Read the paragraph. Some people think that healthy snacks lack flavor, but that is not true. Popcorn, which was first enjoyed by

the people of Peru over five thousand years ago, is not only healthy but also quite delicious. The high rate of popcorn consumption among Americans supports this claim. Because popcorn is relatively high in nutritional value, is fairly inexpensive, and lends itself to a variety of cooking methods, it is one of the most popular American snack foods. What is the hook in this paragraph? The high rate of popcorn consumption among Americans supports this claim. Some people think that healthy snacks lack flavor, but that is not true.

Answer: Some people think that healthy snacks lack flavour, but that is not true.

The hook is the first one or two sentences of an essay. It works as its introduction. The main purpose of a hook is to grab the reader's attention so that they continue reading the text.

In this case, the hook is telling us that an assumption we might have is actually wrong. This is meant to increase our curiosity about what the rest of the essay is going to discuss.

malfutka [58]

The correct answer is  

A. Texting can cause fatal traffic accidents and misunderstandings between friends.

Because in the left box you have details about how texting may damage your own health.

In the right box it says how it may be dangerous to other people, and even text messages can easily get lost in translation, that means that the reciever may not understand it.

Read this passage from "Notes of a Native Son":
taurus [48]
The correct answer is imagery.

Figurative language is a simile or metaphor -- neither is used here. An allusion is a reference to a well-known person, place, or thing; an allusion is not used here. Parallelism is using similar grammatical structures and does not appear here.

Imagery is a description that appeals to any of the five senses, but especially the visual sense. In this passage, Baldwin is clearly describing the slap (which we can see and hear in our mind) of the child, the pain which reverberates through heaven -- we can visualize this pain reaching out into heaven and embedding itself in the universe.

Due to the visual power of these words, the correct answer is C.
