hi, i go this from https://medium.com/. hope this is helpful
1. Decide on an idea
The first thing you’ll be asked by any prospective editor is “what is your book about?”. You need to have a good answer; one that you can ejaculate clearly in a few sentences or less. This is the same when you start writing. It can’t be about nothing, Seinfeld has done that already. This will of course evolve as your story does, but it is best to start simply. For my novel Hellbound, the theme was ‘a love story set in a contemporary Hell.’
2. Decide on a location
Where you set your story is going to have massive implications on who your characters are and how they react to their environment. ‘When’ can also be added in here, for example: a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.
3. Get to know your characters
It would be a strange book without any characters in it. Some will pop up as you go, but you should at the very least know who your main two characters are and how they interact with each other. Personality, looks, odd habits: the more specific you are the better. They will soon take on a life of their own and help write the story for you. Some people, like Clive Barker, actually sketch their characters first, so they become real in their minds.
4. Outline the story into 3 acts
Parts 1, 2 and 3. This is a formulaic way of writing, proven to maintain structure. You might think it’s mechanical, but when you’ve written 200,000 words and the story hasn’t progressed, you’ll be kicking yourself you didn’t have at least a simple plan.
5. Decide on themes
Books are a platform to explore key issues within society. Love, hate, racism, homosexuality, depression, or how you’d react to the pending zombie apocalypse. The best novels speak to us on multiple levels. This is your stage — shout your complex views from it and then contradict them, just for fun. For the Hellbound Trilogy I explored themes from sin, to utilitarianism, to how to best make a cup of tea (not too much sugar).
6. Create a chapter summary for the entire book.
This follows on from your ‘3 acts’. Again, this will change, but figure out how you’ll get from point A to B to C, when you’ll introduce characters, or drop a twist on your reader’s heads. This is your roadmap. I keep mine at the bottom of the manuscript so I can add or subtract notes as I go along. Without this, I’d get totally lost in tangents about things that don’t matter.
7. Write the opening lines.
The first sentences of a book can decide whether someone will go on to read the next thousand lines or so. Hone it. Make it sizzle. If it doesn’t yet, you can refine during editing, but it has to entice. Here’s an example from a short story I’m working on right now: The neon dawn shone through the window. It was the city that made the light. There was no sun.
This a great article on the power of opening sentences, by Mark Rubenstein.
8. Write the ending.
You need to end with a bang, but more importantly it will motivate you to finish. I find that if I have on paper exactly how something will conclude it’s easier to fill the gaps in between. Things might change as the story develops, and that’s okay. But, if you have some goal posts at the end, it’s easier to run in the right direction.
9. “Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end; then stop.”
Some of you will know that this is a Lewis Carol quote. It makes sense. Don’t get lost in writing bits and pieces and trying to shoehorn them in somehow. If you go from start to end then the story will flow much better. Should inspiration strike for a later part, you can write it and use your chapter summary to slot it in, but don’t get distracted by things that aren’t relevant to this book.
10. Edit, Edit, Edit.
The editing process is painful. It’s like slicing away bits of your own flesh. Mostly it’s warts, but sometimes it can feel like you’re amputating a limb. Here is an article from The Guardian on this subject. There are many more others out there like it. People aren’t flogging this horse because it’s dead. Often an good book can be turned great with the right adjustments.

The foolish man wastes me, The average man spends me, And wise man invests me, Yet all men succumb to me. What am I?
Final answer:
The riddle suggests an intangible concept that influences human behavior and is inevitable for all, which is time. Literature and philosophy extensively explore this theme as it is essential to human existence and legacy.
Explanation:
The riddle posed involves an abstract concept that is often personified in literature and philosophy. The answer to the riddle is time. Time is something that can be wasted by the foolish, spent by the average man, and invested by the wise man. However, all men ultimately succumb to it, as time is relentless and affects everyone. The references provided offer a contemplation of existence, wisdom, and the human condition, which are themes closely related to the concept of time and our interaction with it. Literary figures, like poets, and historical figures, like Socrates, often meditate on time and wisdom. They consider how individuals utilize the time given to them and are remembered or forgotten as time passes. These passages underscore the omnipresence of time in our lives and how it influences our actions and legacies.

In 300 words or more, write about how the Declaration of Independence informed the Gettysburg Address that President Abraham Lincoln gave. What impact did it have on Lincoln, and what impact did the Civil War and the Gettysburg Address have on the Union
The Gettysburg Speech is perhaps the most important speech in US history. This speech was delivered by Lincoln in less than two minutes, at the end of the American civil war. That's because the message he wanted to give was fast, clear and didn't need a lot of arguments, because it was evident that it was true.
Lincoln inspired by the principles of equality defended in the Declaration of Independence of the country, declared the end of the war based on the concept that the country was born to be a country of free people and owners of their own lives, the end of the war allowed freedom be offered to everyone, as the founding fathers wanted and fought for it. Thus, Lincoln established that the end of the war would bring a nation united in recovery and truly free.
in a few paragraphs, what was William Shakespeare's education?
Answer: Shakespeare probably began his education at the age of six or seven at the Stratford grammar school. Although we have no record of Shakespeare attending the school. It seems most likely he would've attended the Stratford Grammar School. Like most all of the great poets and dramatists of the time, Shakespeare learned his basic reading and writing skills from an ABC, or horn-book. Shakespeare's daily activities after he left school and before he re-emerged as a professional actor in the late 1580s are impossible to trace.
Explanation: I hope this helps. :)
Explanation:
William Shakespeare would have attended King Edward VI Grammar School in Stratford-upon-Avon from the age of 7 in 1871 and left school and formal edication when he was 14. During his time at school, the week was five full days of work and halk-day on Thursday for 40-44 weeks. Over 2,000 school hours done, rather than the average school hours. From 6am - 5pm. His education would include Latin taught from the Tudor text book which is known as Lily's Latin Grammar and they would be expected to translate Latin to Englisj and vice versa. William Shakespeare He would study the great classical authors and dramalists such as Oid, Plautus, Horace, Cicera and Seneca. His teachers were predominantly Catholic, so his education was influenced by his beliefs. William Shakespeare was expected to speak Latin at all times in order to improve his fluency in the language. Any boy caught speaking English at the school would be punished. The punishments were severe and painful. Fifty strokes of the cane was not uncommon

25. Which is NOT true of Fortunato? A. He was a connoisseur. C. He was fettered during the story. B. He absconded the catacombs. D. He implored greatly.
The incorrect option of Fortunato is he was fettered during the story. The correct option is C.
What is The Cask of Amontillado?The Cask of Amontillado's plot revolves around murder, treachery, and retribution as Montresor leads an intoxicated Fortunato into being trapped under a long-abandoned catacomb.
Poe's narrative makes excellent use of irony in the setting and character development. Fortunato is lured into a trap by Montresor, who is seeking revenge on him for an unidentified cause by enclosing him alive in the catacombs.
Montresor discloses at the conclusion of the tale that 50 years have passed since he exacted his retaliation, and Fortunato's body has remained undisturbed. The ideas of retaliation, and extreme irony are all represented by the title "The Cask of Amontillado." From the character names to the various instances of symbolism, the novel is replete with examples of these three themes.
Therefore, the correct option is C. He was fettered during the story.

#SPJ5
Fortunato from the story is a wine connoisseur and gets fettered in the catacombs, where he implores for release. He did not abscond the catacombs, making option B the incorrect statement.
The question asks which statement is NOT true about the character Fortunato from a literary text. Based on the provided excerpts, it is evident that Fortunato is indeed a connoisseur of wine, as he prides himself on his knowledge of Italian vintages and is sincere in his love for old wines. During the story, he was led into the catacombs by the narrator and was eventually fettered, or chained, to a wall inside a niche in the catacombs. And finally, once trapped, he implored greatly for his release. Thus, the statement that is NOT true about Fortunato is that he absconded the catacombs, as the text clearly indicates that he did not escape but was instead imprisoned there.

Answer:
A.
Explanation:
The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is a novel penned by Mark Twain. The novel narrates the adventures of Huckleberry Finn or 'Huck' as known by his friends. The novel is written in First Person Narrative.
The given quote appears in chapter 22 of the novel, where Huck goes to a circus. There a show by a quick-witted clown was to be performed. The show was seen by only twelve people and after the show, the duke hanged a handbill with a note written stating 'Ladies and children not admitted.' This was an advertising scheme by the duke to attract more audience to his show. The show was to be performed on 'The King’s Cameleopard' and thus does not permit women and children. This viewpoint conveys the message that such naughty thrills tend to tempt people.
So, the correct answer is option A.
Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World.
Slave owners fought back, arguing that owners should be able to list their slaves as property when they arrived in France and take them with them when they left. Though most parts of France agreed to this, law–makers in Paris hesitated. Pierre Lemerre the Younger made the case for the slaves. "All men are equal," he insisted in 1716—exactly sixty years before the Declaration of Independence.
To say that "all men are equal" in 1716, when slavery was flourishing in every corner of the world and most eastern Europeans themselves were farmers who could be sold along with the land they worked, was like announcing that there was a new sun in the sky. In the Age of Sugar, when slavery was more brutal than ever before, the idea that all humans are equal began to spread—toppling kings, overturning governments, transforming the entire world.
Sugar was the connection, the tie, between slavery and freedom. In order to create sugar, Europeans and colonists in the Americas destroyed Africans, turned them into objects. Just at that very same moment, Europeans—at home and across the Atlantic—decided that they could no longer stand being objects themselves. They each needed to vote, to speak out, to challenge the rules of crowned kings and royal princes. How could that be? Why did people keep speaking of equality while profiting from slaves? In fact, the global hunger for slave-grown sugar led directly to the end of slavery. Following the strand of sugar and slavery leads directly into the tumult of the Age of Revolutions. For in North America, then England, France, Haiti, and once again North America, the Age of Sugar brought about the great, final clash between freedom and slavery.
Which excerpt from the passage best states the authors' claim?
Answer:
"Following the strand of sugar and slavery leads directly into the tumult of the Age of Revolutions."
Explanation:
answered right on edgen
The excerpt that best states the authors' claim is the one that ties sugar production to the concepts of slavery and freedom, highlighting the contradiction and eventual move toward abolition.

How do the second and third paragraphs show that the extinction of dinosaur has divided the scientific community?
The debate over dinosaur extinction has divided the scientific community, with the impact hypothesis gaining wide support but facing challenges due to the inability for direct experimental testing. Diverse theories and the collection of supporting geological data contribute to an ongoing discussion.
Explanation:The extinction of the dinosaurs is a topic that has brought about diverse theories within the scientific community, causing a division among researchers. The impact hypothesis suggests that an extraterrestrial event, such as a large asteroid, was the primary cause of the mass extinction. This theory is supported by evidence such as a sharp spike in iridium levels found in geological layers and an impact crater in the Yucatán Peninsula. Despite the support, due to the nature of historical science, direct experimentation to prove this hypothesis is not possible. However, continued collection of geological and fossil data helps to support or refute this theory.
Other scientists consider different possibilities, such as long-term climatic changes, as contributing factors. Given the variety of potential causes and the complexity of Earth's history, the debate over the extinction of the dinosaurs is ongoing. Yet, a consensus is forming around the asteroid impact as a critical, if not the sole, cause of the Cretaceous-Paleogene mass extinction that coincided with the disappearance of dinosaurs and many other species approximately 65 million years ago.

Finding out your grade after a test
Final answer:
Finding your grade after a test entails systematically evaluating your performance, understanding how grades are assigned, and using feedback to adjust your study strategies. It's crucial to communicate with your instructor for insights and improvements.
Explanation:
Finding Your Grade After a Test: A Guide
Finding out your grade after a test involves several steps that help determine if your study strategy is effective. It's important to measure systematically what you have learned, often at the end of a course or school year. This can include standardized tests or other forms of assessment.
When you receive your grade, it's crucial to analyze it in context. Teachers assign letter grades based on performance, frequently using a grading curve. Let's say your class uses a bell curve; understanding where your grade falls on this curve can help you see how you compare to your peers.
Additionally, pay attention to the feedback on your tests or assignments. This feedback is usually delayed, often coming in the form of a score or grade. Since many assessments offer one opportunity to do well, taking this feedback seriously can guide your future study habits and adjustment strategies.
Remember, if you're unsure about how your grades are calculated or want to discuss your progress, it's beneficial to talk with your instructor. They can provide insight into your performance and help you make any necessary adjustments to your study approach.

Read the excerpt from Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry. I had gotten as far west as the Dakotas when my silent recitation was disturbed by a tapping on the porch. I lay very still. Mr. Morrison never made sounds like that.Which detail from the excerpt best helps the reader determine a tone of alarm? I had gotten as far west as the Dakotas my silent recitation a tapping on the porch Mr. Morrison never made sounds like that.
Answer:
The detail from the excerpt that best helps the reader determine a tone of alarm is "Mr. Morrison never made sounds like that."
Explanation:
The speaker was in silent recitation when she was interrupted by a tapping on the porch. So far, there is nothing that conveys a sense of alarm. A tapping on the porch could be a normal, expected occurrence, especially if it is a sound the speaker can recognize. What really determines a tone of alarm is the fact that the speaker lays very still because she does not recognize the sound. It is a sound Mr. Morrison never made. It is with this information that we get to know there is something strange, suspicious, and alarming about the tapping on the porch.
"Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry" is a novel by author Mildred D. Taylor. It discusses racial issues during the Great Depression through the eyes of the narrator and main character, Cassie Logan.

How does Two-Bit try to start the fight?
Answer:
Two-bit fights because it is a good way to blow off steam, and when someone deserves it.
Two-bit is “the oldest of the gang and the wisecracker of the bunch,” and his nickname comes from the fact that he always has to tell his perspective. He liked to fight, and shoplift. He does not need or want most of what he steals, but he likes the thrill.
"A fair fight isn't rough," Two-Bit said. "Blades are rough. So are chains and heaters and pool sticks and rumbles. Skin fighting isn't rough. It blows off steam better than anything. There's nothing wrong with throwing a few punches. Socs are rough….” (Ch. 2, p. 30)
Two-bit does not like the Socs because he does not think they play fair. They gang up on greasers, and they bring weapons to fights. As far as Two-bit is concerned, there is nothing wrong with fair fighting. No one can get seriously hurt and it is good entertainment. Greasers sometimes get into conflicts with each other, but they still stick up for one another when needed.
Two-bit has a strong sense of justice. He says that it’s all right if Dally gets what’s coming to him for slashing a car’s tires, because it’s fair. He also slaps Pony for making a snide remark to Johnny.
When Pony gets upset with Johnny and tells him he isn’t wanted at home, Johnny is clearly hurt. This upsets Two-bit’s sense of justice, and he lets Pony know.
Two-Bit slapped me a good one across the side of the head, and hard. "Shut your mouth, kid. If you wasn't Soda's kid brother I'd beat the tar out of you. You know better than to talk to Johnny like that." He put his hand on Johnny's shoulder. (Ch. 3, p. 44)
Pony apologizes. Although this is not a real fight, Two-bit implies that it could easily have been one if Pony wasn’t special to him as Soda’s brother. Two-bit is not afraid to fight with other greasers if he feels that they deserve it.
In many ways, Two-bit is the conscience of the gang. He has a clear moral center, and although his sense of right and wrong is different than many of us are used to, he espouses and reinforces real values.
