Icould have given up, but i thought about my grandmother. she always told me that "people who believe that science is the answer to everything are missing out on everything else." with her words in mind, i searched some more. there were many facts that hinted that dragons may not be fictional. i noticed that cultures across the world all described dragons in similar ways. this was odd because they had no way to communicate with each other. i found dragons mentioned in more than just stories. they appeared in old legal papers, in the travel logs of marco polo, and in the bible. i saw that the chinese calendar uses a different animal each year. dragons are included along with eleven real animals. i began to believe it was a real possibility that all of these people were talking about a creature that actually existed.

the text discusses the chinese calendar by writing, "dragons are included along with eleven real animals."

what does that imply?

a.)dragons are the only fake animal on the chinese calendar.
b.)dragons are not the only fake animal on the chinese calendar.
c.)dragons are real because all the other animals on the calendar are fake.
d.)dragons are real because all the other animals on the calendar for real

hi there!

one thousand and one nights, also called the arabian nights is a collection of middle eastern tales compiled in arabic during the islamic golden age, dated from the 8th to the 14th century. this collection was compiled of largely middle eastern and indian stories with an uncertain date and autorship whose tales such as aladdin, ali baba and sinbad the sailor -these ones were the most popular ones, the ones that have almost become part of western folklore.

as in much medieval european literature, the stories contained in this collection are set within a frame story. its scene is central asia, as known as "the islands or peninsulae of india and china", where king shahryar kills his wife after discovering her infidelities and as well as any other who betrayed him.   then, loathing all womankind, he marries and kills his new wife each day until no more candidates could have been found. his vizier had two daughters, scheherezade and dunyazad. the elder one -scheherezade- having devised a scheme to save herself and the others insisted that her father needed to give her in marriage to the king. each evening, she used to tell a story leaving it incomplete and promising to finish it the following night. the stories kept the king very interested, so eager to hear evey ending of each story, that he puts off her execution from day to day and finally he decided to give up with his plan. these stories are contained within the collection of 1001 nights, the bulk of the text is in prose, although verse is usually used for songs and riddles to express better the heightened emotion of them.
