Disney Educational - Bill Nye The Science Guy - Forests
Forests are very complex ecosystems, and Bill Nye is all set to help students understand what they are all about. While their most obvious feature is trees, there's a world of activity and purpose in a forest, whether it is a tropical, deciduous, or rain forest. In Bill Nye the Science Guy: Forests, Nye shows students the levels of a forest, which include the canopy, the under story, and the floor.
The Science Guy talks about the barrage of objects from space in Bill Nye the Science Guy: Comets and Meteors, part of his popular series aimed at young science students. Bill Nye bombards his audience with hard facts about comets, meteors, and smaller debris that slam into the Earth, other planets, and their moons throughout the solar system. He discusses the theories that a meteor impact caused the death of the dinosaurs and that a comet brought life in its most primitive form to Earth.
The Overcoat is the story of Bashmachkin, an impoverished clerk who has toiled for a number of years in an unspecified department within the huge government bureaucracy in St. Petersburg. The tale is told by an unnamed narrator with a tendency to digress and editorialize. Critics have disagreed about how closely the narrator should be identified with Gogol and about how much sympathy the author intended his readers to feel for Akaky the clerk. The tone of the narration is at various times condescending, compassionate, humorous and nightmarish.
