Paragraph
Terry Fox was a Canadian who suffered from bone cancer and
raised awareness for cancer research by trying to run across
Canada. He attracted a lot of attention by running the distance of
a marathon daily on one prosthetic leg. He also challenged each
Canadian citizen to contribute one dollar for cancer research.
Unfortunately, Fox was forced to end his run near Thunder Bay
because of health complications. The CTV network organized a
nation-wide run to continue Fox’s fundraising efforts. Clearly, Terry
Fox had an impact on both cancer research and the millions of
Canadians who participate in the Terry Fox Run every year.

Exercise:
Sunset is the Paragraph
time of day when our sky meets the
outer space solar winds. There are blue, pink, and
purple swirls, spinning and twisting, like clouds of
balloons caught in a whirlwind. The sun moves slowly
to hide behind the line of horizon, while the moon
races to take its place in prominence atop the night
sky. Then, people slow to a crawl, entranced, fully
forgetting the deeds that must still be done. There is a
coolness, a calmness, when the sun does set.
