The climbing season of 2006 was the deadliest on record for those attempting to conquer Mount Everest, the world’s tallest mount

ain, as more people perished attempting to reach the summit in 2006 than in any other year. Almost all of these deaths occurred in the unforgiving "death-zone" above 26,000 feet. Oddly, though, the 2006 season enjoyed exceptionally ideal climbing weather compared to more typical years.Which of the following, if true, best explains the apparent contradiction in the above passage?(A) The warmer the weather, the more likely it is that crevasses (deep holes) will open up unexpectedly in the ice.(B) In 2006, fewer climbing teams than usual were forced to turn back at some point during the ascent prior to reaching the "death-zone."(C) In recent years, more amateurs have attempted to climb the world's great peaks, including Everest.(D) In 2006, authorities suspended climbs due to inclement weather on fewer days than the average for more typical years.(E) Although the 2006 season overall enjoyed ideal weather conditions, the one major storm was one of the worst on record.

Write a letter to your friend describing how you saved a child who was in danger<br><br><br><br>​
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Number 12 Aventon Street,

Birmingham.

September 15, 2020.

Dear Liam, how are you doing? I hope you're doing fine.

Man you would never believe that I became superman for 3 minutes yesterday as I rescued a child from an armed attacker.

Now, don't laugh. This is serious. It was a life and death stuff, yeah I know I'm scrawny and skinny but yesterday all those was replaced by cold rage and a sense of duty to save the young lad.

On my way home just past six in the evening, I saw a young teen arguing with an older boy about something, I decided to mind my business, when suddenly the bigger (and older) guy brought out a jack knife!

I acted without thinking, and I'm glad I did because it probably saved the young lad's life. I struggled with the attacker for a while, after he had already slashed the kid on the arm a few times, I overpowered him and with the help of some bystanders, we rendered him immobile. The police was called and they took the rascal away.

Well, enough of my three minutes heroics, hope you're having a swell time over there.

Have a blessed weekend, man.

YOURS FAITHFULLY,

Aaron Connolly.
