Read the following paragraph.

The office of U.S. vice president is the only one in the federal government that straddles two of the three branches of government: the legislative and the executive. Traditionally, however, vice presidents have chosen to focus on either the legislative or the executive duties, not both.


Which two words from the paragraph help explain what "straddles" means?


A only; one

B two; both

C traditionally; focus

D office; duties

Answer:

B) two; both

Explanation:

A straddle strategy is a financial term that refers to two transactions that involve the same securities but have holdings that are offset from one another. One takes a lengthy risk, while the other takes a short one.

Answer: C

Explanation: I feel like they are giving us the hint when one sentence says “however, Vice Presidents have chosen to FOCUS on either the legislative or the executive duties, not both” (hope this helps :D)

The Rock once said, “Don't focus on the pain, focus on the progress” (www.quotespedia.org).In the emotional book, Touching Spirit Bear, by Ben Mikealson. the character Cole Mathews did not focus on the past, he focused on the present."Touching Spirit Bear"the protagonist is Cole Matthews.

Although this is true, later in the same scene Cole cries expressing his emotions which tells the readers that he knows what he did was wrong and deep down he wants to do better and change. In another scene of the book Cole decides to make dinner for everyone. This shows that he has changed and become loyal. He shows that he cares about others and wants to have joy in his life, he worked hard and showed that he respected others. Another way that shows Cole's improvements is when he hugs his mom. He is showing her that he cares and that he has changed into a better person.
