What is the mistake in these two sentences. 1.He ate four hot dog's at the picnic. 2. My soccer teams trophy was huge.

Answers

The mistake in the first one is the apostrophe. It should just be “hot dogs.” And the second on should be soccer team’s.
1. It should be ‘dogs’ not ‘dog’s’. Unsure about the second I’m not American and we don’t use soccer.

Read the passage then answer the question below:

The Ornithopter

Many people know Leonardo da Vinci today as an artist, and it is true that he was indeed a great painter and sculptor, but he was also an inventor and one of the first individuals in recorded history to draft detailed plans for a flying machine.

In order to make a living, Leonardo often depended upon wealthy individuals who would commission work from him. That means they would hire him and pay him to create specific work they wanted. In 1482, when he was 30 years old, Leonardo heard of an opportunity to work for Ludovico Sforza, the Duke of Milan. The duke, however, did not want a painter; he wanted a military engineer to help him defend the city against its enemies. This was an excellent opportunity that would pay Leonardo well, but Leonardo was a peaceful man. He considered war to be “a beastly madness.” He preferred to make things of beauty.

Leonardo made the decision that he could tolerate making weapons if the resources the duke could provide would also allow him to create things he loved. He sent a letter to the duke detailing his skills in designing and building weapons. “I will assemble catapults, mangonels, trebuchets and other instruments of wonderful efficiency…I will make an infinite number of items for attack and defense,” he wrote.

Leonardo’s letter convinced the duke of his talents, and he got the job. He set about designing the weapons that the duke desired. But Leonardo was infinitely creative, always thinking of new things, new ideas—he could not be limited to weapons alone. One idea that he had not mentioned in his application was the ornithopter. It was not a weapon of war, and it was not something that the duke had asked for, but Leonardo went ahead and designed it anyway.

Leonardo was fascinated by the idea of flight. The word “ornithopter” comes from two words meaning “bird” and “wings.” And on first inspection, his plans resembled a bird’s wings attached to a human being’s arms. He concluded that a human being’s arms were neither strong enough nor light enough to stay in the air for long. So, his design included sets of foot pedals and levers that were operated with the hands. He created detailed plans and presented them to the duke, uncertain of how the duke would react to a design for which he didn’t ask.

As it turned out, the duke was very impressed with the ornithopter, but it wasn’t Leonardo’s innovation that excited him. He immediately thought of the ways this machine could be used in war. If a spy could fly over the enemy’s camp, imagine what information he could gather! This was not what Leonardo had intended for his beautiful flying machine.

But how Leonardo felt about war turned out not to matter in the end. His ornithopter was never built—along with his designs for tanks, parachutes, diving suits, machine guns, and even robots that he created for the duke. The ideas of Leonardo da Vinci were centuries ahead of the technology needed to make them.

He concluded that a human being's arms were neither strong enough nor light enough to stay in the air for long. So, his design included foot pedals and levers that were operated with the hands.

Answers

Answer:

Before arriving to the United States, Gurung's life was always in danger: "Many of us were tortured and imprisoned. We had no choice but to flee to Nepal to save our lives".

He was from Bhutan but he had to go to Nepali's refugee camps. After twenty years, he decided to move to the United States. In the US, he kept struggling, he couldn't find a job and he didn't speak the language: "But here in the United States, my community continues to struggle. We arrived in the U.S. when the economy was at its lowest point, so we struggle to find jobs. Many of us do not speak English, and lack of education makes it even more difficult for us to learn (...)".

However, Gurung explains that he now helps other refugees to have a successful transition between the place where they come from and the United States and he's very happy about it and about his family.

Explanation:

To complete this exercise, you have to read a text about what Til Gurung said in a Refugee Transitions talk, and then summarize what Gurung's life was like before and after arriving in the United States. In his talk, he explains a little bit about his life and how Refugee Transitions is filling a need in his community.

Nights and Dragons— From the memoir of author Abigail Prynne I could have given up, but I thought about my grandmother.

There were many facts that hinted that dragons may not be fictional. I noticed that cultures across the world all described dragons in similar ways.

Dragons are included along with eleven real animals. I began to believe it was a real possibility that all of these people were talking about a creature that actually existed. The text discusses the Chinese calendar by writing, "Dragons are included along with eleven real animals." What is the main idea of the passage?

Answer:

The main idea of the text is that dragons may have existed in real life and that science is not enough to prove it or not.

Explanation:

The text shows that although science determines that dragons did not exist, many ancient cultures describe this animal together with the animals we know in real life. Furthermore, these cultures are different from each other, many of them show no similarities. Which proves that dragons may have been real animals, seen by ancient societies, but now extinct, or not.

Answer: 3

Explanation:

Ed     |            |
