Lightening is a powerful force in nature.
Using evidence from both articles, construct a well-organized informational essay that explains why lightning’s power should be respected.
Your essay should include evidence from both “A Lightning Primer” and “Flash Facts About Lightning.”
Answer:
According to NASA Lightning, the thunderbolt from mythology, has long been feared as an atmospheric flash of supernatural origins: the great weapon of the gods. The Greeks both marveled and feared lightning as it was hurled by Zeus. For the Vikings, lightning was produced by Thor as his hammer struck an anvil while riding his chariot across the clouds. In the East, early statues of Buddha show him carrying a thunderbolt with arrows at each end. Native American tribes in North America believed that lightning was due to the flashing feathers of a mystical bird whose flapping wings produced the sound of thunder.
Facts about Lightning
The speed of lightning
While the flashes we see as a result of a lightning strike travel at the speed of light (670,000,000 mph) an actual lightning strike travels at a comparatively gentle 270,000 mph.
This means it would take about 55 minutes to travel to the moon, or around 1.5 seconds to get from London to Bristol.
2. When lightning strikes a beach
When lightning strikes sand or sandy soil, it fuses together the grains to create a small glass-like tube known as a fulgurite.
They are not only prized by collectors, they are also of great scientific value in demonstrating past occurrence of lightning storms.
3. The most lightning-struck location in the world
Lake Maracaibo in Venezuela is the place on Earth that receives the most lightning strikes. Massive thunderstorms occur on 140-160 nights per year with an average of 28 lightning strikes per minute lasting up to 10 hours at a time.
That's as many as 40,000 lightning strikes in one night!
4. Helicopters cause lightning
Recent research from the Met Office revealed that helicopters can cause an isolated lightning strike. While flying, the helicopter acquires a negative charge, so if it flies close to an area that is positively charged (e.g. hail or the base of a cumulonimbus cloud) it can trigger a lightning strike.
5. 1,400,000,000 strikes every year
Lightning is one of nature's most recurrent and common spectacles. Around the world, there are over 3,000,000 flashes every day.
That's around 44 strikes every second.
6. Lightning destroys trees
Trees can often be destroyed by lightning strikes. When lightning hits a tree, it usually travels just below the tree's bark where there is a layer of sap and water.
This layer becomes instantly heated and expands causing the bark to be blasted off the tree and sometimes splitting the wood.
7. But it can help plants grow
While nitrogen is in the air all around us, for plants to be able to absorb it (a process vital for their growth) they rely on a process called Nitrogen fixation.
Although much of this process is done by bacteria and algae, the extreme heat of a lightning strike causes nitrogen to bond with oxygen to create nitrogen oxides which combine with moisture in the air to fall as rain and water plants with nitrate-rich water.
8. The width of a thumb and hotter than the sun
While the intensity of a lightning strike can make them appear as thick bolts across the sky, the actual width of a lightning bolt is only about 2-3 cm. The average length of a lightning bolt is about 2-3 miles.
The charge carried down this small channel is so intense that the temperature of the lightning reaches 30,000 °C - that's five times hotter than the surface of the Sun.
9. Volcanic lightning
While lightning storms are impressive in their own right, they don't quite compare to the spectacle when volcanic eruptions trigger lightning strikes.
When an eruption occurs, earth and ash are thrown into the air in a giant plume, colliding to create an electrical charge. In the same way as normal lightning, the imbalance between the plume's electrical charge and the charge in the atmosphere leads to lightning strikes.
10. Counting lightning
To tell how far away a thunderstorm is, simply count the number of seconds between the flash of lightning and the boom of thunder that follows. Divide this number by five and this tells you how many miles away you are from the storm (or divide by three for the distance in kilometres).

Petra
(1) There are many examples of grand architecture in the world. (2) Some of the most impressive are buildings of the ancient city called Petra in Jordan. (3) Petra is the Greek word for "rock." (4) The early inhabitants of Petra—the Nabataeans—did not use wood or brick to make the structures, but instead, they carved them right out of the desert sandstone cliffs.
(5) Two thousand years ago, Petra was an important center of activity where caravans of travelers would pass through on their way to trade goods in other regions. (6) Their power and riches can still be seen today in the remains of their city.
(7) Although Petra was built in a rugged, dry desert, the Nabataeans made wise plans for collecting and storing water. (8) This water system was made of cisterns, or reservoirs, that held water and channels that directed water from one place to another.
(9) After thriving for about 1,000 years, Petra began to decline. (10) The trade routes that had once gone through the city were changed to go toward the sea. (11) In addition, an earthquake devastated the area. (12) The ruins of the city were rediscovered in the 1800s by a European traveler who disguised himself as a local Bedouin, or local Middle Eastern person, to find the remote location.
(13) Today, modern travelers can visit Petra and see its majesty in person; tours are available by foot, donkey, or camel. (14) Much of Petra remains to be seen; archaeologists have uncovered only 15 percent of it. (15) The rest of this city is still "lost" or underground.

The Fox and the Crow

"Good-day, Mistress Crow," he cried. "How well you are looking to-day: how glossy your feathers; how bright your eye. I feel sure your voice must surpass that of other birds, just as your figure does; let me hear but one song from you that I may greet you as the Queen of Birds."

Answer: ok A i think
Explanation: hope it help and is right good day
Answer:
C.
Explanation:
Infinitives as Nouns
Remember that a noun is a person, place, or thing. When an infinitive is used as the subject or direct object in a sentence, it functions as a noun.
The sentence’s subject performs the verb, while the sentence’s direct object receives the verb.
Example 1:
I love to sleep.
In this sentence, the verb is “love.”
Who or what receives the action of being loved? The infinitive “to sleep.”
This makes “to sleep” the direct object of the sentence.
In this case, the infinitive functions as a noun that expresses an opinion. It could be replaced with a person, place, or thing, as in, “I love pizza.”

I can help to compare and contrast
The difference between the two poems is that the first poem speaks about positive thinking and attributes, that omclude creativity and observation. It illustrates hope to the readers. While the other poem speaks about the truth in the future about people will die sooner or later. The poet talks we should not give into death but avoid it. The comparison between these two poems is about they both speak about hope, future, and the world around and how we react to the world. Hope this helps for you.
