Marnie the monkey loved running around the rainforest, searching for ripe mangoes to munch. One morning, she met a friendly rabbit nibbling on some crunchy carrots near a river. Together, they raced to see who could gather more food before the sun went down.
The property preservation industry plays a critical role in maintaining foreclosed properties, ensuring they comply with HUD & Fannie Mae guidelines. Field crews handle tasks such as winterization (e.g., draining pipes to prevent freezing), roof repairs, lawn care, and installing safety pool covers (as per Section 9.4 of the compliance manual). Administrative teams manage work orders worth $500+, process bids (e.g., roof: 20 feet by 30 feet), and calculate material costs like 2-inch by 4-inch lumber or 12-foot by 15-foot tarp rolls. Accuracy is vital—missing a client's deadline (e.g., 12/15/2024 @ 5:00 PM) can result in penalties. Moreover, communication involves detailed updates: "EOB submitted—#12345; awaiting approval by 11/30." Employees must excel at multitasking, using tools like CRM software, Excel formulas (e.g., =SUM(A1:A10)), and client portals. Faster typing (aim for 50+ WPM) reduces delays, enhances efficiency, and avoids costly rework. Remember: attention to detail is key—misplacing a digit (e.g., $1,000.00 vs. $10,000.00) can significantly affect outcomes! By mastering speed, precision, and effective use of characters like &, %, @, and #, employees contribute to seamless operations and satisfied clients.
Staying at an inn in Braavos, Sam is nearing wits' end. Dareon has abandoned them for the brothels, Gilly remains inconsolable, and Maester Aemon's health deteriorates daily. To make matters worse, Sam had spent nearly all their coin on their rooms, a healer for Aemon, and passage on a boat, Lady Ushanora, that they wound up unable to board due to the maester's health.
Feverish and dying, the maester begs Sam to return to the docks to learn more about this rumor of dragons that Dareon had heard at some winesink. Aemon mumbles to Sam, "Dragons. The grief and glory of my house... My brothers dreamed of dragons too, and the dreams killed them, every one. Sam, we tremble on the cusp of half-remembered prophecies... I should have seen it. Fire consumes, but cold preserves. The Wall..."
Sam departs that night to find Dareon, but gets accosted by two bravos because he is wearing a sword. However, he is saved by Cat of the Canals, who tells him of another black brother about to wed the Sailor's Wife.
Sam finds Dareon at the Happy Port, but his brother from the Watch wants nothing more to do with the black, or Gilly and Aemon for that matter. Sam punches him in the face, but gets tossed into the canal by the proprietors of the brothel. He is saved from drowning by Xhondo, a huge Summer Islander, who is a mate aboard the Cinnamon Wind and knows of these dragons that Sam had mentioned.

Returning to Maidenpool, Hyle Hunt informs Randyll Tarly that Brienne of Tarth has killed three of the Bloody Mummers. Tarly again warns her against playing a knight, but Brienne will not give up her mission to find Sansa Stark. She and Podrick meet up with Ser Hyle the next morning, and he tells them of his plan for finding Sandor Clegane.
He reveals that the Hound has not joined Beric Dondarrion, and that the Lightning Lord's band had no part in the raid on Saltpans. Lord Tarly has created this rumour in the hopes of turning the smallfolk against Lord Beric.
Ser Hyle knows a septon with great knowledge of the Riverlands, and proposes that they accompany the man to Saltpans. When Brienne says she has no intention of traveling with Hunt, he tells her that he is no longer in Lord Tarly's service. They soon depart for Saltpans, while Septon Meribald talks of the gods, his past and the great bands of wolves in the Riverlands led by a demon of a she-wolf.
Meribald tells them that they may encounter broken men traumatized by their experiences in war on their way to Quiet Isle, and Brienne surmises that the septon himself once had such an experience before he discovered his piety.

Havisham didn't take the advice of Matthew Pocket, who warned her not to trust her future husband too much. Guess why.
Perhaps because she loved her fiancé. This love made her trust him. When a woman loves, she is ready to sacrifice everything for the man she loves.
Mr Jaggers's house had something in common with Miss Havisham's house. Guess what it is.
They both were large and gloomy.
Why do you think Mr Jaggers lives in a large, gloomy building?
Because he was a powerful and rich man who dealt mostly with criminals.
Mr Jaggers was a strong and bossy character. Explain this.
All criminals feared him. Even at a dinner table, he keeps everything at his side, and serves others himself.
Mr Jaggers seemed to like Bentley Drummle. Guess why.
I think because he liked the look of Drummle.
Boasting stirs boasting." How do you think this true concerning Pip, Startop and Drummle?
When Drummle continued to boast about his skills and power, both Pip and Startop started to boast, too.
Why do you think Drummle went on boasting while in Mr Jagger's house?
I think because he found good audience. Mr Jaggers encouraged him.
What do you think of the boys' behaviour at dinner in Mr Jaggers house?
I think they behaved boyishly. They all boasted, especially Bentley Drummle.
If Drummle hadn't finished his education with Mr Matthew Pocket, what would Pip's relation with him have been like?
I think they wouldn't have liked each other. Drummle saw himself superior to others and Pip didn't like it.
What do you think of the language of Biddy's letter to Pip?
I think she tried as much as possible to use formal language. She addressed him as "Mr Pip".
"I wished that I could pay Joe not to come." What does this statement tell you about Pip?
I think it shows that Pip has become ashamed of Joe, his best friend. He was no longer grateful to the man who had always been kind to him.
How was Pip supposed to behave when Joe visited him at Bernard's
Inn?
He was supposed to make Joe feel comfortable and take it easy. He didn't even ask him to sit down. Joe looked uncomfortable and remained standing. Pip disliked Joe's behaviour but he didn't try to help him behave better.
Herbert proved to be a better gentleman compared to Pip. How do you know?
While he was eating breakfast with Pip and Joe, he tried to make Joe feel comfortable.
How do you think Pip was one of the reasons that made Joe feel uncomfortable when he visited them at Bernard's Inn?
Pip was not welcoming. That made Joe more anxious. Pip was supposed to make Joe feel at home and behave naturally, but he didn't.
Joe waited until Herbert had left before he told Pip the cause of his visit. Say why
Because Joe had come to tell Pip that Miss Havisham wanted to see him and that Estella had come home. Perhaps Joe thought that Pip did not want Herbert to know about this message.
After Joe had left Bernard's Inn, Pip was quick to regret his unwelcoming behaviour towards him. Explain.
As soon as Joe had left, Pip felt sorry for being unfriendly to him. He hurried outside to call him back but Joe had gone.
Coincidence revealed the name of the convict who Pip had helped years ago. Explain.
On the coach from London, two convicts and their guard sat behind Pip. One of the two convicts was the man who had stirred the tea with the file and gave Pip a coin years ago. That convict said that Magwitch had asked him to take a coin to a boy that had helped him in the marshes when he tried to escape.
To what extent was Magwitch grateful to Pip?
He was very grateful. He sent Pip a shiny coin as a thank-you.
Why do you think Magwitch insisted that the coin he sent to Pip be shiny?
I think because children like shiny coins and new banknotes.
To what extent was the man who gave Pip the coin honest?
He was very honest. He gave Pip the coin Magwitch had sent to him in addition to a one-pound note.
What would have happened if Magwitch had told the soldiers that it was Pip who had brought him the file?
Pip would have been arrested for helping an escaped convict.

Compare and contrast the Pockets' house to Miss Havisham's house.
They were both large houses. Miss Havisham's house was filled of gloom and sadness. It is part of the sad past. The Pockets' house was full of life and happiness. Everything in the Pockets' house is natural. There are cheerful parents and noisy children.
Why do you think Miss Havisham was always in her wedding dress and usually sat in her dressing room?
Perhaps because she was getting dressed for the wedding when she got the news of her fiancé's departure.
Miss Havisham was put in a situation that destroyed her life. Illustrate.
Her fiancé left her on her wedding day. Everything was ready for the wedding.
In what sense was Miss Havisham a victim?
She was the victim of her fiancé who left her on their wedding day.
She was the victim of her evil brother who, together with her fiancé. planned to take her money. She was also the victim of herself. She chose to live in the past and thought only of revenge.
Concerning Estella, Herbert proved to have a much stronger will than Pip. Explain.
Herbert knew that Estella was proud and rude, so he didn't like her. Pip knew all Estella's bad qualities but still he admired her.
In what sense was Herbert lucky?
-Miss Havisham refused to adopt him. If she had adopted him, he would have become one of proud Estella's victims.
Miss Havisham changed her mind about adopting Herbert. Guess why.
Perhaps because he was not handsome. In addition, he was weak.
Everyone has his or her own process for writing, but the essay-writing process below works for many people.
Process for writing a 5-paragraph (intro, 3-P body, conclusion) essay:
Choose and limit your topic You need to choose an aspect of a topic that you can develop in 3 paragraphs. The topic, Afghan Weddings, for example, is too big (too general) for 3 paragraphs. You need to narrow the focus and choose an angle. You need to choose a specific aspect of Afghan weddings.

*Write the thesis statement (What is your essay about?)
help you focus your research and writing.
*Gather information and brainstorm ideas for supporting details
*Organize your material
* Look at your notes and decide what each paragraph will be about
* Make an outline.
*Write the introduction /finalize the thesis statement (Some people like to write the introduction before they write the body; others like to write it after.)
Write the draft body

Edit and polish - Now you look at details: grammar, punctuation, and word choice.
Why do you think Herbert was chosen to stay with Pip at Bernard's Inn?
I think because he was the son of Pip's teacher. He would take him to his father's house in a few days.
Miss Havisham's pleasure with Pip's promising future misled him. Explain.
- Her pleasure made Pip become sure that she is his secret benefactor.
But remember to follow Mr Jaggers' advice!" What do you think Miss Havisham meant by these words?
I think she meant that Pip should not try to know who his benefactor was.
