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.

What does rusesabagina mean when he says that words are powerful tools of life, that they "may be the only ones?"
storchak [24]
Paul Rusesabagina might mean that words have the power to make people act or react in a certain situations. Let´s take an example from his text, he asked the question "What had caused this to happen? Very simple: words" He is referring to a "cool" guy who ends up being a militar carrying guns so Paul blames his parents because he thinks that he might have been told "over and over again" how stupid he was, how he never would be attractive or physically fit. This was used to enforce the power of the elite. So this might be considered a clear case in which  due to words a person might decide his future. <span />

Which element of Endgame helps establish the idea of circularity?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

C). Beckett begins with the idea of endings.

Explanation:

'Endgame' by Samuel Beckett works upon the existentialist philosophy and belongs to the 'theater of absurd.' It is often considered as the follow up of Beckett's classic work 'Waiting for Godot.'

As per the question, <u>the play authorizes the idea of circularity as the play begins and ends on the same note i.e. 'intertwining of beginning and end</u>.' It is based upon the key idea of 'hopelessness' and the characters are endlessly waiting for 'nothing' but death. Clove internally feels 'he need to live' and plans of leaving but could not and goes back to the same situation(reflects absurdity and nothingness). Thus, the entire play moves around this very idea and hence, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.

Answer:

First Muir described how he slept sometimes without supper, and then he says he had no difficulty finding a loaf of bread at the farmers' houses. He starts of the paragraph with a complaint of sleeping without blankets, and starts to transition again into nature and its beauty. In the paragraph, Muir says "Storms, thunderclouds, winds in the woods—were welcomed as friends;" when we hear storms, thunderclouds, winds, etc. it brings fear, damage, but Muir then says "were welcomed as friends."

Which details develop the central idea that the Grimms collected stories to preserve culture? Check all that apply.
hjlf

“The Grimm Brothers recorded the stories because fewer and fewer people were collecting and preserving them”

By the time the Grimm Brothers started collecting German folk stories ( the nineteenth century) German was a conglomeration of about 200 different kingdoms , not a sole country. Their effort was to revive the national culture.  

“Their stories reveal truths about the conditions people lived in when the tales were recorded. “ and "The tales of the Grimm Brothers demonstrate how language and customs can create a bond between people."

The brothers Grimm transcribed the many stories they had learned over the years, but they did it in a more soft language and contente, suitable for many audiences. So theses stories could spread -preserving the national culture. Besides the folklore, they published about language, grammar, and old sayings.  

Their literature contribution is perceived until today in german cultural heritage.
