Answers

Answer:

Jellyfish blooms, which were already bad enough, can even affect the political stability of a country. A power plant in the Philippines was shut off after the system was clogged by jellyfish and because of it, thousands of people were without electricity. The Philippine citizens were so upset that there was nearly a political upheaval in the country. What can be done about all these disruptions? These blooms affect many different countries and the effects are devastating.

(Is this good or do I need to explain because I am a little confused)

Answer:

Moreover, jellyfish blooms can even affect the political stability of a country. This is true because a power plant in the Philippines was shut off after the system was clogged by jellyfish, and because of it, thousands of people were without lights or electricity. The Philippine citizens were so angry that there was nearly a political upheaval in the country. What can be done about all these problems? These blooms affect many countries, and the effects are devastating. Not to worry, there are some possible solutions to these blooms. People have come up with ideas like eating the jellyfish or even getting a different species of jellyfish to eat the jellyfish that are causing these blooms.

I changed some of the words in my paragraph to make it my own and combined sentences to make the writing sound smoother. I even added more transition words and made sure to correct any errors in my punctuation.

Talk to a parent or another trusted adult about why libraries
are good for your community. Then write a paragraph about
why you think libraries are important. Edit your paragraph to
make sure you capitalize proper nouns.

Answers

Answer:

Very important

Explanation:

I believe libraries are very important because they bring knowledge and have been around for a long time. Even though we have millions of answers at our fingertips, libraries store much information that isn't on the internet or is easier to gather through books. Libraries are essential in communities for lower-income families who can't afford technology as well as to keep physical books on hand in case technology goes out or some people learn better through physical books rather than a computer screen. There is so much a library can offer that many people in my community use it for. Like printing school work, having a quiet place to read, finding interesting books, searching for something on the web, and so much more! I believe students will have a harder time without libraries in my community. When I enter community libraries I always see people of all ages and genders which proves that it isn't just for some people. Its for all to use which makes it essential.
