INSTRUCTIONS: Add capitalization to the following paragraph (40 capital letters needed). (Do not make any other changes.) Twins don't run in my family why am i blessed with such an experience? were the words that went through my head as dr. fink verified the appearance of two heads on the sonogram. On a rainy friday, august 13, 1976, at christ hospital, andrea and bianca were born. I was then bombarded by double everything from hiccups, to spit-ups, to bowel movements, to delights. In my previous work life, I was ms. eva clay, president of med Aide, a small medical supply company, but now i was a mom. being a modern mom, I decided that these girls should have their own identities, so andrea and bianca were not dressed alike. however, their pull towards one another was much more powerful than I. many mornings they would run into the kitchen yelling, today, we want to be twins, mommie. with marvelous enthusiasm, they would run and try to piece together reasonably matching kmart outfits. at mt. Sky elementary school in flagstaff, arizona, as they played soccer, one seemed to be telepathically connected to the other. Andrea knew where Bianca was, and many balls went through the goal posts. When playing pictionary with the family, the twins were not allowed to be on the same side. a dot or slight mark was enough for the other to guess the object. today, Bianca is a news reporter for kvue, austin, texas. Andrea is an architectural engineer, working in a firm in boulder, Colorado. Their paths have separated, and they have selected different careers. However, they still charm and enthrall us.

Ques. 6

INSTRUCTIONS: Add capitalization to the following paragraph (30 capital letters needed). (Do not make any other changes.) One of the most skillful and exciting players in the national basketball association (NBA) is the point guard steve nash. as a member of the phoenix suns, he is known for his superior passing, so his team mates can score on jump shots or quick lay-ups. He especially likes to pass to grant hill and amar stoudemire. Because the style of play for the suns is to run constantly, nash's ability to pass quickly and accurately allows him to thrill the crowd with his remarkable playmaking. He is right-handed, but he can pass with his left hand as accurately as with his right. The phoenix crowd at u.s. airways Center cheers also as they see this dashing canadian send a bounce pass to stoudemire between two opposing players. sometimes, when the rest of the team does not seem to be able to get the job done, nash shows another skill, his own ability to score. He can run full speed down the court, stop short, and loft a three-point shot that swishes through the basket without even hitting the rim. In addition, during november, 2007, over a span of several games, nash completed fifty-three free throws in a row. the nba and media representatives from across the country recognized nash's skills by naming him the league's Most Valuable Player two years in a row. although he is now in his thirties, he will certainly continue to thrill crowds with his outstanding basketball ability.

(Answer to Q. 4)  Adults today often find themselves raising their grandchildren. When Elaine's daughter, a single parent, went to Nashville, Tennessee, to pursue a singing career, Gabby, her little granddaughter, stayed with her grandmother, and once again, Elaine took on a parental role. Though Elaine had thought her child-raising days were over, they weren't. She enrolled Gabby at Sunrise School, where her granddaughter took language arts, math, and Spanish. Every Tuesday after school, Elaine took her granddaughter to dance lessons, and on Thursday evenings they took Tai Chi lessons together. Many Saturdays, they prepared a picnic lunch of sandwiches made from Skippy peanut butter. Then they often spent the morning at Wildlife World Zoo. Every Sunday, they went to Bethel Bible Church and then ate out at Sweet Tomatoes or Furr's. Elaine enjoyed playing checkers and reading such books as Where the Red Fern Grows with her granddaughter.
