    Death penalty ought to be replaced everywhere by imprisonment for life. "I don't agree with you," said their host the banker. "I have not tried either the death penalty or imprisonment for life, but if one may judge a priori, the death penalty is more moral and more humane than imprisonment for life... LOOK BEING HONEST I AM NOT SO GOOD IN THIS... THTS WHY I WANT YOUR HELP... IF I DO ANY MISTAKE THAN I AM SORRY

    All right. Let's back up the bus.

    The story starts with an old banker remembering a party he gave 15 years ago. Tell me who was at the party and what was being argued about.

    Hey I don't understand this sentence They considered that form of punishment out of date, immoral, and unsuitable for Christian States. In the opinion of some of them the death penalty ought to be replaced everywhere by imprisonment for life.

    Christian States believe in the Bible. What does the Bible say about the death penalty (capital punishment)?

    imprisonment for life = being in jail for the rest of your life

    It would help if I know what country you live in and what language you speak as a native.

    The banker had given a party 15 years ago. At the party were smart, well-educated men who disagreed about capital punishment and life imprisonment. Most seemed to believe life imprisonment was to be preferred, especially by Christian countries that believe in the Bible. The death penalty means to kill someone, and God tells us in His commandments not to kill. Life imprisonment would be the kinder way to punish criminals.

    This is not an analysis. It is only a rewriting of that paragraph.

    OK I have to make 200 words.. so I am working on it... I took your lines and rest is mine... ok here you go.
    "The Bet" is a short story by Anton Cheknov, The banker had given a party 15 years ago. At the party were smart, well-educated men who disagreed about capital punishment and life imprisonment. Most seemed to believe life imprisonment was to be preferred, especially by Christian countries who believe in the Bible. The death penalty means to kill someone, and God tells us in His commandments not to kill. Life imprisonment would be the kinder way to punish criminals. Banker argued that capital punishment is more humane than life imprisonment, while the young lawyer disagreed, insisting that he would choose life in prison rather than death. The banker, a spoiled and pampered man, is very nervous and gets himself carried away by excitement at the time he makes a bet with the lawyer.

    I AM STLL WRITTING ON IT AS I HAVE TO WRITE 200 WORDS

    You started this thread by saying, "i have to write passage from short story to explain one paragraph." Now you are discussing the second paragraph, plus you stole what I had written in trying to explain to you what was going on in the first paragraph. All you are doing so far is putting Chekov into your own words (and mine). Is that the assignment?

    I remember many months ago that someone asked a question about writing a ternary form composition for a college assignment. No problem for me!

    We worked very hard on it. I don't know why he was given such an assignment because through interrogatory discovery, it became very evident that he didn't know all that much about music writing at all.

    I fairly certain that he plagiarized the work that I did as he never responded to questions I asked after the piece was finished.

    I don't mind if people use the music that I write for them to have some sort of pleasure, but to steal my work to make them look good for an assignment... well, that's just plain wrong and dishonest!

    Please show your own efforts with what you do for your school work.

    Thanks!

    You have to analyze one paragraph or the entire story?

    I want YOU to do the assignment, and I'm still not sure what that is.
