Please help. If you answer the four questions I'll mark you brainliest
I fell in love with the minister's son the winter I turned fourteen.
He was not Chinese, but as white as Mary in the manger.
For Christmas, I prayed for this blond-haired boy, Robert, and a slim new American nose.
When I found out that my parents had invited the minister's family over for Christmas Eve dinner, I cried.
What would Robert think of our shabby Chinese Christmas? What would he think of our noisy Chinese relatives who lacked proper American manners?
What terrible disappointment would he feel upon seeing not a roasted turkey and sweet potatoes but Chinese food?
On Christmas Eve I saw that my mother had outdone herself in creating a strange menu. She was pulling black veins out of the backs of fleshy prawns.
The kitchen was littered with appalling mounds of raw food:
A slimy rock cod with bulging eyes that pleaded not to be thrown into a pan of hot oil. Tofu, which looked like stacked wedges of rubbery white sponges.
A bowl soaking dried fungus back to life.
A plate of squid, their backs crisscrossed with knife markings so they resembled bicycle tires.

PLS ANSWER THANK YOU
why is it important to use primary sources as well as secondary sources. explain why its important or helpful about both types
Answer:
Most research uses both primary and secondary sources. They complement each other to help you build a convincing argument. Primary sources are more credible as evidence, but secondary sources show how your work relates to existing research.
Primary sources help students develop knowledge, skills, and analytical abilities. When dealing directly with primary sources, students engage in asking questions, thinking critically, making intelligent inferences, and developing reasoned explanations and interpretations of events and issues in the past and present.
Secondary sources provide good overviews of a subject, so are particularly useful if you need to find about an area that's new to you. They are also helpful because you can find keywords to describe a subject area, as well as key authors and key references that you can use to do further reading and research.
Have a great day! :)
Answer:
When you read a book it is almost like learning a whole new way to think, write, and use words. That is almost what a primary source is. While you are gathering information from the primary source, you are learning to think critically, and that is huge if you want to make a good research essay. Who knows you might even find good quotes related to the topic. A secondary source is what people use most, maybe a w*bsite that has information of what you need on it. When you put something into g****gle what will usually come up are secondary sources.

Explain how to form a possessive indefinite pronoun; demonstrate by writing a sentence using the pronoun "everyone."
Answer:Unlike the personal pronouns, the indefinite pronouns form their possessives by adding “apostrophe ‑s.” Only one has a plural form (others). In formal settings, all indefinite pronouns ending in ‑one or ‑body are singular. You should therefore use singular verbs.
Explanation:
Answer:
Responses may vary but should include some or all of the following information:
Add an apostrophe and an -s to the end of an indefinite pronoun to make it possessive. For example, "After everyone's practice runs, we made our way to the fan viewing area."

How does the character of the talking skull reveal the author's point of view in the story?
This question refers to the short story "The Talking Skull".
Answer and Explanation:
In "The Talking Skull - A Fable from Cameroon" by Donna L. Washington, the theme concerns how thinking too highly of yourself and talking too much can bring you trouble. The author uses the character of the talking skull to teach that lesson. The skull is found by a man who considers himself a scholar and who talks and talks about things that are only important to him, but that no one else wants to hear. When he asks the skull "What brought you here, brother?" or, in other words, what caused its death, the skull immediately replies, "Talking."
The man does not pay attention to what the skull is saying. He only cares about the fact that its talking. The skull makes it clear that not everything is worth saying, but the man does not listen. He tries to make the skull talk in front of the villagers, but no avail. He is finally thrown out by them since they are tired of his ideas and talks. The skull once more talks, only to remind the man that not everything is worth saying.

According to Frederick Douglass, when slaves of different plantations or homes met, they'd argue about whose master is better than the other. Such was inspired by the prejudices they have.
