rational individual who does well in moments of danger?
Select 2 options.
He struggled up to the surface and tried to cry out
Desperately he struck out with strong strokes after the
receding lights of the yacht
A certain cool-headedness had come to him;
There was a chance that his cries could be heard by
someone aboard the yacht
[D]oggedly he swam in that direction, swimming with slow,
deliberate strokes, conserving his strength.

Answer:

A certain cool headed ness had come to him

Doggedly he swam in that direction, swimming with slow deliberate strokes conserving his strength

Explanation:

These show that he can stay calm and logical even when forced into stressful situations.

Two details from the narration show that Rainsford is a rational individual who does well in moments of danger: "A certain cool-headedness had come to him," and "doggedly he swam in that direction, swimming with slow, deliberate strokes, conserving his strength." That is the second and last option.

"A certain cool-headedness had come to him," this line indicates that despite the danger and uncertainty of Rainsford's situation (he has been thrown overboard in the middle of the ocean at night), he is able to maintain a clear and level-headed approach to the problem. This is an important trait for someone in a dangerous situation, as it allows them to think logically and make decisions that are more likely to lead to a positive outcome. " "Doggedly, he swam in that direction, swimming with slow, deliberate strokes, conserving his strength," this line describes how Rainsford is swimming towards the distant lights of a nearby yacht, but is doing so in a controlled and deliberate manner.

Hence, the correct answers are A certain cool-headedness had come to him," and "doggedly he swam in that direction, swimming with slow, deliberate strokes, conserving his strength."

Which part of this story is the resolution?
One morning, my mother discovered she was out of eggs to make a cake. So she sent my sister and me to the market to buy some. She gave
us the coins we needed, a basket and advice to stay close to the road. We set off and were well on our way when my sister heard singing in
the distance. She immediately wandered off to find it leaving the road. I remembered my mother's advice, but I didn't want to leave my sister
alone. I ran after her, trying to get her to come back to the road. But her curiosity got the best of her.
Soon we were in the middle of the woods, and the music grew louder. We looked up and saw what was creating the beautiful sound: a witch.
Before we could do anything, we were caught in her trap. The witch grabbed the trap and started to carry us away. I looked at my sister and
could tell she was remembering our mother's words. It was no time to say "I told you so." We needed to make a plan. I started to sing a song,
The witch stopped in her tracks.
"What's that you're singing, my dear?" she asked with her glowing eyes fixed on me.
"It's a song my mother taught me." I answered. "Let me out, and I'll teach it to you.
The witch thought for a moment. Then she opened the trap and let us out. I sang quietly, so she had to move closer in order to hear the song.
When she was close enough that I could feel her breath on my face, I poked her eyes with a tree branch. Then I grabbed my sister's hand and
took off running
We followed our tracks all the way to the trail, never looking back. We ran to the market bought the eggs for our mother, and raced home.
When we got there, mother was happy to see us safe and sound. We told her what had happened. She was angry at first. Then she gave us a
big hug and said, "Maybe we should buy some chickens so we don't have to walk to the market to get our eggs." And we did. As for the witch,
she never bothered us again,

Unchecked may rise, and climb from art to art;
But when his own great work is but begun,
What reason weaves, by passion is undone.

With the invention of the telescope, suddenly the universe didn’t seem so far away. Galileo, an Italian scholar in the 1600s, took advantage of this new device by pointing it toward the sky. Through the telescope, the moons and planets looked clearer and closer. Galileo could see that the moon had a rough surface dotted with craters. He also found the Milky Way galaxy. In addition, Galileo observed that Earth appeared to circle the sun instead of the other way around. These discoveries reshaped how people thought about space and Earth’s place in it. Galileo’s groundbreaking observations also sparked a curiosity about space that continues into modern times.
