Writing Task: After reading "Do We Really Need Daylight Saving Time?", write an essay in which you persuade your reader whether switching from standard time to daylight savings time is a good idea. Support your opinion with evidence from the text.

Answers

Daylight saving time consists of a practice that allows watches, and therefore times, to be advanced by one hour during spring and summer, every year.

One of the main benefits of switching from standard to daylight savings time is optimization and energy savings across the country. Although, many people believe that this economy does not exist, we can confirm through the article "Do We Really Need Daylight Saving Time?" that "A study by the U.S. Department of Transportation showed that the country’s electricity usage is cut by 1 percent each day because of daylight saving time." As spring and summer last six months, saving 1% of energy per day promotes great savings when using daylight savings time.

This energy saving promotes a reduction in pollution, since less burning of fossil fuels is necessary to supply a country's energy needs. In addition, the daylight Saving Time allows for a better use of the day, allowing people to dedicate themselves to some daytime activity with more time available. In this regard, the article states that "[...] people could work longer, and when work was done it was still bright enough to run errands and stimulate the economy. The added daylight also meant more exposure to vitamin D and the added time for people to exercise outdoors. "

Accordingly, we can conclude that the change from standard time to daylight saving time is beneficial even with the controversial energy savings that this change promotes, since daylight saving time allows better use of the daytime period.

The first of these two passages from stories by Jack London is about a man at sea, heading west. The second is about a miner who has discovered a rich vein of gold he names Mr. Pocket.,end italics,



For seven weeks the Mary Rogers had been between 50 degrees south in the Atlantic and 50 degrees south in the Pacific, which meant that for seven weeks she had been struggling to round Cape Horn. . . . For seven weeks she had wrestled with the Cape Horn graybeards, and in return been buffeted and smashed by them. She was a wooden ship, and her ceaseless straining had opened her seams, so that twice a day the watch took its turn at the pumps.

The Mary Rogers was strained, the crew was strained, and big Dan Cullen, master, was likewise strained. Perhaps he was strained most of all, for upon him rested the responsibility of that titanic struggle. He slept most of the time in his clothes, though he rarely slept. He haunted the deck at night, a great, burly, robust ghost, black with the sunburn of thirty years of sea and hairy as an orang-outang. He, in turn, was haunted by one thought of action, a sailing direction for the Horn: Whatever you do, make westing! make westing!



(from "Make Westing" by Jack London)





Nightfall found him by the edge of the stream his eyes wrestling with the gathering darkness over the washing of a five-dollar pan.

"Wisht I had an electric light to go on working," he said.

He found sleep difficult that night. Many times he composed himself and closed his eyes for slumber to overtake him; but his blood pounded with too strong desire, and as many times his eyes opened and he murmured wearily, "Wisht it was sun-up."

Sleep came to him in the end, but his eyes were open with the first paling of the stars, and the gray of dawn caught him with breakfast finished and climbing the hillside in the direction of the secret abiding-place of Mr. Pocket.

Answers

Answer: Dancers from the movie Rize does continue to spread their inspirational message of hope to Los Angeles' South Central youth

Explanation:

Subject-verb agreement errors usually happen the plural form of a verb is used when the singular form is required for the subject or when the singular form of the verb is used in a situation that needs the plural form to be used. In such case, the subject is said to disagree with the verb resulting in a subject-verb agreement error.

The sentence in the question should be rewritten as "Dancers from the movie Rize does continue to spread their inspirational message of hope to Los Angeles' South Central youth" in order to correct the subject-verb agreement.

Answers

Passive to active means that you have to turn the sentence into a happening state. So you will have to remove the supporting past tense words like was/were.

1. Another car almost hit it

2. The freeway shows other animals

3. You expect me to believe that a zebra delayed you?

4. The radio is talking about it.
