Answer:

Not sure what "Book" you read but this may help.

Booker T. Washington (1856-1915) was born into slavery and rose to become a leading African American intellectual of the 19 century, founding Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute (now Tuskegee University) in 1881 and the National Negro Business League two decades later. Washington advised Presidents Theodore Roosevelt and William Howard Taft. His infamous conflicts with black leaders like W. E. B. Du Bois over segregation caused a stir, but today, he is remembered as the most influential African American speaker of his time.

------

Booker Taliaferro Washington was born on April 5, 1856, in a slave hut in Franklin County, Virginia. His mother was a cook for the plantation’s owner. His father, a white man, was unknown to Washington. At the close of the Civil War, all the slaves owned by James and Elizabeth Burroughs—including 9-year-old Booker, his siblings, and his mother—were freed. Jane moved her family to Malden, West Virginia. Soon after, she married Washington Ferguson, a free black man.

Write a précis of "From 'On the Duty of Civil Disobedience" paragraph 1 by Henry David Thoreau
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

The actions and projects of a permanent government are carried out to the point of letting the permanent government become an inconvenience for the people, which it must represent. This is because the government is a completely corrupt system and can be used to stimulate the creation of conflicts and battles without importance that only bring disadvantages to the population. For this reason, it can be said that the best government is one that governs nothing, but the population is not ready for it.

Explanation:

The above précis was written from the first paragraph of "On the Duty of Civil Disobedience" where Thoreau exposes the governments' responsibility and incompetence to really represent the will of the people and not to be inconvenient. It also reinforces the need to allow the population to constantly complain about permanent governance, which promotes an easily corrupt and despotic system.

Research suggests that laughter improves people's emotional and physical well-being. Write a research-based essay to inform the
Furkat [3]

Answer:

It is widely known that laughter helps to reduce stress, reduce pain and improve life quality.

Explanation:

Laughter increases well being while reduces stress. A systematic review on five laughter interventions and one humor intervention on older adults showed they can improve well being, though there is more evidence needed (Gonot-Schoupinsky, FN & Garip, G, 2018).

Moreover, laughter and humour interventions have great impact on personal development and self care. A systematic review presented outcomes to believe that these interventions may have better results when they are tailored on specific needs and objectives (Gonot-Schoupinsky, FN, Garip, G Sheffield, D, 2020)

There is also a training called Laughter Yoga which is made of different techniques and excercises. A study showed a positive effect on motor functional and flexibility in people with Parkinson (Akram, K, Nader, R & Ahmad, C, 2013) However, there is a need to keep on studying Laughter Yoga interventions (Bressington, D et al, 2018)

What is the function of the gerund phrase in this sentence? walking in the deep snow made me feel as if i were on the cover of a
yuradex [85]
First, you need to know what a gerund is. It refers to a word form that looks like a verb + ing. So here, the gerund phrase is <em>walking in the deep snow. </em>Also, you need to know that gerund is practically a noun in a sentence, meaning that it can function as either a subject or an object of a sentence. Here, the correct answer is the subject. 
If you are unsure, you can replace the phrase with a pronoun He, for example: He made me feel... And you will know it is a subject, because the object would be Him.
