The lines from Bob Kaufman's "Unanimity Has Been Achieved, Not a Dot Less for Its Accidentalness" conveys that Kaufman sees mental hospitals and institutionalization as inhumane, ineffective, and uncaring. The surgeons only thinks about how well equipped they are with their machines and they are excited to use this to people with mental illness without caring the fact that it might be harmful to them.

g100num [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. subjective.

In order to complete this sentence, you need to use a subjective pronoun. That pronoun would be SHE, as in - '... she decided to train for the marathon herself.' An objective pronoun would be HER, which is obviously incorrect. An intensive and a reflexive pronouns look the same - HERSELF. As a matter of fact, there is an intensive pronoun in the sentence above - the last word.

In the following conversation, which discussion technique does Anna most clearly show?
Alik [6]

C. Asking clarifying questions.

Ramona first invites Anna to "discuss any issues or questions". Anna begins by explaining her thinking process. She tells her group what her first thoughts were about the theme of the article. Then, she explains how her thinking changed. She finishes by asking a clarifying question about the theme of the article. Her question is very simple and does not hold any bias. She's not asking rhetorical questions because she truly wants to know the answer since she doesn't understand. She is not asking research questions that would involve more work.
