Bullying and the Game of Soccer (1) Most people think that soccer is a civilized sport compared to a rough one like football, for example. (2) There is no tackling, the public thinking the game is tame. (3)Yet sometimes aggressive coaches, opponents, and even teammates can be referred to as bullies.

(4) What's really weird is that most bullies would be horrified to be called a bully it would come as a total shock. (5) Bullying is an abuse of power by someone who is stronger physically, verbally, mentally and even socially. (6) This abuse usually targets someone weaker (physically or mentally) or someone who can’t block the bullies mind games or cruel intentions. (7) So why does bullying exist? (8) Why are some kids subjected to bullying within the dynamics of the competition? (9) Even worse, why are some kids bullied by their own teammates?

(10) Coaches can be aggressive. (11) They may speak inappropriately or yell at refferees and other coaches if they are unhappy with the gameplay or calls. (12) This can create a real negative atmosphere for the team.

(13) Opponent’s on the field can be particularly hurtful both emotionally and physically. (14) In soccer, a foul is only called if the ref actually sees the infraction. (15) Players know this, and sometimes they take advantage of this. (16) They also sometimes taunt and make fun of other players.

(17) The most unfortunate form of bullying can come from your own teammates. (18) Players may taunt each other in practice or even on game day. (19) Sometimes, players can gang up and bully a player too. (20) There may be social pressures within a team that contribute to the bullying.

(21) Whether it is coming from other players or adults, bullying is a problem across many sports, even soccer.

Which word best describes the author's tone in this excerpt from "that spot" by jack london? i don’t think much of stephen mackaye any more, though i used to swear by him. i know that in those days i loved him more than my own brother. if ever i meet stephen mackaye again, i shall not be responsible for my actions. it passes beyond me that a man with whom i shared food and blanket, and with whom i mushed over the chilcoot trail, should turn out the way he did. i always sized steve up as a square man, a kindly comrade, without an iota of anything vindictive or malicious in his nature. i shall never trust my judgment in men again. why, i nursed that man through typhoid fever; we starved together on the headwaters of the stewart; and he saved my life on the little salmon. and now, after the years we were together, all i can say of stephen mackaye is that he is the meanest man i ever knew. a. excited b. ironic c. indignant d. playful

Arrange the sentences below to form a logical paragraph. an experienced rock climber knows that it takes a combination of knowledge and preparation to perform a successful climb. a successful climb begins with a proper foothold, carefully placing each foot on a ledge or crack then reaching for a solid hold, and finally pushing off. in addition to a proper foothold, a climber must be careful to check the integrity of the rock before stepping because it has to be solid clear through. a veteran climber judges the integrity of the rock and chooses not to climb on conglomerates, packed clay with lots of little rocks. but, such knowledge of rock is not the only preparation a skilled climber needs; equally important is the correct equipment. with these tools, knowledge of rock composition and equipment safety, a climber may experience many safe and enjoyable climbs.
