1. Write a brief description of one of the following: (a) fishermen at work by the sea
(b) a flooded street (c)
a cinema lobby just after a show
(d) the street where your school is situated
(e) a quiet evening at the beach
(f) the beach on Sunday
(g) the view from the window of your house/flat
(h) a bus-stop in town during the rush hour
(i) the market near your house
(j) a harbour scene

(a)Even before the sun rises and warms the sea, there are men at work, braving the elements. The fishermen — depending on whether the type of catch they want — set out in the middle of the night or very early in the morning. To catch fish with metal hooks suspended by nylon threads is what takes the longest, and this sees them travelling deep into the sea. But to get a catch using their nets they don't have to travel far. A ride in their motorised boats before sunrise will do. But there are also times when they go deep sea fishing in large boats stocked with food and water to help them survive 10 days at sea.

Once they are back in the morning, the boat is hauled to shore by the fishermen, who venture out in groups of four, sharing the burden, cost, profits and losses alike. There are days when they are blessed with plenty, but on other days they return empty-handed, with a loss of about Rs. 400 that they spend on diesel to fuel the motors.

The catch is removed from the nets and sorted according to the type — crabs, Red Snapper, Blue Fish, Butter Fish, Cat Fish, Mullet, Smelt, Salmon and more. The fishermen need to invest in 10 different types of nets depending on what they plan to catch, with the most expensive net costing around Rs.1 lakh, and each weighing between five kilos and 400 kilos.

Once sorted, the fishermen's wives sell the fish in the market. Fishermen also sell to vendors depending on the best price offered and the vendors in turn sell them at the market.

In the evenings, the fishermen are free to relax, watch TV, spend time with family and catch up on gossip over mending nets and preparing for the next day.

While it is a profession filled with uncertainty, also uncertain is the future of this profession. Many fishermen send their children to school and want them to hold other jobs in fields like software and teaching. They say that they do not want their children to struggle as they do and want a better life for them, leaving the future of this sea-dependent occupation in question.

Hope it helps :)

we use triangle sum thereom for this answer. which states that x+y+z=180

so 79+37+y=180

solve, and you get 64 degrees.

leave a , and rate it 5 stars if it !

the sentence does not violate the phrase structure second rule (introduced by noam chomsky) because noun phrases consist of a determiner such as a, the or every, and a noun. in the sentence, the noun phrase the cake includes a determiner (the) and a noun (cake).

on the other hand, the first rule indicates that a sentence encloses a noun phrase, followed by a verb phrase. the example sentence can be analysed as follows:

john (n) + ate (v) + the (det) + cake (n).
