Read this excerpt from Leah Missbach Day’s foreword to Wheels of Change. In efforts to restart the lives of those devastated by

the crushing waves of the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, my husband, F. K. Day, and I founded World Bicycle Relief (WBR). WBR works to provide access to independence and livelihood through the power of bicycles. During our work in Sri Lanka in 2005-2006, we put more than 24,000 new bicycles into the hands of those rebuilding their lives. Since 2006, we have moved into Africa where we currently work in Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Kenya addressing oppressive poverty and the AIDS pandemic by mobilizing volunteer caregivers, students, and entrepreneurs with bicycles.
What is the central idea of the excerpt?
A. WBR was founded in an attempt to assist the victims of a tsunami in 2004
B. WBR believes that bicycles can transform lives by providing independence
C. WBR has moved its headquarters to Africa, where health problems prevail.
D. WBR gives bicycles to everyone struggling with social and health issues.

Lines 39-42 what is the premise in the paragraph that begins on line 39?
erica [24]

This question is about Ronald Reagan's speech, entitled "A Time for Choosing".

Answer:

As you did not provide the lines to which this question refers, my answer may be a little inaccurate, because the numbering of lines I have from this course may be different from the numbering of lines to which your question refers.

However, the premise in the paragraph that begins on line 39 according to my text is that the loss of freedom is not beneficial to anyone and that it causes pain and suffering to anyone.

Explanation:

On line 39 Reagan talks about the experience that a friend of his, a Cuban refugee, had to face because of the country's lack of freedom. he had to flee from Cuba, even though he was a successful businessman. Some people reported that he was lucky to be able to leave the country and he even agrees, because he had this option, although many of his fellow citizens do not.

Reagan uses this story to show how the lack of freedom is harmful to anyone, regardless of their social position or their ability to escape. The lack of freedom is harmful for that reason, it cannot be allowed in America.

atroni [7]

Answer:

Wolves or a Canis Lupus are amazing animals that live on earth since about million years ago.And during all their years , they have hunted in packs like 6-10 wolves in a pack.And they roam around for  12 miles or more to find their food/prey  like reindeers, beavers,and a snowshoe hare depending on where they live.They don't have predators since they are at the top of the food chain except humans who shoot them in the shooting seasons which is decreasing the wolves population.Which might go extinct sadly.
