Answer: The best summary of this excerpt is B. Benjamin Franklin, born in Boston in 1706, was the youngest of his father’s seventeen children. He stopped going to school at age ten, and soon after started apprenticing for his brother James, a printer, who published the “New England Courant.” Franklin became a writer and editor for the paper, but left Boston for Philadelphia in 1723 after an argument with James.

Explanation: Option B. is the best summary of the excerpt because it includes all the information that can be considered important, such as where was Benjamin Franklin born, when did he stop going to school and why did he leave Boston. Moreover, based on the excerpt provided, this option omits details and presents accurate facts without repeating the words included in the excerpt.

Everyone help me please!!!!

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

1. Write sentences about the future using will/won't.

(1) Our teacher will ride a bike to school tomorrow.

(2) I will fly in a plane one day.

(3) My gran won't drive a van at the weekend.

(4) My friends and I will catch a bus soon.

(5) I won't sail on a boat next year.

2. Read the Top Gear article. Complete each space with 'm, is, are or will/won't.

I'm staying in this evening because my favourite programme is on TV at 8 p.m. Tonight's Top Gear programme 1) is showing a very unusual race. The TV presenters 2) are racing two amazing, expensive vehicles: a Bugatti Veyron, which costs about £880,000, and a Eurofighter Typhoon plane, wich costs £67 million! The car will drive 1.6 kilometers along an airport runway, and then it will turn round and race back. The plane 3) will fly 1.6 kilometres straigh up into the sky and then it 4) will turn around and race back down to Earth!

At top speed, the Veyron will reach about 400 kilometres per hour. The Typhoon 5) will travel at about 2400 kilometres per hour! Which vehicle will win? Nobody knows, but it definitely 6) won't be boring! I 7) 'm looking forward to it!

3. Write one to four words to complete the sentences about the article.

I can't see the sentences that you have to complete.

4. Write about what car/transport you will have when you're older. Think about these things:

What type of car or transport will you have?
What colour will it be?
How much will it cost?

Will your parents/friends like it?

When I'm older I will have a Jeep (Wrangler). It will be colour black, because I like how it shines in black. Right now it costs about £21,921 but I think it'll be more expensive when I buy it. Everyone will like it!
