Select the correct text in the passage.
One theme in this excerpt from Isaac Asimov’s “The Fun They Had” is remembering the past. Which sentence in the excerpt best reflects this theme?
Margie went into the schoolroom. It was right next to her bedroom, and the mechanical teacher was on and waiting for her. It was always on at the same time every day except Saturday and Sunday, because her mother said little girls learned better if they learned at regular hours.
The screen was lit up, and it said: "Today's arithmetic lesson is on the addition of proper fractions. Please insert yesterday's homework in the proper slot."

Margie did so with a sigh. She was thinking about the old schools they had when her grandfather's grandfather was a little boy. All the kids from the whole neighborhood came, laughing and shouting in the schoolyard, sitting together in the schoolroom, going home together at the end of the day. They learned the same things, so they could help one another on the homework and talk about it.

And the teachers were people. . . .

The mechanical teacher was flashing on the screen: “When we add the fractions ½ and ¼—”
Margie was thinking about how the kids must have loved it in the old days. She was thinking about the fun they had.

Please help i need to write a persuasive essay over daylight saving time and don't know how. Here's the template. I need this fast it's due by 9:40

Answers

Why should we have daylight saving time?

More daylight also could mean more outdoor exercise (or exercise at all) for full-time workers. The nominal reason for daylight saving time has long been to save energy.

Advantages of Daylight Saving time:

1. There’s more light to enjoy in the evening.

What’s better: Only a fleeting moment of daylight before work (and driving home in the dark) or being able to enjoy the daylight well into the evening hours? That’s what we thought. More light = more time to do what you want or need to do = a happier you.

2. The crime rate drops during daylight saving time.

Research has shown that robbery rates after daylight saving time fall an average of 7 percent, with a much larger 27 percent drop during those light-filled evening hours that didn’t exist before the time change. Mind. Blown.

3. It minimizes energy consumption (and lowers your costs).

When you enjoy more natural daylight, you use less artificial light — and that makes a real impact on the overall cost of energy consumption.

4. It lowers the incidence of traffic accidents.

Like driving home in the daylight versus the darkness, driving is easier when you can see your surroundings and where you’re going, right? Duh! Studies actually show that we could save hundreds of lives per year if we implemented daylight saving time year-round.

5. Light is one of those objects that helps us feel safer. We may leave our house lights on at night or while we’re away. We may also decorate our landscape with additional fixtures to help light up our homes, all in an effort to help us feel safer.

Why shouldn't we have daylight saving time?

There are individual health concerns. Switching to Daylight Saving Time is associated with cardiovascular morbidity, a higher risk of a heart attack or stroke, and an increase in hospital admissions for irregular heartbeats. It is not good for your health as it goes against your body's circadian rhythm that helps regulate your sleep-wake cycle.

Disadvantages of Daylight Saving time:

1.People are unusually sleepy on the following Monday.

2.Increase in heart attack risk on the following Monday.

3.Initial spike in traffic accidents in the first week of daylight saving time.

4.Some people never adjust to time change resulting in decreased quality of life and health issues.

5.The time change can make people sick.

April Fools' Days Around the World
April Fools' Day is celebrated around the world, although it varies somewhat from country to country. In the United States, for example, it's a day to play practical jokes. In France, where the holiday is known as Poisson d'Avril, or April Fish, people secretly tape paper fish on their friends' backs. A common April Fools' prank in Portugal is to throw flour on someone; in Scotland, the most popular trick involves sending someone on a useless errand. Denmark celebrates April Fools' Day on April 1, but some people there celebrate again in May. Maj-kat, on May 1, is yet another day for jokes and pranks in the spring.
