------------------------------------------------
On November 3, 2020, Americans will head to the polls and vote. Here is an overview of two parts of the election process.
What's the 2020 election all about?
This election's main event is choosing who will hold the next presidential term. Voters will also decide which party will control the U.S. Congress for the next two years and which party dominates in state legislatures and governorships. Still, the big question is whether President Donald Trump can win reelection, so all eyes are on the Democrats and the candidate they will nominate to take on Trump.
In 2016, Trump's election was an unexpected victory over Democrat Hillary Clinton. Trump won swing states, or states that do not have a clear party alignment. This included Florida and North Carolina. Some blue states, or those that historically vote Democrat, turned red for Republican, including Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan. In 2020, however, the Democratic candidate will be different, the issues are different, and the electorate, or pool of American voters, has changed.
Democrats will try to defend their majority in the House of Representatives, where all 435 seats are up for election. They will also try to take control of the Senate, where 34 of the 100 seats will be voted on. Elections will also be held at the local and state level, including 11 elections for governor.
Who can vote?
There are more than 250 million people of voting age in the United States in 2020. That electorate will be different from the one in 2016. The voters will be more racially diverse and younger than ever. They will consist of about 33 percent non-white voters and 10 percent Generation Z voters, or those between the ages of 18 and 23.
In 2016, about 42 percent of Americans who were able to vote decided not to or were blocked from voting. However, the 2018 midterm elections saw a huge surge in voter turnout. This could mean the 2020 elections could see an expanded electorate. At the same time, experts say efforts to block voters may have hindered Democrats in 2018, and may continue to be an obstacle in the upcoming vote.

Cheryl has written an essay for her English class. Read Cheryl's rough draft then answer the questions that follow.
An Adventure of a Lifetime
(1) More and more people are starting to look in places other than their chosen career paths to find meaning and satisfaction in life, and one of the most popular
ways folks are doing this is through volunteerism. (2) One specific kind of volunteerism, though, is becoming increasingly popular with people of all ages and stages
in life—volunteer vacations. (3) This kind of vacation, one where the traveler pays her own way and volunteers her time and efforts while on the trip, is being
embraced by people all over the world. (4) The best thing about volunteer vacations is that not only does the traveler get to escape her familiar surroundings and
see new sights, but she also comes home knowing that she has done something. (5) That knowledge brings a kind of satisfaction that a regular vacation cannot
deliver.
(6) Volunteer vacations take travelers almost anywhere across the globe to work on a huge selection of causes. (7) Worried about the elephants in Sri Lanka? (8)
Book a trip to its capital, Colombo, and journey to an elephant sanctuary. (9) Concerned about families living in poverty in Costa Rica? (10) Bring your whole family
down to help build new homes and learn a little Spanish while doing so. (11) Volunteer vacations can take willing helpers to the farthest reaches and most exotic
locations—some luxurious resorts are situated in areas that are steeped in poverty, so vacationers willing to spend half their time working can visit such places in
beautiful countries such as Bali, Mexico, and Brazil. (12) There is almost no limit to where adventurers can go.
(13) Perhaps the most compelling reason to consider a volunteer vacation is the feeling of intrinsic happiness and satisfaction of doing important, helpful work. (14)
Even if a volunteer cannot stay in the location long enough to see a project to its completion, just knowing that one’s work has helped people in need, brought vital
resources to folks who needed it, or helped to save endangered plants or animals brings a kind of pride and sense of meaning that simply spending money to lie by a
pool could never deliver. (15) This alone is part of what has caused volunteer vacations to become awesomely popular across the globe.
(16) There may be no better feeling than being able to visit an exotic location, learn something new, and return home knowing that one’s efforts have helped to
change the world. (17) Because the whole goal behind a vacation is to escape one’s usual, familiar surroundings and refuel, volunteer vacations seem like a win-win
situation with a promise of some kind of success for both the volunteer and those helped by the work. (18) For these reasons, a volunteer vacation is an adventure of
a lifetime.
1) Cheryl needs to provide the source material she used for writing her essay. Which is the correct way to write a bibliography entry for the magazine she used?

“Vacation Volunteers,” by Kelsey Miller, tells about volunteer vacation options (Easy Travels Monthly magazine).
2) What is the best way to rewrite sentence 5?
Old enough to enter the ring and finally qualified enough and with my very own horse, I was finally, here.
And, finally, now, I was old enough to enter the ring and finally qualified enough and with my very own horse.
And now here I was, finally old enough to enter the ring, finally qualified enough, and with my very own horse.

Is this a good fable
The Fox and The Four Deer
By: Christian Steele
Once upon a time, there were 4 deer. Chase, Starbuck, Hurricane, and, Willow. They were walking when a fox started chasing them. The 4 deer always bragged that they were the swiftest in the land. And today was their chance to show everybody just how fast they were. They were winning the race until they started acting too cocky. The fox was starting to gain speed and catch up to the 4 deer. He ate one of the 4 deer. The other 3 ran faster than before. Now they were in grave danger. And they got away before he could get them. Their mom always told them they should watch what they say. The 3 learned a valuable lesson: don’t lie when you’re not really fast or you may end up losing your life or your siblings’ lives.
THE END!
Answer: It would be a bit better if you change the fox to a wolf. A fox will prey on much smaller animals, and in classic fables, the fox is sly and cunning.
A wolf will prey on deer, and in classic fables, is the predator, and is the symbol or agent that teaches about the danger that comes from not paying attention to common sense. (Like bragging about things that aren't true around someone who knows better.)

She then delivered herself of a speech, to the following effect:—addressing herself to me, she said, "You devil! You yellow devil! it was you that put it into the heads of Henry and John to run away. But for you, you long-legged mulatto devil! Henry nor John would never have thought of such a thing." I made no reply, and was immediately hurried off towards St. Michael's.
