Owen reveals his concern about his time commitments.

At the beginning of the conversation it seems as though Owen is uninterested in attending practice. His question to his dad starts "So, I guess" which reveals a lack of interest on his part. However, we learn the real reason of his hesitation regarding hockey practice at the end of the conversation. He tells his dad "I'm worried I can't manage everything." This shows that he seems overwhelmed with his school work and hockey. His time commitments are a concern for him.

5. ‘“It is painfully clear this slaughter was perpetrated by a force that holds zero regard for the value of life.”’ (Paragraph
alexdok [17]

Answer and Explanation

This statement comes from the satiric article titled “Natural Selection Kills 38 Quadrillion Organisms In Bloodiest Day Yet”.

The article is a satire on how violent and ruthless natural selection can be. Natural Selection is an essential part of life. It is pivotal for evolution and it is the force that separates successful adaptations from those which are not. Natural selection, in the form of the struggle between prey and predator, is also essential to ensure there is a biomass equilibrium. This equilibrium is essential for a healthy ecosystem, and therefore to the perpetuation of life over our planet.

The irony in the statement “It is painfully clear this slaughter was perpetrated by a force that holds zero regard for the value of life” comes from a deep understanding of natural selection as an essential force of nature, as an indispensable part of life. Natural selection implies death, and therefore death is a fundamental part of life. Therefore, stating that “this force holds zero regard for the value of life” becomes an ironic comment on the paradoxical and yet indispensable relationship between death and life.

Proofread the following article and correct its five subject-verb disagreements. 'This new technology is for everyone and will r
Marianna [84]

A subject-verb agreement error occurs when the number (whether or not something is singular or plural) of the subject does not “agree” with the number of the verb.  For instance, if a subject is singular, the verb should be singular as well, and this is known as “agreeing.”  If the subject is singular, but the verb is plural, then this is known as a subject-verb agreement error (or subject-verb disagreement).  Below, the agreement errors have been corrected to the proper number and appear in bold. 


"This new technology is for everyone and will revolutionize the lives of millions of ordinary commuters. Cheaper than concrete or tarmac but just as durable, the new cycling paths absorb light and re-emit it when they sense that it is required. They're one hundred percent environmentally-friendly. The inventor, however, is less forthcoming when our conversation turns to how the product actually works. Despite a barrage of questions, the only thing he will admit to is that the key to this techno-wonder is a combination of recycled tires (what else?) and a specially formulated light-emitting powder that charges during the day and glows at night."
