Nature is a cycle. As a botanist, I make observations about this cycle every day. Plants and animals grow, die, decay, and then

return to the earth so that other things can grow. Think about the ground in the forest. Leaves and branches may fall to the ground, but they do not pile up endlessly. Eventually, the organic materials are broken down and go back into the soil. This is called decomposition, and it happens every day. When someone controls the decomposition of organic material, they are composting. Lucas Land, in his “Ode to Compost,” sings that compost is “lifeless leftovers lingering in the grave.” Lettuce, banana peels, bread crust, and coffee rinds all rot together in a lovely, nutrient-rich, organic soup. This soup then feeds other plants. “I put compost on my garden every three months,” says Beth Barley, a lifelong farmer.

Which always happens during active reading?
Mashutka [201]

What always happens during active reading is A. The reader is engaged with and thinking about a text.

The definition of <em>active reading is reading something with attention, engagement, and determination to understand it.</em> When the reader engages critically with the content, asking himself or herself assessment questions during his or her reading, writing down key-words and pondering about the content, he or she is reading actively. <em>It consists of a comprehension technique that necessarily depends on the reader's engagement with the text.</em> Therefore, the correct answer is A.

The correct answer couldn't be <em>B. The reader is reading a piece of literature aloud.</em> Reading aloud is <em>one of the techniques used in active reading, but it isn't necessary and it doesn't always happen during active reading.</em> Some people use this technique in order to focus better. Some people prefer reading silently, but use other techniques to engage with the reading. So, the correct answer couldn't be B.

The correct answer couldn't be <em>C. The reader is thinking about an author's other works</em>. Collecting research information and data from an author's other works<em> can help the reader engage and have more ideas about the text he or she is reading, but it is not something necessary to read actively,</em> therefore, it doesn't happen always during active reading. Thus, the correct answer couldn't be C.

The correct answer couldn't be <em>D. The reader is summarizing a text. Summarizing a text is just another technique</em> used to engage with the text. There are <em>many different techniques used to read actively</em>, and summarizing is one of them. Not everybody uses the same techniques because everyone's learning process is different. T<em>hey don't have to use the same techniques, as long as they engage and read critically in order to understand the content</em> of what they are reading. Hence, the correct answer couldn't be D.

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

The author means that Men who waste their opportunities, then grow mopey

Explanation:

The question is not complete since it does not provide the necessary information to answer it. Here is the information:

A) Men who wish for fame, but end up in infamy.

B) Men who strive for success, then get distracted.

C) Men who waste their opportunities, then grow mopey

D) Men who take advantage of opportunities, then grow content

This excerpt describes men who have had chances in life as well and plenty of abilities to do great with their days, but as the moments are not fully seized, later life as years pass by, they become sad as they look at the past and notice all the precious time that they let go and that will never come back, as well as the few good moments that will remain as a constant of the lost plenty of youth.

"School uniforms are beneficial because they will curb bullying and reduce monetary burdens." Considering the student's audience
fgiga [73]

Answer:

A relevant and engaging example would be a chart that compares the incidence of bullying in schools that use uniforms and schools that do not use uniforms.

Explanation:

A graph could show how the incidence of bullying cases in schools that use uniforms is less than in schools that do not use uniforms. This example would be relevant and engaging because it would be able to show that many students who do not fit into standards considered "cool" and therefore become displaced and possible victims of bullying, would be protected with the use of uniforms, in addition to being easier for those students to fit in and make friends.
