HURRYYYYYY i need a paragraph long repsonse to "yes kids should play contact sports" like stat please

Answer:

Getting kids off the sofa and onto the sports pitch brings a wide variety of physical, mental and social skills which will bode well for them as they reach adulthood and beyond.

And obviously, we would say that. But in order to prove our point, we've compiled no less than 9 reasons why kids should get off the sofa and play some sport.

1. Improve physical health

Forgive me for starting with the obvious, but sport brings physical health benefits to anyone who takes to the field – and children are no different.

According to to Public Health England's 2014/15 child obesity figures, 9.1% of 4-5 year olds are obese, with that figure rising to 19.1% for children aged 10-11.

The importance of getting kids out playing sport first starts with the physical advantages, and given the figures – it's clearly important to get them involved as young as possible.

You can never just expect their experiences in PE to fuel a want for more sport - it needs to be supported with recreational sport.

Rather than reminiscing about how you never wasted so much time in-front of the TV as a child, ensure your kids are enthused and excited by sport, and all the health benefits will immediately follow.

2. Lifelong well-being

The older a child gets involved in sport, the less-likely they are to consider it an important part of their lives, and the less chance you'll have of securing their interest as they progress into adulthood.

Sport is a great avenue for promoting a healthy lifestyle, and this feeds into a number of other areas of life. For example, those who consistently play sport are more likely to be aware of the healthy food choices they need to make in order to perform.

As an adult, your position as a positive role-model is vital. Make healthy lifestyle choices and promote regular exercise as a parent, and your children are likely to follow suit.

The physical advantages to playing sport are well-documented, but that's not the only boost you'll get to your well-being by getting out and about. A fit and active body has been proven to translate into a fit and active mind. Reduce stress and increase mental health by getting you kids active.

All these factors roll together to help children build a healthy state of well-being that will last them a lifetime.

3. Develop social skills

Developing social skills is another huge part of parenting, and one that again needs to be developed at a young age if the benefits are to be reaped in the future.

One of the best ways to develop a child's social skills is through getting involved in sport, particularly team-based activities. Communicating new ideas, listening to others as part of a group, and using communication to solve problems by working as a team – just a few of the things children learn from getting involved in sport.

On top of that, a child can grow into the first leadership role of their lives by taking a captains role in a sports team. Again, exposing children to environments where communication is key pay-offs big time in the future. Their conversational skills and ability to play a role in a team or as a leader will come in handy as an adult in the future.

4. Build self-esteem and confidence

Moving slightly back to the development of personal, social-based skills, self-esteem and confidence are two further areas where children can benefit through the means of sport.

5. It could even go somewhere...

As a child, it was always my dream to step out at Lords as an opening batsman. Unfortunately, my dreams were scuppered by one tiny barrier – talent. Still, using that dream as a motivational tool was great for feeding my enthusiasm for sport, and for some the dream does come true.

Competition for places on the professional sporting ladder is fierce, and it probably isn't wise to start convincing your child that they're the next Lionel Messi or Dan Carter. But growing their love for sport by watching how the elite go about it is great for aspirational reasons, and will ensure they stick around in sport for the long-term.

Help your child look at sport from a positive frame of mind, looking to emulate their favourite sportsmen and women out on the field – rather than it being a chore they don't enjoy. It'll fuel their willingness to work, improve and succeed.

Business messages should use positive language rather than negative language. Positive language
a.

b.

c.

d.

Passage A: Andrew Carnegie: A Friend of the People
1 What makes a successful life? A look at the life of Andrew Carnegie offers some clues. Carnegie was a nineteenth-century industrialist who rose from poverty to build a steel empire. He ultimately became the richest man in the world. His success was largely a product of his study of business and industrial trends and of his management of his relationships with well-connected people.

2 Carnegie was poor when he arrived in the U.S. at the age of 13, but his habits of study and personal skills enabled him to rise quickly. He worked long days and weeks in a textile mill, but read widely and applied himself to the study of bookkeeping at night. At 14, he landed a job as a messenger in a telegraph office. He again studied to get ahead, memorizing a street map of Pittsburgh, the locations of local businesses, and the faces of important businessmen. He also became one of only three people in the U.S. at the time to learn to decipher Morse code by ear. His work paid off when he was promoted to the position of telegraph operator, and his skills soon made him the fastest operator in his office. At 17, Carnegie caught the attention of a railroad superintendent, Thomas A. Scott, who hired him as his personal secretary. In this quick succession of events, it is easy to see how Carnegie used his immense drive and skill to lay a foundation for his later success.

3 As a developing and eventually successful businessman, Carnegie advanced through a continued close attention to relationships and to his era’s business and industrial trends. He worked closely at Scott’s side. There he learned about stocks and making sound investments. At the close of the Civil War, he left the railroad. He’d decided that he could better realize his goal of attaining a “fortune” by building upon his interests in iron. When he later expanded into the steel industry, Carnegie assessed the current technology and decided to apply what is known as the Bessemer process to his production method. This enabled him to increase production while keeping his prices low. Ultimately, this allowed him to rule the industry. As he built his companies, he carefully maintained and grew his relationships with Scott and the railroad’s president, J. Edgar Thomson. He named his first steel mill after Thomson, and he offered both men opportunities to invest in his ongoing ventures.

4 Beyond his business achievements, he was a man who gave much to others. He donated hundreds of millions of dollars to education, the arts, free public libraries, and foundations dedicated to world peace. His generosity has improved the lives of generations of people. He died a rich man, in more ways than one.
Based on the first text, what did Carnegie's relationship with Thomas A. Scott contribute to his eventual success?
A.
business sense and connections
B.
an entry into the steel business
C.
telegraphing and secretarial skills
D.
a fortune to invest in stocks

(NO LINKS) Read the paragraph from the article.


Lately, there does not seem to be a clear line determining what we can and cannot joke about. For example, there is a lot of humor out there that expresses hatred of women. This kind of humor has frightening impacts. Dr. Thomas Ford, a psychologist from Western Carolina University, ran a study of such humor. He found a direct link between the enjoyment of these jokes and related behavior. People who enjoy humor that is hateful to women, the study reports, also show a greater willingness to discriminate against women. It's not honest to say it's "just a joke." The impacts are very real.


Which sentence BEST summarizes the paragraph?


A. Dr. Ford's study showed that people who enjoy hateful jokes about women are more likely to treat women badly.


B. Dr. Ford's study showed that there is a lot of humor on the internet right now that shows a hatred of women.


C. People who say they are just making some jokes are not telling the truth.


D. People have a hard time telling what they can and cannot joke about.
