Answer: Alvarez traces how Trujillo demanded the tributes, how her family reacted, and how it was finally her mother’s turn to pay tribute.

In these lines, Alvarez develops the idea by going from the general to the specific. First, she explains to us how Trujillo demanded tributes from everyone, and how he made this vital for anyone who wanted to have a life in the country. She then tells us how this affected her family, and their plans to escape. Finally, Alvarez explains the impact this had on her mother especifically, when it was her turn to pay tribute.

After reading the assigned text, what did you learn are some of the most important ideas in stories from Iceland? Are Icelandic
koban [17]

Answer:

I am not familiar with many Icelandic folk tales, so obviously these are unfamiliar to me. When I researched some Icelandic folk tales, I realized that most of them have either trolls or elves in them. This is very interesting, and I wanted to know more about why this was, so I looked it up. It seems that there are so many trolls and elves in the folk tales because they are deeply rooted in the culture of Iceland. Maybe some folk stories from around here have elves or trolls in them, but certainly not as much as the Icelandic ones. I also wonder I there are some Icelandic folk stories that do not have these common themes in them, Though there probably are. Because we can see a pattern in Icelandic folk tales, I wonder if there is a noticeable pattern in folk stories from around here, but I'll research that later.

Gisella is planning a speech advocating that all students be required to take two years of a foreign language prior to graduatio
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Gisella is using the <u>primacy principle.</u>

Explanation:

As Gisella knows that the audience is against her position, she presents her main argument for students taking two years of a foreign language before graduating at the beginning of her speech so that the audience remembers the main point of taking these classes.

In other words, the primacy principle states that a person mostly remembers what the speaker says at the beginning of the speech, and the person will retain less information as time goes by. That is why Gisella must present her main argument at the beginning of the speech.
