Language is organic and changes overtime as people from various languages and cultures intermingle with each other.

Language is organic. This implies that language grows. This is because, as people from different language intermingle, each language picks up elements of the other and therefore becomes modified and somewhat different from its form in earlier centuries.

English as a language is also not left out. The English has undergone several modifications owing to the fact that many words and phrases are picked up from other languages such as Greek, Latin and French.

Also, many authors coin new words to express unique situations in their writing. These new words could ultimately become part of the English vocabulary and as such the language evolves form its earlier form.

Lastly, English as a language has evolved owing to the colonization. As new colonies are added, new words may be picked up from the local vernacular of the people which ultimately become a part of the English language.

whats the climax to this story

She clutched her lab work to her side and walked briskly towards school. The snow fell in typical New York flurries, and the ground was still icy from last night’s freeze. Careful not to slip, she climbed the steps and crossed the campus toward the science building.

"What am I doing?" she murmured. Sophie’s worst habit was talking to herself in public. "I have been warned."

"You are just a high-school kid, Sophie," they warned. "What makes you think you are capable of solving this crucial environmental issue? Stop wasting your time." The professors would not give her laboratory time to complete research nor would they share their expertise with her.

But, she could not stop.

After a snorkeling trip she took with her aunt to the coral reefs, she felt that something had shifted inside her. The snorkeling guide made one fact very clear: these colonies of tiny organisms would not last. In fact, we’d be lucky if they lasted five more years. She cared about the safety of these coral reefs more than she has cared about anything for a long, long time. She had to do something for the fragile, endangered habitat with its fish, mollusks, worms, crustaceans, and many more.

She used her money to create a lab at her aunt’s house. She worked tirelessly—endlessly—sleeping only when she had to.

"It’s what Mom and Dad would have done," she thought.

Sophie's best friend, Sam, would hang out with her every day—eating pizza, fries, and whatever else he could get his hands on, keeping her company with his humor while she worked on her experiments. And now, she has a biological solution in her hands.

She hesitated at the door to the labs. Nervously, she shifted her lab report from one hand to the other.

"I know that I have an innovative approach to solving the coral reef issue and I know I can help," she said to no one.

The image of being ridiculed by these professors, delayed her entry. She stood outside the door, wanting to run back—wanting to hide—glued to the icy spot.

"Hey, Sophie!" She turned at the unexpected sound of Sam’s voice.

"I’ve been…trying to catch up with you," he panted, out of breath. "Let’s go in and…show them…what you’ve got."

Sophie tilted her head, smiled at Sam and opened the door. She walked confidently to the front, laid out her research on the podium and began her presentation. When her presentation ended, it was to the enthusiastic sound of the scientists’ applause.

Which sentence in this excerpt from Robert Cormier's "The Moustache" reveals a character's internal conflict?
Frankly, I wasn't too crazy about visiting a nursing home. They reminded me of hospitals, and hospitals turn me off. I mean, the smell of ether
makes me nauseous, and I feel faint at the sight of blood. And as I approached Lawnrest-which is a terrible, cemetery kind of name, to begin
with-I was sorry I hadn't avoided the trip. Then I felt guilty about it. I'm loaded with guilt complexes. Like driving like a madman after promising
my father to be careful. Like sitting in the parking lot, looking at the nursing home with dread and thinking how I'd rather be with Cindy. Then I
thought of all the Christmas and birthday gifts my grandmother had given me and I got out of the car, guilty as usual.
And no it is not “I’m loaded with guilt”
