Passive voice

Sentences can be active or passive. Therefore, tenses also have "active forms" and "passive forms."

Passive Form

In passive sentences, the thing receiving the action is the subject of the sentence and the thing doing the action is optionally included
near the end of the sentence. You can use the passive form if you think that the thing receiving the action is more important or should
be emphasized. You can also use the passive form if you do not know who is doing the action or if you do not want to mention who is
doing the action.

[Thing receiving action] + [be] + [past participle of verb] + [by] + [thing doing action]

Superlatives

Introduction

Superlatives are special forms of adjectives. They are used to compare more than two things. Generally, superlatives are formed
using -est.

1. Forming superlatives
 How these forms are created depends on how many syllables there are in the adjective. Syllables are like “sound beats”. For
instance, “sing” contains one syllable, but “singing” contains two — sing and ing. Here are the rules:

Adjective form Superlative

Only one syllable, ending in E. Examples: wide, fine, cute Add -st: widest, finest, cutest

Only one syllable, with one vowel and one consonant at the end. Examples: Double the consonant, and add -est: hottest, biggest,
hot, big, fat fattest

Only one syllable, with more than one vowel or more than one consonant at
Add -est: lightest, neatest, fastest
the end. Examples: light, neat, fast

Two syllables, ending in Y. Examples: happy, silly, lonely Change y to i, then add -est: happiest, silliest, loneliest

Two syllables or more, not ending in Y. Examples: modern, interesting, Use “most” before the adjective: most modern, most
beautiful interesting, most beautiful

2. How to use superlatives

Superlatives are used to compare more than two things. Superlative sentences usually use “the”, because there is
only one superlative.
Superlatives
Masami is the tallest in the class.
Yukio is tall, and Jiro is taller, but Masami is the tallest.

Abraham Lincoln

Lincoln warned the South in his Inaugural Address: "In your hands, my dissatisfied fellow countrymen, and not in mine, is the
momentous issue of civil war. The government will not assail you.... You have no oath registered in Heaven to destroy the
government, while I shall have the most solemn one to preserve, protect and defend it."Lincoln thought secession illegal, and was
willing to use force to defend Federal law and the Union. When Confederate batteries fired on Fort Sumter and forced its surrender, he
called on the states for 75,000 volunteers. Four more slave states joined the Confederacy but four remained within the Union. The
Civil War had begun.The son of a Kentucky frontiersman, Lincoln had to struggle for a living and for learning. Five months before
receiving his party's nomination for President, he sketched his life:"I was born Feb. 12, 1809, in Hardin County, Kentucky. My parents
were both born in Virginia, of undistinguished families--second families, perhaps I should say. My mother, who died in my tenth year,
was of a family of the name of Hanks.... My father ... removed from Kentucky to ... Indiana, in my eighth year.... It was a wild region,
with many bears and other wild animals still in the woods. There I grew up.... Of course when I came of age I did not know much. Still
somehow, I could read, write, and cipher ... but that was all."Lincoln made extraordinary efforts to attain knowledge while working on a
farm, splitting rails for fences, and keeping store at New Salem, Illinois. He was a captain in the Black Hawk War, spent eight years in
the Illinois legislature, and rode the circuit of courts for many years. His law partner said of him, "His ambition was a little engine that
knew no rest."He married Mary Todd, and they had four boys, only one of whom lived to maturity. In 1858 Lincoln ran against Stephen
A. Douglas for Senator. He lost the election, but in debating with Douglas he gained a national reputation that won him the Republican
nomination for President in 1860.As President, he built the Republican Party into a strong national organization. Further, he rallied
most of the northern Democrats to the Union cause. On January 1, 1863, he issued the Emancipation Proclamation that declared
forever free those slaves within the Confederacy.Lincoln never let the world forget that the Civil War involved an even larger issue.
This he stated most movingly in dedicating the military cemetery at Gettysburg: "that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not
have died in vain--that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom--and that government of the people, by the people, for
the people, shall not perish from the earth."Lincoln won re-election in 1864, as Union military triumphs heralded an end to the war. In
his planning for peace, the President was flexible and generous, encouraging Southerners to lay down their arms and join speedily in
reunion.The spirit that guided him was clearly that of his Second Inaugural Address, now inscribed on one wall of the Lincoln Memorial
in Washington, D. C.: "With malice toward none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us
strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nation's wounds.... "On Good Friday, April 14, 1865, Lincoln was assassinated at
Ford's Theatre in Washington by John Wilkes Booth, an actor, who somehow thought he was helping the South. The opposite was the
result, for with Lincoln's death, the possibility of peace with magnanimity died.

The Lincoln Memorial

The Lincoln Memorial is an American memorial built to honor the 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln. It is located on
the National Mall in Washington, D.C. The architect was Henry Bacon, the sculptor of the main statue (Abraham Lincoln, 1920)
was Daniel Chester French, and the painter of the interior murals was Jules Guerin. It is one of several monuments built to honor an
American president.
The building is in the form of a Greek Doric temple and contains a large seated sculpture of Abraham Lincoln and inscriptions of two
well-known speeches by Lincoln, The Gettysburg Address and his Second Inaugural Address. The memorial has been the site of many
famous speeches, includingMartin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech, delivered on August 28, 1963 during the rally at the end of
the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.
Like other monuments on the National Mall – including the nearby Vietnam Veterans Memorial, Korean War Veterans Memorial,
and National World War II Memorial – the memorial is administered by the National Park Service under its National Mall and Memorial
Parks group. It has been listed on theNational Register of Historic Places since October 15, 1966. It is open to the public 24 hours a day.
 In 2007, it was ranked seventh on the List of America's Favorite Architecture by the American Institute of Architects.
The Lincoln Memorial, designed after the temples of ancient Greece, is significant as America's foremost memorial to their 16th
president, as a totally original example of neoclassical architecture, and as the formal terminus to the extended National Mall in
accordance with the McMillan Plan for the monumental core of Washington.[2]

Abraham Lincoln has long stood in the minds of the American people as a symbol of honesty, integrity, and humanity. Although a

national monument to him was not raised until the 20th century, demands for a fitting memorial had been voiced since the time of his

death. In 1867, Congress heeded these demands and passed the first of many bills incorporating a commission to erect a monument

to Lincoln. An American, Clark Mills, was chosen to design the structure. His plans reflected the bombastic nationalistic spirit of the

age. His design called for a 70-foot (21 m) structure adorned with six equestrian and 31 pedestrian statues of colossal proportions,

crowned by a 12-foot (3.7 m) statue of Lincoln. However, subscriptions for the project were insufficient and its future collapsed.[2]

The matter lay dormant until the turn of the century, when, under the leadership of Senator Shelby M. Cullom of Illinois, six separate

bills were introduced to Congress for the incorporation of a new memorial commission. The first five bills, proposed in the years 1901,

1902, and 1908, met with defeat; however, the final bill (Senate Bill 9449), introduced on December 13, 1910, passed. The Lincoln

Memorial Commission had its first meeting the following year and President William H. Taft was chosen as president. Progress

continued at a steady pace and by 1913 Congress had approved of the Commission's choice of design and location. However, this

approval was far from unanimous. Many thought that architect Henry Bacon's Greek temple design was far too ostentatious for a man

of Lincoln's humble character. Instead they proposed a simple log cabin shrine. The site too did not go unopposed. The recently

reclaimed land in West Potomac Park was seen by many to be either too swampy or too inaccessible. Other sites, such as Union

Station, were put forth. The Commission stood firm in its recommendation though, feeling that the Potomac Park location, situation on

theWashington Monument-Capitol axis, overlooking the Potomac River and surrounded by open land, was an ideal site. Furthermore,

the Potomac Park site had already been designated in the McMillan Plan of 1901 to be the location of a future monument comparable

to that of the Washington Monument.[2]

With Congressional approval and a $300,000 allocation, the project got underway. On February 12, 1914, an inauspicious dedication

ceremony was conducted and following month the actual construction began. Work progressed steadily according to schedule.

However a few changes did have to be made. The statue of Lincoln, originally designed to be 10 feet (3.0 m) tall, was later enlarged to

19 feet (5.8 m) to prevent it from being dwarfed by its huge chamber. As late as 1920, the decision was made to substitute an open

portal for the bronze and glass grille which was to have guarded the entrance. Despite these changes, the Memorial was finished on

schedule. In a May Day celebration in 1922, Commission president William H. Taft dedicated the Memorial and presented it to

President Warren G. Harding, who accepted it for the American people. Lincoln's only remaining son, 79 year old Robert Todd Lincoln,

was in attendance.[3]

The Memorial was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on October 15, 1966

Rational Numbers

A rational number is a number that can be written as a simple fraction (i.e. as a ratio).

Example 1.5 is a rational number because 1.5 = 3/2 (it can be written as a fraction)

Here are some more examples:

Number As a Fraction Rational?

5 5/1 Yes

1.75 7/4 Yes

 .001 1/1000 Yes

0.111... 1/9 Yes

√2
? NO !
(square root of 2)

Oops! The square root of 2 cannot be written as a simple fraction! And there are many more such numbers, and because they are not
rational they are called Irrational.

Formal Definition of Rational Number

More formally we would say:

A rational number is a number that can be in the form p/q

where p and q are integers and q is not equal to zero.

So, a rational number is:

p/q

Where q is not zero

Examples:

p q p/q =

1 1 1/1 1

1 2 1/2 0.5

55 100 55/100 0.55

1 1000 1/1000 0.001

253 10 253/10 25.3

7 0 7/0 No! "q" can't be zero!

Using Rational Numbers

How to add, subtract, multiply and divide rational numbers

A rational number is a number that can be written as a simple fraction (i.e. as a ratio).

Examples:

Number As a Fraction

5 5/1

1.75 7/4

.001 1/1000
 0.111... 1/9

In general ...

So, a rational number looks like this:

p/q

But q cannot be zero, as that would be dividing by zero.

Introduction to DNA

All animals and plants on Earth share something in common: they all use the same code to grow and function.
This code can be found in bacteria, elephants, oak trees, and humans. It’s the “master plan” for all organisms, like the source code for
a computer program. It’s the reason your toes are on the ends of your feet (where they belong) instead of on your hands or hanging
off the edges of your ears.
This code is called DNA, which is shorthand for Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid. DNA exists as long molecules within the nucleus of
almost every cell in an organism.
DNA is in the form of a twisted ladder that scientists call a double helix.

The rungs of the ladder make up the four-letter DNA code or alphabet: A, T, C, and G.
These alphabet pieces are called bases and they bond together (in base pairs) according to special rules: A always pairs with T, and
C always pairs with G [A–T C–G].
When the DNA code is read by the cell, only one strand of the code is used. The string of letters (or bases) make 3-letter long “words”
and the words make “sentences,” just like the letters, words, and sentences in your science textbook. In DNA, the “sentences” are
called genes. One strand of DNA may contain many genes.
Genes tell the cells how to make other complex molecules called proteins. Cells produce thousands of different proteins that work
together to allow organisms to do all the functions necessary for life.
