Which uses the correct modifiers for formal writing?

English

Rudik [331]2 years ago

The correct answer is the first option - <span>We all wanted to win so badly that we were practically willing the ball through the hoop. 
You should write 'badly' and not 'bad' because you need to use the adverb rather than the adjective to modify the verb 'to win.' To use the adjective 'bad' here is really colloquial (and grammatically incorrect) so it cannot be used in formal writing, but rather only in informal speech.

2. Review the author’s use of the word “American” throughout Chunk 2. How is the narrator using the word to convey her feelings
Damm [24]

Answer:

Whenever the author uses the word <em>American </em>with quotation marks, it is to ridicule the Americanized people who started believing they are truly American and decided to leave behind their heritage and history. The author, Anzia Yezierska, talks about how she finally moved to America in order to pursue her dreams, happiness, and financial stability, and started living with and working for a family from the same Polish village she comes from. The family completely forgot about where they come from and pretended they were truly American, or rather "American" as Yezierska would put it.

Through this usage, we can see how quickly the author's thoughts and feelings about the "land of freedom" changed. She moved there in order to earn her own money and finally be happy. However, what she encountered was loneliness, misunderstanding, shame, hatred, inadequacy, etc. which she wasn't hoping for. Therefore, her feelings about America shifted from childish exhilaration towards sad acceptance and ultimately hatred.

Which of these examples shows contradictions in the character of Hally in "Master Harold". . . and the Boys?
natka813 [3]

<span>The correct answer should be “Hally is friendly with Willie and Sam but then demands they call him Master Harold”. </span>

<span>
Let’s keep in mind that the play is set in a racist, post-WWII South Africa, in which ruled the ‘white-only’ policy. Harold “Hally” is a 17-year-old teenage boy who lives with a drunken father, who is a veteran, and a mother who does not have the strength to stand up to her husband. Both his parents are racist, and so he’s been taught. But Hally builds a sort of friendship with the two black servants, Willie and Sam, although this friendship id hidden by the distance that had to be kept between master and servant. </span>

1. In Around the World in Eighty Days, Phileas Fogg makes an impulsive wager that he can travel around the world in eighty days
Fittoniya [83]
It affects the story because it makes it more objective. Passepartout doesn't have a personal bias in the matter and doesn't have anything to prove so he doesn't react impulsively and affectionately. You can use this idea and expand it a bit to get the two necessary paragraphs. Be sure to add citations from the actual book.
