Contrast - The difference we perceive between science and poetry may not be as large as that
that we see between fiction and nonfiction, but is certainly one that would appear to be solid.
Poetry is defined by the Oxford English Dictionary as being “imaginative or creative literature in
general” while science is “knowledge acquired through study.” Interestingly, though, these
definitions could very easily be applied to both science and poetry. Looking at Eliot’s The
Wasteland and Darwin’s The Origin of Species it is easy to see where the line blurs.

Compare - Both science and poetry can be, and usually are, creative and imaginative as well as a
representation of knowledge through study. They are subjects linked in the common goal of
understanding the world. Yes, they present themselves as being very different from one another
to the public, but in the end this difference is merely perception based on presentation and pre-
conceived notions. Looking at these two fields as blurred and the same, as we have been
instructed in class, it is easy to see where our pre-conceived notions fail. Poetry and Science are
fundamentally the same.
2. Causes:
 Poor grades can be a large contributing factor for teens to drop out of high school.
 The absence of parent involvement is also a factor that plays a big role in teens dropping out
of high school.
 Work/family needs are another big part of why teens dropout of high school.
Effects:
 Jailing or incarceration can be a very negative affect of dropping out of school.
 Poverty is another harsh reality that comes along with dropping out of high school.
 Unemployment
3. Some of the most common, known causes are: disability
 Genetic conditions (such as Down syndrome, fragile X syndrome and Rhett syndrome)
 Problems during pregnancy
 Problems experienced at birth (for example, a lack of oxygen)
 Health problems (such as whooping cough, measles or meningitis)
 Environmental factors

Effects of disability
Disability affects everyone differently but often those that have grown up with a disability cope better
than those that suddenly find themselves disabled in some capacity. Common effects of a disability may
include:
 Mental health issues including anxiety and depression
 Loss of freedom and independence
 Frustration and anger at having to rely on other people
 Practical problems including transport, choice of activities, accessing buildings
 Unemployment
 Problems with learning and academic study
 Loss of self-esteem and confidence, especially in social situations

4.) Abortion statistics

According to WHO (WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION), every year in the world there
are an estimated 40-50 million abortions. This corresponds to approximately 125,000
abortions per day.

appropriate interventions, which include nutritional counseling, exercise
training, and stress management techniques to improve outcomes for
patients at risk and those who already have common chronic diseases.
