Which blue line supports the theme “ love can change a person “
The correct answer is "Jimmy Valentine looked into her eyes, forgot what he was, and became another man"
Explanation:
"A Retrieve Reformation," tells the story of a man known as Jimmy Valentine who is released from Jail. This story has an interesting turn when Jimmy knows Annabel Adams and due to this, decides he will stop being criminal and pursue Annabel's love.
In the excerpt, the sentence that best shows the theme "loves can change a person" is "Jimmy Valentine looked into her eyes, forgot what he was, and became another man" because, in this sentence, it is explained seeing the woman for the first time had a great impact on Jimmy and made him consider who he was "forgot what he was, and became another man" and even change his identity as he focuses on knowing more about Annabel rather than being a criminal.
Both Cowper and Butler manipulate word order. In no less than seventy-five words, explain why Cowper’s diction sometimes makes the text hard to understand, while Butler’s is less difficult.
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.

Answer:
$34 + (3 * $50) - $60 - $22
Explanation:
Given the following :
Account balance = $34
Deposit made = $50 (for 3 days)
Withdrawal made = $60 ( on the 4th day)
Check written = $22
Account balance : $34
Add: Deposit : $50 * 3 [for three days]
Subtract : Withdrawal : $60
Subtract : Check : $22
Therefore,

The account started at $34. Three $50 credits were added. Indicate the withdrawal by subtracting $60 or adding –$60. The check is also represented by subtracting $22 or by taking the additive inverse and adding –$22.
