<span>The five spiritual faculties are five fundamental agents upon which you may develop your state of spirituality, including belief, persevering effort, mindfulness, concentration, and wisdom. The five powers are the five mental forces that arise from the above five spiritual faculties: powers of belief, persevering effort, mindfulness, concentration, and wisdom. In the process of spiritual training, you should develop all five faculties because they are mutually incorporated with one another. For instance, if you have a strong belief in what you are doing, you are then able to put all your efforts into doing it so that you may reach the end goal. In addition, when your effort is directed in the principle of mindfulness, you may generate for yourself an inner source of powerful concentration and wisdom. All Buddhist schools of practice must always consist of these five faculties and their five corresponding powers. The five spiritual faculties differ from the five physical organs (eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and body.)</span>
Read the summary of the section of "The Beginnings of the Maasai,” where the volcanic eruption and its results are described.
As a result of a volcanic eruption, Enkai and the cattle were thrown into the sky. Enkai wanted to save his cattle. He grew a tree that bridged the sky and the earth. The cattle walked down the tree to Neiterkob. Neiterkob and the Maasai tribe took over caring for the cattle.
Why does the summary need to be revised?
The summary incorrectly restates the central idea.
The summary includes too many minor details.
The summary lacks transitions that connect ideas.
The summary is missing important words and phrases.
Answer:
The summary lacks transitions that connect ideas.
Explanation:
From the excerpt of "The Beginnings of the Masai", the narrator first begins to talk about a volcanic eruption and how Enkai and the cattle were thrown into the sky and how Enkai tried to save his cattle by growing a tree that bridged the sky and the earth.
However, the narrator failed to make use of transitions that would connect his ideas which made his summary seem amateurish.
Transitions are words that are used to link ideas in a sentence. An example of transition words are <em>However, But, Therefore, As a result of, </em>etc.
Climate, cling, timid, disturb,decay, expose, perform, custom, ancient, remote
