I am puzzled with this word.
In dictionary. when precede is a ver, explaination is " to be or go before something or someone in time or space"

example sentence in dictionary:
It would be helpful if you were to precede the report with an introduction.

Can I understand as following? It would be helpful if you can start the report with an introduction. Am I right?

however, i find such a sentence.

The awards ceremony was preceded by the Microsoft Partner Summit.

What does it mean? The ceremony happened before the Summit? Or, the ceremony is part of the Summit, but it is the very first programme of the Summit?

Please help me out.

Thank you so much!

[[Music:
A résumé summarizing experience with instrument, voice and/or composition, giving years studied and awards received. You are
strongly encouraged to submit a 10-minute audio recording of a solo performance representing your abilities. Please give your
name, instrument/voice part, and work performed on the recording.]]
- For experiences, and awards… what sorts of things I can put??? I had played alto sax since the middle school… I was in this local orchestra called IAMS orchestra for 2 years (I might do this orchestra again this year) and have been volunteering at local hospitals, and elders house… I was in marching band 4 yr, jazz band 3yr, and symphonice band 2 yr… (would these be part of resume??) and also for awards part. Can I put awards like where band had gained??? Like the symphonic bands, you go play in SCSBOA competition and get graded, such as superior or excellent… would that considered too?help

Hey guys,
I'm going to be starting UCI in a couple of days and I'm really having some mixed feelings about my schedule. This past summer, I took, Math 2A (Calculus 1) at a Community College, and I found out around August from a GC at UCI that if I want to do pre-med (which I really want to), I should be taking Chemistry 1A and Biology 93 my first quarter and take Math later on say Spring Quarter. However, I'm afraid that if I wait that long, I might forget some of the stuff I learned in Math 2A. The other alternative is taking Chem 1A in the winter, and 1B in the spring, and then 1C in the summer. Anyone have any advice as to what I should do? Another thing, the

I owe the phone company for moving out of state (where they dont' have service) and breaking a contract. They want $480, lol. Won't let me out of it, even though I have 2 kids and no child support.So I guess I will fill up the master card and declare. Does that mean I can't continue on with studen loan and keep going to university? Do they go after my ex for support?
