Gerrymandering definition:


Gerrymandering is the practice of setting boundaries of electoral districts to favor specific political interests within legislative bodies, often resulting in districts with convoluted, winding boundaries rather than compact areas. Gerrymandering in the United States has been used as early as 1788 to increase the power of a political party; the term "gerrymandering" was coined on review of Massachusetts's redistricting maps of 1812 set by Governor Elbridge Gerry, so named for its resemblance to a salamander.

Answer:

Gerrymandering is when a political group tries to change a voting district to create a result that helps them or hurts the group who is against them. Gerrymandering works by wasting votes.

Which sentence uses the active voice?
qwelly [4]

Answer:

I finished my research paper two days early.

Explanation:

The passive means that something is being done to the subject. Since in the first two sentences the subject is research paper, and something is being done to them passively, these first sentences are passive. However, in the third, “I” is the subject, and “I” is doing something to the research paper, which, in this sentence, is the predicate. Since the subject is actively doing something to the predicate, this sentence is active.

Write an article about The importance of sports and games.<br>please answer quickly ​
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

Education doesn't mean just learn what's written in the book. Eduction is everything we learn about. Sports and games are also really important in a student's life other than education. A child's health is really important. Through sports and games children can really improve the health.

Games not only improve a child's health but also mentally builds a child. Playing sports and games gives child mental health. It gives self confidence and team spirit. They are also the part of education.

Now a days children are lacking behind in sports and games. What parents give importance the most is for studies. They forget that the child's health is also important. But now the schools try their level best to ensure the child's physical and mental health. They give games nd physical education training to the children.

Playing games gives happiness to the children. While playing games children mingle with new students and become close to everyone. They develop skills while playing. Which can further go to higher plays. Children should be sent out and allowed to play. A student can learn properly only if they are mentally well. And playing helps them to be mentally healthy.

So games and sports must become a part in the students life. If we give little more encouragement to the students who are interested in sports then they can achieve high. They will give name and fame to our country. Sports and games are a part of student's life.

Hope this helps you.....^-^
