Read the following paragraph. I believe that the “Read Books, Share the Love” advertisement effectively uses the association tec

hnique to convince people to read more books. The advertisement targets parents who perhaps could easily associate the children in the picture with their own children. In the ad, a mother and father are reading a book to their two young children. It seems that this has a positive connotation of intimacy and love. Maybe the image implies that reading is not just intellectually beneficial, but that it creates a closer bond between parents and their children. Because of this association technique, parents are persuaded to read to their children. Most parents certainly would want their children to do well academically and feel loved at the same time. Therefore, this ad effectively encourages literacy. Which of the following revisions would most likely improve this paragraph? a better explanation of the target audience the elimination of passive language more specific details from the ad a topic sentence

The correct answer is B. The elimination of passive language

Explanation:

The text presented in the question describes in a detailed way an advertisement and the way this is effective to persuade people to read books, especially to persuade parents to read with their children. In terms of structure, this paragraph introduces a clear topic sentence that summarizes the content of the paragraph "I believe that the “Read Books, Share the Love” advertisement effectively uses the association technique to convince people to read more books", then the author provides multiple details to describe the advertising, its target language and the connection between this and the purpose of the advertising and a concluding sentence, which makes this paragraph correct in terms of structure. However, the author uses passive language as in "parents are persuaded to read their children", that in terms of style should be avoided and replaced by active language such as "the advertising persuades parents to read their children". Therefore, the best way to improve this paragraph is to eliminate passive language as this would make the style of the text consistent.

Read the passage below and answer the question.Whoso would be a man must be a nonconformist. He who would gather immortal palms
____ [38]

Answer:

Believe in yourself instead of conforming to the values of others.

Explanation:

Philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson in his essay "Self Reliance" argue about the effect of polite society on an individual's personal growth. Only self sufficiency is capable of providing freedom to an individual in discovering their true self and worth, bringing forth true independence on the individual.

He emphasized on the importance of an individual to follow their own voices rather than trying to conform to the dictates and values set by the society. He posits the issue of self reliance in oneself and the importance of the imaginary thinking capacity of an individual. He also argues that the most important realization for an individual is trusting himself. He promotes self reliance as an ideal virtue for everyone. "Believe in yourself instead of conforming to the values of others" best sums up the passage provided in the question.

This line points that the author and her compatriots have already transformed America: <span>"The remaining struggle for me is to make the American readership, meaning the editorial and publishing industries as well, acknowledge the same fact."

The author already considers herself as an American writer in the American writing mainstream, she is only just finding ways on how she can further expand this and make people more aware of the issues that many immigrants face in America.</span>

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Add a comma after "environmentalism".

Explanation:

Punctuation is the most important part of a sentence. any misplacement or elimination of punctuation marks can change the entire meaning of a sentence.

In the given sentence, the grammatical error is in the punctuation mark. A comma (,) should be placed after the word "environmentalism."

So, the sentence with the correct punctuation mark would be:

<em>"Henry David Thoreau, often known as the father of environmentalism, wrote the book entitled Walden."</em>

The comma is placed after the word "environmentalism" because the phrase "often known as the father of environmentalism" is a modifier.

So, the correct answer is the last option.
