Sophs Green 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 article or headline that you wrote for that word: e.g. (article summary) The drug Sorafenib appears to cause the pancreas not to function properly.
