Select the correct answer. Read this speech given by US Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel on Veterans Day 2014. What is the purpose of the speech? Every year, we set aside Veterans Day to honor all the men and women who’ve served our country in uniform. We celebrate veterans from generations past. We welcome a new generation of veterans home from war. And we thank our future veterans, still serving at home and abroad. They are securing our nation through their engagement across the globe. Some are in West Africa, contributing to the global effort to stop the spread of Ebola. Some are in the Middle East, working closely with our coalition partners in the fight against ISIL. And some are in Afghanistan, where next month the United States will responsibly end the longest war in our history. For our troops serving around the world today, and those transitioning out of the military, our obligations are only beginning. Taking care of them, and their families, is a sacred responsibility we must always uphold. Let’s celebrate them by telling their stories. Let’s help those who need it, while supporting their strength and resilience. And let’s honor our veterans by creating new opportunities for them to contribute after their service, so they can continue making a difference in the world. To all our veterans—thank you. Thank you for everything you’ve done for our country. You’re among the best our nation has to offer. God bless you and your families, and happy Veterans Day.

Answers

David Attenborough and Diana Sawyer are big names in television program work, being pioneers in their fields and serving as an model to other professionals in their particular fields. In this regard, you can answer the questions above as follows:

1. David Attenborough works longer in television. As we can see in the text above, he worked for 60 years in television programs. Which means that he started working in 1961, if we consider the current year, while Diane Sawyer started working in 1967.

2. By reading the above text, we can see that Diana Sawyer has worked on several types of TV shows. Among them, we can mention: news programs (such as a weather reporter) and talk shows (such as a reporter who interviewed artists and world leaders). Outside of TV, she worked as an advisor at the White House, writing statements for the president.

3. David Attenborough has had a strong vision of environmentalism and wildlife. He was one of the pioneers to present this type of subject on TV and because of that, he was considered a great example for filmmakers and reporters who wanted to address this type of subject. By the way, he was a great example participating in environmental projects and writing books about it. On the other hand, Diane Sawyer is considered a role model, due to her resourcefulness and versatility, as she was a great professional in every field in which she worked. In addition, she managed to be an important woman for the media, when women were not so visible in this sector, being considered one of the most influential women in the world.

4. Diane Sawyer has worked as a writer in addition to working on TV. We can see this in the text above, which shows that she wrote several statements for the president of the republic when she worked as an adviser in the White House. In addition to writing the news so efficiently that she was twice awarded an Emmy.

5. Both made their marks in the world by being people dedicated in their work, to the point of standing out in the area in which they were involved.

“Who do you get into the most conflict with in your life? If you had to use one word to describe how you behave in conflict situations with this person, what would it be? Why? If you had to describe one word to describe how the other person behaves in conflict situations with you, what would it be? Why? Do you think the other person would agree with these words? Why or why not?”

Answers

Answer:

My parents

Explanation:

In these conflicts I behave very carefully. I behave careful because I don't want to make them upset or say something I will come to regret. I think other would agree because most people in my life know that I try my best to think before I speak even in situations of conflict

Answer:

Once upon a time, this person was my sister (and best friend). We have very different personalities and would frequently find ourselves in disagreement. In conflict situations, I would either avoid her or argue with her... and I have come to regret innumerable arguments. One word to describe how I behaved is 'defensively' (and another is probably 'regrettably').

She often behaved rather apologetically afterwards, but during the arguments the best way to describe her behaviour would be 'obdurate'. This of course impeded communication.

I think she would mostly agree. We have passed those times of incessant conflict, but we are also less close than we were then.

what is the danger of not passing on information from generation to generation?​

Answers

Not passing on, accurate, history from one generation to the next is like severing an anchor chain. All the relevant information, inspiration, wisdom & knowledge accumulated over the millennia would be gone. Nothing left to build upon. What worked from those that did not. The anchor of the past gives us foundations of society, moral, spiritual & ethical ways of achieving civility with each other. Unfortunately, you can already see the results with those who want to destroy culture & tradituon. Selfish tribalism takes over with people separating out by skin color & differing beliefs systems. A scortched earth policy when it come to dealing with others of a different belief system.

Zero tolerance. Only group think. All moral & ethical behaviors of the past destroyed. Just a small group of radicals in power & control of the media, both in news & social. They set the only agendas. Yes, when they say just two sexes & genders no longer exist, they no longer are true. Truth comes from the new order. The reset. The New Normal.And the low hanging fruit that will easily believe this garbage is the very young now thirsting for direction & purpose which has now been removed. The youths inner core is no longer nourished as in the past. Where traditionns, strong role models, spirituality, ethical & moral beliefs were strengthened, & personal identity formed.

That is why they are so desperate to cut that traditional anchor chain with the past. T they don't want it corrupting the youth to know the knowledge of the past. To prevent them from developing a strong inner core of self. (Kind of like in 1933 Germany) Back then they burned books.

She had just gotten off the phone with my transphobic uncle, and I said, "Speaking of transphobes I need to tell you something!" I was so nervous. She was very weary and confused at first. She did her best to accept me and use my preferred name and pronouns. After I moved away from home it slowly stopped. She has disowned me since then. While being Genderfluid was only a small part of that it still hurt. However I don't think I'd be alive today if I had stayed in the closet. I was so unhappy and now I know I am being the most authentic me possible.

in ur own words explain the links between poverty and indicators of health like life expectancy and infant mortality

Answers

Answer:

A general measure of population health is useful for comparing the health status of a population over time, or between populations at a single point in time. It permits comparisons of health systems and programmes, and may highlight populations in need of particular attention from health services.1

The infant mortality rate (IMR), defined as the number of deaths in children under 1 year of age per 1000 live births in the same year, has in the past been regarded as a highly sensitive (proxy) measure of population health.2 This reflects the apparent association between the causes of infant mortality and other factors that are likely to influence the health status of whole populations such as their economic development, general living conditions, social well being, rates of illness, and the quality of the environment.
