> Researchers at the University of British Columbia in Canada found that when people were given ginger (valued for its anti-nausea properties), their judgments on different moral quandaries – from drinking water from an unused toilet bowl to talking to an ex behind your partner's back – were less harsh than those of a control group offered sugar pills.
@userr2684291 thank you for your comment, it is very helpful!! Could you help me with the words that I should change, please?
@FumbleFingers thanks, I got it! So it should say "1) The group of engineers at the University of California were able to create a stretchable biofuel cell that attaches to the human skin capable of extracting energy from human sweat to power portable devices, thanks to chemistry, advanced materials and electronic interfaces."
@FumbleFingers what about the rest of the answers? According to @userr2684291, the answers are cut from the article, which I share but I do not see how I could improve my grammar. Some help please?
Also, the OP added quotes for the exchange between Trump and some other party. It could be that the last sentence is Trump quoting the OTHER party's statement. Are you sure you quoted correctly? Should there potentially be quotes around the last sentence? — Keeta16 hours ago
@Keeta See video link. The quotes are mine, as he is recounting a presumably imaginary conversation with an unknown party. Do note, in the quote, that he both begins and ends the statement with the same claim. — AJFaraday16 hours ago

Let's say I have a friend whom I'm not meeting tomorrow, and they call me and say "If you came over tomorrow, we could play video games.

@manooooh I can't see anything particularly wrong with the rest of your text in terms of language (but obviously #2 is pretty much "cut&paste"). As to how well or badly your text answers the actual questions, I can't really say. It's not a subject I know much about, and I'm afraid I'm not really motivated to learn more of the detail (sorry! :)
@FumbleFingers the idea of this is to answer correctly and with our words, regardless of knowing much or little about the subject in question (in fact the subject is not my specialty), but if you consider that only answer # 2 is "copy and paste" I will consider it!
