'Take the Plunge' is a fabulous article with the message that 'Determination is the key to success'. We can simply transform incomprehensible into conceivable on the off chance that we have certainty and solid self-control. The author, Gloria Emerson, has enlightened us regarding her own involvement of venturing out to demonstrate this message.

Why do you believe people are prejudiced agaist those with disabilities the sick the elderly
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer: It is my claim that disability prejudice has been viewed through the lens of prejudices such as anti-Semitism, racism, feminism and homophobia – intolerances that may not be pre-existing, but have been generally recognized and theorized earlier in time.

Explanation:

In many ways, this collection of papers on the burgeoning field of national, regional and international instruments directed towards the redress of disability discrimination is really about the existence of disability prejudice. Most of the papers focus on practical or theoretical issues raised by the laws themselves, or the jurisprudential, social and political choices that shape the drafting and enactment of laws. Nonetheless, every paper is built on the conviction that disability prejudice is a fundamental force behind the exclusion of people with disabilities from a myriad of social and economic opportunities, and one author in particular writes in detail about the personal and systemic consequences of persistent disability prejudice and stereotypes

Answer:

1. The Boston <u>Marathon</u> is an annual 26-mile race.

2. Many <u>runners</u> come from all over the world to this event.

3. The <u>race</u> begins in a suburb of Boston.

4. The <u>course</u> takes runners around the Massachusetts countryside.

5. The night before the race, many <u>runners</u> eat pasta dinners.

6. These <u>carbohydrates</u> give the runners energy and stamina.

7. During the race, many <u>runners </u>hit "the wall" after 20 miles.

8. Some <u>racers</u> are stopped by this phenomenon.

9. Approximately 6,000 <u>people</u> enter the competition each year.

10. Despite the tension and exhaustion, many <u>contestants </u>return again and...

Explanation:

I have <u>underlined</u> the simple subjects and bolded the simple predicates within the given sentences.

A simple subject is the most important word within the complete subject. It's a noun or a pronoun. For example, the complete subject in the 2nd sentence is <em>Many runners</em>, but the most important word within it is <em>runners</em>, which makes it the simple subject.

A simple predicate is the main part, a verb, of the complete predicate. A complete predicate includes all the descriptors besides the verb (e.g. The <u>race</u> begins in a suburb of Boston), but the simple predicate is just the verb (begins).

Use your knowledge of plot, theme, and character development to write a brief summary of “Stray.”
Phantasy [73]

In the story, "Stray" Doris finds a cold, shivering puppy that wandered onto the property of Mr. Lacey and his wife, Mamie. They had a daughter named Doris. Icicles hung three feet or more from the overhang of houses, snowdrifts gobbled up autos, and the feathered creatures were so cushioned up they looked comic. They didn't know where it came from, but they did know where it was going. Mr. Lacey wanted to take it out to the pound in the city right away but, the roads were too bad to travel, for many days. However, Doris thought that it was a good dog. Four days passed, and the puppy still didn't complain. Doris knew her parents wouldn't let her keep the puppy because her father was earning so little money. She knew that the puppy was surely going to go to the pound when the weather got better. She did talk to her parents about the dog at dinner once, but they didn't say anything as if they were ignoring her. Doris said, "She's not much trouble" and "I like her" but, Mrs. Lacey just shook her head. Eventually, the time came to bring the puppy to the pound. It was on Saturday when the dog had to leave Doris. She begged to her mom, then her dad, to let her keep the dog. Her mom just told her, "You know we can’t afford a dog, Doris. You try to act more grown-up about this." She was so tragic, everything she could do was cry herself to bed and dream about seeking for something she lost. It was nearly night when she woke up, hungry, but didn't want to face her parents or go through the basement door. When she went down to the kitchen, her parents were almost done with dinner drinking coffee. She made herself a glass of powdered milk and drank it all down. Then, as soon as she started to head out the door, Mr. Lacey asked her if she was going to feed the mutt. Doris was confused and surprised at the same time. She asked Mr. Lacey what he was talking about, and Mr. Lacey told her that the pound was the worst looking place he's ever seen. He couldn't leave an animal there. Not even an ant. Therefore, he brought it back home.
