...Improvement in health, education and trade are essential for the development of poorer nations. However, the government of richer nations should take more responsibility for helping the poorer nations in such areas. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Health and education are important aspects for the development of every country. There is no doubt that richer nations could be politically more flexibles in order to offer efficient and fast ways to help poorer countries which affront difficult situations due to different reasons. Firstly, richer governments should focus their politics keeping more equity and equality without pretend to get benefits which could damage the weak economy of other countries. Secondly, the fact that some nations are living difficult moments which affect their development, it is not a reason to take advantage of them. In addition, so many researches show that exists a strong availability to help poorer nations which represents excellent news; however, it does not mean that it is going to happen with every country, it usually depends on strategic alliances.

...hummingbirds prefer bright colors opposed to darker colors. The hummingbird has a red throat so considering that I would think they prefer red or something similar to red when it comes to picking flowers to visit. Research Ruby-throated Hummingbirds are primarily in the United States. These small birds are hard to find in the sky because they are only 2-3 in and can flap their wings 53 times in one second. That’s kind of hard to believe or even imagine. When it comes to the type of feeder a hummingbird feeds on doesn’t really matter. They tend to eat from any kind of feeder. When it comes to flowers they prefer, red and yellow are their preference. Experiment Materials: Hummingbirds, red flowers, blue flowers, yellow flowers, green flowers.

...pool” this line makes you think that the author is describing what little children experience in the summer seasons, the children are having their first encounter from the previous winter season where the fat on their bodies protected them from the freezing environment. The image of plump children are usually looked at as very young, not yet the age of puberty so they still have baby fat. The symbol that these plump children represent is innocence and purity. The poem continues into describing how there children are playing in the wet dirt on the exterior of the pool. The dirt is getting wet by the blue pool waters so the children are now slipping and sliding in the dirt which gives the appearance of oiled skin. “slide and tumble, oiled, in the slippery sun.” When water is touched it moves into wave patterns which is the image. the symbol of “churning the water; or-seamstresses-cut and sew with jack-knives its satins invisibly” is described by the movements a child's curious hand makes as its swirled around through the water. The last section in the poem states “and it greens the grass, greens the hanging leaf, greens Adam and Eden, greens little eve” i feel like the refers to how grass is usually thought to be green, when its green its is usually healthy and pure, the water that is splashing out of the pool is what revives the surrounding grass and leaves. The author is also drawing a mental image of Adam in the garden of Eden watching how as time goes by and the grass gets greener...

...associations and psychological symbolism, it is clear that Fowles has an acute understanding of how and why colours communicate meaning. With this understanding he uses colour symbolism in several different ways, the main two being; to emphasize obsession and to demonstrate how different the two main characters are. The reader is aware that Fredrick Clegg is an obsessive character instantly, his infatuation with Miranda is emphasized as he describes the fantasy life he daydreamed about in which she is ‘all pretty with her pale blonde hair and grey eyes and of course the other men all green round the gills.’ Colour symbolism here is used in several ways; firstly, ‘green round the gills’ meaning jealous, illustrates the longing Clegg feels to be superior and envied, perhaps because he has felt socially inferior for so long. Though more interestingly, this very obvious link between the colour green and jealousy reveals the simplicity in which Clegg expresses himself. His speech is so formal it feels uncomfortable, this dated, old fashioned phrase and the child-like associations he makes, feel to me, as if Fowles is using colour symbolism to accentuate the almost inhuman formality and simplicity that Clegg possesses. In addition to this, the way in which Clegg describes his fantasy version of Miranda, ‘all pretty with her pale blonde hair and grey eyes’ reveals how he views women. Clegg dreams only of her physical appearance, it is clear that Miranda is nothing but an object to...

...thought, and is struggling with his self worth, desires, and his destiny. In this complex emotional state, he visualizes words and feelings as color: the gleaming gold of his pride, the dark green depths of despair, and the red fires of lust. He would visualize these colors because of his longing desire to make sense of it all. He has realized that from the sin of lust, all other sins have emerged. Stephen is proud of his status and uses it to justify his sins. His success in school inflates his ego. He lords over people with pomposity and has a golden exterior, but under that thin shell is his sin and insecurity. His golden shell is a façade for his shame and the more he feeds his sin, the more he feels the need to devote himself to religion, as if the two will cancel each other out. Green is the color of the rotten stink that is the dark side of his soul. His mind is split. One side of him is a devout catholic who is excitedly persuing god, but while he is venerating Mary, he is daydreaming about prostitutes and the desires of his flesh. All this is swirling around in a cold swamp of lucid indifference where strange things hide under the dark surface. Stephen is lazy and sloth like, a condition of his mental frustration at the world of temptation. The only light that is provided to his fetid green soul is from the glowing red embers of his lust. Steven’s lust is at the heart of his problems. Perhaps the most destructive and addictive of the sins, it burns unchecked like a wildfire...

...Name: Instructor: Course Date: Art Report; critique Critique refers to a systematic and discipline analysis which is always written or can be presented in an oral form. In most cases, critique has been viewed as the acts of analyzing documents, literary work or pictures with an aim of making judgments that are negative and trying to find some faults in the analysis. However, critique does contain some form of recognizing the merits entailed in the subject matter and can be given a philosophical view of a practice that involves doubt. The entire sense of critique has been contemporarily been influenced by the critique of enlighten which involves authority and prejudice. This is always shaped by the autonomy and emancipation from the authorities in the political fronts and the religious authorities.

...Red from Green Essay The novel is written by Maile Meloy. The main character in the novel is Sam Turner. Sam just turned fifteen years. The story is written as if it was in the past, as we can see in the text, which is seen in the first sentence“. The summer she turned fifteen”. Sam and her father lives together in Montana and every summer they take a four-day float trip down the river, which is in the text “[…]It was a four day float trip, or five if you dawdled, or three if her father had to get back to work” . Sam’s mother is dead, but the text does not say how or when. Sam goes to a boarding school and in the fall she is a sophomore, but she is seriously doubt about this, and she doesn’t know if she would go there. It was her father’s idea, and she hasn’t accepted yet, which indicates that she feels compassion for her father and she will not leave him alone. Sam is a shy girl, because when Layton compliments her teeth she gets suspicious from the praise, which is in the text “You have perfect teeth,” he said “Did you have braces?” Sam is not very confident about herself, and she does not believe it when Layton compliment her. Layton gives her attention, and she has never experienced something like this before. Sam gets more and more self-confidence throughout the process, this seen in the text, when Sam shoot with the gun and finds out that she is very good at it. Sam respect her father, which is several times in the text for example when she is not sure if her father...

...the set the conditions, which are that they require cash on delivery, rejected plants to return with the driver, written orders only and will supply through other American plants with offices in London (Burton, 2009). Condensing they have never worked with Joel, the main feature of the contract is that there is a lawful consideration where the conditions are coming from the suppliers. The impact this will have will be the fact that he will build trust with them and in the long run, they could adjust the terms of the contract to allow credit. My advice would be to amend the contract in the presence of the two parties. Advice to situation B: Green Colour The idea that Shrubs only wants to use second grade suppliers without notifying Green Colour shows and example of implied terms which Shrubs only fails to mention to Green Colour, but will include it in the execution of the contract. For this, since Don preferred quality flowers, it will result to the rectification of the contract to erase this clause so as to ensure the company is able to supply quality at all the time. However, there could be the application of Parol evidence where Shrub Only can explain this phase and provide a reason for why they want to change the quality supply. Advice to situation C: Joel The conditions of the contract require that Leisure Ltd must come within 24 hours when requested to do so by Garden Colour. If this is not done, then one party is breaching the contract (Cordero-Moss...
