For split direct speech over multiple sentences, punctuation is used to end the first part of speech and the second part begins with a new letter.

Introduction to A Christmas Carol
Charles Dickens was born in 1812 in Portsmouth, England. His most famous work, A Christmas Carol, tells the story of Ebenezer Scrooge through five chapters or "staves."

The story is set in 1800s London and describes elements of life at that time, including doors, food, pubs, and asylums like Bedlam which were known for their cruelty.
Agatha Christie
Agatha Christie is considered the best-selling author of all time, second only to the Bible. She created two famous detectives - the eccentric Belgian Hercule Poirot and the inquisitive Miss Jane Marple. Christie wrote over 60 detective novels and short story collections, as well as several romantic novels published under the pseudonym Mary Westmacott. She received Britain's highest honor when appointed Dame Commander of the British Empire in 1971, and died in 1976 after a short illness.
Edgar Allan Poe Background 2009
Edgar Allan Poe was born in 1809 in Boston to actors Eliza Poe and David Poe Jr. He was orphaned as a child and was adopted by John and Fanny Allan. Poe struggled financially throughout his life and with alcoholism. He published several short stories and poems that were not very successful until 1841's "The Murders in the Rue Morgue," considered the first detective fiction story. Poe died under mysterious circumstances in 1849 in Baltimore at the age of 40. Though his life was difficult, Poe has become famous for his writings and is still celebrated today through tributes like the Baltimore Ravens mascot and the mysterious "Poe Toaster."
Gerunds 8
Gerunds are verbals that act as nouns. They end in "-ing" and can play many of the same roles as nouns in sentences, such as subject, direct object, or object of a preposition. Gerunds are harder to remove from sentences than participles because they serve important noun functions, whereas participles are more optional like adjectives. Identifying a phrase as a gerund or participle depends on whether the sentence still makes sense without the phrase.
Participles Power Point 8
This document discusses participles and participial phrases. A participle is a verb form used as an adjective that ends in -ing, -d, -ed, -en, or -t. A participial phrase consists of a participle plus any modifiers. To identify a participle or participial phrase, find the subject and real verb, then look for other verb-like words. Examples are provided to demonstrate how participles and participial phrases modify nouns and pronouns.
Complements 7
This document defines and provides examples of different types of complements in English grammar:
1) Direct objects answer the questions "whom?" or "what?" after a transitive verb and receive the action of the verb.
2) Indirect objects tell "to what" or "to whom" or "for what" or "for whom" the action of the verb is done and appear between the verb and direct object.
3) Subject complements complete the meaning of a linking verb and identify or describe the subject. Predicate nominatives identify the subject and predicate adjectives describe the subject.
8P Prepositional Phrases 09
This document discusses prepositional phrases, adjective phrases, and adverb phrases. Adjective phrases modify nouns and answer questions like "which one" or "what kind". Adverb phrases modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs and answer questions like "how", "when", or "to what extent". The document provides examples of these phrases and rules about their position in sentences, noting that adverb phrases can be moved but adjective phrases cannot. It concludes with practice identifying these phrases in sample sentences.
IQC to Umbrella
This document outlines three steps to transform a single-idea paragraph into an umbrella paragraph that incorporates multiple ideas:
1. Choose three relevant quotations and order them chronologically, by importance, or with the strongest last.
2. Add transitional phrases between the quotations like "In addition to...", "Not only...but also", or "Furthermore..." instead of words like "firstly" or "next".
3. Assemble the paragraph with an introductory thesis statement, three idea sentences paired with quotations and commentary, clear transitions, and a concluding clincher sentence.
8P Umbrella Paragraph
The document discusses the umbrella paragraph structure for essays. It should have a generalization as the topic sentence rather than listing specific points. The paragraph uses quotes and examples from the text to support the main idea. Quotes should be introduced, presented exactly with page numbers, and commented on in context. The conclusion restates the author's name, title, and analyzes the overall work.
7P English House Of Commas
Commas are used in English in several situations:
1) Before coordinating conjunctions joining two independent clauses.
2) Around introductory phrases and clauses.
3) After introductory elements like direct address, transitional expressions, and clauses beginning with words like when, because, although, etc.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
