Write about a time when you thought you might be in trouble and you lied to avoid it
It's human nature to lie to save yourself from any trouble. But one shouldn't do it, because, in the end, you can not survive with lies.
What are flight and fight responses?The fight-or-flight response is brought on by the sympathetic nervous system's abrupt release of norepinephrine. A physiological response to situations that could endanger our lives is the fight-or-flight response.
When the fight-or-flight response is present, various physiological changes occur. The goal of these modifications is to give the body the strength and speed it needs to choose between fighting and running away. Among these modifications include an increase in blood pressure, blood flow, and muscle tension.
Therefore, it's common for people to tell lies to get themselves out of difficulty. However, one shouldn't do it because, in the end, lying won't help you survive.

Answer:
Author Terry Bisson's short story, which reads as a conversation between two extraterrestrials, first appeared in ''Omni'' magazine in 1990. When it opens, the two beings are talking about an encounter they've had with creatures (presumably humans) they've ''picked up from different parts of the planet.'' The first being is questioning the second about the makeup of these creatures and cannot seem to understand how meat could be capable of making - and using - machines:
''That's ridiculous. How can meat make a machine? You're asking me to believe in sentient meat.'' To be sentient means to have feelings or senses.
The first being simply cannot believe that anything made of meat could be thinking, feeling, or creating. The second being tells the first that they probed the lifeforms and everything - including the brain - is made out of meat. In fact, these suspicious creatures are ''...thinking meat! Conscious meat! Loving meat. Dreaming meat. The meat is the whole deal!''

Based on the rhetoric Dr. King uses in his letter who is his intended audience?
Answer:
His fellow clergymen were his intended audience.

Dr. Martin Luther King basically used repetition as a rhetoric in his Letter from Birmingham Jail. His opening words showed that the letter was directed to his fellow clergymen.
Dear fellow Clergymen,
His reference to them as "friends" and repetition of biblical examples further stress this.
Was not Jesus an extremist for love?
Was not Amos an extremist for justice?
Was not Paul an extremist for the Christian gospel?

In concluding the letter, he prayed that he would meet with them not as a civil rights leader, but as a fellow clergymen and as a Christian brother.
Are celebrities good examples of role models?
In what ways they help influence positively?
(( NO NONSENSE ANSWERS! (essay))
Lots of people tend to look up to celebrities and some can be role models because they are famous and want to set a good example. Some celebrities tweet about being kind or helping others to spread positivity because they know a lot of people will see and will listen to them because they are their role model and are famous. But some celebrities are not very good role models for younger people because they might not really care about setting a good example and just want to be famous for the money, but that is not true for all celebrities, some use their fame for good and spread positivity. It just depends on the person. (Hope I could help) :)
