Highlight the correct one of the two verbs given in the brackets below.

My English is really getting better. I (have been trying/tried) to learn the language since 1985, but only recently have I been able to make some real progress. By the time I started high school in 1988, I (was studying/ had studied) the language for almost three years; however, I was only able to introduce myself and utter a few memorized sentences. For a couple more years, I (struggle/ struggled) through grammar and vocabulary lessons, which made absolutely no difference. Nothing worked, so I decided to study abroad.
I found an exchange program in England that sounded like the perfect answer. I (will stay/ stayed) with a host family for one month. It was a huge disappointment! I didn’t learn anything.
Then I moved to the United States. It worked! I (have been living/will have lived) in the U.S. for more than two years. I have improved a lot already and plan to stay here for longer.

you want to use copper pipes for liquids in your food factory?

Answers

Because copper is expensive and there are better alternatives

Answer:

It will start to rust. If the liquids are food they might start to have a taste of the copper. But in a smarter way of saying; Water absorbs copper as it leaches from plumbing materials such as pipes, fittings, and brass faucets. The amount of copper in your water depends on the types and amounts of minerals in the water, how long water stays in the pipes, the water temperature and acidity.

CPI describes bullying as being distinguished by deliberately aggressive action that includes an irregularity of power and strength. It can be exemplified by physical, verbal/nonverbal.

It began in 1939 when a small group of eminent scientists in this country called to the attention of the United States Government the vast potentialities of atomic energy for military purposes and warned that the Germans were already carrying on experiments in this field. The program initiated October of that year with a very modest appropriation and later expanded into the two-billion-dollar Manhattan Project, which had only one purpose--to harness the energy of the atom in a chain reaction to produce a bomb that could be carried by aircraft if possible, and to produce it before the Germans could.What cause and effect relationship does this paragraph suggest?1. The atomic bomb was built because the government forced scientists to figure out how to split an atom.2.

Scientists agreed to work on an atomic bomb because President Truman convinced them that such a weapon would end the war.4.
