First, it is necessary to explain that Diction is the term that refers to the choice of words that the author makes, as well as the choice of linguistic factors used to convey the message, themes and ideas of a written work. The function of the diction is to establish the voice and style of the text, in line with the message that the author wants to convey. Based on this, we can say that Cowper's diction usually makes it difficult to read the text, because Cowper has preferences for words and linguistic factors that promote a more immersive and reflective reading, through less common and more elite words. Butler, on the other hand, has a less difficult diction, since he prefers more direct messages and the use of more common words and of direct, punctual and quick meaning.

Justice [Name of Justice you are sending this too],
Greetings.
I write to you, honorable [Name], in hopes to gain continued support in containing the people of Japanese ancestry within their confinement for the time being. The nation is in a critical state, and the previous events imposed by the Japanese government strictly allows us only to keep a tight security of our native Japanese populations. In supporting the internment of the Japanese Americans, it benefits the US war effort as a whole.
1) Spies: As of their natural identity and nationality, the Japanese people may see to aid their homeland, and throw off the security of the land. Any military information must be kept strictly away from those whose ancestry comes from Japan.
An example can be found in which not even the Japanese themselves are actively spying, but are actively building networks in spying. Mr.Miyazaki is such an example, in which he bribed Mr.Thompson to spy in San Diego for the Japanese Impreial Government.
2) Support: While they may not spy, they may have trouble finding complete support for their new homeland, and failure to be 100% for the United States may lead to instability within the country.
Examples can be found all over the country, in which Japenese struggle to support either their homelands, or their new homeland, particularly with the Issei's. An example can be found in numerous books (I read a book, but the title slipped my mind, in which it was about a Japanese boy who's family was interned, and it was a cut off but day-by-day to individual logs of what the son felt like throughout the war within the camp.
3) Security: Stepping away from the Japanese ancestry, the people around them may feel less secure and afraid of their surroundings. Taking away any such reminders of Pearl Harbor or Japanese cultures may help ease people away from the tensions prescribed by the current events.
*There has been internment of Japanese spies and supporters within the United States. However, it was not as wide-spread as believed, and many Japanese immigrants and Japanese-Americans were extremely pro-America, and showed their loyalty when they were allowed to fight on the European sector.
Through these main points (and there can be more), we must seek for the internment of people with Japense ancestry for the security of the nation and the protection of the people.
[Ending remarks]
[Name]
*Note: Italics are not part of the letter, it is used to tell you what kind of supporting detail you should prescribe into those parts if need be.
*Note: There can be many more reasons for you supporting the internment. Those can be added. Remember to follow up with supporting details and evidences.
*Note: Put into your own words if possible, remember to revise (as per last point of your assignment).

In the “Monkeys Paw” the author uses both actions and words of the sergeant major to build suspense. Describe how both the words he says and the actions he takes build suspense
Answer:
Jacobs creates suspense through the use of setting, foreshadowing, and purposeful omission. The story takes place at the White residence, which is relatively isolated and located away from the nearest road. This isolated location adds to the haunting atmosphere of the story and is significant to the plot. Jacobs also foreshadows the ramifications of wishing upon the magic monkey's paw through Sergeant-Major Moris's enigmatic story.

George Washington, the first President of the United States, is often refereed to as the Founding Father of Our Country. He was born at "Wakefield," near Popes Creek, Westmoreland County, VA, on February 22, 1732. During his lifetime, Washington became known for his love of the land and farming, and many argue that he was perhaps the one indispensable man among the founders. It is hard to imagine any of the others commanding the respect needed to lead the Continental Army to victory over Great Britain, preside over the Constitutional Convention, and serve the United States as its first president. While still in his teens, Washington became a land surveyor, which gave him a solid grounding in mathematics and the evaluation of topography. This would later serve him well as a military commander. As a lieutenant colonel of the Virginia militia, Washington led a force into the Ohio Valley to contest French domination of that region. He was in command of the British forces at the Battle of Fort Necessity in the summer of 1754, the war that ended with the removal of French power from North America and set the stage for the American Revolution. Washington gained valuable military experience in that conflict. Inheriting Mt. Vernon, a family planation on the Potomac River, in 1761, Washington spent the next 15 years as a planter, also serving in the House of Burgesses the (the colonial legislature in Virginia). He took the patriot side in the disputes with Great Britain in the 1760s and 1770s, and he was elected to the first Continental Congress in 1774. With the coming of open war with Britain in 1775, the congress decided to make Washington commander in chief of the new Continental Army. Washington had as much military experience as anyone in the colonies, and his selection helped gain the allegiance of Virginia, by far the most populous of the 13 colonies. After accepting the British surrender at Yorktown in October 1781, Washington retired to Mt. Vernon to revive his plantation and financial position. His political career continued when he was elected to the Constitutional Convention in 1787 and reluctantly served as its presiding officer. Washington's support of the Constitution was critical in its acceptance by the states. He was a virtually unanimous choice for the nation's first president. Washington served two terms and could easily have gained a third had he wished to do so. Instead, he established the precedent of a two-term maximum. In the last years of his life, he was appointed as lieutenant general and commander of the United States Army again on July 3, 1798, and he served until his death on December 14, 1799. 4 Select the correct answer. What is the author's purpose in "George Washington"? A. to convince readers that George Washington played a significant role in the win against Great Britain B. to inform readers about George Washington's legacy as the first president of the United States C. to entertain readers with details about George Washington's personal life as a teenager and adult D. to teach readers about the qualities of good leadership based on examples set by George Washington
I am pretty sure the answer is D because went over this in class.
Select the correct answer. Read the excerpt from “The Pobble Who Has No Toes” by Edward Lear. What is the rhyme scheme? The Pobble who has no toes Swam across the Bristol Channel; But before he set out he wrapped his nose In a piece of scarlet flannel. For his Aunt Jobiska said "No harm Can come to his toes if his nose is warm; And it's perfectly known that a Pobble's toes Are safe,—provided he minds his nose!" A. abcb efgf B. abbc dede C. abab ccdd D. abbc deed
Answer:
C. abab ccdd.
Explanation:
The rhyme scheme of any line of a poem in poetry is the way the end words of each line sounds. The similarity of the sounds of each line signifies the pattern of rhyme in it.
In the given lines are taken from the second stanza of the poem "The Phobble Who Has no Toes" by Edward Lear. And looking closely at the end words/ sounds of each line, we can see a pattern.
Now, assigning each word/ sound with the alphabets, let's look into each line of the given poem.
The Pobble who has no toes (a)
Swam across the Bristol Channel; (b)
But before he set out he wrapped his nose (a)
In a piece of scarlet flannel. (b)
For his Aunt Jobiska said "No harm (c)
Can come to his toes if his nose is warm; (c)
And it's perfectly known that a Pobble's toes (d)
Are safe,—provided he minds his nose!" (d)
The words "toes/nose" rhyme with each other, thus assigned the letter (a).
"Channel" rhymes with "flannel", thus assigned (b).
"harm" from line 5 rhymes with "warm" from line 6, thus (c)
And "toes" from line 7 rhymes with "nose" from line 8, so (d).
Therefore, the rhyme scheme of the given lines of poetry is abab ccdd.

The author uses a formal academic tone to call attention to "the many nuances of black aesthetics." Which selection from the article BEST reflects that tone? A In my 6-year-old mind, being a superhero was life. At every free moment, I draped towels across my back to form capes and created masks out of colorful construction paper. B I can vividly recall breaking vases, windows, and other treasured household items that resulted in many non-rod-sparing sessions and privilege revocations. C I began to resent superhero films, although I told myself I was aging out. The resentment lasted until I came across the trailer for the Ryan Coogler-directed "Black Panther." D The movie has already started to transcend the silver screen by sparking discourse around the sovereignty and ingenuity of blackness.

Explanation:
Including children in caring for a pet can be a positive experience. It teaches children valuable lessons. Abiding by the decision to take care of a pet teaches young children accountability. When they agree to share the responsibilities, they become liable for their pet's livelihood. The 2011–2012 National Pet Owners Survey reported that "as many as 58 percent of pet owners claimed that caring for their pets taught their children responsibility." There are many age-appropriate tasks that young children can help parents with such as feeding or putting a pet's toys away. Laura Kang, a parent, states, "Sometimes even my most responsible daughter makes mistakes, but I turn these moments into educational ones by coming up with a plan together for how to do better next time." These caregiving tasks also teach children the importance of taking ownership for their actions. Tina Smith, a well-known family counselor, suggests that "showing how children's actions help pets should be celebrated when done right." Another parent, John Wiggin, agrees: "Consequences for not following through with duties should not be a punishment but instead be a teaching moment to help children understand the importance of their responsibility." Their tasks play a huge part in keeping their pet healthy and happy. Some argue that owning a dog is too much work for a child, but the hard work involved is worth the time and effort in the long run. It builds self-confidence and self-esteem that last into their adulthood. 2 Select the correct answer. The author most likely wrote this article A. to teach the reader about the proper ways to teach children responsibility. B. to persuade the reader that parents should adopt a pet into their family. C. to inform the reader that caring for a pet is more difficult than people think. D. to entertain the reader with stories about how parents deal with their children.
Answer:
A. to teach the reader about the proper ways to teach children responsibility.
Explanation:
Throughout the text not only does the author repeatedly states that including children in caring for a pet teaches them responsibility, but he or she also shows evidence and quotes experts on the matter that also reassure that. The text focuses on the importance of teaching young children to be accountable and on how including children in caring for a pet can achieve that.

Read this paragraph from I Never Had It Made. I wasn't just another athlete being hired by a ball club. We were playing for big stakes. This was the reason Branch Rickey's search had been so exhaustive. The search had spanned the globe and narrowed down to a few candidates, then finally to me.
