One of the organizations that helps hundreds of thousands of refugees is Jesuit Refugee Service, directed by Thomas Smolich, S.J. M.Div. ’86. “We have had the misperception that the typical refugee leaves home and she is able to go back six months later—when the political situation has calmed down or, in the case of natural disaster, that recovery has begun,” he says.

    English 324 Worksheet #4 Your responses are due on Wednesday June 27. Late assignments will not be accepted. Please ensure that you write clear and intelligible responses. A. Find the adverbials in the text below (By Jere Longman in the New York Times, October 7, 2003).

They had the resolve of pioneers, traveling to soccer outposts like China and Haiti in the early days, living on candy bars, bathing in hotel pools when there was no running water or electricity. At first, they played in front of their friends and parents, but later they filled stadiums and, one of them, Mia Hamm, became the most widely known soccer player in the country. Hamm, Kristine Lilly, Julie Foudy and Joy Fawcett played in four Women’s World Cups, Brandi Chastain in three. The United States won two titles, but with a 3-0 defeat to Germany in the semifinals on Sunday, not only did this 2003 World Cup end prematurely for the Americans, but perhaps so did a groundbreaking era. These seminal players are expected to participate in the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, then all or most of them will retire. They have succeeded since 1987 on the national team with hustle, muscle, athleticism, fitness, determination and the cultural backing of a nation that granted women the same opportunities in sport as men. B. Write eight sentences. Each sentence must contain one of the following types of verbs, and all eight verbs must be used.
