Answer:

  • The context of this excerpt is to show the sadness and wear that the narrator is feeling, but there is someone who relieves this burden of the life of the narrator.
  • The metaphor present in the text is comparing this person who leaves the narrator happy with the sun.
  • The meaning of the metaphor is to say that this person has a good effect on the life of the narrator, similar to the good effect that the sun has on the lives of all people.

Explanation:

  • Context is the relationship between the text and the situation in which it occurs within the text. It is the set of circumstances in which the message to be emitted is produced - place and time, transmitter and receiver, etc. - and that allow their correct understanding.
  • Metaphor is one of the figures of subjective language of comparison, which values ​​by the approximation of two different things, beings, or entities, from a similar characteristic between them

Write an essay to present an argument that either supports or opposes the decision to award a singer-songwriter the Nobel Prize
stich3 [128]

The Nobel Prize for Literature aims to reward a writer, regardless of his nationality, who has developed a literary work of the highest quality and remarkable meaning that must be disseminated and awarded.

In one of the Nobel Prize for Literature, Bob Dylan, a musician and composer was awarded and had the honor of receiving this award, which generated a great debate within the literary society that presented controversial reasons for this permission. That's because Dylan was not a writer but a musician, causing many not to believe that he should receive an award for literary works.

However, we must not forget that music is nothing more than sung poetry and like all poetry, it must be written with literary devices, correct grammar, coherence, cohesion, rhyme, tone and all the other factors that make up a literary work. . A composer is a writer, and is one of the most notable writers, since the music must convey a sunjunctive message, but full of meaning.

Based on this, we can say that it is impossible to doubt the merit of Bob Dylan and any other composer to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature, since his work is nothing more than a literary work.

What evidence does President Obama use to support the claim that the child-refugee problem needs to be addressed and fixed? Sele
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

C). Obama uses logical evidence, since it is reasonable to state that refugees want homes of their own .

E). Obama uses anecdotal evidence, since he shares a personal experience he has had with a refugee.

Explanation:

The authors employ a variety of evidences to support and substantiate their claim in order to establish its credibility before the readers and gain their acceptance.

In the given speech, the United States president employs <u>logical evidence</u> by stating that refugees want homes of their own reasonably as they have been 'surviving on rations and aids till now' which helps in logically substantiating his claim that the issue of child-refugee needs attention and address in order to fix it permanently. He further employs <u>anecdotal evidence</u> by relating his personal experience with the refugee that helps gain audience's emotions of sympathy and concern over the issue(as they suffered unspeakable abuse...they pray..someone rescue them form torment'). Thus, these evidence not only support his claim but also elicits intended response from the audience. Therefore, <u>options C and E</u> are the correct answers.
