Answer:

the one the question is refering to.

The writing 'rule' (myth) Churchill's reply satirizes is the 'Never end a sentence on a preposition' rule (i.g. as I intetionally did on the immediate sentence before this one). And his reply to it was something like 'This is the type of errant pedantry up with which I will not put.'

The 'rule' is a myth, yes, but of course what Churchill did was an exaggeration to sneeringly point out the ignorance of those who criticized him.

His sentence therefore was incorrect. One possible change to improve it could be: 'This is the type of errant pedantry which I will not put up with.'

Specially the 'up' and 'with' of 'put up with' could never go in the middle of a sentence, as 'put up with' is a phrasal verb, meaning the verb and the preposition must always be together in the correct order.

I was able to find some possible variations of what his sentence could have actually had been, but in none of them the 'up with' goes along with 'put', so either ways we can assume that his sentence was deliberately wrong.

In my opinion, I believe that the sentences that explains that organic produce does not contain pesticides and chemical fertilizers that might be bad for you, is the best option or the sentence that explains it is suitable for the environment, these make more sense and are both better obvious answers than the others.

Answer:

B

Explanation:

It shows that the war resulted in a new illusion of omnipotence."In April 1917 the illusion of isolation was destroyed, America came to the end of innocence, and of the exuberant freedom of bachelor independence. That the responsibilities of world power have not made us happier is no surprise. To help ourselves manage them, we have replaced the illusion of isolation with a new illusion of omnipotence" Barbara Tuchman

Read these excerpts from The Way to Rainy Mountain by N. Scott Momaday
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

The answer is letter B, The first passage uses factual descriptions to achieve an informative tone, but the second passage uses personal experience to achieve a reflective tone.

Explanation:

Every writer has a theme when it comes to writing. In order to let the audience or readers know about its theme, it sets a specific tone which <u>tells much about a writer's attitude</u>. The tone can vary in the different parts of the story or it can just be one.

In the passages above, the first one uses factual description to achieve an informative tone. <u>Factual descriptions</u> <em>are based on information that are proven to be true (facts).</em> The description of the Tai-me of being a small image, less than 2 feet in length, etc. shows the real description about the thing. <u>It then tries to inform or let the readers know what Tai-me is all bout, thus using an "informative tone."</u>

The second passage, on the contrary, uses personal experience to achieve a reflective tone. The writer tells a story about visiting his father and grandmother and seeing the Tai-me. This is a personal experience which tries to achieve a reflective tone by sharing insights to the readers.
