I hopped on one foot WHILE I pulled off the wet sock. coordinating conjunction subordinating conjunction correlative conjunction
Answer:
Subordinating conjunction.
Explanation:
A subordinating conjunction is a conjunction that not only joins two sentences together but also acts as the link for the two clauses in such a way that the informative value of the whole sentence is made whole. This type of conjunction links a dependent clause with an independent clause.
In the sentence "I hopped on one foot while I pulled off the wet sock", the word "WHILE" acts as the subordinating conjunction. It helps join the two clauses together and also adds informational value to the first clause.
Thus, the correct answer is a subordinating conjunction.

Read the excerpt from “Tools of the Spymaster."
Both the British and the Americans frequently used horseback riders to carry messages, and both sides tried to capture the riders and get the messages. The rider who lost one of Washington's important messages was Tallmadge himself. It happened when Tallmadge and some of his men were attacked by British troops near the Connecticut–New York border. Tallmadge escaped unharmed but lost a saddlebag full of secret papers.
Luckily, Tallmadge's code did not fall into British hands. But among the papers was a letter from Washington in which he carelessly gave the name and address of an agent, George Higday, saying that he was a man who would probably "convey intelligence to me." Higday was arrested, but he had managed to destroy all evidence of spying. That move probably saved him from hanging.
Which statement best expresses the central idea of the excerpt?
Good spies know to destroy evidence in case they are arrested.
George Higday could have been hanged for spying.
Losing secret papers to the enemy could have serious consequences.
George Washington was not good at writing letters in code.

Answer:

This is in response to the news titled “Rizal yet to get travel documents” dated March 17. It is unfortunate that Tek Nath Rizal, known as the father of the Bhutanese democracy movement, could not go to Geneva to attend the UN Commission for Human Rights meeting as the Nepal government could not provide him with necessary travel documents. He and two other Bhutanese human rights activists were invited by Lutheran World Federation. Nepal has not granted him political asylum till date for which he had applied in October last year. It sounds mysterious why Nepal deliberately fails to do so if it sincerely wants to solve the long protracted crisis. Granting Rizal the refugee status and travel document would not add any extra burden for Nepal, rather it would unleash Nepal from the burden of raising their concerns in the international arena. Who else could present the concerns and problems of the refugees better than Rizal?

Can someone translate this into dummy form: (20 POINTS)
A weather pattern occurs when the weather stays the same for days or weeks at
a time. The patterns of weather are tied to the four seasons: summer, winter,
spring, and fall. There are a few different weather patterns that you may already
know about, such as hot and dry, wet and rainy, or cold. Average weather patterns
can be extracted from weather data recorded over time. The consistent behavior
of weather over such periods is known as climate. However, this behavior is not
always uniform; the usual weather pattern deviates from its typical course. These
variations from the normal are expected and have recognizable short-term
fluctuations in the weather.
Answer:
1. When the weather stays the same for a period of time, such as days or weeks, it is called a weather pattern.
2. The weather patterns depend on the 4 seasons.
3. Weather pattern examples include hot and dry, wet and rainly, and/or cold.
4. When you want to find the average of the weather pattern, you have to find the data from weather patterns over time.
5. Sometimes, weather patterns are not always the same, they can change.
6. The changes in the weather patterns have short-term changes in the weather.
