Answer:
My last holiday was a five-day trip to Prague in the Czech Republic. I know Prague well because I lived there when I was at university, more than ten years ago.
Instead of staying in a hotel, I stayed with one of my old friends. It was so much fun, and a little bit like my old life. I wanted to do all the same things I did in my university days, so I visited the university. It has changed a lot and looks more modern. I also went to the supermarket near my old house. I loved seeing all the different foods. I was really happy to find my favourite cheese and chocolate biscuits but they were a bit more expensive than I remember!
We did some touristy things too. We walked up beautiful Petrin Hill and around the castle. The views of the city are amazing up there. We walked across the historic Charles Bridge. My friend's flat is very near the TV Tower so we saw the famous baby statues climbing up it. Those things haven't changed, of course.

"Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced" - James Baldwin
Answer:
not everything we go through can be changed but we must go through things for even the possibility of change.
Explanation:
The above quote implies that Fear can keep us from facing what we know we should face.
Who was James Baldwin?One of the most well-known individuals who was born in 1924 and passed away in 1987 was James Baldwin. He was a civil rights activist and writer. He is most renowned for his racial, political, and sexual themes in semi-autobiographical plays and books.
Fear can prevent us from facing what we know we should face, as the proverb "Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced" suggests.
It is unlikely that the individual will be able to alter all of his issues and failings, and he will have little opportunity of doing so unless he has the guts to confront them.

What were corrupt and negative aspects of industrial cities, and how did early reformers attempt to address those issues?
Answer and Explanation:
Industrial cities exploited workers and did not pay them fairly. Allowing them not to have enough money to have a good quality of life. This meant that workers had to live in maginalized suburbs with little structure. In addition, the workplaces were inhospitable and caused various damages to workers.
The suburbs grew absurdly and got worse and worse, crime in these places skyrocketed and many residents lived in a situation of misery, even though they were working in factories.
The early reformers sought to create unions that demand fair treatment and payment to workers, so that they could have a dignified life. In addition to looking for improvements in the workplace and labor rights.
Answer:
Industrial cities of this time period played host to a variety of problems, such as corruption of city officials, who were often bribed to look the other way if safety or sanitary standards were not met. As well as unsafe living conditions. This was especially evident in the tenements in which many immigrants were forced to live in their own waste mixed with two or three of their neighbors simply because their was no room. Illnesses were more frequent in these areas and crime was an everyday thing. Laborers who worked in the factories were often subject to extremely unsafe conditions and incredibly low pay. Early reformers tried to stop this by creating labor unions, electing new officials, and building new homes for the immigrants to stay in and be educated in american culture and society so that they would fit in better,

A letter to the chairman of the local government explaining the need for the supply of infrastructural materials and giving two reasons why it is urgent
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
Universal Model School,
90 Aba Owerri Road,
Aba.
February 6, 2021.
The Chairman,
Osisioma Ngwa Local Council Area,
Aba.
Sir,
URGENT REQUEST FOR INFRASTRUCTURAL FACILITIES
It is with a great sense of urgency that I write this letter to you sir. The state of Abia has been faced with an alarmingly increasing challenge of infrastructural decay over the past twenty years. The responsibility of infrastructural development now mostly lies with the administration of local council areas in recent time.
Sir, The Umungasi district in Osisioma Ngwa Local council area is a hub for major economic activities around the council area. Unfortunately, this district is facing terrible infrastructural decay such as lack of access roads and poor drainage systems. This has threatened to cut off some parts of the district from the rest of the Council area.
Secondly, the Umungasi district is the location where the state civil servants' low cost housing project is to be executed. This means that, in the near future, most of the civil servants in Abia State will move into Umungasi district. This implies more robust economic activities and more development to this district and the Local Council in general. This may not be achieved in the midst of the infrastructural decay currently faced by the district,
It is my sincere plea that you treat this matter as urgent.
Yours Faithfully,
Jude Njoku
