To what extent does Roy relate his distress to people in authority, such as Mr. Ryan, when Dana returns to school?
When Roy gets in school, Garrett tells him that Dana will be waiting for him after 7 th period and is going to snatch him before Roy can get on the bus. Now Roy has to think of something to avoid yet another confrontation. He has few options: if he eludes the bully, it will start all over again on Monday; if he reports it to the vice-principal, Dana will only receive a stern lecture that he’ll laugh off; if he tells his parents, that might withdraw him from Trace Middle School and send him to some private school he has no desire to attend; if he grovels and apologizes again, Dana will sense his weakness and continue to harass him; or he can stand and fight. Roy is also very aware of the effect his being in a fight can have on his mother. Being an only child is something he takes very seriously and has ever since his parents lost a baby girl in a miscarriage. However, his greatest weakness is his pride which makes him behave sometimes in ways he doesn’t understand. At the end of history class, Roy sticks with his teacher, Mr. Ryan, because he’s a former football player. Eventually, though, he finds himself alone in the halls. Then, as he walks by a janitor’s closet, he is grabbed and pulled inside by Dana.The scene changes to Curly and Chuck Muckle once more on the telephone. There has been mischief at the construction site again. Someone put poisonous snakes inside the chain-link fence and the dogs went beserk. Kalo, their trainer, is furious, because the dogs cost about $12,000 each and might have died from a snakebite. He pulls them from the job immediately. On top of the snakes, Kalo stepped into one of the owl burrows and sprained his ankle. Now Mother Paula’s will be responsible for that as well. Curly calls the same reptile wranglers that had removed the alligators, but when they arrive, the snakes are all gone. Muckle just orders him to get back to work on Monday morning.Meanwhile, in the janitor’s closet, Roy is getting the tar beaten out of him. Dana gets him in a bear hug and is once again cutting off his air, when suddenly the bully is lifted off him. Roy is unsure in the dark of the closet who has saved him, but when he peeks out of the closet, the hallway is clear. So, Roy streaks for the nearest exit.
Roy’s review of his options in dealing with Dana shows mature and intelligent introspection. He understands his weaknesses and strengths and his concern for being an only child on his parents is admirable. Then, when he finally is another brawl with Dana, he fights as well as he can against the bigger boy and that makes him admirable as well. He’s a character the reader can’t help but cheer on.
Hope my answer helps you.

How does Roy handle his conflict with Dana on a personal level?
Answer:
Roy calmly tells him that the terms in his letter of apology should be the end of their problems.
Explanation:
When Roy gets on the bus, all the kids grow quiet as he walks down the aisle. He has a bad feeling about it, but he doesn’t turn around once he finds a seat to see if Dana is behind him. Finally, though, he does turn around and says hi to Dana. Dana’s nose isn’t as bad now as it was, but he has a fat lip from someone popping him in the mouth. Dana threatens Roy, but Roy calmly tells him that the terms in his letter of apology should be the end of their problems. However, Dana doesn’t see it that way, especially since his friends are sitting there watching what he’s going to do. So, Roy tells him to go ahead and hit him and get it out of his system. Dana slaps him around three times and works it so the bus driver sees nothing. It seems like it’s going to get worse when suddenly, Dana sits up and slumps sourly against the bus window. A kid from the last bus stop has bravely chosen to sit right beside him.

Write a story in which forgiving someone plays an important part.
Answer: A story in which forgiveness plays an important part is as follows :
Explanation:
Once there lived a farmer named Ram. He was kind-hearted and honest. He lived in a village and owned a small piece of land where he grew crops and earned money by selling the produce harvested from his land. Everybody in his village loved him except his neighbor, Shyam. Shyam was dishonest and lazy. He was very jealous of Ram. Out of jealousy, he set Ram's land on fire just before the day of harvest. Ram realized what exactly had happened and decided to stay quiet. He worked hard to make his land cultivable again. One day, Ram heard cries of a boy coming from Shyam's hut. He rushed to find out what had happened and came to know that Shyam's son is suffering from a very dangerous disease. He immediately called his relative who was also a doctor. The doctor arrived as soon as possible and prescribed medicines after checking Shyam's son's health. Shyam's son's health soon started getting better and this made Shyam realize his mistakes. Shyam ran to Ram to thank him for his help and confessed all the sins he had committed. Ram told Shyam that he knew about the fire he set on his land but chose to forgive him. This act of forgiveness and kindness made Shyam change as a person. He not only helped Ram recultivate his land but also became a hard-working person himself.

Write the gist of this paragraph.
There were few towns, particularly in northwestern Europe, during the early Middle Ages. The rule of the feudal lords discouraged trade, and towns lived by trade. Each lord collected a toll, for “protection,” from all merchants who came into his neighborhood. A merchant paid many such tolls in traveling from one land to another. For example, a merchant taking a boatload of goods down the Loire River from Orléans had to pay 74 different tolls. Needless to say, the many tolls made goods expensive and trade difficult even in times of peace. During the frequent private wars trade became still more risky.
Answer:
Explanation: Towns in northwest Europe were mostly guarded by feudal lords in the early Middle Ages, who extorted tolls from traders in exchange for safety. For instance, 74 distinct tolls had to be paid by a merchant transporting a boatload of goods down the Loire River from Orléans, making commodities costly and trading difficult. Trade got riskier during the private wars.

Public Domain
1 A creative work is said to be in the public domain if there are no laws which restrict its use by the public at large. For instance, a work may be in the public domain if no laws establish proprietary rights over the work, or if the work or its subject matter are specifically excluded from existing laws.
2 Because proprietary rights are founded in national laws, an item may be public domain in one jurisdiction but not another. For instance, some works of literature are public domain in the US but not in the EU and vice versa.
3 The underlying idea that is expressed or manifested in the creation of a work generally cannot be the subject of copyright law (see idea-expression divide). Mathematical formulae will therefore generally form part of the public domain, to the extent that their expression in the form of software is not covered by copyright; however, algorithms can be the subject of a software patent in some jurisdictions.
4 Works created before the existence of copyright and patent laws also form part of the public domain. The Bible and the inventions of Archimedes are in the public domain. However, copyright may exist in translations or new formulations of these works.
5 Although "intellectual property" laws are not designed to prevent facts from entering the public domain, collections of facts organized or presented in a creative way, such as categorized lists, may be copyrighted. Collections of data with intuitive organization, such as alphabetized directories like telephone directories, are generally not copyrightable. In some countries copyright-like rights are granted for databases, even those containing mere facts. A sui generis database rights regime is in place in the European Union.
6 Works of the United States Government and various other governments are excluded from copyright law and may therefore be considered to be in the public domain in their respective countries. They may also be in the public domain in other countries as well.
7 Creative Commons [2], an organization which promotes the migration of works into the public domain as well as copyleft licensing schemes, holds that:
8 Public access to literature, art, music, and film is essential to preserving and building on our cultural heritage.
Which two phrases or sentences from the passage help the reader identify the meaning of the phrase, "proprietary rights"?
A) The creation of a work generally cannot be the subject of copyright law.
B) A sui generis database rights regime is in place in the European Union.
C) No laws which restrict its use by the public at large.
D) The Bible and the inventions of Archimedes are in the public domain.
E) Some works of literature are public domain in the US but not in the EU and vice versa.
Answer:
C) No laws which restrict its use by the public at large.
E) Some works of literature are public domain in the US but not in the EU and vice versa.
Explanation:
C) No laws which restrict its use by the public at large.
E) Some works of literature are public domain in the US but not in the EU and vice versa.
Both of these phrases/sentences mention the concept of laws that restrict the use of creative work, which is the definition of proprietary rights.

Most townspeople were merchants and artisans. Some merchants were little more than peddlers carrying their packs from village to village. Others brought goods by ship, riverboat, or pack train from distant lands to sell in town markets and fairs.

The right to do business in a town was a guarded privilege. The merchants and artisans banded together in special organizations for each trade or craft, called guilds. Only members of the guilds could sell goods or practice a trade within the town walls. Guild members all charged the same prices for the same quality work, and they limited the number of people permitted to follow a particular occupation. The shoemakers’ guild, for example, wanted to make sure that there were never more shoemakers in a particular town than could make a good living there.
Answer:
The gist of this paragraph is "Guilds limited the number of people allowed to do business in towns."
Explanation:
A gist is supposed to be brief, and it should state what a text is mainly about within 20 words or less, so you have to grab the main points only. It's basically a summary, but shorter.
In your particular paragraph, the main point lies here:
[Guilds] limited the number of people permitted to follow a particular occupation.
But, how do we know that?
Well, there is this one, specifically potent detail that gives it all:
"The shoemakers’ guild, for example, wanted to make sure that there were never more shoemakers in a particular town than could make a good living there."
I don't know if this detail is that strong to support that claim, but it suggests that for the shoemakers' businesses, they had to limit the amount of people there since if there's more, they might not make a good living.
Answer:
Guilds regulated the price and type of goods and trade within a town.
