A central idea in the article about the life of Susan Butcher is that a childhood passion for animals and the outdoors became the focus of her entire life. The author develops this idea by describing some important events of Butcher's life and by inserting descriptions of intense moments in her Iditarod racing experiences. In addition to explaining how Butcher became interested in dog racing as a teen, the author gives a history lesson about how the famous Iditarod race actually grew out of a real event. When Butcher learned of the Iditarod story, she decided to race in the modern Iditarod race and began training herself and her dogs. The author also explains how Butcher educated herself with veterinary classes in order to care for sled dogs and other animals, how she lived independently in Alaska for a time working hard to train herself and her dogs to build strength and endurance, and how her experiences with her dogs taught her about the importance of building trust with her animals as well as about the dangers of racing. The author also explains how Butcher's determination helped her become a winner. The descriptions of hardships such as living alone in the Alaskan wild show that Butcher was an extraordinary person who focused in achieving her goal of racing in the Iditarod. The author keeps the reader interested by adding descriptions of close calls she experienced, like the one when her dog Tekla disobeyed her command but kept her from sliding into icy waters. The article includes information about the times Butcher did not win the Iditarod but kept racing, and that shows her determination to follow her passion. Another way the writer develops the central idea is to insert a story about a time Butcher was nearly drowned. The article begins with a dramatic description of Butcher's experience of falling through ice into cold water with her dogs. But only part of the story is told then. More of it is told later in the article after the reader has lots of background information about dog-sled racing and about Butcher's years of preparation for the Iditarod. The article ends with another story that happened after Butcher died from leukemia in 2006. We learn that her daughter drove Butcher's team of dogs in the 2007 race as an honorary musher in memory of her mother. So this shows how a person's passion can leave an impression on other people.

hi i need help with landlady. my teacher wants me to answer 10 answers "for each description given-decide if it is specific only to the video, the story or includes in both the story and the video. basically you are categorizing similarities and differences."​

As you write your business letter and memo, be sure to include all the proper elements. Refer to the list below as you begin writing. Remember, before you begin writing, be sure to choose which business where you want your letter received, and choose a person for which you'll write a memo.

Date--indicates the date the letter was written
Sender's address--considered an optional feature; it includes the address of the sender. It does not list the sender's name or position.
Inside address--includes the name of the person who will receive the letter and the complete address. Include the person's title such as Dr., Mr., or Ms. when unaware of a woman's title preference.
Greeting/salutation--includes the title and full name, followed by a colon
Body--provides details of the purpose for the letter. The first paragraph introduces the main idea. The middle of the letter or second paragraph explains the main idea. The end or last paragraph summarizes the main purpose for the letter and explains any required action. The writer must weigh the purpose for the letter against the length of the final copy of the letter. If the writer is seeking information or a job, then the letter is generally three paragraphs in length. It should not be too long or troublesome to read, but if the letter conveys specific information that the reader requested or needs, it may be longer.
Closing--"Sincerely" is the standard closing. It should be brief and followed by a comma.
Signature--The signature includes the signed and printed name of the writer.
Notations--includes additional information, depending on the purpose of the letter
enclosures: provides a signal that other material is included with the letter
continued pages: informs the reader that the letter extends beyond one page
typist's initials: tells the reader who typed the letter; original writers do not include initials.
cc: When carbon copies were used to create duplicates, cc indicated that a carbon copy was made and other people would receive the same letter. Today, the process of copying documents has certainly changed, but the name means the same.
