Hey get over here!” my brother screeched to me. It was last January and we were slipping and sliding on the ice
by my school. My school has this big field that gets really swampy and mushy in the summer but in the winter it’s like an
ice rink. I zipped over to my brother and crashed into him with a SMACK.
My brother was too focused on the ice to notice. He was pointing down at a green rectangle frozen in the ice.
“That’s money!” I screamed. We jumped, pounded, chipped on that ice until our toes were like frozen popsicles. When
we got it out it was mushy and soggy but it still worked. At the store we got a Hershey bar and a bunch of mini peanut
butter cups. We raced back to the field and looked all day. There’s nothing better than free money!
BUt then we found out it belonged to a older man who had just broke his leg so we felt guilty.
<u>Situations that are contrary to fact</u>, the mood is the conditional: third type. Example: If she<u> had got up</u> early, she <u>would not have missed </u>the bus. This example illustrates an imaginary situation; it did not happen. What truly happened was that the woman got up late and missed the bus. This was the fact. The structure is : the condition introduced by "if" carries the Past Perfect and the imaginary result carries would + perfect infinitive.
<u>Conditions under which a situation might occur, </u>the mood is the conditional: second type. Example: If she <u>bought</u> an alarm clock, she <u>would get up</u> on time. This statement reflects a possible solution to a problem; it is a speculative solution. She does not have an alarm clock, yet if she <em>bought</em> one . This is the subjunctive mood . What would the result be? She <u>would get up</u> on time. This is the conditional mood , second type.
Edwards claims that nonbelievers are akin to spiders in Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God because <u>spiders are powerless should a rock fall on them.</u>
What Edwards is trying to say is that anything you do couldn't save you from hell if you do not have faith in God, because your actions would be as fragile as a spider's web trying to hold the weight of a rock that falls into it. Those actions, as the spider's web, would have no influence, and the spider would fall in hell.
because they educate children for a better future yet they still get fairly low pay.
