Answer:

Some sounds are in contrastive distribution and others in complementary distribution.

Explanation:

The sounds [k] and [x] are contrastive,

[kano] 'do'

[xano] 'lose'

The sounds [ç] and [c] are contrastive,

[çino] 'pour'

[cino] 'move'

The sounds [k] and [c] are in complementary distribution. The palatal stop appears before front vowels, whereas the velar stop appears elsewhere. The sounds [ç] and [x] are in complementary distribution, like the stops, palatal before front vowels, but otherwise velar.

It is logical to infer that Mrs. Sommers avoided "such morbid retrspection" because
nexus9112 [7]
Okay so...

Morbid means to be appealed to death,
Retrospection means a look into the past.

We can infer she avoids Morbid Retrospection due to a rough past that could have caused PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). Someone could have died in her past that was close to her.

Write a story illustrating the saying better late than never​
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

I found this cute story

Ed Whitlock, an 85-year-old Canadian engineer, set a new 42.195km world record in the 85-90 year old category at the last Toronto Marathon: his final time was 3 hours and 56 minutes, over half an hour shorter than the previous record. At the end of the race the Canadian did not even appear too tired, only regret not having taken 6 minutes less.

"I was aiming for 3 hours and 50, but after halfway through the race I realized it was too difficult", this was his statement, while he complained with a smile of "pain in the legs". Those legs that allowed him to reach an enviable time by runners of all ages in the 2004 Toronto Marathon, which he finished in under 3 hours - exactly, 2 hours, 54 minutes and 49 seconds - at just 73 years old!

And he started running at 40, an age that often coincides with the retirement of professional runners, who instead for him, thanks to so much tenacity and willpower, marked the starting point to crush record after record. When asked what he will do when he grows up, he replies: "Nobody knows when the time for the last race will come, but I will continue to run as long as I can."
