2.1 sources of law british common law
Common law originated in England and has spread to other countries like Australia. It is law developed by judges through precedents set in past cases, rather than law made by parliament. Judges must follow statutes but can interpret them and fill gaps using common law principles. Over time, as more cases were decided, a system of precedent developed where judges are bound by past decisions of higher courts. Equity later developed to provide remedies where common law was deficient, using moral principles of fairness. Both legal systems now coexist in Australia with precedent and equity considered together. The adversarial system used in common law involves opposing sides arguing their case before a neutral decision maker.
Bayonet Charge
The poem describes a soldier's experience during a bayonet charge in World War I. It shows the soldier awakening in a state of confusion and terror as he runs towards enemy lines under gunfire. As he runs, the soldier questions his purpose for being there and what has become of his patriotic ideals. By the end, his only motivation left is survival driven by fear and terror, as he mindlessly plunges towards the enemy.

An inspector calls - character and theme revision
Here is an analysis of two dramatic devices in An Inspector Calls and their intended effects on the audience:
The use of dramatic irony is highly effective when the Inspector reveals that Eva Smith is in fact the same girl each character had encountered. The audience knows from the start that the girl's full name is Eva Smith, but the characters do not. When the Inspector connects each of their stories to the same girl, the other characters and the audience experience a shocking revelation. This builds dramatic tension as the audience waits with dread for each character's secrets to be uncovered.
Priestley also uses interruptions strategically to assert the Inspector's authority and disrupt the characters' sense of control. For example, when Mr. Birling is dismissing the
Exposure wilfred owen
Wilfred Owen was an English poet who served as an officer in the Manchester Regiment during World War I. He suffered shell shock after being caught in explosions that killed fellow officers. Owen was sent to Craiglockhart War Hospital in Edinburgh to recover, where he met fellow poet Siegfried Sassoon, who encouraged Owen to write poetry protesting the war. Though he recovered from his injuries, Owen continued serving until he was killed in action just one week before the end of the war.
Storm on the island
The poem "Storm on the Island" by Seamus Heaney describes a powerful storm hitting a small island community off the coast of Ireland. In the first few lines, the community feels prepared and secure in their sturdy cottages. However, as the storm intensifies, feelings of fear and isolation set in. Nature becomes a violent and destructive force as the trees and sea, normally comforting, now threaten the islanders. By the end, the community feels helpless against the huge and invisible force of the storm. The poem uses imagery and metaphors of war to convey the terror and lack of control experienced during the storm.
Poppies
The poem "Poppies" describes a mother's experience of her son leaving home to fight in the army. She helps him prepare his uniform, feeling sad and worried for his safety. When he leaves, she goes to places that remind her of him, including his bedroom and the pear tree in the yard. Later, she visits the war memorial, hoping to hear his childhood voice on the wind but finding only his name inscribed among the fallen. The poem uses imagery of innocence like doves and playgrounds to represent the son's youth before being lost to war.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
