were reading the hobbit in ela right now and i havent remembered a single thing can someone summarize it for me? and please add details about bilbo
Answer:
Of course! I LOVE this book!
Explanation:
Bilbo Baggins lives a quiet, peaceful life in his comfortable hole at Bag End. Bilbo lives in a hole because he is a hobbit—one of a race of small, plump people about half the size of humans, with furry toes and a great love of good food and drink. Bilbo is quite content at Bag End, near the bustling hobbit village of Hobbiton, but one day his comfort is shattered by the arrival of the old wizard Gandalf, who persuades Bilbo to set out on an adventure with a group of thirteen militant dwarves. The dwarves are embarking on a great quest to reclaim their treasure from the marauding dragon Smaug, and Bilbo is to act as their “burglar.” The dwarves are very skeptical about Gandalf’s choice of a burglar, and Bilbo is terrified to leave his comfortable life to seek adventure. But Gandalf assures both Bilbo and the dwarves that there is more to the little hobbit than meets the eye. Shortly after the group sets out, three hungry trolls capture all of them except for Gandalf. Gandalf tricks the trolls into remaining outside when the sun comes up, and the sunlight turns the nocturnal trolls to stone. The group finds a great cache of weapons in the trolls’ camp. Gandalf and the dwarf lord Thorin take magic swords, and Bilbo takes a small sword of his own. The group rests at the elfish stronghold of Rivendell, where they receive advice from the great elf lord Elrond, then sets out to cross the Misty Mountains. When they find shelter in a cave during a snowstorm, a group of goblins who live in the caverns beneath the mountain takes them, prisoner. Gandalf leads the dwarves to a passage out of the mountain, but they accidentally leave behind Bilbo. Wandering through the tunnels, Bilbo finds a strange golden ring lying on the ground. He takes the ring and puts it in his pocket. Soon he encounters Gollum, a hissing, whining creature who lives in a pool in the caverns and hunts fish and goblins. Gollum wants to eat Bilbo, and the two have a contest of riddles to determine Bilbo’s fate. Bilbo wins by asking the dubious riddle, “What have I got in my pocket?” Gollum wants to eat Bilbo anyway, and he disappears to fetch his magic ring, which turns its wearer invisible. The ring, however, is the same one Bilbo has already found, and Bilbo uses it to escape from Gollum and flee the goblins. He finds a tunnel leading up out of the mountain and discovers that the dwarves and Gandalf have already escaped. Evil wolves known as Wargs pursue them, but Bilbo and his comrades are helped to safety by a group of great eagles and by Beorn, a creature who can change shape from a man into a bear. The company enters the dark forest of Mirkwood, and, making matters worse, Gandalf abandons them to see to some other urgent business. In the forest, the dwarves are caught in the webs of some giant spiders, and Bilbo must rescue them with his sword and magic ring. After slaying his first spider, Bilbo names his sword Sting. Shortly after escaping the spiders, the unlucky dwarves are captured by a group of wood elves who live near the river that runs through Mirkwood. Bilbo uses his ring to help the company escape and slips the dwarves away from the elves by hiding them inside barrels, which he then floats down the river. The dwarves arrive at Lake Town, a human settlement near the Lonely Mountain, under which the great dragon sleeps with Thorin’s treasure. After sneaking into the mountain, Bilbo talks to the sly dragon Smaug, who unwittingly reveals that his armorlike scales have a weak spot near his heart. When Bilbo steals a golden cup from the dragon’s hoard, Smaug is furious and flies out of the mountain to burn Lake Town in his rage. Bard, a heroic archer, has learned the secret about Smaug’s weakness from thrush, and he fires an arrow into the dragon’s heart, killing him. Before Smaug dies, however, he burns Lake Town to the ground. The humans of Lake Town and the elves of Mirkwood march to the Lonely Mountain to seek a share of the treasure as compensation for their losses and aid, but Thorin greedily refuses, and the humans and elves besiege the mountain, trapping the dwarves and the hobbit inside. Bilbo sneaks out to join the humans in an attempt to bring peace. When Thorin learns what Bilbo has done, he is livid, but Gandalf suddenly reappears and saves Bilbo from the dwarf lord’s wrath. At this moment, an army of goblins and Wargs marches on the mountain, and the humans, elves, and dwarves are forced to band together to defeat them. The goblins nearly win, but the arrival of Beorn and the eagles help the good armies win the battle. After the battle, Bilbo and Gandalf return to Hobbiton, where Bilbo continues to live. He is no longer accepted by respectable hobbit society, but he does not care. Bilbo now prefers to talk to elves and wizards, and he is deeply content to be back among the familiar comforts of home after his grand and harrowing adventures.
underline words in the diagram below with technical,Figurative,or connotative meanings
Please help me
Answer:
The second one is technical. Why? Well, a technical meaning is something very literal and you don't need to guess what it means. It describes the part of the bee literally. It's the exact opposite of figurative wording. You can think of it as the textbook definition.
The third part of the table is figurative language and it means that (with this type of figurative language) it is comparing the eyes of the bee to those of an alien which we know are not actually alien eyes (I mean...part of me doesn't want to find out if this is true). It's not literal and you kinda have to image it in your head. It is the exact opposite of technical language and describes something playfully (in a way) and is NOT the "textbook definition."

Now it is time to write about some of the poems you’ve read and studied! So far in this unit, you have examined the following works: “The Rainy Day,” “Invictus,” and “The Mending Wall.” Select two of these works and, in a well-developed response of at least two paragraphs, compare and contrast them.
Your response must address the following in each poem:
at least one element, such as conflict, characterization, or setting
literary point of view
at least one literary technique, such as flashback, foreshadowing, dialogue, or word choice
Poetic structure
Remember to write in complete, grammatically correct sentences and to avoid errors in usage, mechanics, and spelling.
Answer:
"The Rainy Day" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow and "Invictus" by William Ernest Henley encourage people to keep going when things get hard. Longfellow wrote "The Rainy Day," and Henley wrote "Invictus." There are many things that these poems have in common, but each one has its own literary point of view, conflict, characters, setting, and style of poetry.
Having to deal with problems adds tension to both poems. In "The Rainy Day," the narrator struggles to understand how decisions and actions in the past have led to their current situation, while "Invictus" focuses on how to use inner strength to deal with bad luck. So, the heroes and villains of the poems are shown in different ways. The narrator of "The Rainy Day" is the protagonist, but "Invictus" has no name or face. "The Rainy Day" is a story that makes you think more.
Finally, "The Rainy Day" and "Invictus" are about being strong when things are hard, but their characters, points of view, and writing styles are different. "Invictus" has a wider appeal than "The Rainy Day," which is about a single person. Even though they are different, both poems use vivid images and repeat themes to make readers feel strong emotions.

Why should the school years be shorter? I need facts and quotes
Answer:
Explanation:
As a (High school, Middle, or Elementary) student who has to go to school every day, I think that the school years should be shorter for a lot of reasons. According to the National Education Association, students spend an average of 1,000 hours in school each year. This long period of schooling can lead to mental exhaustion, lack of motivation, and burnout among students. Moreover, research has shown that students who attend shorter school years tend to have better academic performance than those who attend traditional-length school years. For example, a study conducted by the University of Virginia found that students who participated in a school program that had a shorter year had better standardized test scores and higher graduation rates than their peers who attended longer programs.
Shortening the school year would also provide benefits for teachers who are responsible for instructing their students. A study conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics found that classroom teachers often spend an average of 1,400 hours per year in the classroom, and this can be a very grueling experience. Shortening the school year would ease the heavy load placed on teachers and give them more time to rest and recharge. Additionally, it would also give them time to focus on professional development and improve their instructional strategies, which would ultimately benefit their students. In conclusion, shortening the school year would enable students and teachers to take a much-needed break and come back to school refreshed and ready to learn and teach effectively.

"My Escape from Slavery"
by Frederick Douglass
My free life began on the third of September, 1838. On the morning of the fourth of that month, after an anxious and most perilous but safe journey, I found myself in the big city of New York, a FREE MAN—one more added to the mighty throng which, like the confused waves of the troubled sea, surged to and fro between the lofty walls of Broadway. Though dazzled with the wonders which met me on every hand, my thoughts could not be much withdrawn from my strange situation. For the moment, the dreams of my youth and the hopes of my manhood were completely fulfilled. The bonds that had held me to "old master" were broken. No man now had a right to call me his slave or assert mastery over me. I was in the rough and tumble of an outdoor world, to take my chance with the rest of its busy number.
I have often been asked how I felt when first I found myself on free soil. There is scarcely anything in my experience about which I could not give a more satisfactory answer. A new world had opened upon me. If life is more than breath and the "quick round of blood," I lived more in that one day than in a year of my slave life. It was a time of joyous excitement which words can but tamely describe. In a letter written to a friend soon after reaching New York, I said: "I felt as one might feel upon escape from a den of hungry lions." Anguish and grief, like darkness and rain, may be depicted; but gladness and joy, like the rainbow, defy the skill of pen or pencil. During ten or fifteen years I had been, as it were, dragging a heavy chain which no strength of mine could break; I was not only a slave, but a slave for life. I might become a husband, a father, an aged man, but through all, from birth to death, from the cradle to the grave, I had felt myself doomed. All efforts I had previously made to secure my freedom had not only failed, but had seemed only to rivet my fetters (fasten my chains) the more firmly, and to render my escape more difficult. Baffled, entangled, and discouraged, I had at times asked myself the question, "May not my condition after all be God's work, and ordered for a wise purpose, and if so, is not submission my duty?" A contest had in fact been going on in my mind for a long time, between the clear consciousness of right and the plausible (reasonable) make-shifts of theology and superstition. The one held me an abject (hopeless) slave—a prisoner for life, punished for some transgression in which I had no lot nor part; and the other counseled me to manly endeavor to secure my freedom. This contest was now ended; my chains were broken, and the victory brought me unspeakable joy.

How does the historical setting of the work affect the main character's actions and emotions?
The historical setting of the work affects the main character's actions and emotions because, since the setting is back when slavery was still around, there wasn't really certain things that would make anyone happy. According to the book My Escape from Slavery, "The one held me an abject (hopeless) slave—a prisoner for life, punished for some transgression in which I had no lot nor part; and the other counseled me to manly endeavor to secure my freedom. This contest was now ended; my chains were broken, and the victory brought me unspeakable joy." When finally Douglass' chains were gone, he could actually be happy. A prisoner for doing nothing wrong is a very horrible thing, and no one would ever be happy to be one. Though, once they have been freed, they could find joy.

The Mystery of Loch Ness
By Kayden Mitchell
Of all the mysteries in the world, none has been as popular as that of the Loch Ness Monster. Perhaps the biggest mystery is whether it is convincing evidence or a simple desire to believe that keeps the myth alive.
Loch Ness is a lake in Scotland. The loch, or lake, is known for sightings of a mysterious monster. Most who see this monster, known as Nessie, describe something with a long neck and several humps above the water. Sometimes the "monster" is moving in these sightings, and sometimes it is still. Many have suggested that Nessie might be a plesiosaur (plea-see-a-soar), an aquatic dinosaur that was trapped in the loch after the last ice age.
The plesiosaur theory presents several problems. First, the plesiosaur is an air breather. Such a creature would need to surface often and, therefore, be seen more frequently. Second, it's unlikely that the same creature has lived in the loch since the last ice age. Today's creature would have to be the offspring of an original plesiosaur trapped long ago. This would suggest multiple creatures in the loch (needed to produce offspring). Again, sightings would be more frequent if this were the case.
So from a purely logical stand point, the existence of such a large and ancient creature is unlikely. But assume for a minute that it is possible. What would a plesiosaur need to live in an enclosed lake?
Tropical waters: Scientists believe plesiosaurs were warm-blooded. Like crocodiles and alligators, plesiosaurs would need to live in warm waters. The loch is very cold with temperatures averaging about 40 degrees Fahrenheit (4.4 Celsius).
Food: Like other warm-blooded creatures, plesiosaurs would need a large quantity of food. If there is a group of Nessies, then even more food would be needed. Because the loch is full of silt (underwater dust) not much light gets into the deepest areas. So the food chain, which would depend on plankton, is very weak at its base. As a result, there is probably not enough food to support such a large creature.
However, the plesiosaur theory is not the only one. Many other ideas attempt to explain the sightings and "photographs." But two separate sonar surveys of the loch have not found any evidence of a creature larger than a salmon. The last survey,1 completed in 2007 by the British Broadcasting Company (BBC), involved 600 different sonar beams. Using satellite navigation systems, the team made sure every inch of the loch was searched. The team found nothing.
With cell phones and digital cameras, one would think that sightings of Nessie would increase. This has not happened. The BBC team believes the legend of Nessie has endured because people see what they want to see. To prove this, the team used a fence post, raising it before groups of tourists. Afterwards several of the tourists asked to draw pictures of what they had seen drew pictures of a monster's head.
1"BBC 'proves' Nessie does not exist." 27 July, 2003.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/3096839.stm
Based on the text, what is the main result of scientists having studied the plesiosaur?
The people who claim to have seen Nessie can be proven to have been dishonest.
The sightings have decreased rapidly since the studies were released.
We can conclusively rule out the existence of modern plesiosaurs.
We know enough to rule out a plesiosaur as a likely Nessie creature.

You are asked to revise the following sentence so it contains no dangling or misplaced modifiers:
We hid behind the bushes waiting for squirrels holding our cameras.
Which choice is the best answer?
There is no revision needed. The original sentence is correct as it is.
Holding our cameras, we hid behind the bushes waiting for squirrels.
Holding our cameras, we waited for squirrels hiding behind the bushes.
We waited for squirrels hiding behind the bushes holding our cameras.
Answer: Holding our cameras, we hid behind the bushes and waited for squirrels.
Explanation:
The original sentence, "We hid behind the bushes waiting for squirrels holding our cameras," contains a dangling modifier. It suggests that the squirrels were holding our cameras instead of us. To correct this, we need to rephrase the sentence so that the subject doing the action is mentioned.
One possible revision is, "Holding our cameras, we hid behind the bushes and waited for squirrels." This revision ensures that the phrase "holding our cameras" correctly modifies "we." It conveys that while holding our cameras, we hid behind the bushes and waited for squirrels.
By rephrasing the sentence, we maintain clarity and remove any imprecision regarding who is holding the cameras and waiting for the squirrels. This revision improves the sentence's structure and eliminates the issue of dangling or misplaced modifiers.

Grabbing a small object, such as an apple, may seem automatic and easy. But few people consider the complex biological mechanism underlying this simple act. Neurons in the brain instantly fire in patterns that send commands down the spinal cord. These commands are relayed to muscle tissue in the arm. The tissue contracts, raising the arm, extending an elbow, or flexing the wrist and fingers. For some people with spinal cord injuries, those commands are hindered by their damaged nervous systems. Their brains are no longer able to send messages throughout their bodies. For these people, these actions may require substantial effort or be completely impossible.
