Choose the sentence below that best represents a speeches theme.
lakkis [162]

To complete your question, the answer choice is as follows

a. Our Country has worked hard to provide equal rights for people.

b. Rosa Parks was a great American civil rights leader.

c. Freedom and equality are worth great sacrifice.

d Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on a bus for a white woman.

The sentence that best represents a speech’s theme is "Freedom and equality are worth great sacrifice". This implies the correct answer is C.

<h2>Further Explanation</h2>

A speeches theme should be general and be very concise enough to describe the details of a speech without giving the full details of the content of the speech. The speech theme should be centered mainly on the core values and the topics to be discussed.

A speeches theme must also be the subject that should be developed in a speech and from the options provided only “Freedom and equality are worth great sacrifice” serves this particular purpose.

Also, carefully analyzing other answer choices, you will see they are not issues that should be developed instead they are parts of the speech that will support the argument on the subject.  

However, the introduction of your speech is very important mainly because it points out what your speech is all about. It tells the audience or the listeners the purpose of your speech.

Consider how cultural diversity defines American society and literature. Is the American identity static or fluid over time? How
noname [10]

Answer:

The American society is composed of an ethnical mix, with members of many nations which blend into one unique American identity, while keeping their authenticity. This authenticity can be seen clearly in the cultural diversity. Just like any other identity, American is fluid over time. It changes and alters, in accordance with societal changes. Identities are not carved in stone. While we have every right to actively participate in the process of fashioning our identities, they still have a relative autonomy, and change over time. For example, if I am an Italian immigrant who lives in the U.S., I still have every right to claim my Italian cultural inheritance, but it doesn't make me less of an American. By living in America, I am adopting new cultural traits. My children will have their own perception of their cultural identity that doesn't have to be the same as mine.

Read this sentence from the passage.
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Hello. You did not enter the answer options, but the term "previously perused paperbacks" is an euphemism for the term "softcover books" or "flimsy books".

Explanation:

Euphemism is a figure of speech that is used to relieve a term, that is, euphemism allows the author to use a term that softens the sentence and has a milder and more pleasant meaning, to replace another term, which is more aggressive , can cause pelomic and discomfort to the reader.

In this case, we can say that the author uses the term "previously perused paperbacks" as an euphemism when referring to books with a soft, soft and rigid cover.

Which sample fairly represents the population? Select two options.
Ad libitum [116K]

Option 1:

Measuring the heights of every fiftieth person on the school roster to determine the average heights of the boys in the school

Comment: this might not be a good idea for fairness as we only wish to determine average height of the boys. Taking a group of 50 people randomly, might not give us the same number of boys every time.

Option 2: 

Calling every third person on the soccer team’s roster to determine how many of the team members have completed their fundraising assignment 

Comment: The context doesn't seem to need a sampling. The number of players in a soccer team is considerably small. We can find exact data by asking in person.

Option 3:

Observing every person walking down Main Street at 5 p.m. one evening to determine the percentage of people who wear glasses

Comment: To get a more accurate result and fairer sampling, the period of observing could have been longer, for example, observing for 12 hours on that day, or an alternative is to observe at 5 pm for 7 days in a row. It could happen that no one walking down the Main street precisely at 5 pm wears glasses, or it could happen the other way around.

Option 4: 

Sending a confidential e-mail survey to every one-hundredth parent in the school district to determine the overall satisfaction of the residents of the town taking a poll in the lunch room (where all students currently have to eat lunch) to determine the number of students who want to be able to leave campus during lunch.

Comment: This sampling does fairly represent the population, although it might be an idea to scale down the sample population, i.e. every fiftieth parent. 

Answer: Option 4
