Doing your own homework appears to be an ODIOUS chore for you. Your TEMPERAMENT is that of a lazy slug. I consider your lack of desire to learn an ATROCITY. You have SUCCUMBED to your own lack of character. You will never be KNOWLEDGEABLE enough to qualify for more than a minimum wage job if you keep this up. Sure, you can RATIONALIZE that it's a long assignment, but if you are not willing to make a SUBSTANTIAL effort in educating yourself, why should I help. I will SOMBERLY advise you that your future is that of a DOMESTICATED animal - the slaughterhouse. I have put this as SUCCINTLY as I can!

I should never have DIGNIFIED your question by providing an answer!
