In the following excerpt, a writer tries to persuade this supervisor to respond to a government request for proposals (RFP) to b

uild an unmanned surveillance plane for the military. Which aspects of the paragraph undercut the effectiveness of the passage?
I think we are making a serious mistake by not responding. If we don't respond to this proposal, we will lose our competitive edge. At a conference last month, for example, I spoke to a couple of people who said the market for unmanned surveillance aircraft will grow exponentially during the next 10 years. Can we talk about this more at next week's planning meeting?

Explanation:

The writer poses only two alternatives when in fact there might be more alternatives.

These two are :

1. "If we don't respond to this proposal, we will lose our competitive edge".

2. "I spoke to a couple of people who said the market for unmanned surveillance aircraft will grow exponentially during the next 10 years."

It also tries to draw conclusions based on inadequate samples.

It states that the claim is valid since the person making the claim is a government authority.

Mrrafil [7]
In general, human memories are processed in three steps.
Encoding - Which includes the input of the information
Storage - this process refers to the saving of the information in our memory space
Retrieval - The process of searching a certain memory in our memory space and taking it out.

The most efficient method for improving memory would be by utilizing your right brain plus all of other senses during the Encoding + Storage process.
Make the information unique and interesting.

For example, if you want to memorize a certain number, try transforming the number into characters/visual image (0 - wheel, 1 - snake, 2-Duck, etc. .)

Answer:No,we are not dependent on the natural world as the ancient group.

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

c. that each nonverbal code rarely operates alone.

Explanation:

Words do not tell everything. The important part of the communication is nonverbal communication which includes gestures, mimics, eye contact, facial expressions and posture. People can control what they are going to say, but it is rare that person can control their nonverbal reaction to something. When we want to value verbal communication in making an impression, then we pay attention to tone of voice also. In the given situation, Angela's mother showed her disagreement with Angela's plan to move out without any words using eye contact and body language. So she used at least two nonverbal codes which makes C the most accurate answer.
