Answer:

The director could adapt the context of a play by Sahkespeare by replacing some concepts with circumstances of the modern world.

Explanation:

Shakespeare plays were written over a hundred years ago. Although Shakespeare wrote his works trying to fit concepts and circumstances that were current to the time he lived, time passed and society began to change these concepts and to live new circumstances.

For this reason, if a theater director wishes to change a Shakespeare play to make it more familiar to a modern American audience, he / she must modify the concepts and circumstances outdated by current concepts and circumstances that are familiar to the modern audience. This way, the audience can identify with the plot and enjoy the play with greater happiness.

"To persuade my audience to volunteer regularly in their community and to join the Peace Corps after college" is a poorly phrase

klio [65]

Answer:

"To persuade my audience to volunteer regularly in their community and to join the Peace Corps after college" is a poorly phrased specific purpose statement for a classroom speech because it contains more than one specific idea.

Explanation:

In speech writing, we must determine both the general and the specific purpose of our speech before even commencing to write it. A speech can have three types of general purpose: to inform, to persuade/motivate, and to entertain. After deciding on that, we must move on to our specific purpose by taking into consideration our audience, the topic we wish to convey, why we wish to convey it, how we wish etc. Even though we should take all those things into consideration, the specific purpose statement should be concise and focus on one idea. If you double up on ideas, you are probably having a hard time truly deciding what your speech is about. Making a speech too broad is an almost sure way to not get the attention and the results desired.

That is the mistake in the statement, "To persuade my audience to volunteer regularly in their community and to join the Peace Corps after college." The speaker's general purpose is clearly to persuade. But it would be best if he focused on one of those two specific ideas. His speech will have better chances to accomplish its purpose. For instance, an improved option would be simply:

- To persuade my audience to volunteer regularly in their community.

A reference to Walt Whitman's "I Hear America Singing" => "I, Too". Langston Hughes' poem adds the African American identity to Whitman's list of ordinary people who constitute and contribute to American collective identity.

Paradox of social injustice => "I, Too". Hughes depicts the social inequality of black people, who are traditionally confined to servitude. He hopes, however, that this will change eventually.

Uses set meter and rhyme scheme => "From the Dark Tower". The poem's rhyme scheme is ABBA.

Symbol of wasted effort => "From the Dark Tower". Black people are the ones who plant, while white people reap.

Stone of anger and resentment => "From the Dark Tower". It depicts black people's anger at being constantly and systematically oppressed.

Uses free verse => "I, Too". Hughes' poem has a conversational tone. The free verse depicts the inner freedom that the speaker feels, and wants to transform into real freedom and equality.

Betty sets up a lemonade stand and charges $1 per glass. It cost her $50 to set up the stand. Which function gives the profit, p

marusya05 [52]

First of all you want to figure out the equation to break even/ make just enough to pay back the cost it takes to setup. In this case it would be 1g-50=50 but since you need profit you need to edit the function by simply putting a greater than sign replacing the equal sign 1g-50>50. Or you change the 50 on the right side of the first equation with p. 1g-50=p. And profit is the amount you get after taking 50 away from your total income. so p basically equals the term >50
