Using this strategy with a text Excerpts from the Communist

Manifesto by Friederich Engels and Karl Marx,

1848

“The modern bourgeois society...has not done away with class antagonisms. It has but established new forms of struggle in place of the old ones. Modern industry has converted the little workshop of the patriarchal master into the great factory of the industrial capitalist. Masses of laborers, crowded into the factory, are organized like soldiers.... They are slaves of the machine and the manufacturer. Instead of rising as industry progresses, they sink deeper and deeper into poverty....”

Exercising Caution: Intensive Athletic Activity Could Be Fatal to Those with Sickle Cell Trait---By Rose Eveleth

At 5:30 A.M. on February 19, 2010, 20-year-old Bennie F. Abram started his first day of football practice as a junior at the University of Mississippi. Several hours later he collapsed and died. Later in 2010, 20-year-old Jospin Milandu and 15-year-old Oliver Louis also died unexpectedly while working out with their teams. Autopsies of all three revealed one striking commonality: long, sickle-shaped blood cells that indicated they had at least one mutation for sickle-cell anemia.
