It was one of those days that I didn't mind going to school because the weather was so pretty. The sky was overcast with clouds,

and the air felt like a warm bath. I don't think I ever felt that clean before. When I got home, I had to mow the lawn for my allowance, and I didn't mind one bit. I just listened to the music, and breathed in the day, and remembered things. Things like walking around the neighborhood and looking at the houses and the lawns and the colorful trees and having that be enough.
How would this passage be different if it had been written in an ironic tone? How would the meaning of the passage change? How might that affect the theme?

The excerpt above is from "The Perks of Being a Wallflower". The lines are written in sharp honesty and vulnerability. If it is written in an ironic tone, it means that the narrator is not satisfied with his life. Theme of the story would become different because if would lose the sincere type of narration of the boy who is coming of age.

The text above states how the speaker feels happy to face a new day, and how he wants to appreciate the beauty of everything that surrounds him. He has a positive attitude, and even his chores are delightful to him. If the text had been written in an ironic tone, this would imply that the speaker is in fact dissatisfied with his life, and that he does not want to face any of his duties. This would severely affect the meaning and theme of the passage, as it would change his positive outlook in life to one of negativity and displeasure.

Which sentence is written correctly? The, local market, has the freshest produce and meats in town. Takeko, a painting student o
Alchen [17]

Answer:

Sarah, Matt's wife, works as a business software developer.

Explanation:

The noun Sarah preceding the appositive Matt's wife provides sufficient identification on its own, so we have to use commas around the appositive.

These sentences are written incorrectly:

The, local market, has the freshest produce and meats in town. We don't need to use commas around the subject <em>local market</em>.

Takeko, a painting student offered to help with a sculpting demonstration.

We need to use commas around the appositive <em>a painting student</em>.

The store offers, many products, which can be personalized with your initials. No commas are needed.

Jefferson delays mentioning the American
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

It draws readers into the argument and establishes that ideas apply to society.

It emphasizes that the principles involved are universal, not just American.

Explanation:

When the Declaration of Independence was to be written, one of the men involved was Thomas Jefferson who at that time was just a young lawyer. Finishing the draft in a few days, he mentions the prime issues of the country, highlighting the importance of a country to run by itself and not through any form of monarchy. After listing the importance of the various rights that a man needs, he mentions the American colonies towards the end of the declaration's introduction. This delay is probably more tactical than intentional, for it draws the readers into the argument and establishes that ideas apply to society. It also laid emphasis on the principles laid down in the declaration, stating that they are universal and not just an American related issue.
