"Build on a human scale" means the priority given to human beings before constructing anything else.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Architect Jan Gehl gives a better explanation of what "Build on a human scale" is. Before building a pavement or a building or even constructing a car or a bicycle, people are first taken into consideration.

"Build on a human scale" means the priority given to human beings before constructing anything else. The space that is required for the people in the city is first calculated and than the other things are taken into consideration. If not, if people weren't give a thought and just build buildings and manufacture cars, the lives would be disrespected as well as considered not important which would put an engineer at high danger.

Rewrite the sentences to eliminate wordiness and redundancy: “The balloon quickly rocketed up into the really cold air. We were
sukhopar [10]

The balloon rocketed into the sky.   Though we were frightened, everything ended up being fine.

  • The word "quickly" can be removed because speed is implied with the word "rocketed"
  • The phrase "into the really cold air" can be removed because it is irrelevant to what's happening.  It can be replaced by "into the sky"
  • Now "up" can be removed because "into the sky" implies that the balloon went upwards.
  • Either the word "scared" or "frightened" can be removed because they're synonyms (I chose to remove "scared")
  • "Because it was moving really fast" can be removed because the use of the word "rocketed" beforehand already implies that the balloon was moving fast.
  • Lastly , I just reworded and conjoined some of the sentences to make them read more clearly though this isn't necessary. (I changed the third sentence from "However, it was all good in the end," to "everything ended up being fine." I also combined the second and third sentences, adding "though" in front of the second sentence to make it a dependent clause)
