Read the passage. The salaries of athletes who take part in professional sports are well earned and well deserved. These athlete

s benefit more than just fans like me. In a recent survey, 92 percent of children stated that they viewed at least one athlete as a role model; 75 percent go on to state that they learn about fair play and sportsmanship from professional athletes. While not all athletes exhibit sportsmanship, most kids focus on athletes with admirable traits, since 76 percent of children surveyed agree that it is never okay to taunt an opponent. Which statement best evaluates the evidence used in this argument? The author presents empirical evidence, then uses logical evidence to highlight the connection between the data and the claim. The author focuses on logical evidence, then uses anecdotal evidence to share children’s viewpoints. The author uses primarily anecdotal evidence, as a fan of professional athletes, then uses empirical evidence to provide support. The author employs empirical, logical, and anecdotal evidence equally to support the claim with data, common sense, and a short narrative.

Answer:

The author presents empirical evidence, then uses logical evidence to highlight the connection between the data and the claim.

Explanation:

Empirical evidence is evidence gathered through observation and experience that supports the claim. Logical evidence is the use of data to support the claim. Anecdotal evidence is a small story that supports the claim. There is no anecdotal evidence in the passage, because the author does not tell a story. Any answer that speaks of anecdotal evidence should be eliminated. This only leaves the first choice. There's plenty of logical evidence in all of the data that is included in the passage.

Summarize the short story, "Throught the Tunnel"? PLEASE HELP!!!
dimulka [17.4K]
The correct answer is C. Jerry challenges himself for more.

Being a young boy, he has felt for a long time as if he was in charge of his mother and vice versa. Both of them are overprotective. Jerry seeks independence, yet he is afraid of abandoning his widowed mother. When he separates from her to go to another beach, he feels as if he was betraying her. But his urge to go his own way is stronger. True, he feels the peer pressure of those boys, and is afraid of not being able to beat the challenge they posed for him. But his real, deep and intimate urge is to challenge himself, and not compete with them. When he dives through that tunnel under the sea, he risks his life. But he doesn't give up, as that venture is his own, and he wants to experience it. Once he beat that challenge, he goes back to his mother, calm and serene, and doesn't even feel a need to tell her about it. He is more mature and independent now than he was at the beginning of the story.

What purpose does the Federal officer’s point of view serve in the story? (horseman in the sky)
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The Federal officer's  point of view provided with an insight into the character's experience before revealing the true depths of his choice.

Explanation:

Ambrose Bierce in the story "A Horseman in the Sky" has used the third person omniscient point of view. The Third Person Omniscient point of view is the one in which the narrator is omniscient (is not a part or character of the story) but knows the thoughts and feelings of all the characters.

Ambrose creates a shift in this point of view at the end of the story when the story is told from the federal officer's point of view. <u>This shift in the point of view helped the readers to know the thoughts of the character's experience before revealing the truth</u>. The federal officer in the story saw the horseman falling down the cliff which he picturized as a beautiful horse looking like it is flying. The flying horseman is compared to some new Apocalypse found in the apocalyptic book of Apostle John. This comparison reveals the end times stated in the book of Revelation.
