i see u guys viewing the passage :)
I'm done reading it, but where can i read 50 and 60?
3rd page
i saw it, lol forgot to scroll
is that u on your pic?
@Zale101
Im guessing they get a scale but the Emperor has forbidden the use of scales in their village.
Another detail I'm guessing is that thier foolish.
It was only the child that was smart.
can write in paragraph form I swear i wont copy. Ill dramitically change your answer when Im gonna write
hmmm..... I can try.
Okay I never read the story but I can tell you in paragraph form:
okay after you read tell me okay?
and then i have another question: explain what ' ANOTHER Way TO Weigh AN elephant" SUGGESTS ABOUT CHILDREN. USE TWO DETAILS.
The child seems to be smart but the villagers don't believe him. They think that he's still a kid and don't take him seriously. I think the Child has good smart decisions that impressed the Empress.
thats the second question rite? details? @Zale101
yes
Since the Emporess wanted the 3 men to weigh the elephant, they started coming up with ideas but they all failed. Seeking an answer (and a foolish one at that), they agree to the emporess to weigh the elephant with a scale. Forbidding scales in the village, the 3 get outdated of ideas. Soon they approach a clever child who was staring at the river with joy. He volenteered to weigh the elephant with his clever mind. So being the smart kid, he showed the emporess a water lily resembling the elephant and calmly setting it down on the water boat. And that's how they got the elephant weighed.
Hope that helps :)
@Falco276 thats the answer to the first rite?
Yes.
can u help me with one more pleeeeeeeeeeassse?
sure. :)
For question 2#, The villagers laughed at the child but when the empress got amazed by his words, everyone then were convinced by the child. All i have...
plz w8 back hurts
okay explain how the structure of" another way to weigh an elephant" contributes to the meaning and style
oh, well, hmmmm let me think.
okay take your time!
I also read a similar story where it has to do with 3 main friends that are completely foolish.
Returning to the subject here.
okay hah
I think the meaning of this story is to see how a secondary character can end up so smart while the main characters stay being foolish. That's my thought on this question.
WHAT ABOUT THE STRUCTURE?
That's my answer.
Hope it helps. :)
