there are different meanings of soil. here are a few with some examples :

-"She soiled herself because her parents wouldn't take her to the bathroom." You can first assume it has to do with the bathroom because it says so in the text, now another definition of soil is dirt, or the top layer of the earth. using this definition you can assume it is dirty. Then another clue would be that SHE soiled HERSELF. Using these clues you can assume it means that she had to use the BATHROOM and because her parents wouldn't let her she went to the bathroom on herself.

-"The Gardner put some new soil down to help cover the gopher holes." You can now assume that soil has to do with gardening because it says so in the text. You can also infer that they used it to cover gopher holes. You can now get a better understanding because gophers like to dig holes in dirt. Using these clues you can predict soil is dirt.

Do your experiences at this time of pandemic change the way you decide on things? in what way??

natima [27]

Answer with Explanation:

Yes, my experience at this time of pandemic changed the way I decide on things. For example, I decided to spend more time at home rather than going to the mall, which I normally did before the pandemic. I believe this will lessen the possibility of my contracting the corona virus. I also celebrated my birthday at home with my family instead of celebrating it with my classmates. Instead of going to the restaurant to eat or take out food, I'd order through Food Apps. In this case, I don't need to commute (as this increases my exposure to the virus) and it's more convenient.

If ever I go out of the house, I make sure to bring a mask and an alcohol with me. Upon going home, I also make sure to take a bath. Such things are now included in my decisions.
