Purposes for reading A student will read for many different reasons, and it is important to remember that the way reading is approached should change depending on the purpose. Glancing through a newspaper to pick out the main news items is quicker than and different from reading for study, and both involve a variety of skills. A newspaper often gives only a cursory coverage of a topic, ignoring the details. A textbook may require detailed study to extract the essential knowledge it contains. When reading, for example, it is possible to: a) read an instruction book with the intention of immediately applying the information in order to play a new stereo, use a cooker, repair a car; b) read an enjoyable, exciting novel for escapism, as quickly as possible, with no need to worry about remembering any of the story afterwards; c) skim through the pages of a magazine for the latest developments; or d) scan the pages of a newspaper to absorb the main headlines that day, disregarding the advertisements altogether. There are, of course, different ways of tackling reading, which will vary according to both the reading material and the particular task and focus. Reading is, after all, one of the basic tools of work for students. It is crucial that reading skills are developed so that you are able to get the most out of reading and importantly to make the best use of it. There are many techniques that can be used to gain a detailed understanding from a textbook or article, to identify the main themes or issues, or to get a general overview. The reading skills that you have already developed can be put to good use in academic study. 4.

Which narrative point of view is shown in the passage?
Hummel sighed. His gun-colored coveralls seemed deflated; a sprinkle of iron filings fell from his hair. . . . Hummel was pathetic, Caldwell decided as he walked away. Lonely devil, couldn't stop talking, he couldn't let you go. No need for mechanics like him any more; everything mass-produced. Waste. If one wears out, get another. Biff. Bang. Smash 'em up.

Answers

Answer:

The story is being told from the 3rd person

Explanation:

by reading the passage we can find certain clues that help us figure it out, examples include: "Hummel sighed" the mentioning of the name is rarely done from the first person, and "Caldwell decided as he walked away." this clears up that Caldwell is not narrating either. if no present character cannot be identified as the narrator the story is being told from the third person.

What was the situation in Rwanda before European colonization?

Answers

Answer: The Belgian colonial occupation had a much more lasting effect in Rwanda. The most lasting effect was how the colonial authorities racialized the differences between Hutu, Twa and Tutsi[vi]. Rwanda gained independence from Belgium in 1962, but the post-colonial period was marred by ethnically motivated violence.

For an alternating electric current, how many times does it oscillate in 0.05 seconds? What are the maximum and minimum voltage in this?

Answers

Answer:

If you’re at 60 Hz, it will oscillate 3 full cycles in 50 milliseconds. If you’re at 50 HZ, it will oscillate 2.5 full cycles in 50 milliseconds.

The minimum and maximum voltage depend on the input voltage. If the input voltage is 120V, the actual peak voltage is 120V divided by RMS (Root Mean Square), approximately 0.707, which gives you approximately 170 volts. The minimum voltage is zero, but that’s as the electricity changes direction.

Walking is not the most exciting form of exercise a person can take on for fitness. Yet it is low impact and requires no fancy equipment. That makes walking a simple activity for those new to exercise. Walking is less likely than other exercises to cause injury to leg tendons and muscles. All it requires is a good pair of sneakers—no cables, stylish outfits, or weights required. Of course, a person could increase the benefit of a workout by adding weights or speed walking.

Which of the following statements supports the main idea in this paragraph?

Walking is boring.
Walking has a low risk of injury.
Walking requires sneakers in good condition.
Walking is too easy for those who exercise regularly.

Answers

Answer:

Walking has a low risk level.

Explanation:

In the passage, they state that walking is less likely to cause injury to the tendons and muscles in your legs. It is a good beginning exercise for someone who wants to start working out, but doesn't have the strength.

Which word is closest in meaning to shrieking as it is used in this sentence? And as my reverie softened down to a sadder and sadder pathos, the shrieking of the winds outside softened to a wail, the angry beating of the rain against the panes diminished to a tranquil patter, and one by one the noises in the street subsided, until the hurrying footsteps of the last belated straggler died away in the distance and left no sound behind. O yelling O whining O screeching o scolding​

Answers

Answer:

The wind was very loud, and sounded as though it was shrieking.

Explanation:

 Some authors choose to use personification, and describe the wind as shrieking, howling, wailing, crying, or whistling. In this case, the author chose to describe the loud wind as a shrieking sound.

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer:

Hope this helps, I dont want to give you the answer because people will just copy and paste it without a thought.

Explanation:

Rounded numbers are easier to work with in your head. They are only approximate. An exact answer can not be obtained with these numbers. Sometimes an exact answer is not required.

To round numbers to the nearest hundred thousand, make the numbers whose last five digits are 00001 through 49999 into the next lower number that ends in 00000. For example 6,424,985 rounded to the nearest hundred thousand would be 6,400,000. Numbers that have the last five digits of 50000 or more should be rounded up to the next even hundred thousand. The number 8,988,987 rounded to the nearest hundred thousand would be 9,000,000.

HURRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY THIS IS TIMED
I hung around in the new neighborhood enjoying the sight of green trees, big whitewashed houses, and well-kept lawns where geraniums and roses of different shades were in full bloom. It had been three days since we moved to Cameron County from Reynosa, and I was eager to explore the neighborhood.
2 As I lingered on the sidewalk at the far end of the block, I noticed a house that had the neatest and the best-kept lawn I had ever seen. The lawn looked like one of those paintings by an artist who puts a lot of time and effort into his work of art. I started to turn around and leave when I heard something that sounded like a bark.
3 The gates were slightly open, and I could see the house and its conspicuous front yard with blooming flowers of different colors. For a fleeting moment, I was tempted to pluck one, but they looked so perfect that I decided to bend down and take a whiff of the sweet fragrance.
4 As I was enjoying the view laid out in front of me, a deep voice interrupted my thoughts.
5 "Aren't they lovely?" he said.
6 I turned around to find a middle-aged man, probably in his late fifties. "I planted these beauties with my own hands," he added in his proud and merry voice.
7 "Hi, my name is Ethan," I introduced myself.
8 "Nice to meet you, Ethan! I'm Jacob," he said.
9 When I told him that his garden had the best flowers in the neighborhood, his eyes twinkled, and a big grin spread across his face. I told him that I lived a few blocks away, and when I asked him about his family, he said they were on vacation. He could not leave the house, as he had a pet and a garden to look after.
10 "This garden, its flowers, and the sparrows that chirp all day long on the trees in my backyard are my friends and family for now," he said and winked. "Would you like to take one of my best roses home?" he asked.
11 "But they are so beautiful, and you worked so hard to make your garden look so appealing," I replied.
12 "If my flowers make you happy, I'll gladly gift you one," he said and smiled.
13 I was surprised and inspired by Jacob's passion for gardening and vigor for life. I headed home with a beautiful rose in my hand and a fresh zeal that my new friend had instilled in me.
