marishachu [46]

Answer:

E

Explanation:

The type of presentation that will most likely benefit Janie in her meeting with the school board will be a persuasive oral one. Since Janie is already an outspoken advocate, it will not be difficult for her to put together an inspiring and convincing presentation.

It would no be a good idea for Janie to present pictures of school uniforms that are attractive because that would detract from her argument. Nor would it be a good idea for Janie to show the school board unflattering images of students in school uniforms as this would seem immature.

An audio presentation would not be nearly as effective face to face with the school board as an oral presentation, and a question-and-answer is likely to take place anyway after Janie's speech.

juin [17]

Answer:

“A Retrieved Reformation”

1. At the beginning of the story, Ben Price rightly thinks that the bank robberies under investigation are committed by Jimmy Valentine, because they bear his signature style.

2. Towards the end of the story, Ben Price's opinion changed completely.  Despite Jimmy Valentine's changed identity, Ben Price, correctly recognized Jimmy Valentine after the latter confirmed his true identity by unknowingly demonstrating his stylish ingenuity by opening the locked door.  Since, Jimmy Valentine decided to surrender himself for arrest, Ben Price must have concluded that Jimmy was actually a changed man, especially now that he had fallen in love with Annabel.

Explanation:

O. Henry, the author of “A Retrieved Reformation” published the short story in 1903.  The story narrated how an ex-convict, who was wanted for a series of bank robberies, suddenly repented and relinquished the life of crime because he had fallen in love with a woman.

In the context of her article, what does Liaugminas mean by "intelligent citizens"? How has the meaning of this term changed fro
vova2212 [387]

In the article "How the Media Twists the News," Sheila Gribben Liaugminas explains that "intelligent news consumers" are those who pay attention to the ways in which media presents the news. She argues that being this intelligent consumer means that you realize that not everything you hear is valid, well-researched or unbiased. Moreover, an "intelligent citizen" employs this well-researched information to act in society. I believe that through the use of these two terms, the author makes a strong and valid call to action. She is effective when it comes to explaining that this is a vital task for all citizens. Moreover, she is explicit in how not doing so can affect our society and increase ignorance among the public.
