Read the two passages about school uniforms. Passage 1 "What should I wear today? Will this help me fit in?” If we listen to rec

ent studies, which reveal the impact that school uniforms have, our children no longer have to ask themselves those questions. Uniforms decrease fighting. Uniforms decrease drug use. Uniforms decrease vandalism. There is no other possible solution to fix our schools. Passage 2 When schools introduce uniforms, students become complacent, no longer interested in individuality. When schools introduce uniforms, schools lose their identities, blending in to look the same as other schools. When schools introduce uniforms, what is the true cost? The unfortunate answer will come as no surprise. Which statement compares the rhetorical techniques used in the arguments? Both passages use rhetorical questions and repetition. Both passages use parallelism and understatements. Passage 1 uses tricolon and an overstatement, while passage 2 uses anaphora and a rhetorical question. Passage 1 uses an understatement and rhetorical questions, while passage 2 uses an overstatement and an allusion.

Passage 1 uses tricolon and an overstatement, while passage 2 uses anaphora and a rhetorical question.

In passage 1 the tricolon is "Uniforms decrease fighting. Uniforms decrease drug use. Uniforms decrease vandalism." It is a series of 3 parallel clauses. The overstatement is "There is no other possible solution to fix our schools." Passage 2 uses anaphora when it repeats the beginning phrase "When schools introduce uniforms". The rhetorical question in passage 2 is "what is the true cost?"

The following sentence from The Importance of Being Earnest is an example of which dramatic element?
anyanavicka [17]
These are stage directions (A). As you probably know, The Importance of being Earnest is a play. This scene is not one that would be read out to the audience, it is what the audience would see on stage, ie stage directions. Since you are reading the play's script and cannot see the action on stage, stage directions have been provided for you in your text.

How is suspense handled differently in different mediums?
vampirchik [111]
There are many ways to convey suspense. In movies, you can do it with choosing specific tunes in the background and making sets that look eerie or by zooming in on people's faces (which was an old method). In music you can slow the tempo down and add some random high pitched notes from time to time such as those found in old horror films or classical tunes. In books, it is usually done through descriptions of the unknown or mysterious.

In a group discussion, a participant says, "Frida Kahlo would never have given up on art." How would you respond to share your v
Semenov [28]

Answer:

I also agree with this statement because the only thing Frida Kahlo had was art. As you know, she suffered a trolley-car accident and art was her only salvation. So, we could say that painting helped Frida to express her feelings and overcome the hardest moments in her life.

Explanation:

Frida Kahlo (1907-1954) was the most famous Mexican painter, thanks to her portraits, self-portraits, and paintings inspired by Mexican nature, history, and society.

She was attending medical school until a traffic accident, which made her partially disabled and caused her a lot of physical pain and health problems.

The painting was her only distraction from her health and private problems, which was also was confirmed with her numerous quotes about art, as:

“Painting completed my life”, “The only thing I know is that I paint because I need to, and I paint whatever passes through my head without any other consideration”, etc.
