Which of these sentences should Nancy add at the beginning of the second paragraph (sentences 7-15) to serve as the most
stich3 [128]

The sentence that Nancy should add at the beginning of the second paragraph to serve as the most effective position statement for her essay is <em>C. We spend way too much time during the week ...</em>

  • A position statement is the writer's or speaker's viewpoint, claim, or thesis clearly stated after the introductory paragraph.  It may also come at the end of the first paragraph or sometimes at the beginning of the second paragraph.

  • It clearly states the unequivocal position that the author has taken on the topic.  It is then interwoven with reasons and evidence to support the stated position.

  • The major characteristics of a position statement are:
  1. It is simple and clear.
  2. It is memorable and tailored to achieve result.
  3. It is credible, focused, and supported with reasons.

Thus, a position statement does not create ambivalence and ambiguity like options A, B, and D but is well-supported with reasons like option C.

alex41 [277]

When Oedipus asks the blind prophet for his advice, the chorus is confused because of the answer the prophet provides. He accuses the King Oedipus of being the murderer of the previous king. The chorus are now confused and afraid of the whole situation.

No one can believe that the accusations are truth. They're unsure as to whom they should believe in since phrophets are considered emissaries of the gods and its impossible for them to be mistaken. They now found themselves conflicted.


Hope this helps !

Write a Summary of approximately 80/90 words of the following passage:
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

Dolphins are the friendliest sea creatures.  They help sailors who are drowning.  They too live in a complex society.  Furthermore, they behave like humans.  For example, dolphins care for sick dolphins.  They care for their pregnant mothers and protect the weak.  Scientists have suggested that dolphins have a language, perhaps a sign language.  These remarkable mammals may be more intelligent than man.  Man only claims superiority over them because we can kill them more than they can kill us.

Explanation:

A summary of a passage is the reduction of a passage without the loss of the main ideas or the themes.  Needless and irrelevant details are omitted in a summary.  A summary is a brief or shorter version of a longer story, which highlights the main ideas.
