Answer:
hmmm well Critical thinking is a desire to seek, patience to doubt, fondness to meditate, slowness to assert, readiness to consider, carefulness to dispose and set in order; and hatred for every kind of imposture. Critical thinking is clear, reasonable, reflective thinking focused on deciding what to believe or do. It means asking probing questions like “How do we know?” or “Is this true in every case or just in this instance?” It involves being skeptical and challenging assumptions rather than simply memorizing facts or blindly accepting what you hear or read.
Imagine, for example, that you’re reading a history textbook. You wonder who wrote it and why, because you detect certain biases in the writing. You find that the author has a limited scope of research focused only on a particular group within a population. In this case, your critical thinking reveals that there are “other sides to the story.”
Who are critical thinkers, and what characteristics do they have in common? Critical thinkers are usually curious and reflective people. They like to explore and probe new areas and seek knowledge, clarification, and new solutions. They ask pertinent questions, evaluate statements and arguments, and they distinguish between facts and opinion. They are also willing to examine their own beliefs, possessing a manner of humility that allows them to admit lack of knowledge or understanding when needed. They are open to changing their mind. Perhaps most of all, they actively enjoy learning, and seeking new knowledge is a lifelong pursuit. This may well be you!
No matter where you are on the road to being a critical thinker, you can always more fully develop and finely tune your skills. Doing so will help you develop more balanced arguments, express yourself clearly, read critically, and glean important information efficiently. Critical thinking skills will help you in any profession or any circumstance of life, from science to art to business to teaching. With critical thinking, you become a clearer thinker and problem solver.

Answer:
Completing a story with an already given opening sentences.
Explanation:
A king and queen had a beautiful princess. She was proud and vain. The king and the queen were really worried. They thought of marrying her off but she rejected every proposal that came her way. This greatly worried her parents who did not want their princess to be a ruthless and proud princess.
So, to help the princess learn how to be better and be considerate of the subjects, they decided to take her to the countryside where she will be left at the hands of an old woman. She will help the young princess learn how to be self-efficient, learn the basics of survival, and also how to help people in need.
As she grew up, the princess slowly learned the value of sympathy, community socialization, and also the importance of the people's voice in the kingdom.
The king and queen were finally able to get the princess to be who they want her to be. And the princess also realized why her parents did what they did.
help this is a question from where the red fern grows The narrator helps the old redbone hound. Have you or anyone in your family ever helped a stray animal? If so, when and why?
Answer:
I adopt old dogs from the shelter and I have been known to take in strays growing up. My parents always knew that I was going to bring some critter home. After I got married, my husband learned quickly that I go out and find me the lost animals.
Explanation:
Taking in the older dogs has been so rewarding. A lot of people overlook them and they only want a young puppy. Having the older dogs, you must realize that they come with some health problems, but my goal is to always give them a sense of love and security before they pass away. You also have to remember that they are going to die while with you - but giving them a good life is great for you and the dog.
The scene where Simon meets the "Lord of the Flies" is probably the most famous scene in the book, and that's why we have only one question today, so that we can focus on it.

3. One day, Bruno goes outside and reads the plaque on the bench near the garden: "Presented on the occasion of the opening of Auschwitz Camp, June nineteen forty" (9.523).
4. Bruno will explore everything that he's been looking at through his window. The woods that lead to the camp with the tall fence, smoke stacks, and people in the striped pajamas.

Has anyone heard the Radio Broadcast "Sorry wrong number"? please help!
Answer:
Main suspect:
The suspect of the murder is Mr. Stevenson, the husband of Mrs. Stevenson.
Motive:
The motive behind the murder is because Mrs. Stevenson has been sick for a very long time. So, it seems Mr. Stevenson wanted to get rid of her. An evidence: "AGNES: …has scarcely left my side since I took sick twelve years ago…"
Alibi:
The suspect has an alibi. In order not to be suspected, he sent a Telegram to Mrs. Stevenson informing her that he will not be available that night due to an urgent business he was going for in Boston.
Evidence to support answer: "WESTERN U: The telegram is as follows: (reading) Mrs. Elbert Stevenson. 53 north Sutton Place, New York, New York. Darling, terribly sorry. Tried to get you for last hour, but line busy. Leaving for Boston eleven PM tonight on urgent business. Back tomorrow afternoon. Keep happy. Love. Signed, Elbert."
Evidence:
Some of the evidences that points to Mr. Stevenson as the one responsible for the murder are:
1. Mr. Stevenson's phone line was kept busy all through.
Evidence from text: "AGNES: Operator, I’ve been trying to call Murray Hill 4-0098 for the last half hour and it’s been busy. I don’t see how it could possibly be busy that long. Can you try that number for me, please."
2. The suspect knew that a train passes by 11:15 and definitely it is someone that knew that area very well; which is Mr. Stevenson.
Evidence: "MAN: (OFF MIC) What’s that? (ON MIC) Just a minute, George. (PAUSE) Oh, our client tells me that at 11:15, a train crosses the bridge. It makes a noise in case a window is open and she should scream."
3. Mr. Stevenson made up an alibi in order not to be available that night.
Evidence: "WESTERN U: The telegram is as follows: (reading) Mrs. Elbert Stevenson. 53 north Sutton Place, New York, New York. Darling, terribly sorry. Tried to get you for last hour, but line busy. Leaving for Boston eleven PM tonight on urgent business. Back tomorrow afternoon. Keep happy. Love. Signed, Elbert."
Explanation:
"Sorry, Wrong Number" is a play that was written by Lucille Fletcher. The play was a radio broadcast which was originally produced and broadcast live by Columbia Broadcasting. The original broadcast took place on May 25, 1943.
The drama tells the story of a woman who was an invalid and overheard the conversation of two men who were trying to kill a woman. She became restless and tried to stop the murder by informing the phone operators and the police but none was able to help.
Later, it dawned on her that she was the target of the murder. But unfortunately she was murdered. From all indications in the story, it was found out that her husband, Mr. Stevenson was behind the murder.

Read John Muir's "Calypso Borealis" and answer the question.
[1] After earning a few dollars working on my brother-in law's farm near Portage [Wisconsin], I set off on the first of my long lonely excursions, botanising in glorious freedom around the Great Lakes and wandering through innumerable tamarac and arbor-vitae swamps, and forests of maple, basswood, ash, elm, balsam, fir, pine, spruce, hemlock, rejoicing in their bound wealth and strength and beauty, climbing the trees, revelling in their flowers and fruit like bees in beds of goldenrods, glorying in the fresh cool beauty and charm of the bog and meadow heathworts, grasses, carices, ferns, mosses, liverworts displayed in boundless profusion.
[2] The rarest and most beautiful of the flowering plants I discovered on this first grand excursion was Calypso borealis (the Hider of the North). I had been fording streams more and more difficult to cross and wading bogs and swamps that seemed more and more extensive and more difficult to force one's way through. Entering one of these great tamarac and arbor-vitae swamps one morning, holding a general though very crooked course by compass, struggling through tangled drooping branches and over and under broad heaps of fallen trees, I began to fear that I would not be able to reach dry ground before dark, and therefore would have to pass the night in the swamp and began, faint and hungry, to plan a nest of branches on one of the largest trees or windfalls like a monkey's nest, or eagle's, or Indian's in the flooded forests of the Orinoco described by Humboldt.
[3] But when the sun was getting low and everything seemed most bewildering and discouraging, I found beautiful Calypso on the mossy bank of a stream, growing not in the ground but on a bed of yellow mosses in which its small white bulb had found a soft nest and from which its one leaf and one flower sprung. The flower was white and made the impression of the utmost simple purity like a snowflower. No other bloom was near it, for the bog a short distance below the surface was still frozen, and the water was ice cold. It seemed the most spiritual of all the flower people I had ever met. I sat down beside it and fairly cried for joy.
[4] It seems wonderful that so frail and lovely a plant has such power over human hearts. This Calypso meeting happened some forty-five years ago, and it was more memorable and impressive than any of my meetings with human beings excepting, perhaps, Emerson and one or two others. When I was leaving the University, Professor J.D. Butler said, "John, I would like to know what becomes of you, and I wish you would write me, say once a year, so I may keep you in sight." I wrote to the Professor, telling him about this meeting with Calypso, and he sent the letter to an Eastern newspaper [The Boston Recorder] with some comments of his own. These, as far as I know, were the first of my words that appeared in print.
[5] How long I sat beside Calypso I don't know. Hunger and weariness vanished, and only after the sun was low in the west I splashed on through the swamp, strong and exhilarated as if never more to feel any mortal care. At length I saw maple woods on a hill and found a log house. I was gladly received. "Where ha ye come fra? The swamp, that awfu' swamp. What were ye doin' there?" etc. "Mony a puir body has been lost in that muckle, cauld, dreary bog and never been found." When I told her I had entered it in search of plants and had been in it all day, she wondered how plants could draw me to these awful places, and said, "It's god's mercy ye ever got out."
[6] Oftentimes I had to sleep without blankets, and sometimes without supper, but usually I had no great difficulty in finding a loaf of bread here and there at the houses of the farmer settlers in the widely scattered clearings. With one of these large backwoods loaves I was able to wander many a long wild fertile mile in the forests and bogs, free as the winds, gathering plants, and glorying in God's abounding inexhaustible spiritual beauty bread. Storms, thunderclouds, winds in the woods—were welcomed as friends.
The words that Muir uses in his essay reveal his view that nature
is filled with countless opportunities to discover rare plants
needs to be conquered and controlled by human exploration
offers many unique challenges for the mind, body, and spirit
presents endless possibilities to experience and appreciate
