How does satire create meaning in this cartoon? The expressions on the turkeys' faces make it clear that they are not happy with

their situation. The turkeys are bigger than the fence, signifying the importance of health care compared to other things. The barn is small compared to the turkeys, showing that turkeys are mistreated by farmers. The turkey heading for slaughter asking about health care critiques current healthcare systems.

Answer:

The turkey heading for slaughter asking about health care critiques current healthcare systems.

Explanation:

Satire uses humor, irony or hyperbole to make jest of stupidity or vices of  people in the context of politics.

In this attached file below, there is a cartoon by Signe Wilkinson where turkeys are lined up. One of the turkeys asks the other 'How's your health care?'

The turkeys represent the masses that are dependent on an expensive healthcare. In the United States, healthcare is not affordable and only a few can afford it with many people depending on private health insurance to bear some medical cost, the US Medicare is only available to a tiny fraction of the population.

Satire creates meaning in the cartoon by showing The turkey heading for slaughter asking about health care critiques current healthcare systems.

What are some examples of the use of figurative language in “Tribute to a Dog”? What is the impact of figurative words and phras
Yuliya22 [10]
Figurative language is one of the most important elements of any literary texts. It's like the spice and seasoning of a dish, it gives taste to it. 

"A Tribute to a Dog" is a speech made by Senator George Graham Vest as his closing argument for his client's dog shot and killed by his neighbor. Some examples of the figurative language used in the text are the following: <span>
   ♣ </span>He will sleep on the cold ground, where the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he may be near his master’s side. <span>(Personification) 
   ♣ </span><span>The one absolutely unselfish friend that a man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him and the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous is his dog.</span><span>  (Personification) 
   ♣ </span>A man’s dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness (Hyperbole)
   ♣ <span>He guards the sleep of his pauper master as if he were a prince. (Metaphor) 
   ♣ H</span><span>e is as constant in his love as the sun in its journey to the heavens. (Simile) 
These are just a few of the figurative languages used in the text, there' still more.  But these ones give more impact to the whole text. It makes it more convincing and meaningful. For sure because of this speech, his side won the case. </span>

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