GOLD IN THE SKY
By Alan E. Nourse
Chapter 1. Trouble Times Two
The sun was glowing dull red as it slipped down behind the curving horizon of Mars, but Gregory Hunter was not able to see it.
There was no viewscreen in the ship's cabin; it was too tiny for that. Greg twisted around in the cockpit that had been built just big enough to hold him, and shifted his long legs against the brace-webbing, trying to get them comfortable.
He knew he was afraid ... but nobody else knew that, not even the captain waiting at the control board on the satellite, and in spite of the fear Greg Hunter would not have traded places at this moment with anyone else in the universe.
He had worked too hard and waited too long for this moment.
He heard the count-down monitor clicking in his ears, and his hands clenched into fists. How far from Mars would he be 10 minutes from now? He didn't know. Farther than any man had ever traveled before in the space of 10 minutes, he knew, and faster. How far and how fast would depend on him alone.
"All set, Greg?" It was the captain's voice in the earphones.
"All set, Captain."
"You understand the program?"
Greg nodded. "24 hours out, 24 hours back, 90 degrees to the ecliptic1, and all the acceleration2 I can stand both ways."
Greg grinned to himself. He thought of the months of conditioning he had gone through to prepare for this run ... the hours in the centrifuge to build up his tolerance to acceleration, the careful diet, the rigorous hours of physical conditioning. It was only one experiment, one tiny step in the work that could someday give men the stars, but to Gregory Hunter at this moment it was everything.
"Good luck, then." The captain cut off, and the blastoff buzzer sounded.
He was off. His heart hammered in his throat, and his eyes ached fiercely, but he paid no attention. His finger crept to the air-speed indicator, then to the cut-off switch. When the pressure became too great, when he began to black out, he would press it.
But not yet. It was speed they wanted; they had to know how much acceleration a man could take for how long and still survive, and now it was up to him to show them.
Fleetingly, he thought of Tom ... poor old stick-in-the-mud Tom, working away in his grubby little Mars-bound laboratory, watching bacteria grow. Tom could never have qualified for a job like this. Tom couldn't even go into free-fall for 10 minutes without getting sick all over the place. Greg felt a surge of pity for his brother, and then a twinge of malicious anticipation. Wait until Tom heard the reports on this run! It was all right to spend your time poking around with bottles and test tubes if you couldn't do anything else, but it took something special to pilot an XP ship for Project Star-Jump. And after this run was over, even Tom would have to admit it....
There was a lurch, and quite suddenly the enormous pressure was gone.
Something was wrong. He hadn't pushed the cut-off button, yet the ship's engines were suddenly silent. He jabbed at the power switch. Nothing happened. Then the side-jets sputted, and he was slammed sideways into the cot.
He snapped on the radio speaker. "Control ... can you hear me? Something's gone wrong out here...."

Explain why some people say the equipment rules for the Paralympic Games are not fair. Do you think leaders should make changes? Why or why not? Use facts and details from the Article to back up your answer. Write your answer in the box below.
how the Paralympics classification system keeps things fair??
Millions of people are expected to watch the Paralympic Games in Rio de Janeiro over 11 days this September. Chances are you will see a swimmer with one leg on the blocks next to another swimmer with two legs and two arms. So how that can be fair?
The secret is a process called classification.
Classification underlies all Paralympic sport, yet the concept – and its practical application – is possibly the greatest barrier to the broader community’s understanding of the Paralympics.
Classification is the process of allocating athletes into classes so that they compete against others whose impairment affects them to a similar degree in their sport.
Who can compete?
The Paralympics are for athletes with a physical, intellectual or visual impairment.
But not every person with a disability is eligible for the Paralympics, and not every athlete who is eligible for the Paralympics is eligible for every sport.
Some sports, such as athletics and swimming, have events for athletes with any impairment who meet a threshold disability requirement.
Other sports, such as 7-a-side football or goalball, are reserved for athletes with a specific form of impairment.
The first element of classification is to determine whether an athlete has an impairment that makes them eligible for a sport.
The rules for the Paralympic games are said to be unfair because they exclude those who are severely disabled.
Participating in the Paralympics Those who participate in an event have to have the same level of disability. If an event cannot produce enough players according to a specific criteria, it is cancelled.The events that are usually cancelled are those belonging to those who are severely disabled. The reasons they are not usually high in number is because they require specialized transport and accommodation which can be quite expensive.
As a result, their chances of participating in the Paralympics are reduced which is unfair.
Changes need to be made so that even the most severely disabled are able to compete if they want to.
In conclusion, there should be a change to Paralympic rules as well as more funding and support.

The Railway Children
By Edith Nesbit
Chapter I, The Beginning of Things
They were not railway children to begin with. I don't suppose they had ever thought about railways except as a means of getting to Maskelyne and Cook's, the Pantomime, Zoological Gardens, and Madame Tussaud's. They were just ordinary suburban children, and they lived with their Father and Mother in an ordinary red-brick-fronted villa, with coloured glass in the front door, a tiled passage that was called a hall, a bath-room with hot and cold water, electric bells, French windows, and a good deal of white paint, and 'every modern convenience', as the house-agents say.
There were three of them. Roberta was the eldest. Of course, Mothers never have favourites, but if their Mother HAD had a favourite, it might have been Roberta. Next came Peter, who wished to be an Engineer when he grew up; and the youngest was Phyllis, who meant extremely well.
Mother did not spend all her time in paying dull calls to dull ladies, and sitting dully at home waiting for dull ladies to pay calls to her. She was almost always there, ready to play with the children, and read to them, and help them to do their home-lessons. Besides this she used to write stories for them while they were at school, and read them aloud after tea, and she always made up funny pieces of poetry for their birthdays and for other great occasions, such as the christening of the new kittens, or the refurnishing of the doll's house, or the time when they were getting over the mumps.
These three lucky children always had everything they needed: pretty clothes, good fires, a lovely nursery with heaps of toys, and a Mother Goose wall-paper. They had a kind and merry nursemaid, and a dog who was called James, and who was their very own. They also had a Father who was just perfect—never cross, never unjust, and always ready for a game—at least, if at any time he was NOT ready, he always had an excellent reason for it, and explained the reason to the children so interestingly and funnily that they felt sure he couldn't help himself.
You will think that they ought to have been very happy. And so they were, but they did not know HOW happy till the pretty life in the Red Villa was over and done with, and they had to live a very different life indeed.
The dreadful change came quite suddenly.

Father Wolf waited till his cubs could run a little, and then on the night of the Pack Meeting took them and Mowgli and Mother Wolf to the Council Rock – a hilltop covered with stones and boulders where a hundred wolves could hide. Akela, the great gray Lone Wolf, who led all the Pack by strength and cunning, lay out at full length on his rock, and below him sat forty or more wolves of every size and colour, from badger-coloured veterans who could handle a buck alone, to young black three-year-olds who thought they could. The Lone Wolf had led them for a year now. He had fallen twice into a wolf-trap in his youth, and once he had been beaten and left for dead; so he knew the manners and customs of men.

Explain why some people say the equipment rules for the Paralympic Games are not fair. Do you think leaders should make changes? Why or why not? Use facts and details from the Article to back up your answer. I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
Answer:
Some people are worried about the equipment that people use for the Paralympic Games because they are worried the prosthetic legs may give the runner an advantage. The text says that technology has improved a lot, so some of the artificial legs that people use may be able to run faster than what the wearer can naturally run.
As for the last part, I will give you my opinion to help but I encourage you to try to think of your own because you know this is an opinion thing and everyone is different.
I think that leaders should make a change, because like the text said, single amputees might feel discouraged from entering the running competitions because they know that the double amputees potentially have an advantage. It would basically be like cheating. The leaders should do a background check of what the double amputees are using, so that they know the artificial legs only allow the person to run at the speed they are naturally capable of

Which tone would be most appropriate for a trailer that includes this scene?
informal
humorous
mysterious
educational
Mysterious tone would be most appropriate for a trailer that includes this scene. Hence, option C is correct.
What is mysterious tone?The usage of words like "clammy," "followed," and "unwholesome" in Charles Dickens' A Tale of Two Cities suggests a mysterious, hidden, gloomy, or wicked tone.
The "tone" of the writing expresses the writer's attitude. A novel's tone, for example, could be suspenseful because the author withholds crucial facts to generate this impression. Tone is also commonly regarded to describe the work as a whole, rather than a specific section.
arcane, occult, and cryptic The terms enigmatic, inscrutable, mystical, and obscure apply to things that are difficult to understand or describe.
Thus, option C is correct.
