Answer:
This summary needs to be revise because it lacks transition words to connect the ideas.
Explanation:
The summary we are analyzing here is about the story "The Beginnings of of the Maasai," which explains the origins of the Maasai culture and the people's relationship with Enkai, their god. The Maasai are a semi-nomadic indigenous group settled in Tanzania and Kenya.
The problem with the summary is that is lacks transition words. As their name suggests, transition words are used to transition from one idea or sentence to the next. Examples are: so, then, after that, because of that, in addition, etc. Let's revise the summary and add a few transition words to see how much better it sounds and how much more smoothly the ideas flow:
"As a result of a volcanic eruption, Enkai and the cattle were thrown inot the sky. Enkai wanted to save his cattle, so he grew a tree that bridged the sky and the earth. Thus, the cattle walked down the tree to Neiterkob. Then, Neiterkob and the Maasai tribe took over caring for the cattle."
Answer:
The summary lacks transitions that connect ideas.
Draw parallels between David McCullough Jr's address to the students of Wellesley HIgh School and the message of Miley Cyrus' song "The Climb" AND Five for Fighting's "100 Years" . Use text evidence from all three works in your answer using DIRECT CITATIONS.
Answer and Explanation:
When David McCullough Jr states in his speech "you are not special" he is showing his audience how adulthood will not treat them with affection, as the audience's family does to each of them. David McCullough Jr meant that although the public has been pampered, protected and treated as if they were different and special, by their families, they are just ordinary people and adulthood will not treat them special but will treat them with difficulties and challenges that will often not be conquered.
The way David McCullough Jr describes the difficulties of adult life can be associated with the lines of the song "The Climb" sung by Miley Cyrus that say "There's always gonna be another mountain/I'm always gonna wanna make it move/Always gonna make it move be an uphill battle/Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose." While this sounds demotivating, David McCullough Jr shows that this is what will, in fact, teach the public how to live, create experiences and allow them to recognize who they truly are, understand their limits and realize that they are not special, must fight to survive .
The way in which David McCullough Jr reinforces that adolescence is a phase of extreme protection can be associated with the following lines of the song "100 Years" sung by "Five for Fighting:" Fifteen, there's still time for you/Time to buy and time to lose yourself." Through these lines, we can see that David McCullough Jr reinforces the idea that adulthood is different from adolescence, as a matter of time. In adulthood, time is scarce and everything has to be resolved quickly, there is no more time to play or lose yourself, as time is essential for more serious difficulties to be resolved.
(from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, by Robert Louis Stevenson)
Read the passage carefully and then answer the question.
Two doors from one corner, on the left hand going east the line was broken by the entry of a court; and just at that point a certain sinister block of building thrust forward its gable on the street. It was two storeys high; showed no window, nothing but a door on the lower storey and a blind forehead of discoloured wall on the upper; and bore in every feature, the marks of prolonged and sordid negligence. The door, which was equipped with neither bell nor knocker, was blistered and distained. Tramps slouched into the recess and struck matches on the panels; children kept shop upon the steps; the schoolboy had tried his knife on the mouldings; and for close on a generation, no one had appeared to drive away these random visitors or to repair their ravages.
Mr. Enfield and the lawyer were on the other side of the by-street; but when they came abreast of the entry, the former lifted up his cane and pointed.
"Did you ever remark that door?" he asked; and when his companion had replied in the affirmative. "It is connected in my mind," added he, "with a very odd story."
"Indeed?" said Mr. Utterson, with a slight change of voice, "and what was that?"

Being street smart is more important then being book smart.
Answer:
street smart means you have situational awareness. You can assess the environment you are in, who is in it, and what the available angles are. Being on the street, or in the trenches, or whatever low to the ground metaphor you prefer, requires you to learn to trust your judgment about people and what matters. This skill, regardless of where you develop it, is of great value everywhere in life regardless of how far from the streets you are. Most important perhaps, being street smart comes from experience. It means you’ve learned how to take what has happened to you, good or bad, think about it, and learn to improve from it. The prime distinction between street smarts and book smarts is who is at the centre of the knowledge. On the street, it’s you. In a book, it’s you trying to absorb someone else take on the world, and however amazing the writer is, you are at best one degree removed from the experience. Street smarts mean you’ve put yourself at risk and survived. Or thrived. Or have scars. You’ve been tested and have a bank of courage to depend on when you are tested again. Being street smart can lead to book smarts as the street smart sense what works and what doesn’t, and adapt accordingly.

In April 2010, an oil rig exploded in the Gulf of Mexico. Millions of gallons of oil leaked into the Gulf, devastating
wildlife. Scientists tried to clean up the spill in a variety of ways. One approach involved the use of oil-eating
bacteria. However, scientists were divided on its effectiveness. Some maintained that the bacteria were "fairly
fast" in cleaning the spill. Officials reported that the Gulf would make a full recovery by 2012. Yet Samantha Joye,
a marine scientist, disagreed. She conducted a study of the sea floor. She found that the bacteria had cleaned
only 10 percent of the oil. She reported that the Gulf would take many years to recover.
