From “Commencement Address to the Santa Fe Indian School”
I am so passionate about this because your communities need you. They need you to develop your potential and become who you’re meant to be. And that goes for every student in here who is thinking about dropping out, who is feeling discouraged. Your community needs you. And more than ever before, our world needs you, too.
And you don’t need your First Lady to tell you that. All you have to do is tune in to the news and you’ll see that right now, some of the loudest voices in our national conversation are saying things that go against every single one of the values that you’ve been living at this school. They’re telling us that we should disrespect others because of who they are or where they come from or how they worship. They’re telling us that we should be selfish—that folks who are struggling don’t deserve our help, that we should just take what we can from life and not worry about anyone else. And they’re saying that it’s okay to keep harming our planet and using our land, our air, our water however we wish.
But, graduates, you all know that those are not the values that shape good citizens. Those are not the values that build strong families and communities and nations. You know this. So we desperately need your voices and your values in this conversation reminding us that we’re all connected, we’re all obligated to treat one another with respect, to act with integrity, to give back to those in need. Now, I know that perhaps I’m asking a lot of all of you. And I know that sometimes all those obligations might feel like a heavy burden. I also know that many of you have already faced and overcome challenges in your lives that most young people can’t even begin to imagine—challenges that have tested your courage, your confidence, your faith, and your trust.
But, graduates, those struggles should never be a source of shame—never—and they are certainly not a sign of weakness. Just the opposite. Those struggles are the source of your greatest strengths. Because by facing adversity head on and getting through it, you have gained wisdom and maturity beyond your years. I’ve seen it in you. You’ve developed resilience that will sustain you throughout your lives. You’ve deepened a well of compassion within yourselves that will help you connect with and give back to others who struggle.
Answer:the answer is C
Explanation:
Answer:
C. The students need to use their education to contribute to their community instead of focusing on developing themselves.
Explanation :
Students must focus on gaining values that build strong families and communities and nations. You all are aware about this. So they state that they desperately need your voices and your values in this conversation reminding us that we’re all connected, we’re all obligated to treat one another with respect, to act with integrity, to give back to those in need. You’ve deepened a well of compassion within yourselves that will help you connect with and give back to others who struggle.

Can you write me a short entertaining story about dogs? It has to be fictional. Also please don't take it off of google. THANNK YOUUU!!!!
Answer:
Once upon a time, two old married dogs were old and frail. Their hair was gray and thin. So, the owner (who was a farmer) began planning to dispatch them in order to save money on food and a roof over their head. However, his plan was foiled when they caught wind of it (for they have very good ears).
After licking their children good-bye, they started off on a journey to find a place to grow old(er).
They passed by gas stations, and convenience stores, and the little general stores that are common in Nebraska.
In the end, they never did find a place to settle down to live out their dog years. But, they did get to visit the vast farmlands & country-sides, and that was enough for them.
They would up passing peacefully together atop a small hill that overlooked cornrows.
And so, they began their new life in Doggy Heaven, chasing rabbits without the burden of old gums and joint pains.
Answer:
The beagle crawled out from underneath the table, its tail between its legs. He looked up with a guilty glint in his eye, staring at his owner’s face. He didn’t understand what she wasn’t yelling, but one quick look at the shattered vase told him that it wasn’t a congratulations yell. He whimpered when his owner turned on her feet, and stalked to her room, slamming the door shut. This vase must have been special, he thought. Noting the broomstick across from him in the kitchen, he got a bright idea. This will make her feel better, the dog sniffed happily. Trotting over to the broom, he took the wooden part by his teeth, and dragged it across the floor near the mess. Shoving and pushing the glass with the broom, he finally, although not swiftly, created a pile of the glass, careful to not break the pieces any further. Standing the broom up to the best of his abilities, he ran over to the drawer he was familiar with. He knew the object with white liquid inside like the back of his paw. The clumsy beagle jumped as high as he could to reach the glue, and had got it on, about, his umpteenth try. Careful to not squeeze the glue between his teeth so much, he jogged over to his owners door. It took quite some scratching and whining at the door for his owner to show her face. When she caught sight of the glue and the wagging tail of her beagle, she walked over to the glass mess, and noticed it in a neat pile, getting what her dog was trying to do. She kneeled on the floor near her beagle, and took the glue out of its mouth. Seeing her open her arms made the dog bark happily, as he jumped into her warm embrace. That night was full of fixing up a wonderful mistake.

Sketch the character of the protagonist from the lesson “Hearts and Hands in about 100 words
Answer:
Tama p.o. ba ito?
Explanation:
ike many of O. Henry's short stories, a surprise ending awaits readers of 'Hearts and Hands.' The story is set on a train to Denver. An elegantly attired woman named Miss Fairchild is seated on the train when two men arrive and take the seat facing her. It quickly becomes apparent that the woman knows one of the men.
She speaks to this man, Mr. Easton, and then she is rather surprised to discover that he is handcuffed to the man seated beside him. As Easton greets the young woman, 'He slightly raised his right hand, bound at the wrist by the shining 'bracelet' to the left one of his companion.'
Evidently, the man with Easton senses Easton's embarrassment and volunteers an explanation: Easton is the marshal, and the two are headed for Leavenworth prison. 'It's seven years for counterfeiting' Easton says. As the conversation continues, the woman is surprised to learn that Easton has discarded his life in Washington to become a marshal out West, but she finds the West agreeable as well.
The young woman continues to chat with her acquaintance, but she continues to stare at the handcuffs. To ease her concerns, the scruffy looking older man tells her, ''Don't you worry about them, miss,' said the other man. 'All marshals handcuff themselves to their prisoners to keep them from getting away. Mr. Easton knows his business.'' As the two men stand to go to the smoker car, the young woman bids Mr. Easton goodbye.
All the while, two passengers seated nearby have listened to the conversation. One remarks on Mr. Easton's appearance, saying that he seems too young to be a marshal. The other eavesdropping passenger corrects the mistake, one that the young woman and readers have likely made as well. Mr. Easton is not the marshal; he is the counterfeiter. ''Oh! didn't you catch on?' the passenger says. 'Say--did you ever know an officer to handcuff a prisoner to his right hand?''

Which details in this diary entry support the main idea that the writer is enjoying his time at his new school?
September 18
It's been a whole week since I joined the new school, and it's not as bad as I thought it would be. No one has bullied me for being the new kid, and the teacher isn't so scary. Mr. Denton has a unique way of teaching that my old teachers never used. He often pitches us the questions and waits for us come up with the answer. He even holds fun class debates—the kind where half the class argues with the other half about an issue. At the same time, he seems very strict when it comes to completing assignments.
I made a couple of friends in my first week too. There is Gina, whose father works at the same company as my father. She's really smart and has promised to help me with my studies. Then there's Max and Charlie. They live a couple of blocks from my place. Max is into soccer, just like me, but he only follows European football. Charlie and I don't talk a lot. I only know him because he hangs out with Max all the time. But I do know that he loves watching horror movies. Maybe I'll show him my collection when he comes over.
