The Time Machine
by H. G. Wells (adapted excerpt)
As they made no effort to communicate with me, but simply stood round me smiling and speaking in soft cooing notes to each other, I began the conversation by pointing to the Time Machine and myself. Then, hesitating for a moment how to express time, I pointed to the sun and at once a quaintly pretty little figure in checkered purple and white followed my gesture, and then astonished me by imitating the sound of thunder.
For a moment I was staggered, though the import of his gesture was plain enough. The question had come into my mind abruptly: were these creatures fools? You may hardly understand how it took me. You see, I had always anticipated that the people of the year Eight Hundred and Two Thousand odd would be incredibly in front of us in knowledge, art, everything. Then one of them suddenly asked me a question that showed him to be on the intellectual level of one of our five-year-old children—asked me, in fact, if I had come from the sun in a thunderstorm! It let loose the judgment I had suspended upon their clothes, their frail light limbs, and fragile features. A flow of disappointment rushed across my mind and for a moment I felt that I had built the Time Machine in vain.

Read "Not by Math Alone,” by Sandra Day O’Connor and Roy Romer. In a well-organized essay, analyze the rhetorical strategies the writers use to achieve their purpose. Is their argument persuasive?
Answer:
The article "Not by Math Alone" written by Sandra Day O’Connor and Roy Romer explains how American schools are failing when talking and teaching about government and how the political system works.
First, the writers give statistics to prove that high school students do not know much about the political system and democracy and then they explain how important it is for the country to have citizens that are aware of politics and that are interested in democracy, whether their future careers are related to politics or not.
I believe their arguments are persuasive because they give statistics as proof and also because having citizens that know how their country work and how politics affects them is always a good thing.

‘Teenagers are distracted because the pressure of education and school
makes them want to find other things to do that won’t cause them stress’
Write down your opinion on this and explain why you think this way.
Answer:
Education and school can be demanding. Teenagers have to study hard to succeed in their exams and face the future. Studying can put a lot of pressure on them and cause them stress and to be distracted.
School is demanding, especially for teenagers in their final years of high school. They have to prepare themselves to enter universities or to phase real life. The multiple subjects that they take in combination with extra activities to have a better future stress teenager. To escape this pressure, they get distracted by non-demanding activities that make them feel good. For example, they like going out with friends, spending time on social media, or reading a book.
An adult might see activities as something negative since the person is not focusing enough on their future. However, they are beneficial if teenagers practice them between school obligations as a hobby. In other words, they make the teenager relaxed and ready to face school's demands. They might be negative if the teenager focuses only on activities and does not attend to his/her obligations as a student.
In conclusion, school and education put pressure on teenagers, so they get distracted by other activities to relax and be ready to give the best of themselves in school. It is alright if they look for activities that do not cause them stress if they do not take all their time.
Explanation:
In this case, we have to write an opinion essay with the topic "Teenagers are distracted because the pressure of education and school makes them want to find other things to do that won’t cause them stress."
In an opinion essay, there are three main parts, the introduction, the body, and the conclusion. First, we write the introduction, where we describe the topic and state our point of view. Then, in the second and third paragraphs, we develop the reasons that support our point of view, explaining them in detail. Finally, we write a conclusion, where we restate our point of view.

in your own words define “inalienable” and give an example
Answer:
Inalienable means that which is inseparable from another. Something that is inalienable cannot be forcefully taken. For example, "Africans are inalienable from their cultural roots".
Explanation:
That which is inalienable cannot be easily taken from the original possessor. It is a fundamental right of such a person. The American constitution mentions three of those inalienable rights. They include the rights to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. This means that these rights are fundamental to the lives of all citizens in America.
Any attempt to forcefully usurp this fundamental rights of any citizen amounts to a breach of their inalienable rights and could also warrant a judicial punishment.
