Read the essay "Love Thy Garden." Then rewrite the essay to improve the flow between sentences as well as between the paragraphs

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Love Thy Garden

Most of us associate gardening with our grandparents, with people recovering from an illness, or with older folks gently tending to rows of hydrangeas and tomatoes. Of course, it is not something young people do, right? However, an increasing number of young adults and kids are getting into small-scale farming or gardening. This happens because schools across the country have initiated programs that involve working not only in gardens but also in small community farms. For example, The Edible Schoolyard Project, which was created in 2005 by Alice waters, makes farming fun for young people. In the beginning, Alice wanted to transform a vacant lot into an edible kitchen in her neighborhood school. After 2005, the project blossomed into a nationwide campaign to involve kids in the food-growing and production process. The program lets school kids of varying ages grow their fruits and vegetables. Then, it teaches them interesting and simple recipes. Can you imagine the joy kids experience in every stage when growing their food? First, they plant the seed. Then, they watch the plant grow as they take care of it. Finally, they pick the fruits and eat them. Besides, farming has other benefits: it relieves stress and it helps kids stay fit and connect with the community. Gardening or farming can also be fun for adults and teenagers. Thus, people of all ages can enjoy it.

Explanation

Grandparents: unification of the concept grandpas and grandmas to get a shorter sentence.
Sentence 1: Since the first three sentences are closely related, the text flows better by linking them. The repetition of the preposition "with" gives the text a poetical aspect.
people recovering from an illness/with older folks gently tending to rows of hydrangeas and tomatoes: omission of the expressions "who are"/"We have seen" to make the sentence shorter.
Of course: to emphasize the claim.
Young people instead of younger because there is not a comparison between two elements in the same sentence.
It is not instead of it isn´t since it should be formal as it may be an academic text.
However: connector to show an opposition between two ideas.
This happens because: phrase to link the cause and the effect.
not only in gardens but also in small community farms: not only but also to show addition.
For example: to introduce an instance of the previous idea.
, which was created in 2005 by Alice waters, : use of a relative clause to characterize the previous pronoun.
In the beginning/ After 2005: connectors to show the before and after of the project.
neighborhood school instead of a school in her neighborhood to make the sentence less complex.
The omission of "own" because it is redundant.
Then: connector of time to show that the idea follows the food-growing process.
as: to show simoultaneous ideas
Can you imagine the joy kids experience in every stage when growing their food?: use of a question to invite the reader to think and make him/her feel part of the text.
First/then/finally: connectors to show the chronological order of processes.
Besides: to add a new idea
use of colon: to introduce a list of equal elements
also: to show the idea of addition, inclusion
Thus: connector to show a consequence of the previous statement

Read the excerpts from “Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry” and “Speaking Arabic.” My friend had concluded that if he took hi

hodyreva [135]

B. They employ figurative language

Both of these excerpts engage the reader by making the text come alive. The first employs a metaphor when it says "In other words, he took the tortillas out of his poetry, which is to say he took the soul out of his poetry". This metaphor is comparing the heritage in his friend's writing to a tortilla which then he extends into comparing to their souls.
The second piece employs imagery and personification when he describes "the tall American trees were dangling their thick branches right down over his head", showing that the trees are coming alive to show his friend that they are part of his heritage.

Item 4 What is the best definition of fascist as it used in this sentence? The man says he alone has the solution to the world's

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Based solely on this sentence? Best definition if we're only using this is...

A person who is authoritarian ('he alone'), blunt ('uses the literal meanings of words') and forcibly supresses others ('will not listen to others', 'makes decisions on behalf of others').

Not too far off the mark, but there's a lot more to fascism than is shown here.

“Hey-

AveGali [126]

Answer:

c. ignoring social conventions

Explanation:

Email totally ignores social conventions, which are norms and agreements that allow life in society. The email, greet the person who should receive this email. Social conventions require us to greet people before we talk about our purpose with email, in addition, the person who wrote the email should identify himself. So we can say that email would be correct if it were written as follows:

"Dear Mr. Lopes.

I dropped an application off last week and was wondering if anyone had a chance to look over it yet. Get back to me, please.

Sincerely, Natalia camara."
