Read the excerpt from "Elevator Systems of the Eiffel Tower, 1889" by Robert M. Vogel.
The first complete elevator machine in the United States, constructed in 1855, was a complex and inefficient contrivance built around an oscillating-cylinder steam engine. The advantages of an elevator system independent of the mill drive quickly became apparent, and by 1860 improved steam elevator machines were being produced in some quantity, but almost exclusively for freight service. It is not clear when the first elevator was installed explicitly for passenger service, but it was probably in 1857, when Otis placed one in a store on Broadway at Broome Street in New York.
In the decade following the Civil War, tall buildings had just begun to emerge; and, although the skylines of the world’s great cities were still dominated by church spires, there was increasing activity in the development of elevator apparatus adapted to the transportation of people as well as of merchandise. Operators of hotels and stores gradually became aware of the commercial advantages to be gained by elevating their patrons even one or two floors above the ground, by machinery. The steam engine formed the foundation of the early elevator industry, but as building heights increased it was gradually replaced by hydraulic, and ultimately by electrical, systems.
According to this excerpt, what was an underlying cause of increased steam elevator production?
construction of tall buildings
the need to move supplies in mills
an elevator in a store on Broadway
commercial advantages

How is writing a blog different from academic writing? Select three answer options. A blog is written in third-person point of view. A blog can include informal language. A blog uses formal language and structure. A blog can be written in first-person point of view. A blog is written with an objective viewpoint. A blog includes personal and emotional details.
Answer:
A blog can include informal language.
A blog can be written in first-person point of view.
A blog includes personal and emotional details.
Explanation:
Academic writing is a paper where the writer or author presents his/her research papers based on using sources and knowledge about the thesis topic. A blog, on the other hand, is a writing form where the author has the right to write upon any topic without the need to restrain oneself within any limitations.
Writing a blog is different from academic writing as it allows the writer to use the first-person point of view. It also allows the use of informal language, slang, or any language that conveys the message. It also can include the personal and emotional details of the writer, something which is not found in an academic paper.
Thus, the correct answers are the second, fourth, and sixth options.
A blog is an online platform where we go to receive information that is neither too informal nor too formal. The difference between blog writing and academic writing are;
A blog can include informal language. A blog can be written in first-person point of view. A blog includes personal and emotional details.Academic writing is a very formal style of writing where only facts are presented.
A blog is most times meant for entertainment. Its content could be informal. It uses the first-person point of view. Words such as I, Myself, We, etc., are used.
It is also subjective as the emotions of the author can be reflected in the text. Therefore, options B, D, and F are correct.

The group hanging out in front of the movies cringed when Larry sauntered around the corner. His personality was so forceful that he could hardly keep from giving everyone a hard time.
Jimmy spoke up to greet him, "Hey, Larry. I liked your speech today in class. You were quite, um, assertive when you jumped in and took Harold's turn."
Henry chimed in, "Yeah, I thought that Harold was acting a bit too modestly to get on with it."
Larry answered back favorably, "Thanks, guys. Do you mind if I join you?"
"No, not at all," said George, the group's unofficial leader. He was self-confident enough to take charge in any situation, figuring he was the best man for the job whether or not anyone else agreed.
Larry got in line behind them, and when he stepped up to the counter to purchase his ticket, the young clerk at the window nervously rang up his ticket. She fumbled with his change.
"Don't mind her," grumbled the deliberately paced veteran from the back of the booth. "She's new, but I bet she'll get the hang of things in no time," he offered with a rather unconvincing wink.

What does the phrase deliberately paced suggest about the veteran ticket taker in the paragraph above?
A.
He is reckless.
B.
He is slow-moving.
C.
He is careful.
D.
He is not clumsy.
Answer:
B. He is slow-moving.
Explanation:
The adjective deliberate refers to something that is done intentionally and planned beforehand. If a movement or action is deliberate, it is slow and careful. This is why both options B and C are potentially correct. However, option B is more likely to be correct as there is no reason for the veteran to be careful. He is simply making small talk and teasing the young clerk. He is old, which is why it would make sense for him to be slow-moving.

can someone please write a hook for the topic, should junk food be banned at school?
Answer:
Explanation:
BANNING JUNK FOOD AND SODAS IN SCHOOLS
Banning of junk foods and sodas in school has been contentious given the benefits and setbacks it has in the economic, social and nutritional aspects. The foods are generally characterized by a low nutritional value and their abundance of salt, sugar and calories. The emphasis on their use in educational institutions is mainly due to the high level of consumption given the large populations in them, and the early exposure to health conditions that are proven to result from junk foods and sodas.
One of the reasons why junk foods and sodas should be banned is because they facilitate health conditions such as obesity, which is a predisposing factor to heart diseases, diabetes and high blood pressure. 20% of adult Americans are obese, and about 300,000 people die annually from complications related with being overweight.
Once young people are encouraged to adopt health foods, future generations will have the culture of eating nutritious foods. It is evident that promoting and selling junk foods and sodas endorse their usage among students. Students spend most of their daytime in schools, an institution that is entrusted with the laying of firm foundations across various aspects, including healthy habits. Consequently, the converse promotion of healthy foods will be quickly embraced by students and hence a healthier society.
However, banning of junk foods and sodas is faced by some issues, the first being the actual definition of junk foods. It is inefficient to just state kinds of junk foods. Contrary, junk foods should be defined from the ingredients since some foods like pizzas can be considerably be either junk or nutritious.
The education system in America is designed to provide for communities control over schools. The control is rooted in democracy. School board members are bestowed with the responsibilities to develop policies that reflect the needs and opinions of the society. As such, the decision on what to be availed to students is determined by the board members, making the decision inapplicably determinable at national levels.
Banning of junk foods and sodas is further limited by the approach in its implementation. The ban includes removing the option for the foods instead of educating on making appropriate healthy choices. Therefore, teaching about nutrition could be a better way of approaching consequences of the use of junk foods and sodas. It is conclusive that the despite the effects of junk foods and sodas being profoundly adverse, banning them in schools may not be an adequate measure of counteracting their use.

The French and Indian War began in 1754 and ended with the Treaty of Paris in 1763. The war provided Great Britain enormous territorial gains in North America, but disputes over subsequent frontier policy and paying the war’s expenses led to colonial discontent, and ultimately to the American Revolution.
