Section C Compound Dictation

Our lives are woven together. As much as I enjoy my own company, I no longer imagine I can get through a single day much leall my life completely on my own. Even if I am on vacation in the mountains, I am eating food someone else has grown, living in a house someone else has built, wearing clothes someone else has sewn from cloth woven by others, using electricity someone else is distributing to my house. Evidence of interdependence is everywhere; we are on this journey together.
