A member of the Oprichnina, a bodyguard corps created by Tsar Ivan the Terrible to oversee a division of Russia from 1565 to 1572, was known as a "oprichnik."
At the age of three, Ivan IV—also known as Ivan the Terrible—took the throne in 1533. Russia's boyars, or landowning nobility, caused havoc throughout his young life by competing for dominance. To keep young Ivan under their control, the boyars battled. When Ivan was 16 years old, he took control and appointed himself czar. During this time, Ivan IV was successful in stealing huge tracts of property from the nobility and establishing his own private security force, the oprichniki. Even though Ivan IV had a reputation for being a paranoid and temperamental king, he was also a part of the political and cultural changes that would give Russia its distinctive character for generations to come. Ivan IV's biggest accomplishments are his victories, which transformed Russia and drove out Tatar forces that had long ruled and invaded the country.

Every morning on the farm, the rooster crowed at the break of dawn. Then one day, the barn animals grew weary of his crowing.
"We have decided to wake ourselves up every morning," said the cow to the rooster. "Your services are no longer needed."
The cow remembered that the pony had been having trouble sleeping and was usually the first animal awake. "Pony, give a loud yell tomorrow as soon as you notice the sunlight creeping through the cracks of the barn door."
The next morning, the rooster kept silent as the sun rose in the distance. Not a sound could be heard anywhere on the farm, including the barn. In fact, the barn animals were still sleeping when the farmer entered to begin his day of work.

Long ago beloved, thy memory, Atthis,
Saddens still my heart as the soft Æolic
Twilight deepens down on the sea, and fitful
Winds that have wandered
Over groves of myrtle at Amathonte
Waft forgotten passion on breaths of perfume.
Long ago, how madly I loved thee, Atthis!
Faithless, light-hearted
Loved one, mine no more, who lovest another
More than me; the silent flute and the faded
Garlands haunt the heart of me thou forgettest,
Long since thy lover.

Dear Mr Chen,
I am Rona Lyn Olivar, one of the part-time receptionists at your Sea View Hotel. I have been working here since July and I have taken the job to gain some experience that I thought would be helpful for my future career. I am writing to draw your attention to a few issues I have encountered in the hotel. I am hoping that you would take steps to solve these.
I have noticed that some of the duty staffs at night shift sleep inside the hotel's quarter instead of being at the reception area. Literally, I and Lindsay- who is also a new employee, work and manage everything at night. They even do not bother to come to the reception area at busy hours when we have an influx of guests - usually on Friday nights. I believe this is against the rules.
Moreover, breakfast is supposed to be ready before 7:00 am but it is not the case. Sometimes the guests have to wait till 8:00 am for breakfast to arrive. Some of the guests have lodged complained regarding this.
I thought you should be notified about these irregularities. Duty officers at night shift should be reprimanded and warned so that they execute their duties. Besides, look at the recent complaints regarding the delay in breakfast serving and talk to the head chef.
I look forward to your response regarding this matter.
Yours sincerely,
Rona Olivar

How did the setting of Malala's education change after the Taliban took over Swat Valley? She had to read at home or attend school in secret locations. She joined other children at the playground to read and study. She stopped trying to pursue an education in any way. She continued to attend the same school she had before.
Answer:
She had to read at home or attend school in secret locations.
Explanation:
When the Taliban took control of the Swat Valley, Malala, like other children, was banned from attending school. The Taliban is not in favor of the traditional education offered to the entire population, especially for women, who they affirm that they should not study at all. However, Malala did not give up her right to obtain a quality education and continued attending school in secret places and reading at home, as much as she could.

Are " Presidential conventions occur every four years during the summer." a simple sentence, compound sentence, complete sentence, or compound-complex sentence?
Answer:
The sentence "Presidential conventions occur every four years during the summer" is a simple sentence.
Explanation:
A simple sentence is formed by an independent clause. An independent clause has a subject and a verb, and is able to express a complete thought on its own. The sentence we are analyzing here is a simple sentence. It consists of only one clause, and that clause is independent. It makes sense on its own, not needing another clause to add information or context.
NOTE: If this question allows for more than option to be selected, then we can also choose "complete sentence" as a correct option. A complete sentence has a subject and a finite verb, which is the case here.
7Choose the answer that best completes the sentence. When Ali appeared on the scene in the 1960s, it was popular among those in the vanguard of the Civil Rights Movement to take the "safe," nonthreatening path. _________, Ali preached not "white American values," but freedom and equality of a kind rarely seen anywhere in the world.
Answer:
B. In contrast
Explanation:
The first sentence shows what was popular among the many people who partook in the Civil Rights Movement in the 1960's. Many of them chose the safe path because the agitation was a volatile one that could provoke attacks from the White community.
Unlike these other people, Ali did not preach American values but freedom and equality. This shows that there was a contrast or difference between Ali and the others who engaged in the Civil Rights Movement.

Finally, number 10 talks of the different textures when you add fish or meat to a salad. This is actually a good combination, the different textures making the salad more appealing.
