BY The Editors of Encyclopaedia Britannica | View Edit History
hiking, walking in nature as a recreational activity. Especially among those with sedentary occupations, hiking is a natural exercise that promotes physical fitness, is economical and convenient, and requires no special equipment. Because hikers can walk as far as they want, there is no physical strain unless they walk among hills or mountains.

Many persons walk alone, mainly on weekends or holidays, but youth clubs and other groups arrange rambles, or hikes. The normal length of the walk undertaken is 7 to 12 miles (11 to 19 km) for a half day or 12 to 20 miles (19 to 32 km) for a full day. Those organized rambles, combining exercise with enjoyment of the countryside, are in country districts surrounding large towns and follow a planned route. Most densely populated European towns have hiking trails outside them.
For regular and intensive walkers there are available services offered by such associations as the Ramblers’ Association in Great Britain and the Wilderness Society in the United States. Those organizations encourage hiking and preserve footpaths, bridle paths, and rights of way in parkland and recognized open spaces in areas of natural beauty against the encroachment of builders, local authorities, and national undertakings. They also help hikers to obtain hostel accommodation and, by exchange of information and services, enable persons of one country to pursue these activities in others. The Appalachian Trail Conference (U.S.), with the aid of its member organizations in 14 states, maintains campsites and a trail more than 2,000 miles (3,200 km) long between Mount Katahdin in Maine and Mount Oglethorpe in Georgia; it publishes information on conditions of the camps and trail.
Hiking is basic to many sporting activities and is also a widely recommended and practiced form of physical training. For example, hiking constitutes a large part of mountain climbing; experienced mountaineers know that they must train themselves for the long, arduous hikes over the lower trails and across glaciers and snowfields. Backpack camping, hunting, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing, and orienteering are other sports and sporting activities in which hiking is important. The ability to walk considerable distances without becoming overtired (an ability generally acquired through practice) also enhances the enjoyment of such other activities as bird-watching, nature walks, field trips of all sorts, and even sightseeing.

Hiking is used as a test of fitness, notably in England, where it is embraced in the duke of Edinburgh’s scheme for boys and girls, and in Sweden and the Netherlands. In Sweden it was made a national fitness test in the early 1930s, and by the 1970s more than three million Swedish men, women, and boys possessed the time qualification badge. The Nijmegen marches in the Netherlands, organized by the Dutch League of Physical Culture, are open to the world in both civilian and military categories. The test comprises four separate days’ consecutive walking over distances up to 35 miles (56 km) each day, with about 12,000 persons taking part.

Read the passage:
Letty groaned as the alarm clock sounded. A textbook was
still open next to her on the bed. With eyes half-open, she
dressed in her waitressing uniform. Early customers didn't
normally tip very well, but the diner was the only place she
could get in a quick shift before classes started. At least
she'd be off her feet for a while at school before she had to
go to her evening job at the factory. It was all Letty could

Honeybees have an important role—pollination—when it comes to growing our most beloved food crops. Many food crops rely on honeybees to spread pollen. Without this process, the plants would not produce fruits and seeds, and we would not have our food! This process is why the sudden disappearance of honeybees in the United States is causing a lot of concern among beekeepers and farmers. Scientists are trying to determine the cause, or causes, of what they are calling Colony Collapse Disorder. Many people believe that certain chemicals that are used in pesticides may be causing the bees to suffer a weakened immune system.

Adding a prefix to a word can change its part of speech
A) True
B) False
Answer:
B) False
Explanation:
Prefixes usually do not change the part of speech of the base word, so, for example, adding a prefix to a verb results in a new verb, while adding a prefix to an adjective results in a new adjective.
The day we found the sharks' teeth was foggy and cool. Moisture hung in the air so thick you could almost see it sparkling in the dim sunlight. There were days, early in the summer like this one, where it seemed there was more water in the air than in the bay. We had beached the boat and stepped out on the recently cleared spit of land. The ground had a light dusting of white sand over an under layer of dried black mud. It looked like a recently frosted chocolate cake, though the frosting was spread a bit thin for my taste. The ground was solid, but we knew from experience that it was full of fiddler crab holes, and would be underwater at the first super-high tide. Mysteriously, to us anyway, someone wanted to build a house there.
We often came to these spots to look for artifacts. Our beach, our summer home, had been a fishing camp for as long as anyone living could remember. The oldest stories told of travelers coming down to the edge of the sea, lining up to fill their wagon beds with salted fish to take back home. Old decaying cabins still lined the beach. Rotting nets, hung out to dry in the last century, decorated their weathered walls. Their broken faces spun stories in our minds. The fishermen who, tanned and wrinkled from sun and salt, hauled their nets full of splashing mullet in to cheers from the waiting crowds. The bounty of the sea lightened everyone's hearts, and the smell of roasting fish filled the damp air. Women fanned themselves from wagon seats. Children splashed in the shallow edges of the bay. It was a scene we had acted out as youngsters, building an imaginary bridge to a life we would never fully know.

Trevor is writing a report about the scientist Marie Curie. Trevor wants to revise the draft to improve his introductory paragraph. Read his draft and
complete the task that follows.
Although she came from humble beginnings in her native country of Poland, Marie Curie (born Marie Salomea Skłodowska) was always eager to learn, and she was especially interested in science. Her family did not have much money, so she had to work several jobs in order to pay for college, eventually going on to study physics and math at the prestigious Sorbonne University in Paris, France. That is where she met and married a physics professor named Pierre Curie. The Curies enjoyed doing research together and became known for discovering two new elements. By the time of her death in 1934, Marie Curie's impressive accomplishments included: 1) the discovery of the elements radium and polonium; 2) invention of the first portable x-ray machines and portable radiology units; and 3) directorship of Curie Laboratory (named after her!) at the Radium Institute of the University of Paris.
Choose the best hook that Trevor should use to begin his introductory paragraph:
A.Marie Curie worked as a tutor and governess so that her older sister could study medicine in Paris.
B.You really should learn more about Marie Curie, and I'm going to use the following essay to tell you all the great things you need
to know about her
C.Only one woman has ever won the Nobel Prize in both chemistry and physics, and her impact on science is closely felt even today!
D.Marie Curie had to learn to speak French in order to study physics at the Sorbonne,
C.Only one woman has ever won the Nobel Prize in both chemistry and physics, and her impact on science is closely felt even today!

D) Mae Jemison, the first African American woman in space, once said, The thing that I have done throughout my life is to do the best job that I can and to be me.
Option C is the correct answer. This option shows the following sentence:
Mae Jemison, the first African American woman in space, once said, “The thing that I have done throughout my life is to do the best job that I can and to be me.”
We can arrive at this answer because:
The sentence shown in the question above has two errors.The first mistake is not separating Mae Jemison's lines with quotation marks.The second mistake is not ending with a period.Among the answer options, the only one that fixes these errors and presents the correct sentence is option C.
It is important to remember that the quotation marks must separate Jemison's lines, to signal the reader that the narration will be interrupted. Also, the period must be enclosed in quotation marks, like option C shows.

Using chapters 1-4, find evidence of Gatsby’s profession. Each clue/hint should be a direct quote with a page number. you will then make a prediction as to what his occupation is. Have 8 hints!
Answer:
Jay Gatsby is possibly one of the greatest tragic heroes in American Literature. His devotion to Daisy paired with his desire to “greenlight” his own future and become a member of 1920’s high society is what drives him to become, as the title suggests, “Great.” Students who read the novel will identify with Gatsby’s romantic side, hoping against hope that he will once again win Daisy’s love, even as they despise Tom for his affair with Myrtle. They will see Tom, he of the inherited wealth, the beautiful wife, and the place in society as the novel’s antagonist, and the dirt poor, unmarried, bootlegging and stock market-fixing Gatsby as our hero. There is no doubt that Gatsby is the hero of Fitzgerald’s classic novel. However, students do need a better understanding of just how this man earned his ill-gotten gains and furthermore, how he would have earned them today.
