Answer: I tried help you out. In a lot of cases, you forgot to capitalize names. Instead of repeating "says" as well as "replies" try to use other words. My biggest tip would be to add more emotion by using rhetorical devices to your characters. You want them to be relatable. :)

Explanation:

Emma’s birthday is coming up this week and her best friend and her brother have been acting strange. Emma has been busy planning for her party for weeks. She wants it to be indoors, so she works on getting the house cleaned up for the party. She asks Shaila to come over and help her out so they can get the job done faster. Shaila comes over and the girls hang out for a bit.

“What’s your theme?”, asks Shaila.

“I’m not sure yet, I think I’m just going to just have a normal party”, replies Emma.

The girls agree that that’s a good idea and they get to work. Emma starts texting out invitations while Shaila makes sure that they have enough tables and chairs. Emma notices that Shaila didn't finish counting but is nowhere to be found. As Emma is still planning her party, Shaila is working on a big prank that she and Josh planned.

“Did you get everything ?”, Shaila asks.

“yea”, Josh replies with a shrug.

“Okay, so when are you going to put everything into place,” she asks.

“Well I was thinking that I could set it up while Emma is sleeping, and if you tell her you are sleeping over you can help me get it done faster,” Josh explains.

“Great! id-" Shaila gets cut off as Emma walks into the room.

“There you are! I’ve been looking for you everywhere” Emma exclaims with a smile.

“Oh, sorry I was just saying hi to Josh. I also thought it was a good idea to ask if he knows of anyone else, we need to invite.” Shaila saves with

“Ok let’s go get back to work,” the girls say in sync

The girls go back downstairs and start decorating the house. Hey Shaila I’m going to order the cake, says Emma. Okay, I’ll be here, replies Shaila.

Hours later...

“We should probably go to bed now”, Shaila says.

“ok” Emma replies.

Once Emma is fast asleep Shaila quietly gets up and walks out of the room. Josh has already gotten all of the old house décors down from the attic. They start to unpack all of the stuff and put it into place where it used to be.

An hour or so later, they are finished, and all the new décor is up in the attic

Wow, it looks the way it used to”, Josh whispers.

"That’s the point”, Shaila sarcastically replies

After that, they both heads back to bed

Emma wakes up extra early that morning because her cake is coming, and she needs to put up the final decorations before the guests arrive. She goes to grab her checklist that she left next to the pink flowers last night. When she gets there, she realizes that the pink flowers are not there. Instead, her list is next to a candle. She talks a look around her house and realizes that the house looks just like it did last year… see sees a paper on the couch. Its Josh’s list of decorations he needs to replace. She realized that he was trying to pull a prank on her, so she decides that she is going to get him back much better. The rest of the day at the party she decides to act like nothing even happened and like she hasn’t noticed…

Should religious belief influence law,five paragraph argument.
konstantin123 [22]

Explanation:

Whatever we make of the substance of Judge Andrew Rutherford's ruling in the Cornish private hotel case, his citation of a striking and controversial opinion by Lord Justice Laws – delivered in another religious freedom case in 2010 – is worth pausing over. The owners of the Chymorvah hotel were found to have discriminated against a gay couple by refusing them a double-bedded room. They had appealed to their right to manifest their religious belief by running their hotel according to Christian moral standards. Given the drift of recent legal judgments in cases where equality rights are thought to clash with religious freedom rights, it is no surprise that the gay couple won their case.

But quite apart from the merits of the case, judges should be warned off any future reliance on the ill-considered opinions about law and religion ventured last year by Lord Justice Laws. Laws rightly asserted that no law can justify itself purely on the basis of the authority of any religion or belief system: "The precepts of any one religion – any belief system – cannot, by force of their religious origins, sound any louder in the general law than the precepts of any other."

A sound basis for this view is Locke's terse principle, in his Letter on Toleration, that "neither the right nor the art of ruling does necessarily carry with it the certain knowledge of other things; and least of all the true religion".

But Laws seemed to ground the principle instead on two problematic and potentially discriminatory claims. One is that the state can only justify a law on the grounds that it can be seen rationally and objectively to advance the general good (I paraphrase). The question is, seen by whom? What counts as rational, objective and publicly beneficial is not at all self-evident but deeply contested, determined in the cut and thrust of democratic debate and certainly not by the subjective views of individual judges. Religiously inspired political views – such as those driving the US civil rights movement of the 1960s or the Burmese Buddhists today – have as much right to enter that contest as any others. In this sense law can quite legitimately be influenced by religion.

Laws' other claim is that religious belief is, for all except the holder, "incommunicable by any kind of proof or evidence", and that the truth of it "lies only in the heart of the believer". But many non-Christians, for example, recognise that at least some of the claims of Christianity – historical ones, no doubt, or claims about universal moral values – are capable of successful communication to and critical assessment by others. Laws' assertion is also inconsistent with his own Anglican tradition, in which authority has never been seen as based on the subjective opinions of the individual but rather on the claims of "scripture, tradition and reason" acting in concert.
