There are several things to consider when (a) explained / explaining why the color of the ocean is blue. First, we must consider the oceans ability to absorb and reflect the various colors of the spectrum differently. Secondly, we must consider the different particles in ocean water. The various colors of the light spectrum travel through different substances differently depending on the composition of each substance. For instance, blue light travels into the ocean water, while red light is absorbed quickly. Perhaps it would be more accurate to say that the molecules in the ocean absorb blue light at first, but then, unlike red light, the blue light is quickly resent and (b) dispersing / dispersed everywhere.
However, occasionally the ocean looks green. In such a situation, there is usually a great amount of vegetation in the water. What happens is that the blue light waves combine with the yellow tissue of the plants to produce the color green.

Therefore, blue light mostly disappears as it travels back from the ocean. But it is the red light that the ocean reflects back into our eyes. As a result, it is mostly blue light that travels back into our eyes. Otherwise, our eyes can only detect blue light from the ocean. However, red light remains longer in the ocean compared to blue light.

Canada is heaven for fishermen. There are so many freshwater lakes, rivers and streams that the opportunities to fish are simply endless. (a) Moreover, as Canada is surrounded by oceans on three sides, there are plentiful opportunities for saltwater fishing. (b) Fishing in Canada is split into two groups: Lake Water Fishing and Salt Water Fishing; each type of fishing is a totally different sport. (c) But the number of lakes and the vast ocean shoreline would not make Canada a fishermans paradise if it were not for the great number of fish. Due to this, the sport fishing industry in Canada has grown a lot. (d) As fishing tourism is growing at a great pace, the supporting shops and other establishments are booming as well.

Recent research has shown that, compared to slim people, overweight people are at an increased risk of dying in car accidents. Those who weigh 95 kilograms or more are more likely to die in road fatalities according to the study. One insurance company wants to charge overweight car drivers higher premiums. The company argues that men already pay higher premiums than women because they are at a higher risk of having accidents. In other words, being at a higher risk means men cost insurance companies more because they make more accident claims. Since the research has recently shown that overweight people also are at a higher risk, come into effect yet. It is still, however, an idea that hasnt

Passage
Body language is the meaning behind the words or the unspoken language. Surprisingly, studies show that only 10 percent of our communication is verbal. The majority of communication is unspoken. There are some basic interpretations that can help with the understanding of these unspoken meanings. If you dont look someone in the eyes while speaking, this can be interpreted as dishonesty or hiding something. Likewise, shifting eye movements or rapid changing of direction can translate similarly. Other people can tell what type of attitude you have by your attention span. Sometimes you quickly lose focus on the other person or the length of time you focus wanders. This shows through and makes you seem (a) disinteresting / disinterested , (b) boring / bored , and possibly even (c) uncared / uncaring . Try not to fold your arms or cross your legs. This can be seen as defensive or an end to the conversation. So have arms hang freely or hold a glass of water or note-taking instruments while communicating with others. Be open with open arms.

(A) As a result, many people dont believe in religion since it cannot be proven to them. Having blind faith in things without a certain amount of proof goes against basic human nature. (B) People are often like the blind man. There are many things in life that simply cannot (a) prove / be proven , and those things require us to simply believe in them. For example, lets take the concept of God. God is a belief for us since we really cannot prove that he or she exists. (C) Belief is only necessary for those things we do not know. A (b) sighting / sighted man doesnt have to believe in the color red. He has eaten a red apple. It has been proven to him that the color red exists. But how do you prove the existence of the color red to a blind man? It simply cannot be proven to him that such a thing as red exists since he cannot experience it. Therefore he must believe in it. Red is a belief for the blind man.

My friends in New York cant believe it! In Florida, there are flamingos on the golf courses and in the public parks! But this is only one example, I could list hundreds more. People are always face-to-face with wildlife wherever they go in Florida. It is one of the most fascinating places for nature lovers. Both Floridas plant life and wildlife are surprisingly diverse and Florida is the most ecologically diverse state after Hawaii and California. Florida consists of low, flat land that gently slopes to the ocean on the east and west sides. The lowland is the reason for the varied ecosystem in Florida. The land was greatly affected by the changing ocean levels over the centuries. The ocean tides along with the winds have left their marks in the form of sand dunes, lagoons and isolated islands.

It was reported that about 250 million children (people under the age of 18) are child laborers. Child labor can be defined in many ways depending on who makes the definition. In other words, there is no concrete or solid definition of child labor. Some people view the negative aspects of child labor. In many cases, child laborers work in awful and often horrible conditions. Moreover, they cannot go to school and their childhood is being thrown away. However, some point out an aspect that is not necessarily negative. Some jobs are not necessarily dangerous for children. And (a) they do not interfere with their education. These jobs can provide opportunities for (b) them to get a sense of responsibility while earning money.

Even when were so full and were about to burst, we still look for dessert. We need a bite of cake or candy at the end of the meal to make it perfect. The English word dessert came from a French word desservir which means to clean up after a meal. Centuries ago, the custom was to have fruits and nuts for dessert. It gradually turned into desserts. Normally, desserts are sweet food. Before the development of the sugar industry in the 19th century, sweets used to be out of reach for the middle class. It was a rare holiday delicacy. Only the aristocracy could afford sweet dishes in their meals.

Following the formation of the Earth, its temperature increased at a great pace because it was being struck by many planetesimals in the solar system. This event is known as the Great Bombardment. As the temperature rose, heavier elements such as iron and nickel sank below the Earths surface, whereas lighter elements remained close to the surface. As a result of this displacement of elements, the Earth is composed of different layers. Scientists distinguish four layers. The inner

core is made up of iron and nickel in an almost liquid state since it is so hot. The outer core is also made up of iron and nickel, but it is not as hot as the inner core so these elements are in
solid form. The mantle is the next layer, and it is composed of light elements such as silicon, oxygen and magnesium. The mantle is covered by the crust which is made up of the lightest elements on Earth. The mantle is thicker on the

You can travel to an endless number of stars, moons and planets using Galaxiki software with its innovative 2D map. The software is simple to use and popular among people with a general interest in space as well as science fiction addicts. The orbits of the planets can be controlled by the software. Furthermore, it can also control the atmospheric conditions on each planet and some planets have acceptable atmospheres . The members of this online community can also make up their own alien creatures with unique histories, but once they start writing the history of one community they must remember to make it consistent with the history of other communities. As one continues writing the history, this becomes harder and harder to do. Traveling between communities within a small amount of time is possible since you can travel faster than the speed of light. The different creatures can thus visit one another.

Nothing is more true than the saying, You are what you eat. To perform to your best, you have to put the right foods into your body. Slim athletes dont eat fatty burgers. While many people pledge to begin eating healthy foods, easy enough, but changing eating habits when lifestyles dont change is never easy to do. When youre tired after work, fast food is just so easy. After that fast food dinner, you have some ice cream and chips in front of the boob tube. Its just so easy; thats your lifestyle. So you really have to be dedicated and have a strong mind to change and make healthier and more nutritious choices.

Going to watch a film at the local cinema is a favorite pastime of many people. Before leaving the house, however, you must check if the picture selected is worth the money. In order to choose the right one for your evening, you should get reviews of recently released movies. If you missed the reviews in your local paper, youll be sure to find some on the Internet. You might even find some that your local newspaper wouldnt have. Youll also be able to watch movie trailers on the Internet. By watching the trailers, you will get a good idea whether you want to go and see the movie or not. You should be, however, a little when watching trailers. It could be that the director has chosen the best scenes for the trailer. After youve watched the film, you might be disappointed since there werent any additional fantastic scenes.

Some people cannot remember a five-digit passcode. Others have a photographic memory and can remember specific details of a scene really well. Why do some people have excellent memories while others do not? Is the cause of a poor memory neglect or genetics? Researchers have proven that the way our brain functions is a result of genetics and the environment. It can be said that 50% of our ability to remember relies on genetic sources, while the other 50% is under our control. So there are some that are born better off than others

| | There are several things to consider when explaining why the color of the ocean is blue. First, we must consider the oceans ability to absorb and reflect the various colors of the spectrum differently. Secondly, we must consider the different particles in ocean water. The various colors of the light spectrum travel through different substances differently depending on the composition of each substance. For instance, blue light travels into the ocean water, while red light is absorbed quickly. Perhaps it would be more accurate to say that the molecules in the ocean absorb blue light at first, but then, unlike red light, the blue light is quickly resent and dispersed everywhere. As a result, it is mostly blue light that travels back into our eyes. However, occasionally the ocean looks green. In such a situation, there is usually a great amount of vegetation in the water. What happens is that the blue light waves combine with the yellow tissue of the plants to produce the color green. | |

There are some basic interpretations that can help with the understanding of these unspoken meanings. If you dont look someone in the eyes while speaking, this can be interpreted as dishonesty or hiding something. Likewise, shifting eye movements or rapid changing of direction can translate similarly. Other people can tell what type of attitude you have by your attention span. Sometimes you quickly lose focus on the other person or the length of time you focus wanders. This shows through and makes you seem disinterested, bored, and possibly even uncaring. Try not to fold your arms or cross your legs. This can be seen as defensive or an end to the conversation. So have arms hang freely or hold a glass of water or note-taking instruments while communicating with others. Be open with open arms. | |

| | It was reported that about 250 million children (people under the age of 18) are child laborers. Child labor can be defined in many ways depending on who makes the definition. In other words, there is no concrete or solid definition of child labor. Some people view the negative aspects of child labor. In many cases, child laborers work in awful and often horrible conditions. Moreover, they cannot go to school and their childhood is being thrown away. However, some point out an aspect that is not necessarily negative. Some jobs are not necessarily dangerous for children. And they do not interfere with their education. These jobs can provide opportunities for them to get a sense of responsibility while earning money. | |

| | Even when were so full and were about to burst, we still look for dessert. We need a bite of cake or candy at the end of the meal to make it perfect. The English word dessert came from a French word desservir which means to clean up after a meal. Centuries ago, the custom was to have fruits and nuts for dessert. It gradually turned into desserts. Normally, desserts are sweet food. But sweet dishes for dessert are a comparatively new choice. Before the development of the sugar industry in the 19th century, sweets used to be out of reach for the middle class. It was a rare holiday delicacy. Only the aristocracy could afford sweet dishes in their meals. | |

Since many of them use lengthy and tedious forms, it takes a huge amount of time for survey takers to complete the forms. And they often leave the surveys incomplete. They also hide or misrepresent the terms of the contract to people. As a result, many survey takers dont find out until they are almost finished that they will be getting a small sum of money. | |

<not as ~ as> .
| | Following the formation of the Earth, its temperature increased at a great pace because it was being struck by many planetesimals in the solar system. This event is known as the Great Bombardment. As the temperature rose, heavier elements such as iron and nickel sank below the Earths surface, whereas lighter elements remained close to the surface. As a result of this displacement of elements, the Earth is composed of different layers. Scientists distinguish four layers. The inner core is made up of iron and nickel in an almost liquid state since it is so hot. The outer core is also made up of iron and nickel, but it is not as hot as the inner core so these elements are in solid form. The mantle is the next layer, and it is composed of light elements such as silicon, oxygen and magnesium. The mantle is covered by the crust which is made up of the lightest elements on Earth. The mantle is thicker on the continents than the oceans. | |

Nothing is more true than the saying, You are what you eat. To perform to your best, you have to put the right foods into your body. Slim athletes dont eat fatty burgers. While many people pledge to begin eating healthy foods, few have the nerve to carry through for any length of time. It seems easy enough, but changing eating habits when lifestyles dont change is never easy to do. When youre tired after work, fast food is just so easy. After that fast food dinner, you have some ice cream and chips in front of the boob tube. Its just so easy; thats your lifestyle. So you really have to be dedicated and have a strong mind to change and make healthier and more nutritious choices. | |

You will be surprised to learn that there are many sources of indoor air pollution. Oil, gas and cigarettes pollute the air with toxic smoke. And building supplies such as paint and furnishings such as carpet and some pressed wood furniture give off chemicals which are also unhealthy. Air conditioners are also the source of pollution. Almost everything that is manmade will emit some kind of chemical which isnt good for us. Many homes are designed to let in and out as little outside air as possible. Unless they are built with special mechanical means of ventilation, these homes have unhealthy levels of pollutants in the air which are raising rates of allergies, asthma, colds and other viral diseases. | |
