<span>When there is a one syllable word there is a single vowel followed by a single consonant at the ending, the ending of a consonant is doubled (x2) before a suffix beginning with a vowel. I hope this helped</span>

In this case, we just add the suffix. When we add the suffix to the words ending with consonant, nothing changes. For example, sad + <em>ness </em>= sadness or sad +<em>ly </em>= sadly. When we add the suffix to the words ending with vowel, again there is no change, because the suffix begins with a consonant. For example, state + <em>ment </em>= statement or force + <em>ful </em>= forceful.

Answer:

Mobile phones have become a staple of our society, with everyone from elementary school kids to senior citizens owning at least one. Although mobile apps and texting have made our lives easier, some question the impact they’ve had on the relationships we have with one another.

After losing part of her vision three years ago, Dr. Lisabeth Saunders Medlock, PhD, CLC, owner of Life by Design Coaching, can no longer see her cell phone. She replaced her Blackberry with a flip phone that reads out loud to her.

“I have a mobile phone that is a basic flip phone where it talks aloud to tell me who is calling and reads all the screens and text aloud,” she says. “I really love the fact I am not always looking at a phone. I can interact and socialize and truly have to be in each moment because I cannot distract or amuse myself with my phone.

“It is also freeing to not really have to respond to emails or even text messages when I choose to not be available. What it forces me and others to do is pick up the phone and talk. Having those dialogues has deepened friendships and allowed me to get to know people better.”

“And if I really needed to use GPS or look up a number, I am usually with a person who can do that for me,” she continues. “I am glad I cannot use a smartphone because it would waste time and energy and probably make me less smart.”

Addicted to Mobile Phones

Todd Starkweather, General Studies program director at South University, Richmond believes a lot of people are at least somewhat addicted to their cell phone.

“I see it frequently in my classes,” he says. “I make certain that students using their phones don’t disturb the learning of others, but do not make an active effort to police an individual who may not be paying attention.”

Starkweather says it’s up to the student whether or not they choose to spend class time listening and learning, or wasting their time on the phone.

As for the impact mobile phones have made on his own personal life, Starkweather says it’s helped him to stay more connected to family and friends than he was in the past.

I never take my phone into my classroom when I teach. Somehow I’m able to get through that hour and 40 minutes without my phone.

“I suppose I’m in much more constant contact with individuals, getting frequent updates,” he says.

He remembers the days before mobile phones when it wouldn’t seem like a long time to go eight hours not hearing from close friends or family members.

For example, before everyone had mobile phones, he says if a friend went on vacation you probably wouldn’t hear from them while they’re away, but now you often receive frequent updates of their journey from the road.

Although having the ability to connect with anyone, at almost anytime, is convenient, Starkweather doesn’t feel it’s necessary to have the device glued to his side at all times.

“There are times when I simply put the phone away, times I don’t need it,” Starkweather says.

“I never take my phone into my classroom when I teach,” Starkweather adds. “Somehow I’m able to get through that hour and 40 minutes without my phone.”

Mobile Phones Changing Interpersonal Communication

Saunders Medlock advises mobile phone users to set rules and practice good phone etiquette.

“Some of these are no phones at a meal, whether it be at home or eating out; no checking the phone on a date or when you are out with friends; phone is off at critical meetings and set to vibrate at others,” she says. “And it goes without saying you should not be on or using your phone while driving.”

She says people are in the habit of checking their cell phone in short intervals of time, like every five minutes.

“I have heard people say that they are afraid they will miss something if they do not do the checking,” she says. “And when people are not doing anything else they tend to interact with their phones to distract or entertain themselves. I have seen people in the line for the bathroom playing with their phones.”

She believes this constant reliance on mobile phones is having a negative impact on people’s interpersonal skills.

To understand the effect of Smartphones and social media on interpersonal communication, she recommends reading the book, Alone Together: Why We Expect More from Technology and Less from Each Other, by Sherry Turkle.

“Katelynn meandered…” the description of the way she walks helps give a vivid image. This sentence also gives us the most information about her personality and how she acts in society: zoning everyone out. in her own world reading. not focused on people around her, forcing the zigzag pattern. “meandered” showing how she’s a calm and more innocent person. hope this helped!!

What is the central idea of William Blake "the school boy"​
laila [671]

Answer:

The speaker of the poem is a young boy who's at school in the summer. He can't focus in class because he wants so badly to play outside and enjoy the weather; he feels like a songbird trapped in a cage. Towards the poem's end, the boy wonders how children can grow and thrive if they are not allowed to enjoy the summer.

Explanation:

“The School Boy” is a poem included in William Blake’s collection Songs of Innocence. It is told from the perspective of a young boy going to school on a summer day. The boy loves summer mornings, but to have to go to school when the weather is so nice is a misery to him. He sits at his desk in boredom and cannot pay one iota of attention to the lesson, so desperately does he wish to be playing outside. In the fourth verse, the speaker asks, “How can the bird that is born for joy / Sit in a cage and sing?” Here the poet is comparing young children, so full of energy and happiness, to songbirds, who deserve to tumble free and soar on the winds. But, like songbirds trapped in a cage, children trapped in a classroom cannot express themselves, cannot capitalize on all that excess energy, and therefore their potential is being wasted.

The speaker addresses parents in the final two verses, asking how, “…if buds are nipped / …and if the tender plants are stripped / of their joy...How shall…the summer fruits appear?” That is, if children are stripped of their ability to play and have fun in the summer season, how shall they grow and develop to the fullest extent?

This poem is about allowing children to be children – to run and play outside, to experience the benefits of nature and of the seasons. This practice is equally as beneficial to them as academic learning, and in times such as those in the poem, arguably more so, for on this beautiful summer day the speaker can pay no attention to his lessons – he would rather be outside.
