Answer: A - agitation

Explanation:

We noticed synonyms in the passage as it calmed down, as it was not calm; convulsively - another synonym for agitation; an intelligible prayer - with a sense of agitation.

Answer:

C) Happiness

Explanation:

The word "felicity" refers to "happiness." In this excerpt, the author wants to show that the person in question went from a feeling of agitation and stress to one of happiness. We can also observe this in the fact that the person suddenly "became calmer and more happy" when he realized that he was actually happy, or that he was in a state of "felicity."

Read the passage from "Ode on a Grecian Urn."
galben [10]

Answer:

D. "Love."

Explanation:

John Keats's "Ode on a Grecian Urn" is a recollection of when the poet addresses an ancient Grecian Urn. The lines in the question are from the second stanza of the poem.

This ancient item has a picture of a young man and his lover, him playing a pipe and she lying under a tree. Keats  exclaims that the unheard melodies that he is playing are much sweeter than anything else as they are unaffected by time. The young man may not be able to kiss his love but he should not worry for they are already engraved in the picture which will forever stay. They are frozen in time, with their beauty intact and their love will last forever no matter how time goes.

"To persuade my audience to volunteer regularly in their community and to join the Peace Corps after college" is a poorly phrase
klio [65]

Answer:

"To persuade my audience to volunteer regularly in their community and to join the Peace Corps after college" is a poorly phrased specific purpose statement for a classroom speech because it <u>contains more than one specific idea.</u>

Explanation:

In speech writing, we must determine both the general and the specific purpose of our speech before even commencing to write it. A speech can have three types of general purpose: to inform, to persuade/motivate, and to entertain. After deciding on that, <u>we must move on to our specific purpose by taking into consideration our audience, the topic we wish to convey, why we wish to convey it, how we wish etc. Even though we should take all those things into consideration, </u><u>the specific purpose statement should be concise and focus on one idea</u><u>. If you double up on ideas, you are probably having a hard time truly deciding what your speech is about. Making a speech too broad is an almost sure way to not get the attention and the results desired.</u>

That is the mistake in the statement, "To persuade my audience to volunteer regularly in their community and to join the Peace Corps after college." The speaker's general purpose is clearly to persuade. But it would be best if he focused on one of those two specific ideas. His speech will have better chances to accomplish its purpose. For instance, an improved option would be simply:

- To persuade my audience to volunteer regularly in their community.

Answer:

The correct answers are:

The best definition of "scrub suit" is: a protective item of clothing.

A clue to the meaning of "scrub suit" is: <em>She took off all her clothes, put on a long-sleeved scrub suit, and stood before the door that led inward, blue light falling on her face. She passes security levels before putting the suit on.</em>

Explanation:

A <em>scrub suit</em> refers to the sanitary clothes worn by doctors and another hospital stuff while performing and assisting a medical intervention or operation.

In the excerpt, we can notice that the writer uses this term in order to describe preparations of a doctor before passing through the door with a sensor which led to the operation room.
