"I believe teens should be allowed to play dangerous sports."  

I believe teens should be, research shows that if teens participate in extreme sports they will learn in the future to learn how to take risks even though extreme sports can cause serious injuries but i think they should be allowed. It's well-known that physical activity has many health benefits. Unfortunately, many kids today have lost interest in traditional sports. But activities such as snowboarding, mountain biking, and motocross are steadily becoming more popular. And that’s a good thing.Although some extreme sports are associated with a higher potential for injury, it may be this very risk that helps get—and keep—teens involved. If kids believe that they aren’t challenged by an activity, they might lose interest. It’s important that young people learn to take chances and push their boundaries. Doing so is crucial to figuring out when to take risks—and when not to. Risk-free activities deprive kids of the opportunity to test themselves and overcome their fears.To avoid serious injuries when taking part in extreme sports, kids should be honest with themselves about their skill level. Athletes who compete in the X Games or the Olympics spend years working their way up to the gravity-defying stunts they perform on TV. Kids who are new to action sports should avoid the most dangerous tricks until they’re ready. And they should always wear a helmet. Teens may lack the ability to judge risks and the consequences of failure. That’s why it’s important for them to have guidance from a coach or parent. Nevertheless, extreme sports can still be part of a healthy, balanced life. Participating in extreme sports helps kids Learn when to take risks.

that fire explodes eventually

Answers

he built the fire that burned through the earth?

Answer:

The correct answer to the question: Using our context clues, the theory of a central fire most likely means, would be, B: That a fire must exist in the center of all things.

Explanation:

This belief of a Central Fire, comes from the astronomycal system born, in part, from the philosophy of Pythagorean philosopher Philolaus, in the 5th century BC, and it was the ruling belief for quite some time. This system established that the Earth, the Sun, and other celestial bodies, gravitated around an unseen Central Fire. This is why the correct answer here is B. Because the Greeks at the time believed that everything gravitated around this unknown, and unseen "Central Fire".

-It may be well my posterity should be informed that to this little artifice, with the blessing of God, their ancestor ow'd the constant felicity of his life, down to his 79th year, in which this is written.- What reverses may attend the remainder is in the hand of Providence; but, if they arrive, the reflection on past happiness enjoy'd ought to help his bearing them with more resignation. To Temperance he ascribes his long-continued health, and what is still left to him of a good constitution; to Industry and Frugality, the early easiness of his circumstances and acquisition of his fortune, with all that knowledge that enabled him to be a useful citizen, and obtained for him some degree of reputation among the learned; to Sincerity and Justice, the confidence of his country, and the honorable employs it conferred upon him; and to the joint influence of the whole mass of the virtues, even in the imperfect state he was able to acquire them, all that evenness of temper, and that cheerfulness in conversation, which makes his company still sought for, and agreeable even to his younger acquaintance. -I hope, therefore, that some of my descendants may follow the example and reap the benefit.-
