I'm not into competitive sport. I'll never break a world record, and I'm sure I'll never win a prize for sport. In fact, I usually come last in races and if I'm in a team, we always lose the match. I don't understand people who need to come first. I've even seen men cry when the opposing team scores a goal! I like being healthy and keeping fit. But I don't need to beat my opponent - I just need to enjoy the game.

Explanation:

The task here is to put the lines in the correct order. The endings and the beginnings of lines are written in bold red letters. When we connect the ending of one line and the beginning of another, words written in red letters should form a phrase that makes sense, e.g. break + a world record, keeping + fit. This is how you solve these questions.

Through my binoculars, I viewed a group of wild animals in action. A pride of lions was sleeping when a small, yellow bus pulled up beside
them. Tourists on a safari were packed into the bus like sardines in a can, Armed with cameras, they invaded the lions' territory, hoping to
capture the perfect photograph. The crowd leaned out the windows, hooting and hollering, until the lions awoke. When the lions moved away,
the bus rolled after them, relentlessly stalking the pride. One of the lions turned and roared to protect the young. This was greeted with cheers
and a celebratory honk of the bus horn. The curious visitors observed the lions routine for an hour before moving on Leaving a cloud of dust
the bus headed away, taking the wild animals off to disturb someone else's home.

Using sports as subject matter, write a sentence that has an introduction and an interruption in addition to the main part?

Answers

Answer:

The practice of sports should be done to stimulate benefits in the body and therefore it should, with some exceptions, be practiced frequently and with an intensity that gradually increases.

Explanation:

The introduction of the sentence presents the reason why the practice of sports should be encouraged in an individual's life. Right after the introduction, an interruption is made through the "with some exceptions" part, which is separated from the main part of the sentence by commas.

The interruption is a sentence, or a word, that interrupts the flow of thought that the sentence was establishing. In the case of the question above, the interruption shows that there are exceptions to the duty to exercise frequently.

Action verb: go.

Explanation:

 The so-called 'linking verbs' or 'copular verbs' are those that link the subject with additional information about it. They do not express action.

An 'action verb' explains what the subject of the sentence is doing or has done.

Linking verbs have different functions than action verbs. Action verbs are modified by adverbs, and linking verbs are often followed by adjectives.

Action Verb: Go, Linking Verb: Exit

What characteristic of Neoclassical literature?

Order, correctness, and structure are characteristics of neoclassical literature. The Neoclassical thinkers saw human nature as fundamentally faulty, which was in stark contrast to Renaissance beliefs that man was fundamentally good.

That was directly inspired by the classical period, which coincided with and reflected the developments in philosophy and other areas of the Age of Enlightenment.
