Rock climbing can be very rigorous or difficult to do, if you don't have the right training or equipment.

With the right training dogs, like the one shown can be very cordial, and loving with the right family and care.

Chastise

I would really appreciate it if you wouldn't chastise me so harshly everytime I make a little mistake.

Induce

The doctors had to induce the pregnant women early.

Pugnacious- eager and ready to fight

While children once huddles in front of their radios and television sets, waiting for the latest updates on the fates of heroes such as John Glenn and Neil Armstrong, modern space missions all seem to end the same way: with indistinct pictures of orange rocks, followed by impassioned hyperbole from scientist types attempting to convince us how totally awesome the images are.

Hyperbole: obvious exaggeration, usually for effort or emphasis

Chastise-to scold sharply

potent: Like everyday, there are ups and downs. Today was that day. I woke up, went to breakfast with some friends and then got ready for the day. At about noon I made my way over to the mall with my friend. She had told me that she wanted to look for a new perfume therefore we went to Macy's. I am not a perfume person at all so I just helped her look for perfumes that she thought smelled good. Finally, when she bought her new perfume she sprayed it on and it was a horrble and potent smell. I have never smelled anything so strong for that amount of time; it was a whole day!!

Do you think that alternative medicine is therapeutic or harmful?

Intangible:

To me, the greatest intangible is the ability to raise the game of the players around you. It’s when the players around you feel that they’ve got a better chance at winning because you’re in the lineup or manning your position in the field. You might not hit a game-winning home run or perform a highlight reel defensive play that snuffs out a potential rally, but the fact you’re in the game tells them that something is going to happen where your actions will spell the difference between tears of joy and tears of sorrow.
