Actually the negative lens just sits there. It causes a parallel beam of light to diverge. It causes a convergent beam to converge less. It causes a divergent beam to diverge more.

put it into perspective: how heavy is your computer? can you carry it down to the park? can you leave it on a table at a cafe without it being stolen? will it still work if it gets wet? and ultimately, does it feel like a book. in my mnind, there is nothing nicer and more relaxing than curling up with a good book. you can't do that with any online medium as far as i am concerned. go the book! no, it is very bad for your eyes

No.

Reading is one of life's great pleasures. It can take you away to another world, introduce you to people you would never have known otherwise, and immerse you in places you might never see yourself, if not for the power of the written word. Books can inspire people to take action, to see things in a different way, and to reflect deeply upon their own experiences and lives. As Morrissey once sang, "There's more to life than books, you know--but not much more."

There are many themes in Year of Wonders.

There's the issue of feminism and women's rights, Anys is the main figure for this theme as she sleeps around and refuses to get married. It is after her visit to Anys that Anna begins to notice how the women are 'chained' to their man folk. Aswell, Mompelion forcing his wife to atone for her self abortion by not sleeping with him.

There are HEAPS of examples in here, you just have to look.

There's the issue of god and faith. At the begining, everybody has their full faith in religon and the church but as the novel goes on people begin to loose faith. Take when Anna considers the rock she tripped on and wonders whether it was placed by god.

Also to do with this theme is how various characters turn to other religious practices such as Anna's step mother and the guy (I cant remember his name :b) who turns to flagalism (sorry about spelling)

Again, the Gowdies have extreme relevance here as they are healers and accused of witchcraft.

There's the element of growth and evolvment of character. While Anna grows strong and becomes a hero, many either die or come out of the story worse for wear, like Mompellion.

Life and Death. Anna, after witnessing such destruction due to illness, ends up entering midwifery and aiding the enterance of many many children into life. Also Elinor, who is a large symbol in the novel or goodness and life, ends up dying.

I picked up on the love triangle between Anna, Mompellion and Elinor. There is reference to Mompellion being infatuated with Anna, such as when he lingers when she is breastfeeding, and at the end when they sleep together. However, in a way I saw Anna as admiring Elinor to the point of loving her and even being so obssessed as to want to BE Elinor, hence the sleeping with her husband and then feeling terrible after she learns Elinor had not. She also mentions being jealous of Mompellion at one point.

I'm sure there are heaps more aswell, I can't remember anymore of the top of my head though but good luck :D

The clue of the object refers to specific characteristics or hints that help identify or describe it. This can include its shape, color, size, material, or any distinctive features. Often, clues are used in puzzles or games to guide individuals toward recognizing the object in question. Understanding these clues is essential for solving the mystery or challenge presented.

Generally, the more of your senses you can use while learning something, the more likely you are to retain it. So reading it out loud invokes both your vision and hearing versus silent reading which only uses vision.

This means to stay at it, stay with it, do not stop doing it.

It adds nothing significant to the meaning of the conversation nor does it enhance the reputation of the person who used the word. The words are disrespectful and profane. Profanity also suggests disrespect to any religious figure and if you wish to include blasphemy, that is an offensive attack on religious figures, is sinful and in violation of the 10 Commandments.

"so entangled as to make escape impossible" So a sentence for inextricable would be,"I couldn't find my way through the inextricable maze."

I don't know one with a 1700 lexile (wow) but one with 1200 lexile is Understanding The Lord of The Flies and Understanding Romeo and Juliet is 1380, (yeah, kind of funny) and a book that is 1550 is Pride and Prejudice: School Desegregation. So pretty much, just read a book about understanding a classic.
