The Great Slide down from the Stadium Above the Clouds was great. The tallest in the solar system, the slide was made from Graphite42, a metal that was completely friction-free, and Pip whooshed down it at what felt like over a thousand kilostrands a minute! And the view, as she approached the City from above, was fantastic! She was nearly at the bottom when . . . I would like to know what " kilostrands" here mean? It should be a fictional word, but i would like to know how fast it refers. Thanks.

Hi, everyone Let's say a teacher is giving a lecture and says this to their students: "The reason I decided to bring/put this discussion to you is because it covers a lot of concepts that will be on your test." Does it sound odd to say "put/bring this discussion to you"? What could I say instead? Thank you very much!

Hi Guys, could you correct my text? At the Grocery Store Vanesa: Mom Ana: Daughter Ryan: Son Vanessa: Ana, Ryan, hurry up! We must go to the Grocery Store right now! Ana: Mom, why do we have to go to the Grocery Store now? Why is it so important? Couldn`t we go there tomorrow? Ryan to Ana: Mom is crazy because she wants to buy hair dye. I`ve seen her looking at the mirror and getting jumpy because her hair is getting white. Vanessa: What did you say, Ryan? I am listening to everything you are saying, kids and that is making me nervous! I`m gonna tell you what: We`re gonna go to the Grocery store now, and we`ll just go to the produce section. And guess what? We`ll have cucumber, broccoli and carrots for dinner. Ana and Ryan: Oh no!!!

I have a question on these texts in the photos. The second photo is the same, the second page of the entire texts that is shown on picture 1. What I can't get is the underscored and line numbered 44 in the square on the last paragraph. My question is ：what is "that" in "That is rarely quite true." ? Another question is ： Does the line mean ･that victims of accidents or violence don't die instantly in many cases. OR ･Only those of accidents or violence can die instantly. ? These texts are photo copied from series of questions that were on the entrance exams to a college in past years. I'm not enthusiastically interested in this topic. I just want to read the text as correctly as possible. Thank you.
