Tonya decided that she would finally face her fears today. No day is better than another, she told herself as she examined herse

lf in the dressing mirror. Certainly not!
She was going to look her best today—the black top with red borders and the boot-cut jeans would boost her confidence. Today, she would wear the red sandals and walk with her head held high. The mirror reflected a tall, athletic, and glowing young woman—ready to conquer the universe.Tonya thought hard about the words she was going to say to Aish when she heard her call out her name.

"Tooonyaaaa! Are you ready yet?" Aish and her famous, loud voice had woken up the neighborhood for the morning. "Geez Louise! Could you hurry up, pleeeeease?"

"Coming!" Tonya replied and appeared downstairs with her backpack in a matter of moments. She gave Aish a long, hard look. She thought that even in plain, short, overalls and ponytails, petite Aish looked stunning. "Okay, let's go," Tonya uttered, looking flustered.

"Black is definitely not your color, doll!" Aish said, chewing gum loudly. "Ugh, those red sandals! What were you thinking? Sam will definitely run away after seeing you!"

"Aish, do you think that maybe you could be a little less critical with your remarks?" Tonya finally said what had been on her mind for a long time. "I value your opinion and don’t appreciate you always putting me down."

Select the correct answer.
Which statement describes how Aish highlights Tonya's meek nature?
A.
Tonya makes Aish late for school, while Aish is always punctual.
B.
Aish wears stylish overalls, while Tonya wears childish sandals.
C.
Aish speaks her mind, while Tonya chooses her words carefully.
D.
Tonya is ready to conquer the universe, while Aish is carefree.
E.
Aish takes less time to choose her outfit compared to Tonya.

Answer:

Love Thy Garden

Most of us associate gardening with our <u>grandparents</u>, with <u>people recovering </u>from an illness, or <u>with older folks</u> gently tending to rows of hydrangeas and tomatoes. <u>Of course,</u> it is not something <u>young </u>people do, right? <u>However</u>, an increasing number of young adults and kids are getting into small-scale farming or gardening. <u>This happens because</u> schools across the country have initiated programs that involve working <u>not only in gardens but also in small community farms.</u> <u>For example,</u> The Edible Schoolyard Project, <u>which was created in 2005 by Alice waters,</u> makes farming fun for young people. <u>In the beginning,</u> Alice wanted to transform a vacant lot into an edible kitchen in her neighborhood school. <u>After 2005</u>, the project blossomed into a nationwide campaign to involve kids in the food-growing and production process. The program lets school kids of varying ages grow <u>their </u>fruits and vegetables. <u>Then</u>, it teaches them interesting and simple recipes. <u>Can you imagine the joy kids experience in every stage when growing their food? First</u>, they plant the seed. <u>Then</u>, they watch the plant grow <u>as </u>they take care of it. <u>Finally</u>, they pick the fruits and eat them. <u>Besides</u>, farming has other benefits<u>:</u> it relieves stress and it helps kids stay fit and connect with the community. Gardening or farming can <u>also </u>be fun for adults and teenagers. <u>Thus</u>, people of all ages can enjoy it.

Explanation

  • Grandparents: unification of the concept grandpas and grandmas to get a shorter sentence.
  • Sentence 1: Since the first three sentences are closely related, the text flows better by linking them. The repetition of the preposition "with" gives the text a poetical aspect.
  • people recovering from an illness/with older folks gently tending to rows of hydrangeas and tomatoes: omission of the expressions "who are"/"We have seen" to make the sentence shorter.
  • Of course: to emphasize the claim.
  • Young people instead of younger because there is not a comparison between two elements in the same sentence.
  • It is not instead of it isn´t since it should be formal as it may be an academic text.
  • However: connector to show an opposition between two ideas.
  • This happens because: phrase to link the cause and the effect.
  • not only in gardens but also in small community farms: not only but also to show addition.
  • For example: to introduce an instance of the previous idea.
  • , which was created in 2005 by Alice waters, : use of a relative clause to characterize the previous pronoun.
  • In the beginning/ After 2005: connectors to show the before and after of the project.
  • neighborhood school instead of a school in her neighborhood to make the sentence less complex.
  • The omission of "own" because it is redundant.
  • Then: connector of time to show that the idea follows the food-growing process.
  • as: to show simoultaneous ideas
  • Can you imagine the joy kids experience in every stage when growing their food?: use of a question to invite the reader to think and make him/her feel part of the text.
  • First/then/finally: connectors to show the chronological order of processes.
  • Besides: to add a new idea
  • use of colon: to introduce a list of equal elements
  • also: to show the idea of addition, inclusion
  • Thus: connector to show a consequence of the previous statement
