How does the use of the word transformed support the claim in this passage?
Lera25 [3.4K]

From the 1750s on, sugar transformed how Europeans ate. Chefs who served the wealthy began to divide meals up. Where sugar had previously been used either as a decoration (as in the wedding feast) or as a spice to flavor all courses, now it was removed from recipes for meat, fish, and vegetables and given its own place—in desserts. Dessert as the extremely sweet end to the meal was invented because so much sugar was available. But the wealthy were not the only ones whose meals were changing. Sugar became a food, a necessity, and the foundation of the diet for England's poorest workers.

It indicates that the addition of sugar was a significant change to Europeans' diets.

Answer: Option D.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the paragraph that has been shown above, the way the Europeans ate in the 1750s and the change in their way of eating has been talked about. It shows that there has been addition of sugar in their diet.

Earlier sugar was only used as a way of decoration or as a spice to flavor up all the courses. But later the intake of sugar increased a lot in the diet of the Europeans and it became a necessity, it became a food.

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

a time relationship between the events in sentences 3 and 4

Explanation:

Kevin's paragraph is written in chronological order. He uses transition words to show the time relationship between the events throughout the paragraph. However, there is not a signal word that indicates how long after the workshop the family attended the workshop that the woman came to their house. The other options are not correct because the entire paragraph demonstrates the family's interest in helping animals. The connection between the family and woman is clear when it says that she came to their house. The last option is simply incorrect as well since a personal narrative is written in first person point of view.

4. In paragraph 4, Turkle uses an oxymoron (contradictory words): alone together. What does Turkle mean by this phrase? As Turkl
ddd [48]

You forgot to mention that this question is about the article "The Flight from Conversation".

Answer:

With the use of oxymoron, Turkle meant that we live constantly alone, but always in "contact" with the people we care about through technology. This statement influences the entire article showing how this ability is affecting our personal relationships.

Explanation:

The article shows how technology has enabled an atificial and shallow form of community. This is because technology allows us to talk to anyone, anywhere in the world, however, this communication does not form bonds and we are always alone.

However, we are alone in a collective way, since all people use this same type of communication. This results in the creation of large groups, which in fact do not exist, are not substantial. As the author of the article says, technology makes us come "a tribe of one."

Which story element most clearly categorizes "Exhalation" as a work of
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

B). The narrator's self-dissection experiment.

Explanation:

Science fiction exemplifies the literary genre which is inclined towards displaying imagined futuristic concepts including scientific facts, technological advances, etc. The short story 'Exhalation' by Ted Chiang is categorized into this genre as it carries the plot of a scientist's (probably narrator's) experiment of dissecting his own brain. Thus, the element that leads to the characterization of the story as a work of science fiction is 'the narrator's self-dissection experiment'. Therefore, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.
