Read the following passage:

"Football is still the most popular sport in the U.S. Nearly 40% of adults name it as their favorite. In 2018, the Super Bowl audience was five times larger than that for the NBA Finals. But America’s love affair with football is starting to fade away. Public approval of the National Football League is down ten points in the last five years. Recent polls show that for the first time, a majority of parents say they would try and talk their children out of playing the game if they asked about joining a team. Researchers suggest several possible causes for the decline, including disapproval of the on- and off-field behavior of professional players, concern over the physical and mental damage of the game at all levels of play, and a more general drop in sports viewership of all kinds. Whatever the cause, these trends are still new. Only time will tell if America and football are headed for a break-up or a make-up."

HURRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY THIS IS TIMED
I hung around in the new neighborhood enjoying the sight of green trees, big whitewashed houses, and well-kept lawns where geraniums and roses of different shades were in full bloom. It had been three days since we moved to Cameron County from Reynosa, and I was eager to explore the neighborhood.
2 As I lingered on the sidewalk at the far end of the block, I noticed a house that had the neatest and the best-kept lawn I had ever seen. The lawn looked like one of those paintings by an artist who puts a lot of time and effort into his work of art. I started to turn around and leave when I heard something that sounded like a bark.
3 The gates were slightly open, and I could see the house and its conspicuous front yard with blooming flowers of different colors. For a fleeting moment, I was tempted to pluck one, but they looked so perfect that I decided to bend down and take a whiff of the sweet fragrance.
4 As I was enjoying the view laid out in front of me, a deep voice interrupted my thoughts.
5 "Aren't they lovely?" he said.
6 I turned around to find a middle-aged man, probably in his late fifties. "I planted these beauties with my own hands," he added in his proud and merry voice.
7 "Hi, my name is Ethan," I introduced myself.
8 "Nice to meet you, Ethan! I'm Jacob," he said.
9 When I told him that his garden had the best flowers in the neighborhood, his eyes twinkled, and a big grin spread across his face. I told him that I lived a few blocks away, and when I asked him about his family, he said they were on vacation. He could not leave the house, as he had a pet and a garden to look after.
10 "This garden, its flowers, and the sparrows that chirp all day long on the trees in my backyard are my friends and family for now," he said and winked. "Would you like to take one of my best roses home?" he asked.
11 "But they are so beautiful, and you worked so hard to make your garden look so appealing," I replied.
12 "If my flowers make you happy, I'll gladly gift you one," he said and smiled.
13 I was surprised and inspired by Jacob's passion for gardening and vigor for life. I headed home with a beautiful rose in my hand and a fresh zeal that my new friend had instilled in me.
