Choose a selection from this unit
"Aztec Creation Story"
"Letter from Birmingham Jail" by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
"The Gettysburg Address" by President Abraham Lincoln
"At the Tourist Centre in Boston" by Margaret Atwood
"Day of the Butterfly" by Alice Munro
"No Dogs Bark" by Juan Rulf

or central idea of the selection, citing textual evidence from selection. Next, discuss how
Koza’s statement is related to the message the author is conveying. Use specific details from
the text to support your response

Answers

Answer 1

The required paragraph in the question above should be made based on your interpretation of the work selected by you and based on how you believe that work makes you recognize yourself, as Kimberly Koza stated. For that reason, I can't create this paragraph for you, but I can show you how to write it.

First, you must choose one of the works presented in the selection above. You will have to read and reread, until you understand all the work and the message that the author presents.

Then, you must show how the author of this work exposes a concept that touches deeply in your personality and makes you recognize characteristics in yourself and in the society around you.

You can use "The Gettysburg Address" by President Abraham Lincoln, for example, as it is a short text and you can find many articles about it that explain it in detail.

If you choose this text, you can use the following information to create your paragraph:

Lincoln declaimed this speech at the end of the American Civil War, after he acknowledged the deaths of countless soldiers.Lincoln aimed to provoke sentimentalism in the public regarding the death of men who were fighting for what they believe.Lincoln reinforces the importance of both Union soldiers and Confederate soldiers, as he wants to show that everyone's life is valuable and should be honored.This shows that regardless of which side of a war a person stands for, that person's life is important to their loved ones and to the country as a whole.This shows that Lincoln had a strong empathy, even for soldiers who thought differently from him.This text, in turn, can show that a war cannot end our sympathy and solidarity with the people who suffer from this war, regardless of which side they are on.

What is Author ?

A book, essay, play, or other written work is authored by an author. [1] "An author is 'the one who started or gave life to something,' and whose authorship establishes accountability for what was made," according to a larger definition.

author, one who creates intellectual or creative work; specifically, one who writes a book, essay, poetry, drama, or other literary work for publication. A difference is usually established between an author and those who combine, arrange, or modify literary materials such as a compiler, editor, or translator.

Nonetheless, the title of author is often given to someone who combines material (for publishing) in such a way that the final compilation might be considered a substantially unique work. The term derives from the Latin auctor, which means "authorizer, responsible actor, founder, or maker."

i need to write an essay about "a telephone call that changed my life" do u guys have any idea?​

Answers

Answer:

I had just returned home after a hard day’s work as an assistant to a local magazine’s editor. My wife greeted me at the door with a less than enthusiastic smile as she took my office bag. Her cause of concern was the eviction notice that our landlord had finally sent after we’d been unable to pay the last three months’ rent. Alongside the eviction notice were several other bills that I could not bear to look at for the time being. I had enough on my plate already without burdening my low spirits.

My wife returned to the kitchen to prepare dinner while I switched on the television wondering how we would survive like this. Suddenly the telephone rang and I hesitated before answering in case it might be our landlord. Deciding to face my worst fears, I picked up the telephone receiver with a heavy heart. It was not our landlord. It was destiny calling to inform me that I had just won ten million rupees. It was through a lottery ticket that my wife had insisted on buying. At the time, I had told her that I would rather buy an ice cream cone instead, but I went ahead and bought it to make her happy.

In the past, Plan (the charity that runs the Because I Am a Girl campaign) was a well respected charity. They match donors with “foster children” in developing countries and put monthly donations towards the child’s community.
