Read the paragraph.

if you get lost while hiking in the wilderness, don’t panic. most importantly, do not walk around aimlessly. stay on the trail. stop where you are and observe your surroundings. are there any landmarks that look familiar, such as large rocks, a creek, or river? check these against your map, and check your compass. listen for any familiar sounds—cars on a road, perhaps, or the voices of others who might you. if you don’t hear anything, do not go any farther. stay put, especially if you are injured or near exhaustion. if you need to spend the night in the woods, stay warm and keep yourself hydrated. set up camp in the open, so rescuers will be able to see you. use a signaling device, such as a mirror, a brightly colored pack, or make patterns in the snow. if you build a fire, be aware of area fire restrictions. many forest fires have been started by lost hikers or hunters.

to describe the best place to set up camp to get rescued

Read the two conclusions to cinderella. conclusion a: “this is not the true bride,” said he to the father; “have you no other daughters? ” then cinderella took her shoe off, and put on the golden slipper, and it fitted as if it had been made for her. and when he drew near the prince knew her, and said, “this is the right bride.” then he took cinderella on his horse and rode away. conclusion b: he obliged cinderella to sit down, and, putting the slipper to her little foot, he found it went on very easily, and fitted her as if it had been made of wax. the astonishment of her two sisters was great, but it was still greater when cinderella pulled out of her pocket the other slipper and put it on her foot. thereupon, in came her godmother, who, having touched cinderella's clothes with her wand, made them more magnificent than those she had worn before. and now her two sisters found her to be that beautiful lady they had seen at the ball. they threw themselves at her feet to beg pardon for all their ill treatment of her. cinderella took them up, and, as she embraced them, said that she forgave them with all her heart, and begged them to love her always. she was conducted to the young prince, dressed as she was. he thought her more charming than ever, and, a few days after, married her. cinderella, who was as good as she was beautiful, gave her two sisters a home in the palace, and that very same day married them to two great lords of the court. which conclusion to cinderella is stronger? why? conclusion a is stronger because it uses dialogue that readers understand the prince's feelings toward cinderella. conclusion b is stronger because it describes a surprising and positive resolution to the conflict between the characters. conclusion a is stronger because it contains an emotional moment in which cinderella learns something. conclusion b is stronger because it shows that all of the characters changed and got what they deserved.
