It is often said that lightning never strikes twice in the same place, but this isn’t true. Go ask the forest rangers. Rangers who spend their summers as fire-fighters will tell you that every thundershower brings several bolts of lightning to their lookout stations.

A.Lightning cannot strike one place more than once

B.Lightning can hit a place two times

C.Lightning happens mostly in the summer

D. Lightning happens mostly in the summer.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B.Lightning can hit a place two times

Explanation:

The main idea of the passage is that lightning can hit the same place twice, despite people thinking otherwise. It is best summarized in the first sentence of the passage.

That part explains how the saying claims lightning won’t strike at the same place more than once but then proceeds to explain why this is false. The passage says that rangers know examples of lightning striking their stations more than once, which is evidence that the claim is false and that lightning bolts do hit the same places twice.

E. Contemptuous

Plz write a book summary of the most interesting book you hae ever read.

Answers

Answer:

Dav Pilkey’s children’s book The Adventures of Captain Underpants (1997), targeted to young boys, it proved very popular, spawning a long list of sequels and adaptations in other media.

The story begins with the introduction of two best friends, George and Harold. They love to pull pranks and play tricks on others. They also write their own comic book about a crime-fighting superhero named Captain Underpants. They chose the name because superheroes always look like they are wearing underwear. They sell photocopies of each issue for fifty cents at school.

At an important school football game, they plan a series of pranks that result in the school being forced to forfeit the game: they put pepper in the cheerleaders’ pom-poms, making everyone sneeze; helium in the football, causing it to float away; bubble solution in the marching band’s instruments; and itching powder in the muscle rub. The next day, Harold and George are called into Principal Krupp’s office, where Krupp reveals he has a videotape of them pulling the pranks. He tells the boys that from now on they must do exactly as he tells them or he will show the tape to the football team, who are very angry.

 

Harold and George are forced by Krupp to wake up at 6 a.m. every day to do chores for Mr. Krupp. They also must never smile during class, and they get extra homework. Desperate to escape these grueling punishments, one day, George thinks he sees a solution when he orders a “3-D Hypno Ring” from a catalog. The ring takes weeks to arrive, during which time they continue doing chores and extra homework. When the ring finally arrives, they use it to hypnotize Mr. Krupp, replacing the video with one of Harold’s little sister’s videotapes.

With Mr. Krupp hypnotized, the boys fall back into their pranking ways, having the principal act like a chicken, then a monkey. Then, they get creative, ordering him to behave like Captain Underpants. The principal takes off his pants and ties a curtain around his neck, making the boys break into laughter, but before they can stop him, he jumps out the window to fight crime.

The boys chase him on their skateboards to a bank robbery, where he confronts two mystified robbers. The police arrive and start to arrest Krupp along with the criminals, but the boys get him away. As they are trying to get Krupp back to school to change him back into the principal, they come across two robots stealing a mysterious crystal. Captain Underpants’s cape gets caught in the van’s door as it speeds away, dragging him behind it. The boys grab on and are taken with him to an abandoned warehouse, where they discover that the evil Dr. Diaper is planning to use the crystal to destroy the moon, destroying all the cities on Earth, allowing him to become Earth’s ruler.

The boys hide, but Captain Underpants is tied up. The boys hatch a plan; they use fake doggie poop they find in the warehouse and a slingshot to make Dr. Diaper think he needs to be changed. While he is distracted, George and Harold destroy the robots and untie Captain Underpants. They examine the machine Dr. Diaper has built to destroy the moon and pull a level, thinking it is an off switch. It is a “self-destruct” switch.

Dr. Diaper returns, producing a ray gun. Angry, he intends to use it on the boys, but Captain Underpants begins shooting underwear at his face. They capture Dr. Diaper and escape the warehouse as it is destroyed. Leaving Dr. Diaper tied up outside the police station, they return to the school, deciding it is time to bring back Principal Krupp—but they have lost the Hypno Ring’s instruction manual and have no idea how to do it. George finds a vase of water and dumps it on Principal Krupp’s head, breaking the spell.

Angry, Principal Krupp decides to give the videotape to the football team, not knowing that the boys switched it. George then finds the instruction manual for the ring, where he reads that the one thing you should never do is pour water over a hypnotized person’s head because it will cause him to go in and out of a trance at the sound of snapping fingers. He throws the manual away.

The football team watches the video, the Boomer the Purple Dragon sing-along tape, and they love it. They rename the team the “Purple Dragon Sing-a-Long Friends.”

George and Harold go back to their normal lives, making comics and playing pranks, but one day, they see someone snap their fingers in front of Principal Krupp, and he instantly becomes Captain Underpants. The boys watch him running across the football field in his underwear, the curtain tied around his neck again, to go fight crime.

Answer:

Ok the most intresting book i ever read was "Doctor Sleep" by Stephen King. I find this book intresting because of how they portray some of the characters. For example Daniel became the thing he hated an alchoholic (sorry for misspell). He said he would never be a drunk like his father but he did become one to snuff out his shining. I also find this book intresting because of the villains. The villains are a group of quasi-immortal beings called the True Knot who feed of the "steam" that kids with the shining produce when tortured. So heres a very very over simplified summary. One day Dan wakes up in a random womans house who he steals money from and leaves her the drugs they were using for her to sell. Then he goes to a small town where he joins up the local AA. Then a girl named Abra writes on his black board. then bippoty boppity boo she's 13 and the true knot kill again but then Abra sees them do it so they go after her! THENNNNNNN Dan and Doctor John go on a road trip to talk to Abra's dad they talk to the Dad and then kill some True Knot. Then the man called the Crow kidnaps Abra to take her back to the true knot. Then they go to the Over Look when it turns out Dan is Abras step uncle! then they both go fight the mean lady and kill her!

Write a leaflet with 8 simple things for you that you will help the planet!

Answers

1. Use Energy Efficient Lightbulbs

Energy efficient lightbulbs are a simple way to reduce the amount of power you use. Not only will this help the planet, it will also save your bank balance too. By replacing just one lightbulb, the effect can be tremendous. If every house in the USA did this, it would reduce pollution by the same amount as removing one million cars from the road!


2. Turn Your Computer Off Overnight

If you turn your computer off every night, again you will reduce the power you use. You will save an average of $14 a year. It’s not a huge amount, but better in your pocket than your energy supplier’s right?


3. Don’t Pre-Rinse the Dishes

If you can’t live without your dishwasher, then at least cut the pre-rinse. With a decent detergent, your dishes will be just as clean and you can save an average of twenty gallons of water per load.


4. Don’t Pre-Heat Your Oven

Unless it’s absolutely essential, for example if you’re making bread, you don’t need to pre-heat the oven. You can just set it away when you are ready to start cooking. Bonus tip: When checking the food, look through the door rather than opening it until the final check.


5. Always Recycle Glass

Did you know that un recycled glass can take up to a million years to decompose? Always make sure to recycle your glass. It can reduce related water pollution by up to fifty percent and related air pollution by up to twenty percent.

6. Choose Your Diapers Wisely

Wherever possible, choose cloth diapers – this aids the environment and is kinder to baby’s skin. If you desperately need the convenience of the disposable diaper, use an environmentally friendly brand. The average child uses between five and eight thousand diapers – which equates to 3.5 million tonnes of landfill waste. And makes a huge dent in your pocket!


7. Use A Clothesline

Do your clothes a favour and switch off the dryer. Hang clothes outside to dry naturally. The material will last longer, it will smell and feel fresher and of course, you are saving on that power usage!


8. Have A Vegetarian Day

You don’t have to give up meat for life, but try to commit to one meat free day a week. It takes 2,500 gallons of water to produce a single pound of beef. And each hamburger that comes from animals on ex-forestry ground is responsible for the destruction of fifty-five square feet of forest.


9. Launder Sensibly

For your own pocket, and the good of the environment, don’t wash half loads. Wait until there’s enough to do a load and cut your laundry in half. Also, think about the water temperature. If every household in the USA switched from a hot to a warm cycle, it could save the equivalent of 100,000 barrels of oil per day.


10. Don’t Waste Napkins

We’ve all done it – gone somewhere and took a napkin or two more than we needed, only to throw them away unused. If everyone in the USA used one less napkin a day, current figures show that it could save a billion pounds of space in landfills.


11. Use All of the Paper

If you jot a note down on paper, save it and use the rest of the sheet for your notes. American business waste 21 million tonnes of paper per annum! Ideally, try to have your business as paperless as possible. When it is absolutely necessary, print on both sides of the page. And don’t forget to recycle it!


12. Never Throw Away Newspapers

Make sure to recycle your old newspapers - 69% (or 44 million newspapers) of the newspapers printed in the USA are thrown away every day. Even if you recycle only once per week, half a million trees could be saved. Or even better, why not avoid newspapers altogether and read the online versions!



13. Personalise Gift Wrapping

Gift wrap is a major waste of paper and resource. Re-use gift wrap, bows and tags. Or why not be really creative and make your own gift wrap – use old newspapers, maps or magazines and create your own design!


14. Re-Think Your Water Consumption

Bottled water is handy when you’re on the go, but why not buy one bottle and then refill it from the tap or your work’s water cooler. Around 90% of water bottles end up decomposing in landfills rather than being recycled.


15. Opt for A Shower

Switching your bath for a shower can make a huge difference. Baths use approximately double the amount of water a shower uses. This not only saves water, but it saves you money on heating the excess water too.


16. Turn The Tap Off When Brushing

When brushing your teeth, turning the tap off while brushing can save five gallons of water per day – the equivalent of 1.5 billion gallons of water across the USA
