Read this writing prompt. Write an argumentative essay about whether kids should be allowed to bring cell phones to school. Base

d on the prompt, which claim is the strongest? Cell phones are helpful tools that allow people to easily access information and stay organized. In the latest survey, 78 percent of kids asked said that they believed they should be allowed to bring cell phones to school. Schools should not allow kids to bring cell phones because they are too much of a distraction. Not every kid can have a cell phone because they are expensive and many kids do not have jobs.

Answer:

There is one strong claim against it:

<em>Schools should not allow kids.... </em><em>distraction.</em>

Explanation:

Those who are not strong claims:

<em>In the latest survey... </em><em>kids said</em>  

Anything that is based on what kids say can´t be a strong claim.

<em>Not every kid can have... because... </em><em>expensive</em><em>...</em><em> kids do not have jobs</em>

Apart from the fact that child labor is forbidden the economic reason for not allowing cell phones is not the issue. It is a social and educational issue.

And the other claim in favor has one word that makes it rather worthless:

<em>they are helpful tools and allow </em><em>people </em><em>...</em>

As we are talking about kids this claim misses the important point.

Answer: A) that Usen is not concerned about trivial matters

Explanation:

  • When he is describing the prayer, he is talking about how he and others are taught to pray to Usen for things that are helpful for life and that can encourage them to be brave and to feel safe. They had never used prayer against someone and they are always dealing fights on their own because those fight between people is considered in this excerpt like something that will pass and that it is not so important.

They were using prayer for the best things and not something that they cannot solve on their own.

Answer:

C. Allegory

Explanation:

Allegory is known as an extended metaphor whereby a long narrative is used to teach a lesson or prove a point from an absurd, unrelated story. The story usually has an implied and literal meaning.

So, a writer that comes up with an outrageous solution to poverty just to highlight the heartlessness and absurdity of the rulers he lives under uses an allegory to tell his story.

Assoli18 [71]
<span>Death being discussed in this play is foreshadowing. The author is hinting that Romeo and Juliet will die or at least that someone will die. Foreshadowing is a good way to give your audience a hint about what is to come so they will feel suspense and will try to see what will happen next.</span>
