Answer:
Endeavour FundWounded Servicemen / VetsExplanation:
Henry Worsley was attempting a solo crossing of Antarctica in a 1,000 mile journey as he aimed to raise money for the Endeavour Fund.
Sadly he died before he could finish after having completed 970 miles of the journey. His journey and death sparked such an interest however, that over £300,000 was raised for the fund.
The Endeavour Fund is a charity that aims to help wounded servicemen/ vets with rehabilitation so that they are able to re-engage in physical activity like sports that they had become unable to do as a result of the injuries they sustained whilst in the military.

Overfishing is the cause of an upcoming fish shortage. Overfishing occurs when more fish are caught than the population can replace through
natural reproduction, according to the World Wildlife Foundation. Once this occurs, the species is no longer "sustainable." While there will
probably never be a time when we do not have fish, there could come a time when we no longer have enough fish. The cause of this fish shortage
is overfishing.
Which of the following options would be the most effective hook?
O There are three main reasons why we are facing a fish shortage in the near future.
The world faces a calamitous food crisis if we do not stop overfishing.
O Large factory ships use GPS and sonar to locate large schools of their target fish.
O Catching fish that are too young, the use of large factory ships, and a lack of catch limits are big threats to ocean life.
Answer:
The world faces a calamitous food crisis if we do not stop overfishing
Explanation:
According to the given excerpt, it is narrated that overfishing is the process of fishing more than the natural process can sufficiently replace.
Therefore, the option that would be the most effective hook to a reader about the dangers of overfishing would be "The world faces a calamitous food crisis if we do not stop overfishing"

Is it more acceptable for women to serve in the military today? Why or why not?
Answer
No..
Explanation:
Women who serve in the military today differ in some ways from the men that they serve alongside. The current active-duty female force is more racially diverse than the male force. Today's military women are less likely than men to be married and less likely to serve in a combat zone.
Answer:
I don't think it is MORE acceptable per say, it has always been acceptable in my mind. In society, yes it is. It has become more widely spread for women to be in the military, and more common, that if you went to a military base there will most likely be lines of women there training or doing their job.
Explanation:

7. This is a metaphor because no one can be a firework.

Explanation:
In the new psychology of leadership, what do the authors say is the most important characteristic of an effective leader?
Answer:
OD. A shared identity of the group.
Explanation:
In the article "The New Psychology of Leadership", authors Stephen D. Reicher, Michael J. Platow, and S. Alexander Haslam delves into what makes an individual a good leader. They focus on what makes a leader and how the relationship with the common people contributes to the effectiveness of the leader's actions.
According to them, previous 'elements' that make a person a good leader were charisma, a good speaker, or someone who is intelligent. But recent studies seem to make a change in how a leader is determined. The article states "the best leaders are prototypical of the group--they not only seem to belong to it but also exemplify what makes the group distinct from and superior to rival groups." This means that an individual who has a connection and affinity to the people will have a stronger sense of relativity to the masses. And in that connection, he/she will be able to understand what they are going through and be more understanding of their situation.
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
