Which root in this excerpt from Horseshoes by Ring Lardner means “strong”? They was one out when Barry hit one through the box f

or a base. Schang walked, and it was Bush's turn. Connie told him to bunt, but he whiffed in the attempt. Then Murphy comes up and walks—and the bases are choked. Young Joyce had been pie for Tesreau all day or else McGraw might of changed pitchers right there. Anyway he left Big Jeff in and he beaned Joyce with a fast one. It sounded like a tire blowin' out. Joyce falls over in a heap and we chase out there, thinkin' he's dead; but he ain't, and pretty soon he gets up and walks down to first base. Tesreau had forced in a run and again we begun to count the winner's end. Matty comes in to prevent further damage and Collins flies the side out.

The cost of children by Ruth Mace, explain four causes advanced by the researchers to explain the decline in the number of child
tia_tia [17]
The article provides three causes of the decline in the number of children being born.

The first cause is the reduction of mortality. If fewer children die at their youngest age, parents naturally don't need to have more babies so that more of them would survive. Also, there isn't an emotional need to "fill the void" after the death of an infant. This is the so-called risk and mortality factor.

The second cause of fertility decline is the so-called economic-and-investment model, which means how wealthy the families are, and how capable they are of distributing resources among their children. For example, owing or not owing farmland was proved to be one of the very important factors in predicting the fertility rates in a society.

The third cause is the cultural transmission, that is, the transmission of the cultural model of small families with fewer children. This transmission happens via education. However, this conclusion is not enough; education is a bridge between the cultural transmission and economic-and-investment model, as it leads to better social and financial status.

maxonik [38]

Answer:

A) Complicated stories with twists and puzzles. - Fans of mysteries

B) Life lessons told through complex sentences. - Adults

C) Sweet stories about happy encounters. - Fans of romance

D) Dark stories about strange encounters. - Fans of horror

E) wonder told through simple sentences. - Children

Explanation:

The type of writing has correctly been matched to the type of audience it has been written for intentionally.

The fans of mysteries love puzzling and suspenseful plot in which the actions are uncertain and unpredictable. Thus, they would like 'complicated stories with a number of twists to enhance their interest and create suspense.

The adults are more likely to display matured behavior and show interest in reading texts conveying some important lessons or messages.

While the fans of romance prefer sweet love stories and exciting, joyous encounters between two people.

Fans of horror like dark and frightening stories full of terror and suspense created by strange encounters.

And since the kids are more imaginative and curious yet cognitively less developed, they are introduced to a story using simple sentences for better comprehension.
