dessert. Eagerly, I went to the kitchen and placed the diamond ring on top of a slice of cheesecake. Then, I had a brilliant idea of how to make the presentation even more special. I went to the storage room to get a candle and a lighter. When I returned to the kitchen, the cheesecake with the diamond ring was gone. Just as I reached the front of the restaurant to see if another server had taken it, I heard, "Yes! Robert, I will marry you!"
Anxiously, I looked to see who had accepted the marriage proposal. I saw a happy-looking middle-aged woman admiring the diamond ring on her finger and a stunned-looking middle-aged man with his mouth hanging open in disbelief. Then, I noticed the guest who had given me the ring. He looked horrified. His face was pale and his eyes were bulging from their sockets. I glanced at his girlfriend. She was smiling and watching the woman with the diamond ring. She had no idea that the ring had been meant for her.
I wasn't quite sure what to do. I suppose that my flight or fight response kicked in. I untied my apron, ran out the door, and never went back.

Answer: sorry i got carryed away if its on a computer copy paste and if not take parts out
opens on a dark and stormy night as the three members of the White family relax inside their cozy house. Herbert White and his father are playing a game of chess while Mrs. White knits near the fire. After his son wins, Mr. White complains about the terrible weather and nearly deserted road they live near.
A family friend, Sergeant-Major Morris, arrives for a visit. Over whisky, he tells stories of his exploits abroad. Mr. White expresses interest in going to India, but the sergeant-major says he would be better off staying at home. At Mr. and Mrs. Whites’ urging, Sergeant-Major Morris takes a small, mummified paw out of his pocket. He explains that a fakir (a mystic miracle worker) placed a spell on the paw to prove that people’s lives are governed by fate and that it is dangerous to meddle with fate. According to the sergeant-major, three men can wish on the paw three times each. The sergeant-major himself has already had his three wishes, as has another man, who used his third wish to ask for death. The sergeant-major has considered selling the paw, but he doesn’t want it to cause any more trouble than it already has. Moreover, no one will buy the paw without first seeing proof of its effect. The sergeant-major throws the paw into the fire, and Mr. White quickly rescues it. The sergeant-major warns him three times to leave the paw alone, but he eventually explains how to make a wish on the paw.
Mrs. White says the story reminds her of the Arabian Nights and jokingly suggests that her husband wish her a pair of extra hands to help her with all her work. The sergeant-major doesn’t find this joke funny, however, and urges Mr. White to use common sense if he insists on wishing. After supper and more tales of India, the sergeant-major leaves. Herbert says he thinks the sergeant-major is full of nonsense and jokes that his father should make himself an emperor so that he doesn’t have to listen to Mrs. White’s nagging. In mock anger, Mrs. White playfully chases her son.
Mr. White says he has everything he wants and isn’t sure what to wish for. Herbert says that two hundred pounds would enable them to pay off the money owed for the house. Mr. White wishes aloud for two hundred pounds as Herbert accompanies him with melodramatic chords played on the piano. Mr. White suddenly cries out and says that the paw moved like a snake in his hand. After Mr. and Mrs. White go to bed, Herbert sits by the fire and sees a vividly realistic monkey face in the flames. He puts out the fire, takes the monkey’s paw, and goes to bed.
Part II begins on the next morning, a sunny winter day. The room seems cheerful and normal in contrast to the previous evening’s gloomy atmosphere and the mummified paw now looks harmless. Mrs. White comments on how ridiculous the sergeant-major’s story was but remarks that two hundred pounds couldn’t do any harm. They could, Herbert jokes, if the money fell out of the sky onto his father’s head. Mr. White answers that people often mistake coincidence for granted wishes. Herbert then leaves for work.
Later that day, Mrs. White notices a stranger outside dressed in nice clothes. The stranger hesitantly approaches their gate three times before opening it and coming up to the door. Mrs. White ushers him in. He nervously states that he is a representative of Maw and Meggins, Herbert’s employer. Mrs. White asks whether Herbert is all right, and the representative says he is hurt, but in no pain. For a moment, Mrs. White feels relieved, until she realizes that Herbert feels no pain because he’s dead. The representative says that Herbert was “caught in the machinery.” After a pause, Mr. White says that Herbert was the only child they had left. Embarrassed, the representative stresses that he is simply obeying Maw and Meggins’s orders. He then explains that the company will not take any responsibility for the death but will give the Whites two hundred pounds. Mrs. White shrieks, and Mr. White faints.
In Part III, the Whites bury Herbert. Several days pass, and the couple feels exhausted and hopeless. A week after the burial, Mr. White wakes up and hears his wife crying by the window. He gently urges her to come back to bed, but she refuses. He dozes off again until Mrs. White suddenly cries out that she wants the monkey’s paw. In hysterics, she tells him to go downstairs and wish Herbert back to life. Mr. White resists and tells her that Herbert’s death and the two hundred pounds they had received had nothing to do with his wish the previous night. Mr. White says that he didn’t want to tell her before, but Herbert was so mangled that he had to identify the body by looking at the clothes. Mrs. White doesn’t listen, however, and continues to insist on wishing Herbert back to life with the monkey’s paw.
