Answer:

1. Option B: CODDLED

2. Option A: DEMAGOGUE

Explanation:

<em><u>1.      Because he was </u></em><em><u>CODDLED </u></em><em><u>as a child, Rob was a rather self-centred teenager.</u></em>

The correct option is B: Coddled because the adjective refers to the parenting method and how it resulted in his posterior self-centred personal feature.

<u>Option A: Bourgeois </u>cannot be the correct one because it is more related with the social position that someone has, which mustn´t have a direct relationship with his self-centred behaviour; <u>option C:</u> Despotic is not correct because it doesn´t respect the rule of action-reaction that the sentence needs to express; <u>option D:</u> Dubious is not the one because in a contextual view of the sentence it doesn’t make sense.

Tip: Notice that to fill this blank you need an adjective.

<u><em>2.      After hearing the raucous, cheering response to Adam’s speech, Mr James feared that his new student body president might be an amateur </em></u><u><em>DEMAGOGUE</em></u><u><em>.</em></u>

The correct option is A: Demagogue because, thinking in the sentence context, the noun that here appears corresponds to the reaction that Adam´s speech had. <u>Option B: Despot </u>can´t be the correct one because if it were elected the sentence would be a contradiction: a despot one doesn´t provoke a raucous and cheering response. <u>Option C: </u>enigma is not adequate to the context by the same reasons of<u> option B </u>(it doesn´t apply if we consider the sentence´s meaning), and finally <u>option D</u>: bourgeois is not the one because it doesn´t make sense since it is not related to the statement of the sentence.

Tip: Notice that to fill this blank you need a noun.

In at least 150 words, discuss in what ways the Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass make a powerful case against slavery
Alenkinab [10]

Douglass was separated from his Harriet Bailey, his mother, soon after he was born as he tells us through his writings.


- ¨Never having enjoyed, to any considerable extent, her soothing presence, her tender and watchful care, I received the tidings of [my mother’s] death with much the same emotions I should have probably felt at the death of a stranger¨


In Chapter I of the Narrative, Douglass explains that his master separates him from his mother soon after his birth. This separation ensured that Douglass did not develop a family bond toward his mother. Douglass talks about how a slave is “shaped,” beginning at birth. He explains the ways by which slave owners alter social bonds and the natural processes of life in order to transform men into slaves. This process begins at birth. Slave traders first remove a child from his family, and Douglass shows how this destroys the child’s support and sense of a personal history.


In this quotation, Douglass uses adjectives like “soothing” and “tender” to re-create the childhood he would have known if his mother had been present. Douglass often recreates this assertion in his narrative in order to contrast normal stages of childhood development with the quality of development that he knew as a child.


His focus on the family structure and the awful moment of his mother’s death is typical of the conventions of nineteenth-century sentimental narratives. The destruction of family structure would have saddened readers and appeared to be a signal of the larger moral illnesses of the culture. Douglass, like many nineteenth-century authors, shows how social injustice can be expressed through the breakdown of a family structure. Douglass became deeply engaged with the abolitionist movement as both a writer and an orator.

How does the final sentence of the article contribute to the meaning of the text?: "We bet nobody's gotten into a fight while wa
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The final sentence contributes to the end o the article to show we might have fun by doing something one way instead of the other and that we don't know we can enjoy it before doing it.

Explanation:

The sentences are used to point out that sometimes we act based on someone else's thoughts or opinions, and that might be not true. Also, sometimes we can find incredible experiences by trying to achieve our objectives by doing one action instead of others. That there is an infinite amount of probability we can't perceive what could be of value because we have not experienced it.
