TECH (Teenager Elder Computer Help) is an association located in Oregon that takes teenagers from volunteers to nursing homes to help seniors use computers and smartphones, in addition to teaching them how to use emails, social media and anything else. that can be found on the internet. This activity is done because the elderly did not have access to this type of technology when they were younger and today they have difficulties to adapt themselves to it, which limits even their communication with the family, since the messaging applications are the easiest and most common way to communicate. This initiative started in 2011, but has survived over the years and is expected to spread across the country.
1. Reread paragraph 13 of "You Are the Electric Boogaloo". What do you think the author means by
asking these questions? What is he trying to say about the importance of failure?
Find
ago from either text that you found especially important. Quote the passage and tell
Answer:
With the questions in paragraph 13, the author means that there is no point in wasting time wondering what would have happened if a particular failed situation in the past had been experienced differently, it is better to use that time to accept failure and think in the next steps that will be taken towards the goal that each one has.
Explanation:
"You Are the Electric Boogaloo" features a letter from the author for the teen version of himself. In this letter he wishes to send a message to his past self about a very shameful occasion that he lived.
The author starts by showing what he likes about his teen version, until he comments when he went to participate in a break contest and was unable to spin on the floor because the rouoa he was wearing was not appropriate. Instead of spinning efficiently, the author injured his back, writhed in pain and was the subject of laughter in the audience.
The author shows how it demotivated and filled him with shame, besides, he spent a lot of time thinking "what if I had won", "what if a talent scout had found me?", "What if I had become famous? " among others.
The letter's author wants to show that these questions are terrible and that he shouldn't spend time thinking about it. But you must take advantage of failure as an experience and a story to tell in the future. What he must do is turn it around and think about the next steps in his career.

Read this excerpt from "An Address Delivered to the Oxford School of Science and Art at the Distribution of Prizes."
Ladies and Gentlemen,
You will not expect me, in complying with the custom which requires your Chairman to address a few words to you before distributing the prizes, to give you instruction about Art or Science. One who was educated, as I was, under the old system, can hardly see without a pang the improvement that has been made in education since his time. In a public school, in my day, you learned nothing of Science, Art, or Music. Having received nothing, I have nothing to give. Fortunately, the only thing of importance to be said this evening can be said without technical knowledge of any kind. The School of Art needs better accommodation.

If you could live anywhere, where would it be?
Answer: Canada
Explanation:
If I can choose, I would always choose Canada as my favorite place to be. I would live there because I see myself there.
I am amazed by nature in it, waterfalls, trees, mountains, and woods. I am also a person who likes cold weather and in Canada, it is often snowy and cold. Another thing that I like about it is the language. English is also spoken in Canada and it would be the perfect fit for me. I was always amazed by snow in the woods and that white blanket on the top of every green tree. Every landscape in Canada would take my breath away. There are also many interesting animals there such as Grizzly Bear, Marmot, Moose, Cougar, and more.
I would rather live in France

Rewrite the following sentence correctly using colons and/or semicolons.

Answer: I ordered many things at the restaurant: a salad, chicken pesto, and tiramisu.
Explanation:
A colon is a punctuation mark that has two parallel dots and it is used when people are trying to tell the readers what they meant. In this case, the writer is telling us that he ordered many things in the restaurany, and after the colon : he wrote on what things he was thinking, those are chicken pesto, a salad, and tiramisu.
The colon is used to introduce the items to readers. That can be a series of items or something similar.
