Reading
1. The first official World Oceans Day took place on June 8, 2009.
This annual event was proposed by Canada at the 1992 Earth
Summit. It was celebrated unofficially for many years with events
such as beach cleanups and seafood festivals. In 2009, the UN
announced that World Oceans Day would be observed every year
as a way of honoring the importance of oceans and addressing
future environmental challenges.
2. Is the future of the oceans our responsibility? While the oceans provide
so much, including food, trade routes, transportation, and recreation,
humans do not always treat them with respect. Pirates and drug
dealers commit crimes on the oceans. Nations hold their battles on
them. Even people who rely on oceans to make a living sometimes
Ignore rules about species protection. Many others pollute the
waters carelessly as they have fun on the beach.
3. Some people think oceans can take care of themselves. Others believe
environmental problems will hurt future generations. Would the
oceans and their species survive without any human intervention?

explanation:

each year on march 8, international women’s day is celebrated around the globe. it’s an important opportunity to shine a spotlight on women’s involvement, contributions, and accomplishments on a range of issues from domestic violence to the role of women in the c-suite. the theme this year is “be bold for change”― a dictum that those who know me personally will acknowledge has pretty much been my mantra throughout my career on wall street, in media and most recently, in philanthropy.the empowerment of girls as leaders, who can be emboldened today to become even stronger leaders tomorrow, is an increasingly recognized imperative in our world, and it couldn’t be closer to my heart

in the short story the slip-over sweater by jesse stuart, the main character and narrator shan is friends with grace, an intelligent girl he has known since childhood and with whom he used to be in love.

at the beginning of the story, shan believes he’s no longer in love with grace, but loves jo-anne instead. in order to buy a slip-over sweater and have jo-anne wear it so that the other students would know she loved him too, shan takes a loan at the bank.

while jo-anne is wearing shan’s sweater, his friend grace starts to wear another popular boy’s one, roy’s sweater. because of that, the other students begin to pay attention to grace and compliment her perseverance and effort. they admire her for walking 5 miles to school every day, despite the weather, and still getting the best grades. shan, who knows all of that for a fact, says, as the narrator, ‘and i knew she had the durability and the toughness of a storm-battered mountain oak.’ he compares his friend’s strength – not only physical, but also of character – to an oak tree, whose wood is known for being sturdy.

as the story goes on, shan changes his behavior out of concern for the debt he has to pay at the bank. his new girlfriend jo-anne never asks him what is wrong nor offers any sort of . instead, she breaks up with shan for not being as fun as she thought he was supposed to be. grace, however, not only asks about shan’s problem, but him make the money he needs. shan can’t but notice how different the girls are and what a wonderful person grace is.   even though he used to find jo-anne prettier at the beginning of the story, he now says, ‘grace was as beautiful as our mountain was in april, prettier than a blossom of wild phlox or a mountain daisy.’ his comparing grace to a mountain or something that exists on a mountain (such as a mountain oak or daisy) certainly has important meaning since shan loves the mountain and everything about it and he knows the mountain thoroughly. shan also loves and knows grace as completely as he does the mountain.
