I need help writing a two paragraphs assertion about a blind man from the passage the down below.

He was plainly blind, for he tapped before him with a stick, and wore a great green shade
over his eyes and nose; and he was hunched, as if with age or weakness, and wore a huge old
tattered sea-cloak with a hood, that made him appear positively deformed. I never saw in my life
a more dreadful-looking figure. He stopped a little from the inn, and, raising his voice in an odd
sing-song, addressed the air in front of him: –

“Will any kind friend inform a poor blind man, who has lost the precious sight of his eyes
in the gracious defence of his native country, England, and God bless King George! – where or in what part of this country he may now be?”

“You are at the ‘Admiral Benbow,’ Black Hill Cove, my good man,” said I.
“I hear a voice,” said he – “a young voice. Will you give me your hand, my kind young
friend, and lead me in?”
I held out my hand, and the horrible, soft-spoken, eyeless creature gripped it in a moment
like a vice. I was so much startled that I struggled to withdraw; but the blind man pulled me close
up to him with a single action of his arm.
“Now, boy,” he said, “take me in to the captain.”
“Sir,” said I, “upon my word I dare not.”

“Oh,” he sneered, “that’s it! Take me in straight, or I’ll break your arm.”
And he gave it, as he spoke, a wrench that made me cry out.
“Sir,” said I, “it is for yourself I mean. The captain is not what he used to be. He sits with a
drawn cutlass. Another gentleman – ”
“Come, now, march,” interrupted he; and I never heard a voice so cruel, and cold, and
ugly as that blind man’s. It cowed me more than the pain; and I began to obey him at once,
walking straight in at the door and towards the parlour, where our sick old buccaneer was sitting,
dazed with rum. The blind man clung close to me, holding me in one iron fist, and leaning almost
more of his weight on me than I could carry. “Lead me straight up to him, and when I’m in view,
cry out, ‘Here’s a friend for you, Bill.’ If you don’t, I’ll do this;” and with that he gave me a twitch
that I thought would have made me faint. Between this and that, I was so utterly terrified of the
blind beggar that I forgot my terror of the captain, and as I opened the parlour door, cried out
the words he had ordered in a trembling voice.
The poor captain raised his eyes, and at one look the rum went out of him, and left him
staring sober. The expression of his face was not so much of terror as of mortal sickness. He
made a movement to rise, but I do not believe he had enough force left in his body.
“Now, Bill, sit where you are,” said the beggar. “If I can’t see, I can hear a finger stirring.
Business is business. Hold out your right hand. Boy, take his right hand by the wrist, and bring it
near to my right.”
We both obeyed him to the letter, and I saw him pass something from the hollow of the
hand that held his stick into the palm of the captain’s, which closed upon it instantly.
“And now that’s done,” said the blind man; and at the words he suddenly left hold of me,
and, with incredible accuracy and nimbleness, skipped out of the parlour and into the road,
where, as I still stood motionless, I could hear his stick go tap-tap-tapping into the distance.
It was some time before either I or the captain seemed to gather our senses; but at
length, and about at the same moment, I released his wrist, which I was still holding, and he
drew in his hand and looked sharply into the palm.
“Ten o’clock!’ he cried. “Six hours. We’ll do them yet”; and he sprang to his feet.
Even as he did so, he reeled, put his hand to his throat, stood swaying for a moment, and
then, with a peculiar sound, fell from his whole height face foremost to the floor.
I ran to him at once, calling to my mother. But haste was all in vain. The captain had been
struck dead by thundering apoplexy.

Answer 1

Answer:

My neighbour, Gopal, has an only son. Unfortunately, he is blind. He cannot see at all. For him days and nights are equal. His is a wretched life. For all his needs, he depends on other members of the family. He cannot take care of himself.

He is a burden on others. He cannot go anywhere without the help of a guide. He is deprived of all the joys and pleasures which come to us through our eyes. He can’t go to the pictures. He cannot enjoy the scenes and sights of nature. There is no joy in his life. He is always sad and moody. He has no chance of marriage. All his life. He must remain a bachelor. He must lead a sad and lonely life.

But Nature has compensated him for this heavy loss of eye-sight. He has been blessed with a sweet and melodious voice. He can charm others with his songs. He is often invited by people to entertain them with his songs.

He is paid handsomely. He has a very good memory. He knows the whole of the Tulsi Ramayana by heart. When he sings, the words seem to flow from his heart. All present listen to him spell­bound. Singing has become his hobby. It is the only redeeming feature of his life.

But nowadays, there are schools for the blind. They can be educated. They can be trained in various handicrafts and thus made useful member of society. So the lot of a blindman is not as hard and miserable as it used to be.

He can become capable of earning his livelihood. If he so chooses. He can get higher education and thus secure a Government job. He need not feel helpless and miserable. Several avenues are open to him. There are chances for him to make his career.

The behavior of the atmosphere, which we experience as weather and climate, affects our lives in many important ways. It is the reason no one lives on the South Pole.

pls help 15 points Read the passage below from The First Men in the Moon.

I was unshaven and unkempt; I had brought no razor; I had a coarse beard over my mouth. On earth I have always been inclined to despise any attention to my person beyond a proper care for cleanliness; but under the exceptional circumstances in which I found myself, representing, as I did, my planet and my kind, and depending very largely upon the attractiveness of my appearance for a proper reception, I could have given much for something a little more artistic and dignified than the husks I wore.
In the passage above, what inference can be made about Mr. Cavor’s statements?

He places great value on his personal appearance.
He has little respect for cleanliness and hygiene.
He is accustomed to wearing elegant clothing.
He is concerned with making a good impression.

Answers

It’s B, he has little respect for cleanliness and hygiene because in the passage it’s doesn’t tell that he’s concerned with making a good impression so scratch D off. Also it never stated anything about his clothes and or how he wears them so Scratch C off. As for A, it tells that he’s at peace with the earth and doesn’t care for his appearance wise. So the answer is B because in the passage it states, “On earth I have always been inclined to despise any attention to my person beyond a proper care for cleanliness; But under the exceptional circumstances....” which shows he does (one in a blue moon) clean himself

Answer:

He has little respect for cleanliness and hygiene.

Some people think freeze-drying is a new way to keep food, but it isn’t. It actually dates back to ancient times when the Incas did it in the cold night air of the Andes Mountains. Today, a machine is used to remove all the water from the food, leaving its shape, color, and other features unchanged. In addition to making it possible to keep food longer, freeze-drying makes food weigh less. Less weight makes the food easier to carry, which is important in many situations, like camping or on trips into space. Freeze-drying is still done today because, over time, it has proven to be a very good thing to do.

What is the author’s purpose for writing the passage?
A.
to persuade readers against freeze-drying to preserve food

Answers

Answer:

I'm not sure what this question is indicated but I will try my best to explain it the way I understand it.

Explanation:

Jack woke up extra early to make breakfast for this whole family. If Jack wore to wake up late the family would have already made breakfast so instead of making the breakfast he would have woken up to it already made.

Say if Jack hadn't woken up at all, the morning for this family would likely change dramatically.

So the fact that jack woke up, his family had something to eat without having to make it.

so without jack-> no food made.

What should the transitional tags

but, however, and on the other hand be used for?


to introduce quotes

to contrast ideas

to show the order of ideas

All of the above

Answers

The transitional tags "but," "however," and "on the other hand" are primarily used to contrast ideas. The correct option is B.

What are transitional tags used for?

They serve as cues that guide the reader in understanding your views. Use transitional language to move your ideas from one sentence to the next and from one paragraph to the next.

These transitional words or phrases are used to indicate a shift in the direction of the writer's argument, to introduce a contrasting perspective or idea, or to indicate a counterpoint to a previous argument. They help to create a more cohesive and effective piece of writing by showing the relationship between ideas and arguments.

While they can also be used to show the order of ideas or to introduce quotes, their primary function is to provide a clear contrast between two different ideas or perspectives.

Thus, the ideal selection is option B.
