Mary concludes her speech this way: "In the speech we have seen that organ donation saves lives, does not cause problems for grieving families, and is free for the donor. There are a lot of other good reasons that I could get into, but that should be enough to convince you to sign a donor card, and I have pamphlets here with instructions on how to do that. As the bumper sticker says, 'Don't take your organs to heaven. Heaven knows we need them here." Which is a legitimate critique of it?

Answers

This question is incomplete because the options are missing; here is the complete question:

Mary concludes her speech this way: "In the speech, we have seen that organ donation saves lives, does not cause problems for grieving families, and is free for the donor. There are a lot of other good reasons that I could get into, but that should be enough to convince you to sign a donor card, and I have pamphlets here with instructions on how to do that. As the bumper sticker says, 'Don't take your organs to heaven. Heaven knows we need them here." Which is a legitimate critique of it?

A. This will offend people who don't believe in the afterlife.

B. She doesn't signal the end of the speech.

C. She doesn't ask them to do anything.

D. She mentions other material she didn't discuss.

The correct answer is D. She mentions other material she didn't discuss.

Explanation:

The concluding section of a speech should summarize the most important points and mention once again the thesis statement or point of view the speaker explained during the speech. Due to this, it is appropriate Mary mentioned the advantages of organ donation, which seems to be the focus of her thesis statement.

However, it is not appropriate that in the end, she provided pamphlets to the audience with instructions on how to donate organs because she is introducing a completely new material she never mentioned and that is not part of the speech, which is not appropriate to conclude a speech.

A. A local revision focuses on the use of language and detail; a global revision addresses broader aspects of the piece.

B. A local revision focuses on main ideas, themes, and main
characters; a global revision mainly deals with word choice.

C. A local revision is made by the writer and can be changed later; a global revision is made by the publisher and cannot change.

D. A local revision is usually made during the brainstorming phase; a
global revision is made after the first draft is finished.

Answers

Answer: A and d

Explanation: just got it right

A local rewrite focuses on the use of language and detail, whereas a global revision addresses the piece's overall structure, hence option A is correct.

Local modifications are small-scale alterations that concentrate on a piece of writing's particular words, phrases, and paragraphs. They may entail editing grammatical and spelling mistakes, improving word choice, and ensuring that sentences are clear and concise.

Global revisions are larger-scale alterations that focus on a piece of writing's overall structure and organization. They can include adding or eliminating information, rearranging paragraphs, or changing the key point.

Thus, the option A is correct.

In at least 150 words, discuss the author’s choice of setting. How does it impact the themes and the progression of the plot?

Answers

Answer:

The author’s choice of setting is reflective off of the mood and tone of the book/play/movie and of the characters. Whatever setting is chosen, it impacts the themes because the characters are all in the setting. The characters can develop and gain new information etc. based on what kind of setting they are in. The setting progresses the plot because if the mood of a book is joyful and the setting is dark and ominous, then it would definitely change the whole plot line. For example, if all of the characters were very happy people and they go from a sunny day on the beach to a haunted mansion, their personalities might change with the setting. The authors choice of setting definitely affects the characters, the theme, and the plot.

the pearl book how does the town react to Kino's Good Fortune​

Answers

Answer:

The whole town reacted with such fervor which the author states was like a "nerve . . . pulsing and vibrating with the news".

Explanation:

John Steinbeck's "The Pearl" revolves around the character Kino, a pearl diver who discovered a pearl and thus, began his change of fortune from being super poor to becoming rich. The story is more of a parable that deals with the greed of man and the evils in society that only leads to more discrimination.

Kino and his wife Juana were living in dire poverty. Once when a scorpion stung their baby Coyotito, the doctor refused to treat him because they had no money to pay him for his services. In frustration, Kino went diving for oysters while his wife applied seaweed on their son's swollen shoulder. Kino found a huge pearl which he dubbed "the Pearl of the World". From then on, numerous misfortunes happened to them, thieves tried to break in and steal their pearl, traders tried to cheat them out of it. The whole neighborhood was abuzz with the enormous discovery, the whole town was "pulsing and vibrating with the news", everyone trying to associate themselves with Kino, including the doctor who refused to treat them earlier.

How is the title of the story " The Accursed House" relevent to the story?​

Answers

Answer:

The title 'The Accursed House' is relevant to the story as it depicts a society that is accursed with negative thoughts.

Explanation:

The Accursed House is a short story written by Emile Gabriau. The story is a sarcasm on the society where we live in, which does not get suspicious when people charge extra or does something bad but when stores charges less and do something good to you.

The author has used the sarcasm to portray a society 'under curse' (accurse) which represents the shallow thoughts of people. It presents a society where people are accursed with negativity.

Thus the title of the story 'The Accursed House' is relevant to the story as it depicts a society accursed with negativity and negative mind-set.
