IM TIMED!!!!! Read the excerpt from "Opening Ceremonies of the New York and Brooklyn Bridge" by Hon. Seth Low, Mayor of the City

of Brooklyn.
In the course of the construction of the Bridge a number of lives have been lost. Does it not sometimes seem as though every work of enduring value, in the material as in the moral world, must needs be purchased at the cost of human life? Let us recall with kindness at this hour the work of those who labored here faithfully unto the death, no less than of that great army of men who have wrought, year in and year out, to execute the great design. Let us give our meed of praise to-day to the humblest workman who has here done his duty well, no less than to the great engineer who told him what to do. The content of this exerpt makes it clear that A. the audience was not very grateful to those who built the bridge. B. the mayor owned the company that built the Brooklyn Bridge. C. the building of the bridge was incredibly difficult and dangerous work. D. the finished bridge was not worth the high cost of construction.

Is unprogressable a real word?
ruslelena [56]
Well if its a "real word" may depend on dialect, or where your from specifically. There are many words in Texas not really recognized as "real words" like "y'all" or many things like that. Perhaps it is a word somewhere. But I have never heard it. Remember, language is like a liquid, always shifting, and changing.

Answer:

<em>The truth doesn't cost anything, but a lie could cost everything.</em>

<em>- Unknown</em>

The wind whistled in [name]'s ears. He could hear his voice rising louder above the noise as he tried to explain his way out of yet another lie. "But, mom-" "[character's full name], you have to stop telling so many lies! Don't you regret any of this?" his mother sighed exasperatedly. "I- I'm sorry..." "Just like all those other times...!" [Name]'s mother looked him squarely in the face, her eyes faintly wettening. "It's just that - I didn't wanna get in trouble. I mean, I <em>never </em>want to get in trouble-" "And that's why you keep lying." His mother sighed again. "[Name], if you spend all your life trying to get out of trouble instead of keeping yourself from getting <em>in</em>to trouble, who knows how many lies you'll tell? It'll just keep getting worse and worse."

[Name] sighed as he walked towards the town, the mountain air somehow not making him feel any better. He really didn't want to lie- but it was such a hard habit for him to break. It seemed as if for every lie he told, three more came after it, only for him to get in trouble for something else to avoid getting punished for what he actually did- and the cycle continued. It was a never-ending cycle of lies, lies, and more lies.
