We can use process of elimination to work out what the best answer is to this question. To fully answer it, however, it is helpful to make sure you know who each author is and what they are famous for. Both are African American writers that wrote about race and inequality.
For choice A, while they were born in different parts of the United States, that does not mean they were born in different cultures, so this is not the best choice.
For choice B, this is very true. Hurston focused mainly on the woman's role while Baldwin focused on the man's. This is a good choice for this question.
For choice C, we would need to see a more in depth excerpt or do research to fully determine if this is the best answer, but from what I know about the authors and looking over their biographies, it's safe to say that they had very similar ideas about racism in America.
For choice D, they both explore painful topics because they are exploring what racism and inequality is in general in America. Because of this, this choice is not the best answer.
Based on our elimination, choice B is the best option here.
Among the choices, letter B is the most complex. This is because it uses two clauses just to deliver its meaning. Jamming a lot of clauses in one sentence would cause the reader to be 'breathless'. A good sentence must be short enough to be read in one breath, but precise in meaning. One clause could be enough. If you want to add more information, you can use conjunctions or transition words. But do not overdo it.
Answer:
Within a small chamber, an internal combustion engine combines a precisely measured mix of fuel (typically petrol or diesel) and air. Once ignited, this explosive combination causes an expansion of hot, pressurized gases to exit the chamber, typically via pistons or a turbine. Thus the chemical energy is converted, albeit often not very efficiently, into mechanical energy which can then be used to power motors and drive machines.
Figurative language is one of the most important elements of any literary texts. It's like the spice and seasoning of a dish, it gives taste to it.
"A Tribute to a Dog" is a speech made by Senator George Graham Vest as his closing argument for his client's dog shot and killed by his neighbor. Some examples of the figurative language used in the text are the following: <span>
♣ </span>He will sleep on the cold ground, where the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he may be near his master’s side. <span>(Personification)
♣ </span><span>The one absolutely unselfish friend that a man
can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him and the one that
never proves ungrateful or treacherous is his dog.</span><span> (Personification)
♣ </span>A man’s dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness (Hyperbole)
♣ <span>He guards the sleep of his pauper master as if he were a prince. (Metaphor)
♣ H</span><span>e is as constant in his love as the sun in its journey to the heavens. (Simile)
These are just a few of the figurative languages used in the text, there' still more. But these ones give more impact to the whole text. It makes it more convincing and meaningful. For sure because of this speech, his side won the case. </span>
A hoax can be intended with multiple purposes. Although many times a hoax can be a joke, or for personal entertainment... At times, it can also be with the intention to send out a message, which can be considered a "social change".
For example, let's say hackers hack into international banking systems. Although it may be a hoax, and without the intention to actually steal/for personal entertainment. It could be with the intention to prove that international banking systems need to improve their security.
That creates a social change.
It starts making society realizes their strengths as well as their weaknesses. It makes them value what they have, and also make them think about what they can improve on.
