Correction!!! I read this over a few more times and I think it is the fourth one because it says "words that were once considered slang are now words of full, legitimate standing in our language." It's talking about the the past tense and present tense of slang. So sorry for the confusion

Jefferson delays mentioning the American
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

It draws readers into the argument and establishes that ideas apply to society.

It emphasizes that the principles involved are universal, not just American.

Explanation:

When the Declaration of Independence was to be written, one of the men involved was Thomas Jefferson who at that time was just a young lawyer. Finishing the draft in a few days, he mentions the prime issues of the country, highlighting the importance of a country to run by itself and not through any form of monarchy. After listing the importance of the various rights that a man needs, he mentions the American colonies towards the end of the declaration's introduction. This delay is probably more tactical than intentional, for it draws the readers into the argument and establishes that ideas apply to society. It also laid emphasis on the principles laid down in the declaration, stating that they are universal and not just an American related issue.

I need help, I will give the brainly crown thing and some big points but I need help but ONLY answer if you know it
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

definition of imagery: visually descriptive or figurative language, especially in a literary work.

definition of magical realism: a literary or artistic genre in which realistic narrative and naturalistic technique are combined with surreal elements of dream or fantasy.

definition of suspension of disbelief: i could not find the definition of this one. Is that ok?

1. fantasy and fact with fiction.

2. Magical realism portrays fantastical events in an otherwise realistic tone. It brings fables, folk tales, and myths into contemporary social relevance. Fantasy traits given to characters, such as levitation, telepathy, and telekinesis, help to encompass modern political realities that can be phantasmagorical.

3. The term magical realism was introduced by Franz Roh, a German art critic in 1925. When Roh coined the term he meant it to create an art category that strayed from the strict guidelines of realism, but the term did not name an artistic movement until the 1940s in Latin America and the Caribbean.

4. A literary mode rather than a distinguishable genre, magical realism is characterized by two conflicting perspectives, one based on a so-called rational view of reality and the other on the acceptance of the supernatural as prosaic reality.

5. Magical realism is a genre where magic elements are a natural part in an otherwise mundane, realistic environment. For example, as seen in Julio Cortázar's "La noche boca arriba," an individual experiences two realistic situations simultaneously in the same place but during two different time periods, centuries apart.

6. magical or supernatural elements are presented in an otherwise real-world setting. ... The biggest difference between the two is that fantasy takes place in a world other than our own, whereas magical realism focuses on ordinary people going about their ordinary lives in an ordinary world

7. I think a Horse best depicts MY life

8.a chance for authors to show an alternative to an accepted reality

9. To Focus on a story's realistic, ordinary details instead of its supernatural elements.

10. It gives a sense that there is a change in what usually wouldn't be real.

11.A tone that relates events in a serious or ordinary way
