The ques The young woman drew her head in. She went into the coupe and sat down. Out of the window,
on the other side, there was nothing: sand and bush; a thorn tree. Back through the open
doorway, past the figure of her husband in the corridor, the was the station, the voices, wooden
animals waving, running feet. Her eye followed the funny little valance of scrolled wood that
outlined the chalet roof of the station: she thought of the lion and smiled. That bit of fur round
the neck. But the wooden buck, the hippos, the elephants, the baskets that already bulked out
of their brown paper under the seat on the luggage rack! How will they look at home? Where
will you put them? What will they mean away from the places you found them? Away from the
unreality of the last few weeks? The young man outside. But he is not part of the unreality; he
is for good now. Odd... somewhere there was an idea that he, that living with him, was part of
the holiday, the strange places,

1. List three quotes from the passage above where the writer is using descriptive language.

this is the answer , p = 1 + (1/10)x

step-by-step explanation:

we have,

at sea level pressure is 1 atmosphere (i.e at x =0, p0=1 atmosphere)

at depth 23 meters , pressure = 3.3 atmosphere

since the pressure increases at constant rate as the depth increases, so we can write a relation as:

p =p0 +   kx   , where p is the pressure  , p0 is the initial pressure, x is the depth and k is constant rate of increasing.

to find constant rate k, plug p = 3.3 , p0 = 1 and x= 23 meters

we get,

  3.3 = 1 + k * 23

k = 2.3 / 23   = 1/10

so we can write the function formula as:   p = 1 + (1/10)x

there are two central themes in  the miracle worker: that the human spirit can triumph over even the most daunting of disabilities and that a dedicated teacher can transform the lives of those with whom he or she comes into contact. these inspirational themes have long been personified in the widely known true-life relationship between helen keller and annie sullivan, but  the miracle worker  also dramatizes collateral issues that extend beyond the particular case. underlying helen’s process of learning basic principles of what annie terms “obedience” (decorum, etiquette, and hygiene), there are more universal lessons of self-governance—the inculcation of self-restraint instead of willfulness, the development of self-discipline instead of self-indulgence. only when these lessons have been mastered can helen begin to acquire language—which, annie says, “is to the mind more than light is to the eye.”

the gas pressure p, gas volume v, and gas temperature t are given in the formula:   pv=nrt,

r is the gas constant, and n is the number of gas moles.

if the container is cooled and remains under atmospheric pressure, where r is a constant that does not change, the volume of the container remains the same, the conclusion is drawn that, with all other values ​​unchanged, the number of gas moles n, is decreases.

the right answer is a.
