Write a story illustrating the saying better late than never​

English

Tpy6a [65]3 years ago

Answer:

I found this cute story

Ed Whitlock, an 85-year-old Canadian engineer, set a new 42.195km world record in the 85-90 year old category at the last Toronto Marathon: his final time was 3 hours and 56 minutes, over half an hour shorter than the previous record. At the end of the race the Canadian did not even appear too tired, only regret not having taken 6 minutes less.

"I was aiming for 3 hours and 50, but after halfway through the race I realized it was too difficult", this was his statement, while he complained with a smile of "pain in the legs". Those legs that allowed him to reach an enviable time by runners of all ages in the 2004 Toronto Marathon, which he finished in under 3 hours - exactly, 2 hours, 54 minutes and 49 seconds - at just 73 years old!

And he started running at 40, an age that often coincides with the retirement of professional runners, who instead for him, thanks to so much tenacity and willpower, marked the starting point to crush record after record. When asked what he will do when he grows up, he replies: "Nobody knows when the time for the last race will come, but I will continue to run as long as I can."

What is the percent by mass of 5 g of sodium chloride mixed with 80 g of water
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

mass of solute (m1) = 5.0 g NaCl

mass of solvent (m2 ) = 80.0 g H2O

T% = ( m1 / m1 + m2 ) * 100

T% = ( 5.0 / 5.0 + 80.0 ) * 100

T% = ( 5.0 / 85.0 ) * 100

T% = 0.0588 * 100

T = 5.88%

Do you think a longer school calendar is a good idea? Why or why not? What would be pros and cons, if implemented?
Anvisha [2.4K]
I do not believe a longer school calendar is a good idea for a few reasons. One reason is that I believe kids need to have time to be kids and have some time off of school. Also, students wouldn’t tire out as easily with the ongoing overload of school. A con can be that childcare could be difficult to find when they are not in school and also that some kids do better with consistency and no break.
