Please put them in seperate sentences not all in one.
Thanks a million.

I know the defination, just kind of brain dead and can't think of any good sentences. Anyone have any?

I am in 11th grade, but I will be 18 next week ( I should be in 12th grade but I had to repeat 1st grade ten years ago ). Anyway, either way I am in in high school.

I am usually a straight A student or I get close to straight A's. But this year my grades are not as good. I am getting B's and C's and few A's.
I have had a really bad start. My teachers hate me because I have been missing A LOT of school. But that was because I was sick more this year and I am going to be out now because of my grandmother's death. I am completely upset about my grandma because we were very close and already my school does not understand. Tomorrow, I have to see my grandma dead. My mother asked for my school work but they would not give it to her ( but that is because I have not missed 3 days yet in a row so they might tomorrow. )

Anyway, I just want to start all over. At my current school I am shy and I have hardly any friends. I want to have more friends, miss no school, & get better grades.

I can use at home? I've heard of Rosetta Stone on the radio. I want to visit another country & would like to be able to communicate on some level. If you have no personal knowledge of a system that works, please don't answer. I've done my own research & this one seem like the best so far.

Are our schools teaching to the standard tests that the states have us take? I mean instead of learning of the past wars and treaties signed in history class, we have to take math tests... Anyone else see the problem developing? In Chicago, there was a school that took away all of their extra curriculars , so there students could focus on the basics: math, science, and english. Are we creating robots? Test take away the most important things that we need in real life: creativity, imagination, and the ability to communicate..filling in circles? what does that prove? input please.

The marginal tax rate is defined as the extra taxes paid on additional income divided by the increase in income. Calculate the marginal tax rate for the proportional tax system as income rises from $50,000 to $100,000. Calculate the marginal tax rate as income rises from $100,000 to $200,000. Calculate the corresponding marginal tax rates for the regressive and progressive tax systems.

I believe that the answers are 25% for both the income rises from $50,000 to $100,000 and from $100,000 to $200,000 for the proportional tax system.


(Income/Average tax rate proportional tax system):($50,000/ 25%),($100,000/25%),($200,000/25%)



(Income/Average tax rate regressive tax system) : ($50,000/ 30%),($100,000/25%),($200,000/20%)


(Income/Average tax rate progressive tax system): ($50,000/ 20%),($100,000/25%),($200,000/30%)

OK. difficult violent child in my class aged 10. (Has a history of fighting, upseting others, storming out of class, swearing in a variety of languages shouting at, being disrespectful to and even once injuring teachers). Possible reasons are that he is a refugee from Somalia and later had a short stay in the middle east, plus he was badly bullied when he first arrived in the UK. (the refugee EAL thing is very common in our school). So, the strategies I have put inplace for him are this; he sees a councillor once a week, I have a home school book for him - where I write down what he has done that day and put a smiley/frowny face so his mum, who doesn't speak English, can see how he's been. She has to sign this to show whe's seen it and her elder children can translate what it says. I also go down the road of praising, a lot confidence building etc...the home school book has worked really well until recently. but he's been awful the past week - any ideas?

Therefore I am looking for some nice questions & answers, not sport or regional related to ask in a trivia.
Can you post some for me, please?
