I tried! I'm sorry, cats for the W.

Explanation:

Why are cats better then dogs? Well both cats and dogs are loved household pets. Dogs being known as "man's best friend." And cats being looked down opon by most, as many don't know the benefits of owning an amazing pet such as a cat.

Cats known for being relaxed creatures take very little work. Only needing a litterbox, bowls, scooper, and possible scratching post. Unlike dogs who require the essential bowls, crates, harness, leads, ect! Cats who are far less work, never needing a walk, nor bath as they clean themselves. As dogs need baths one or twice every two months, and 3-4 walks per day! Now with a dog there is not time to relax as they need lots of attention, so if your thinking of getting a dog kiss your free time goodbye.

Dogs and cats both do cost money, but dogs cost around $480-$3,470 per year compared to cats who cost around only $637 per year. So for price dogs are way out of many people's budget, cats are easier, cheaper and cleaner. For dogs you must clean up after them as they are more known for making accidents. Cats also have easier pick up, as for there litter box is easy clean up. just having to dump the litter into the trash and refill. For dogs having to scoop up it's business with a trash bag from the yard every few days.

Cats also adjust to your personality, your lazy? So is your cat! Your cat will adjust to your schedule, and to your personality. As cats are known for being more intelligent than a dog. Dogs depending on there breed are known for being one personality, Airedale terriers mostly all energetic, bulldog lazy one. For dogs you have to jabe a certain breed to have a pet to be perfect for you! Well Cats mostly adjust and adapt to you.

Also yes dogs are known for man's best friend, being the pet to play and hike with. To lay with and cuddle with but are they worth the price. The price of having to spend money, time, and attention

Therefore cats are a better pet than dogs. Easier, cleaner, adjustable, cheaper! Yes, dogs are cute, but nothing is better than a loaf cat and a full wallet.

Gwendolyn Brooks was an ambitious woman with a sincere love for writing and poetry that blazed from an early age. The poet began her career in poetry at the age of 13, when she published her first poem in a children’s magazine, and later, she went on to win a Pulitzer Prize.

Gwendolyn Elizabeth Brooks was born on June 7, 1917, in Topeka, Kansas. Her father, David Anderson Brooks, was a janitor. He aspired to be a doctor but decided to marry and raise a family instead. Her mother, Keziah Brooks, was both a school teacher and a classically trained pianist.

Brooks and her family moved to the South Side of Chicago when she was young. Her parents had moved to Chicago during the Great Migration but moved back to Topeka, Kansas, before Brook's birth to be closer to family. Brooks considered Chicago her hometown and stated that it deeply influenced her experiences and poetry.

Answer:

Direct

Explanation:

Its direct characterization because Digory says " you behaved in a disgusting way" which tells a character's personality in a straightfoward, firm way and does not hint their actions or description.

Example:

Direct: Jace was a generous man.

Indirect: Jace helped the old lady cross the street.

Jace's action in the indirect sentence ONLY hints how he was generous. The direct sentence says it in a straightfoward, direct way.

I hope this sort of helps

1. This quote is an example of Direct characterization.
2. Direct characterization happens when the author explicitly tells the reader what he or she wants us to learn about the character. Indirect characterization occurs when the author shows the reader parts of the character that helps them understand the character's personality and its effect on other characters.

Answer: Brave

Explanation: Handling a rescue on your own is very brave, but he still doesn't make the phone call.

Answer:

The short tale "Charles" by Shirley Jackson is about a kindergartener called Laurie who tells his parents about his friend Charles' regular pranks. Laurie recounts Charles's terrible behavior with other pupils every day and how he normally has a negative effect. Laurie's parents, who believe themselves superior, are horrified by the conduct depicted and become captivated by the type of parents who must have reared Charles. Laurie's mother discovers that there isn't a Charles in Laurie's class while she's at a PTA meeting.

There are several parallels between Laurie and Charles in Shirley Jackson's short tale "Charles." He comes home when Laurie starts school and behaves "insolently." Similar to this, Laurie tells the story of Charles, a schoolboy who got into trouble that day for being "fresh" (meaning "talking in a rude or impolite way"). It appears like Laurie is behaving just as Charles did in school. Later, Laurie refers to his father as "Pop, y'old dust mop" after making a joke about him. This is undoubtedly novel behavior.

The first day Laurie returns home:

"...the voice suddenly [becoming] raucous shouting, "Isn't anybody here?" During the second week:

"Charles yelled during the story hour......."

Charles and Laurie are both capable of screaming in inappropriate circumstances. Charles disrespects people by kicking his teacher and then the teacher's buddy, who comes in to instruct the kids. Charles appears to prefer to ignore all of the regulations put in place at school. He throws chalk and strikes a little girl with a see-saw, causing her to bleed to death.

Answer: look bellow

Explanation:

Part 1:

The short story, “Charles” is written by Shirley Jackson. The main character, Laurie, is a little boy who starts his first year of school. On the first day of school, Laurie changes his dress style and forgets to wave to his mom goodbye before leaving for school. After he comes back from school, his parents are interested about what he learnt and how is day was. Lauri, then talks about a boy named Charles, who is in his class and was getting spanked by his teacher for being "fresh". His parents get interested about Charles, but are still worried and concerned about Charles at the same time. Laurie starts behaving badly to his father and mother, which was very hard on all of them, and created issues.  Each day, he comes from school and tells stories about how Charles behaved that day and the punishment he was receiving. One day Charles hits his teacher because she asked him to use red crayons because he was coloring with green and he said that he wanted to use green. On the another day he hits a girl against the seesaw during recess, she then starts bleeding. Charles is spanked for hitting his teacher, misses recess and is asked to stay after school. By now, Charles has become an institution at Laurie’s home. Whenever someone behaves bad, that person is called “Charles.” Laurie 's parents think that Charles is a bad influence and wants to meet Charles’ parents. The story ends with a PTA meeting, by the concerned parents of Laurie. Turns out Charles was a figment of imagination of Laurie's mind.

Part 2:

The film is a little different from the short story, but had many similarities. Some differences being that the story is a bit aultered and the background and lighting for the film is different than the story.

1. Two Bit talks to the girls in a more respectful and playful manner compared to the way Dally did. While Dally was aggressive and rude, Two Bit jokes around with the girls and tries to impress them with his charm.

2. Pony tells the story of what happened to Johnny. He explains that Johnny was jumped by a group of Socs, who beat him up and left him unconscious on the train tracks. Johnny was saved by the quick thinking of Dally, who pulled him off the tracks just in time.

3. Pony notices that the Socs at the drive-in are more well-dressed and polished compared to the greaser boys. He also observes that the Socs are more confident and comfortable in their social environment, whereas the greasers are more tense and on edge.

In my personal opinion, smart technology has many benefits, such as security. Traditional, manually operated security systems are less trustworthy than smart technologies. Door sensors, alarm systems, security cameras, and video doorbells are examples of smart security devices that can alert building owners to potential threats to their property.
In my experience, being smartly secured is very important in order to live a stable life, be it your workplace, school, or home.

Hope it helps!
