Detailed Questions
1. The Honey badgers reputation is not one that many animals have
that is because they are fearless and tireless fighters. If any creature
as much as even moves close to them with any harmful intentions
them they will instantly defend themselves using ways that might
seem almost impossible for any animal its size. Some animals try
to take advantage of the honey badgers reputation because their
qualities are very useful. Like an example are cheetah kittens, adult
cheetahs have spotted fur, but their kittens have silver manes that
are quite similar to the honey badgers appearance, this helps them
to survive in the wild because they look like the honey badgers
who as we already know are fearless creatures and they are not
even afraid of lions, who is the animal which all creatures are
afraid of. So it is quite obvious why many animals probably envy
this quality of the honey badger and also why they desire to have
it. This look helps the kittens survive because the animals think
that they are meeting a honey badger and not a kitten which would
be a delicious treat for their hungry stomach which is growling for
food.
2. I think the author describes honey badgers as tireless fighters
because they never give up until their opponent either gives up or
gets defeated they never give up instead they keep on going until
they reach their goal which is to defeat their opponent. In other
circumstances it fights till death or until the attacker/opponent tires
and then the honey badger will make a run for it.
3. I think the safest thing to do when face to face with a honey badger
is to back away slowly without making any sudden motion or loud
sound. Avoid making noises in attempts to scare them away
because they are very likely to fire back. Never try to deliberately
harm them or remove them from their place because they will lash
out and can harm you greatly because of their amazing defense
qualities. Some of which include that they have thick, loose skin
which protects it from harm. Also they can fight for hours on end.
So we should maintain distance if we ever see these barbarous
mammals because they can greatly harm us in several ways.
4. A honey badger does not resemble other species of badgers instead
its appearance more relatable to a skunks and weasels. They have
long claws and thick loose skin which protects it against injury. It
has a flattened body with short, strong legs. Its hair is thick and
mostly black except for a big gray stripe in the middle which goes
from the head to the tail. They are short in height.

Composition
Meeting new people is a common everyday experience, it can be
awkward and kind of scary, but it can end up quite well and the new
person who you met today could be tomorrows friend. Though this
experience might be a little frightening it can help the new person if they
are new to your everyday surroundings. Different types of people mean
different approaches to introduce a person to a new one. Some people
just ignore the newbies and some guide them well, some are just too
frightened to introduce themselves and others just bully them to make
them feel insecure. In my knowledge I think the best way to introduce
yourself to someone new is to tell your name and where you are from
etc. then ask for basic information such as their name and where they are
from and then offer them a tour if he or she is at a school or any other
education related building which you know well. Try to introduce them
to your friends and teachers. Share with them any rules about the place.
And eagerly answer any questions that they ask. Welcome them with a
warm smile so that they feel free to ask you any questions. When a
person arrives in a new environment they feel quite lonely and isolated
and some help can definitely bring a smile on their face and make them
feel less lonely and can help raise their spirits. They will probably
acknowledge it more than you think. Meeting new people can be a trying
experience especially if they are vain or shy ,but believe me it really
helps them get through the day. Knowing the right way to do it makes it
more easier so next time you meet someone new you know the way to
make them feel at home and bring them a truck load of comfort and
friendliness
