Good authors choose their words very carefully. Take a few minutes to write a short paragraph describing an
experience you have recently had. Pick a location you went to or an event you attended. Once you have finished, read
over what you have written. Now, write a second paragraph. In it, you will repeat the information from the first
paragraph, but you will choose your words more carefully. Ask yourself questions like: What words capture this image
exactly? What is the best word to convey how something looked, or how I felt? Take more time with the second
paragraph
Your response should be at least 150 words in total.

Answer:

Recently, my family when to the beach. This would be more common in the summer, but because it is fall, there was almost no one else there. The sky was grey because it was a cloudy day, and the sand was very cold, as well as the water. I dipped my finger in the water to feel it, which would normally be I would have to get splashed by the waves to get close enough, but not today. Instead, today the water was still, just full of little ripples. It was about the time for the sunset, but you could hardly see it because of the clouds covering it.

Recently, my family went to the beach. This would be more common in the summer, but because it is fall, there was almost no one else there. The sky was clouded over and it made the whole place look eerie. The sand felt almost like snow, with a similar texture and temperature they shared. The water was pretty calm, with no crashing waves, just little ripples near the edge. On a day like this there is usually wind, but not today. Instead, the air felt still and silent. I looked a the muted sunset, which was covered by the clouds, making the usually bright and vibrant sunset instead full of pastels. Even though the sun was darker than usual, it still managed to light up the shimmering water below.

New Technology Leads to Bigger Cities(Multiple choice 100 pts + brainliest!!!)

In the 1800s, the United States was still a very young nation, trying to solidify its identity. The Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain, a fast development of society following the introduction of machines. The United States was slower than Great Britain to fully embrace the changes. Yet key technological developments caused a rapid growth in American urban areas.

Better farming methods and tools in the 1800s increased food production. Americans were able to grow enough food for their families as well as to sell. The abundance caused food prices to fall.

The expansion of cotton and the growth of textile factories in northern states helped produce the first wave of American industry. More people turned to work in northern factories as a way to support their families. Thousands of immigrants to the United States also settled in or near port cities, looking for work. Even today, the need for work is a common reason people move to urban areas.

As a result, cities grew in numbers of people and physical space. As more people and businesses moved in, they needed buildings for living and working. They needed ways to move around the city. We call this process urbanization.

In 1820, the United States had only a few cities of 10,000 residents or more. About seven percent of U.S. residents lived in urban areas. The number of cities with more than 10,000 people grew quickly over the next 40 years, especially in the Northeast and Midwest. By 1860, about 20 percent lived in cities. Philadelphia and New York City were the most populated cities in 1860 and would soon reach one million residents.

The urbanization of the United States quickened due to technology improvements. Without innovations in food production, the factories could not have grown so quickly. The trend quickened after 1860 and continued throughout the 21st century as well. By 2007, more Americans lived in or near cities than they did in rural areas.
