ANSWERS GRADED A+ WCU
Eating
Consumption of food is a universal necessity. Different cultures have developed
different methods to accomplish the task. It is interesting to discover these
differences and learn new ways to do things. European cultures developed cutlery
(knives, forks, and spoons) to enable people to efficiently eat their food. Correct
use of this tools changes with the times-what was polite in 1800 may not be
considered proper manners today. China developed the chopstick as an efficient
tool for eating. Mastery of the use of chopsticks can be difficult for the person not
raised in the culture. The attempts of a novice to use chopsticks can be very
amusing to the watcher, but frustrating for the hungry diner. Space travel has
created new challenges for consuming food. Squeeze bottles and other unique
packaging have enabled space travelers to get their needed nutrition. Chopsticks
and forks do not work well in space.

Game of Bridge
The ebb and flow of laughter and silence fills the room as four old friends gather to
engage in a round of Bridge playing. For the beginner, Bridge can be complicated,
but with time, effort, and a good teacher, even the novice can become proficient.
Composed of two main parts, bidding and playing, Bridge requires the player's
undivided attention. The dealer deals the entire deck of playing cards evenly
between the for players, with each person receiving thirteen cards. In the bidding
portion of the game, the four suits of cards in the deck are ranked highest to lowest
as follows: spades, hearts, diamonds, and finally clubs. However, during play all
the suits of cards are considered equals, and they go from highest to lowest from
the ace being high to the two card being low. The highest number of tricks wins. A
trick is one card played by each player for a total of four. After the lead player lays
down his/her card, the other players follow suit, if possible. The highest card
within the four "same suit" cards played wins the trick and picks up all four cards.
if a player cannot follow suit, he/she plays any card, but to make the game more
interesting and challenging, one suit is named a trump suit which means that if a
player plays a card from the trump suit, it always wins the trick. If two cards from
the trump suit are played, the highest card within the trump suit wins the trick.
obviously the team with the most tricks wins the hand.
set 3
1. The author wants the reader to feel (Gob)
Confident and excited about learning the game of bridge
2. Throughout this passage the word suit means (gob)
Any of the four sets into which a deck of cards is divided.
