Answer:

The author uses specific data, reasons, and quotations to support her argument effectively, but the excerpt would be stronger if she included eyewitness testimony or personal stories.

Explanation:

The excerpt from "Social Media Made the Arab Spring, But Couldn't Save It" by Jessi Hempel.The authors effectively use verifiable data and a quotation from an expert to support their claim.

The author uses specific data, reasons, and quotations to support her argument effectively, but the excerpt would be stronger if she included eyewitness testimony or personal stories.

The excerpt provides more effective evidence because it has data and statistics from research reports and also uses titles of articles and authors' names as evidence. The excerpt would have been more stronger if the author had taken into account the first hand stories and testimonies of eyewitness on the frontline, this will give more credibility to the excerpt.

Which words in these sentences are used as puns? 1. An English teacher is like a judge in that she hands out long sentences. 2.
-BARSIC- [3]
"Sentences" is the punning word in #1, for judges give out sentences. And teachers, as well. Get it? Sentences?
"Manor" is the punning word in #2. Get that? Castle? Home? Manor instead of manner? A pun is a joke exploiting the different possible meanings of a word or fact that there are words that sound alike but have different meanings. 
Another example of a pun is:
The pigs were a squeal.
I wondered why the baseball was getting bigger. And then it hit me.

Do you understand now? LOL. (: Hope this helps(:

Answer:

The correct option described second is <em>"The tone is the same, but the word choice is less formal, probably for a  younger reading audience."</em>

Explanation:

Replacing <em>"of the Victorian era"</em> with <em>"during a period of time known as the Victorian era" </em>shows less formality and a bit more explanation for younger readers.

Also <em>"distinguished" </em>is replaced with <em>"respected"</em> which is less formal and easier to be understood by younger readers.

The replacement of <em>"Her  poetry influenced ..... and Emily Dickinson"</em> in first version with this long sentence <em>"Her poetry  was very  ............. by Ms. Browning"</em>  in second version reduces formality to make it easier to understand for younger audience.

Sources that present only partial information to prove a point, or that omit crucial information that is contradictory to their
lozanna [386]
It falls under the fallacy of half truths. It is a selective thinking whose main objective is to focus on pieces of evidence that hold to be true to the believers and omits some facts to present an accurate argument.
