Read the passage.

excerpt from “Mohandas Gandhi: Truth in Action” by Vanessa Wright

“Thief,” thought Mohandas Gandhi. “I am a thief.”

Fifteen-year-old Mohandas looked at the gold in his hand. He had stolen it from his brother. It was not his first theft: earlier, he had stolen coins from the family’s servants. But now, the gold in his hand burned like a hot coal. He sat down and wrote a letter of confession to his father.

Would his father punish him? Mohandas watched as his father read the note. Tears rolled down his father’s cheeks, wetting the paper. But there was no scolding. Silently, his father tore the letter into pieces. Later, Gandhi realized that, in his father’s response, he had seen the principle of Ahimsa—of nonviolence—in action. He dedicated his life to that principle.

Which statement best describes how the anecdote affects the text?

It shows that Gandhi is untrustworthy.


It reveals that Gandhi learns the importance of nonviolence.


It proves that gold is important to Gandhi.


It demonstrates that as a teen Gandhi has a permissive father.

Should we fear failure? What are some good things that come out of failing at something? What are some downsides from failing at something? Explain in a 7 sentence response

Answers

if you never fail you will never learn. it is very important to fail, because you learn what to do right next time. For example, if you do a certain skill wrong in a sport, you know what you did wrong and how to fix it. however, there are some downsides to feeling. For an example if it was a very important day and you failed you might feel like you’re letting some people down. But as I said earlier you were learning from your mistakes and getting better

Answer:

No, we should not fear failure. Some good things that come out of failing are learning from what you did to make the mistake and not making that mistake again. Another good thing is that if you fail at something and someone goes to do the same thing after you they can learn from you so you are helping other people, potentially. If you fail at something then obviously it wasn't for you so it can give you an opportunity to try something different. A downside from failing though is your self-esteem. It can damage your self-esteem and how you look at yourself. There are good things and bad things about failing at something but we shouldn't fear failure because it helps make us who we are.

The greedy neighbor, hearing of this new piece of good luck, was filled with envy as before, and called on the old man and asked to borrow the wonderful mortar for a short time, pretending that he, too, sorrowed for the death of Shiro, and wished to make cakes for a festival to the dog’s memory.

The old man did not in the least wish to lend it to his cruel neighbor, but he was too kind to refuse. So the envious man carried home the mortar, but he never brought it back.

Several days passed, and Shiro’s master waited in vain for the mortar, so he went to call on the borrower, and asked him to be good enough to return the mortar if he had finished with it. He found him sitting by a big fire made of pieces of wood. On the ground lay what looked very much like pieces of a broken mortar. In answer to the old man’s inquiry, the wicked neighbor answered haughtily:

“Have you come to ask me for your mortar? I broke it to pieces, and now I am making a fire of the wood, for when I tried to pound cakes in it only some horrid smelling stuff came out.”

He only wanted it for himself instead of telling him something was wrong with it he smashed it to pieces making the neighbor shiros owner exreammly upset so the point of view from the greedy neightbor is that he didnt care about others feelings and he was just being selfish

these bacteria

Answers

Food and living space seem like resources trust would slow the bacteria down

Bacteria are prokaryotes that have a reproduction rate of 20 minutes. Carbon dioxide and light are least likely to slow the reproductive rate. Thus, options A and C are correct.

What is the reproductive rate?

The reproductive rate is the rate of the growth in a population over time that is affected by several factors including food, space, etc. The bacteria have a reproductive rate of 20 minutes which can double their population.

The factors like carbon dioxide and light do not affect the reproductive rate of the bacteria as they are not the crucial and as important as food and space for their reproduction.

Therefore, light and carbon dioxide are least likely to affect reproduction.
