Subject: Request for a zoo trip.

Respected Sir,

I, on behalf of the students of our school, would like to put a request that we want you to consider. It's been a year since the last trip and with the academic year coming to an end in some weeks, it would be nice if we could take the school's annual excursion trip now.

Considering the time we have left before the main exams, this seems to be the only free time we would have to relax. And also, this trip will give the students some respite from the stress and busy schedule of school activities. And the students have also been looking forward to the time we could take the trip. This will allow the students to wind down and have time to enjoy themselves before the stress of the exams comes over in a couple of weeks.

And for this year’s trip, we would also like to suggest that we visit the zoo as there are several animals newly brought. It’s been more than 5 years that we have taken a trip to the zoo. Also, many of our students love animals and would like to learn more about them. This will give us a chance to do that while also providing fun-time and learning at the same time.  

It is our utmost request if you could allow us to take that trip.

Thank you.

Respectfully yours,

Sushma Patel

How does one write an attributive tag

Identify the counter position to this argument. School days should start later so students are more alert in school. Students are only getting six to seven hours sleep a night when they should be getting nine to ten hours. Students who drive to school would be more alert, thus cutting down on accidents. Students would not be able to work in after-school jobs if schools had a later start time.

What Do You Do With A Lost Unicorn? Written by Katie Thompson-Chapter 3

By the time we have managed to pull the now snoring unicorn out onto the driveway, the color in Joe’s face completely gone. “How…Where…Did this thing come from?” he asks, panting.
“What, afraid it’s real after all?” I ask.
He looks up at me and offers a half-smile. “Who wants unicorns to be real if they look like that?”
I hide a laugh. “Well…Now we just have to figure out how to wake it up.” I poke it a few times with my foot, trying to keep some distance. It just keeps snoring.
Joe shrugs and bends down next to its ugly face and starts jiggling its shoulder, like he’s trying to wake up a very old uncle.
Suddenly its eyes open wide, and with an unbelievable grace, it stands upright. Joe jumps away to give it space, and I just keep staring at it. It walks over to the desert-style landscaping of my neighbor’s side yard and being perusing for its breakfast.
“That thing’s a lot more agile than I imagined it would be,” Joe says. We both stare at it as it saunters around, pulling up the grassy weeds from between the rock mulch. “So…that’s a unicorn.”
I look up at Joe and he's got this silly grin on his face. It's just so 'Joe' that I giggle. “Do you believe that's what it is yet?” I ask.
“I could if I wanted to,” he replied.
I looked up at him, questioning.
“That thing,” he points to the unicorn. “I could believe it was if I wanted to.”
The unicorn seems to have decided that it isn’t going to find anything worth eating here and starts to walk down the sloping back yard to the next street. It looks almost like it belongs there, like a stray deer who often grazes around this part of town when no person is awake or watching. When it disappears from our sight, I feel like a ton of responsibility has been lifted from me.
The whole morning seems almost trivial. “Well,” I say, “I guess that is that?”
Joe shrugs, checks his watch, and motions toward the bus stop. “We should get going,” he says. I grab my bag, and we walk down the driveway.
“I don't know if that thing was a unicorn or not,” he says, looking up into the sky like he might see a dragon flying around to confirm my claim. “But I'm glad you called me this morning.”
“Sorry I was…not very nice,” I say, hesitating.
He laughs a little but keeps looking around. Then with a huge gulp of air, “Do you believe we could be friends again? Like, real friends again? Because I gotta say, I really do miss you, Anna.”
I smile, remembering what he said earlier and reply, “I believe we could if we wanted to.”
This time he looks over at me. “…And?”
“And I really hope we want to.”

What is the main problem in this chapter of the story?

a) Joe is completely uninterested in being friends with Anna again, but won't say why.
b) When Joe asks Anna to be his friend, she becomes even more uncomfortable and says no.
c) Even though she feels a little better, Anna still isn't sure what Joe is thinking about their friendship.
d) The sleeping unicorn is very angry when it wakes up, and it starts ruining the neighbor's yard.
