The type of biased language is, "b. ability," mainly because Haley states, "Would you get a move on? Are you deaf?" and it's insulting Kenneth's ability, as if she was saying he can't hear what's clearly being said.

In at least one hundred words, define burlesque humor and cite at least one example of it from The Adventures of Huckleberry Fin
nydimaria [60]

Burlesque humor is a literary device which is used to cause laughter. This could be done in many ways: by caricaturing the serious topic or just treating the subjects ridiculously. In English, it has been used since 17th century. Early successful users of burlesque include Shakespeare, Cervantes and Chaucer.  

One example of burlesque in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is Huck's attempt to rescue Jim after learning that he has been sold. The lines "All right then, I'll go to Hell to rescue Jim out of slavery" mention this event. The plan to save Jim is described in a literary manner which is known as burlesque. Tom's thoughts on escaping Jim and the humor alongside with it is a notable example.

The title of Michelle’s speech is: Our Privacy on the Internet Should Be More Protected. Which of the following would be the bes
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

d. Each person has the fundamental right to have absolute control over his or her personal information

Explanation:

When we take the title of the speech into consideration - "Our Privacy on the Internet Should Be More Protected" - the best option of a thesis statement seems to be letter d. A thesis statement consists of one or two sentences with the purpose of informing the reader about the author's opinion and the subject of what will be read, as well as guide the author so that they won't lose focus.

Letter a would be a good option if it didn't mention "genetic information". That topic takes a very specific detour away from the subject of privacy. They can be related, but that is not what we expect after reading the title.

Letter b is not a statement at all. The question asked has the intention of making the reader curious, but does not state the author's opinion.

Letter c is not a thesis statement due to its length. It already develops the argument, which should be done in the speech or essay's body.

That leaves us with letter d. It's a one-sentence statement in which we find the author's opinion and which gives us an idea of what will be developed in the speech or essay.
