Leap Year In ancient Rome, Julius Caesar established the 365-day calendar to match the changing seasons created by the earth's movement around the sun. Caesar recognized a problem, though: the earth actually takes 365¼ days to circle the sun. The extra one-quarter day would gradually shift the calendar away from the seasons. Caesar's solution was to add an extra day every four years, in what are now called leap years. Caesar's math wasn't quite right, though. His approach added too many days. So, in 1582, Pope Gregory XIII improved on Caesar's work. He proposed that century years should not be leap years unless they can be evenly divided by four hundred. Thus, 1600 would be a leap year, while 1700 would not. Pope Gregory's calendar, called the Gregorian calendar, is still in use today.

What is the main idea of the passage?

israel is a small country in the middle east about the size of the state of new jersey. the country has a diverse climate with snowy mountains in the north and the hot desert in the south. jordan, syria, and the palestinian authority all border israel to the east. lebanon serves as the northern border and egypt borders in the south.about two-thirds of the population was born in israel. all other israelis come from over 100 different countries. most israeli jews live a lifestyle similar to western europeans and north americans.israel's population is about 75 percent jewish; most of the rest is arab. the israeli-occupied palestinian territories have some 3.5 million inhabitants—about 11 percent jewish, 89 percent palestinian.because of israel's variety of terrain and climate, the country has a large variety of animals. boars roam the damp oak woodlands of the golan heights. caspian turtles live in the marshlands along the coast. and hyenas are prevalent in the negev desert region in the southern israel.israel is the only fully democratic country in the middle east. elections are held for seats in the knesset or parliament every four years. if a party wins 2 percent of the votes, the party gets one or more seats in parliament. no one party has control so they have to work together. the leader of the largest party becomes prime minister.the story of modern israel begins more than 3,500 years ago. most israelis are jews, who are said to be descended from the biblical figure abraham, through his son isaac.

explanation:

one type of the adjectives is predicate adjective. a predicate adjective is an adjective which follows a linking verb and modifies or refers back to the main subject of that linking verb.

it usually is used just before the noun it modies.

here in this example:

'penguins seem comfortable in the coolest habitats', comfortable is the predicate adjective which follows the linking verb 'seem' and modifies the noun.
