Jefferson delays mentioning the American

English
1 answer:
Dafna11 [192]1 year ago
3 0

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.

So now on nights when my mother presented her tests, I performed listlessly, my head propped on one arm. I pretended to be bored
Natalka [10]

Answer:

I believe three options can be chosen:

  1. She wants her mother to feel differently about her.
  2. She feels a strong need for independence.
  3. She wants to influence her mother’s behavior.

Explanation:

This excerpt is part of the short story "Two Kinds", by Amy Tan. The main character, June, is expected to become a prodigy child by her mother, Suyuan. Her mother quizzes her on different subjects and demands that she take piano lessons.

At a certain point, June begins to defy her mother's wishes. In the excerpt we are analyzing here, for instance, she decides to show how bored and uninterested she is with the intention of making her mother give up on her. June is fighting - as much as she can as a child - for own independence. She believes she can change her mother's feelings and behavior if she performs badly at the tasks she is given.
