Answer:

Bacon comes from bak-, the same root as our word back. It's the back meat of a pig. Bake has as its root an old word meaning "warm." Bacon can be baked and it's delicious. It can also be fried, obviously.

Cookie actually comes from a word meaning cake (which bacon is not), although cake comes from the Latin word for cooking. However, that word generically referred to preparing food so baking would at that time have fallen under the usage of the word cook. Cookies can be fried and fried cookies are delicious, although baking is more common.

Travka [436]

Answer:

Where did my nose go, and how can I get it back?

Explanation:

All of the other options are illogical

  1. O If I find my nose, can my doctor put it back on? → That's scientifically not possible
  2. Whom can I sue, and how much money can I get? → Nobody is going to be sued
  3. Can I buy a nose on the Internet? → No one would buy someone else's nose and that's illegal
  4. What am I going to do with all my nose rings? → You don't have a nose
  5. What will people say? → This could be a possible option but in the end you would be more concerned about where it went
  6. O How am I going to smell the roses?  → Get your nose back and then think about it

Adam is taking a test in PE. The prompt for one question states:
Liula [17]
Hey there! :D

I think the most important thing to remember here is the structure of a thesis statement. 

Main idea- point- point- point. Each point represents like a paragraph of details. 

Also, the question stated that it was what you thought was the best sport, and explain the reasons. 

I wouldn't say "A". It doesn't have points. It's more of an opinion. It's better than any other sport. (superior) It's a statement, more than a thesis. 

"B" and "D" aren't about sports. A specific one was never mentioned. 

"C" is the best answer. The prompt asked what you thought was the best sport. If he said 'personally' or 'I think' that's fine. Plus, he had three good points in his thesis. Main idea: I think football is the best sport ever. Points: 'it is fun' 'you work as a team' and 'there's nothing more exciting than scoring the winning goal.' 

I hope this helps!

Nady [450]

Answer:

Critics say Microsoft's incredible two-decade run at the top of the computer industry has less to do with innovation than it does with bully tactics. But new research from Harvard Business School professors Marco Iansiti and Alan MacCormack suggests a different reason: the company's ability to spot technological trends and exploit key software technologies.

Perhaps no technology company outside of IBM has been able to keep on top of the industry as much as Microsoft. What's more, Bill Gates & Co. have achieved this success during times of incredible technological transformation, usually just the period when titans are vulnerable to being knocked off by disruptive technologies.
