<u>Answer: </u>

Question 1: to indicate a pause

Question 2: False

Question 3: man and eating

<u>Explanation:</u>

Question 1:

  • The hyphen is used to link two words together.

For example:

A family-owned restaurant

  • The hyphen is used to separate syllables in a word. For example, televi-

sion.

  •   The hyphen is used in some situations with prefixes. One rule states that you can use a hyphe if it comes before proper nouns or proper adjectives. For example: trans-Atlantic, mid-October

The hyphen is not used to indicate a pause.

Question 2:

It's false.

  • They are not the same symbol. The hyphen is shorter.
  • Hyphens are not separated by spaces, while a dash has a space on either side.
  • Hyphens are mainly used for the reasons stated above, while dashes are  used to mark a pause. They are parenthetical statements.
  • Hyphens are used ot separate parts of words, dashes are used to separate groups of words.  

Question 3:

The correct way of using a hyphen is <em>the man-eating jellyfish</em>.

The rule here is: use a hyphen to join two or more words that come before a noun and act as an adjective. This is called a <em>compound adjective</em>.

Answer:

Making a transition to High School

Although I knew it would be a change from elementary school, high school

was a total surprise to me. In particular, I was most shocked by three differences that asserted that high school would be an entirely different experience.

One difference that I noticed right away is that the subjects I am taking are definitely more complex and advanced. For example, in Elementary school I took science and math and now I have biology and algebra classes instead. High school also offers more subjects than elementary. I find that with all the new subjects learning has become more interesting.

Another surprise is the amount of homework. I find that I have twice as much homework in high school compared to elementary school. In elementary school I spent about an hour every week night doing homework but now I spend about two hours a day, sometimes even on weekends. However, longer library periods help me get some of my homework done during school hours. Although the homework takes longer and is harder than before, it gives me a sense of accomplishment and fulfillment.

When I discovered I was having trouble concentrating in library periods, I realized how much more crowded high school is compared to Elementary school. The library is jam packed with students, many of whom I don’t even know. With so many students, high school has a more competitive atmosphere. An example of this is seen in the overwhelming number of students trying out for the same spots on the sports teams. Nevertheless, the added rivalry has a beneficial hand, It Keeps me clever.

While the distinctions between elementary and high school are significant, At first, I was unsettled, but now I find that they all have a strong plus side. I’m beginning to embrace the idea that high school is a whole new experience. The changes such as the different subjects, more homework and a bigger crowd become less surprising everyday.

I hope it helps.
