Sophs Blue Class Vocab Unit 4: Due Monday Oct. 28







Searching topics in Google for "news" will provide at an instant the most recent articles from reliable media resources. When you begin your research paper in the winter, using this search tool will be a MUST. 
For this homework assignment, I want you to work with Google News. 
Rows 1-3 will work with words 1-10; rows 4-6 will work with words 11-20.
Type in each of your ten vocabulary words into the Google News search to find an article that uses the word. Read the sentence or headline in which each word is found. Determine how (or if) the word is used correctly in the article . If it is, then type (don't copy and paste) JUST the sentence or headline for each word into the comment box, bolding your vocab word.e.g Pancreatic Atrophy: Adverse Effect of Long-Term Sorafenib Use
In addition, read just ONE entire article of the ten that you have found. Briefly summarize the main point of the artcle or headline that you wrote for that word: e.g. (article summary) The drug Sorafenib appears to cause the pancreas not to function properly.

13) Popular because of his jocular, slightly self-deprecating remarks, he (Sir Roger Moore) never seems to take himself too seriously.
14) British politicians have a “ludicrous” bias towards wealthy pensioners who should be stripped of their right to free travel and other benefits, the former Cabinet secretary has suggested.
15) Morbidity and mordant behaviour will only paralyse the nation.
16) The SNP, however, must grasp the nettle and demand that the oil production taking place in Scotland comes under the auspices of the Scottish Government.
17) Other statewide Republican candidates (there aren’t a lot of Democrats on the roster yet) share Carter’s pecuniary distress, and they have time to change their minds, too.
18) Jewish alumni from Stanford should also know about the administration’s pusillanimous approach to discriminating against Jews who want peace in the Middle East that includes Israel’s existence.
19) A new recumbent exercise bike was released at the start of October (2013) and the early feedback has been very positive on the whole, according to one exercise review site.
20) In hemmed-in situations, you must resort to stratagem.

Summary (recumbent):
At the beginning of this month, the Schwinn 270, a new exercise bike, was released and people love it. There is a new and improved screen that displays thirteen sets of data from a workout perspective. The workouts are designed to be smooth, quiet, and comfortable with a built in cooling fan, and a padded seat. All of the features have been updated to please even the most elite athletes, and people are reacting well to it.
