If you're failing, the best thing to do is seriously step up your effort and do all the work yourself, so you'll actually learn something, or withdraw from the course, if possible, and take it again the next time it's offered, so you will actually learn the material. You are not doing yourself any favors by using other people to give you answers so you can unethically try to pass. It will put you in a bad position later on in your education, and later on in "real" life.



Here are some "hints" that will make you wonder why you couldn't do it yourself:



14. Look at where Savannah on the map. It's very near something extremely big that tells you about it's elevation. (Atlanta is not near that big thing.)



15. When is the weather nicest in Florida?



16. This is your opinion. Surely you have an opinion, something you like about the southeast! Put that for your answer, and tell why you like it. Easy.



You should ask yourself: "Am I functionally illiterate?" I think maybe you could be. If you are, you need to really work harder instead of asking other people to do your thinking for you. If you don't know what I mean, ask a reading teacher in special education. (Special education is not only for "slow" people. It can be for gifted people, and also for people who have learning disabilities of some kind. Some of this last group of people, maybe you, can be quite smart, but have various kinds of problems that interfere with their ability to do one or more kinds of learning. It's nothing to be ashamed of. Albert Einstein belonged in special education, but he dropped out of school and educated himself through high school, and probably through most of university, also.)Plese Plese Plese Help?
