Read this excerpt from Rudolfo Anaya’s essay “Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry.”

Tortillas and poetry. They go hand in hand. Books nourish the spirit, bread nourishes our bodies. Our distinct cultures nourish each one of us, and as we know more and more about the art and literature of the different cultures, we become freer and freer. . . .

I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like to sample different ethnic foods, the breads of many many groups; just as many of us enjoy sampling books from different areas of the world. I travel to foreign countries, and I know more about myself as I learn more about my fellow human beings. Censorship imposes itself in my path of knowledge, and that activity can be justified by no one.

Which of these changes would make this excerpt more argumentative?

A.) using words that affect the audience’s sense of trust
B.) using less repetition of certain words and phrases
C.) including words that address logic and reason
D.) including words that are charged with emotion

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C.) including words that address logic and reason

Explanation:

This excerpt only deals with subjective notions, and presents the material from the speaker's personal perspective. There is too much of "I know", "I traveled". An argumentative passage requires arguments that really are arguments, that is they really must support the initial claim.

Read the excerpt from "Children of the Drug Wars."

If many children don’t meet strict asylum criteria but face significant dangers if they return, the United States should consider allowing them to stay using humanitarian parole procedures we have employed in the past, for Cambodians and Haitians. It may be possible to transfer children and resettle them in other safe countries willing to share the burden.

What is the author’s purpose in this excerpt?

to express an opinion about US asylum policies
to prompt feelings of sympathy in the reader
to suggest a suspenseful atmosphere about the asylum process
to provide facts and details about Cambodian and Haitian children

Answers

Answer: to express an opinion about US asylum policies.

Explanation:

The author of the writing that this excerpt is based on is sharing their opinion on what they feel the U.S. should do when it comes to little children asking for asylum.

The author believes that they should be saved especially if they face danger if they are sent back home. The speaker then gives their suggestion in relation to this which shows that the purpose of the text was to express an opinion.

Answers

Answer: The argument is ineffective because their agrument is based soley off opinions rather than factual evidence. The use of opinions in an agrumentive essay is usually quite taboo because it makes you seem much less of an intellectual writer. Their claim is 'It is super important to colonize the moon because we will run out of roon on Earth' which is based on what factual evidence? Their support is their neighbor saying we are ruining the Earth, and while there is factual evidence of climate change it is not stated or brought up. Their supporting sentence falls flat. Their conclusion is that the moon is great, which is in fact another opinion. Basically, this argument has no evidential pull like a good strong agrumentive piece can have due to the over use of personal diction and opinions.

Can anyone write me a free verse poem or an example

Answers

Answer:

Free verse poems will have no set meter, which is the rhythm of the words, no rhyme scheme, or any particular structure. Some poets would find this liberating, being able to whimsically change your mind, while others feel like they could not do a good job in that manner. Robert Frost commented that writing free verse was like "playing tennis without a net."

Explanation:

The First Time We Kissed" by Kelly Roper

Nervously I stood there under the porch light

As you smiled at me and moved in closer.

You took me in your arms, and my heart began to thud so loudly

I was sure you could hear it but were pretending you didn't.

You moistened your lips, looked deeply into my eyes,

And then gently pressed your lips to mine.

A moment's pause, and you touched my lips with yours again,

A whisper of a kiss that promised more to come.

We kissed again, and during that kiss I felt like I had finally come home.

Looking back, I know I was right as we kiss goodnight and I turn out the light.

Answers

Hello. You did not present the excerpt to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I will try to help you as much as possible.

It is only possible to determine the central theme of an excerpt, after reading it. In that case, the first step in answering that question is to read the entire excerpt. After that, you will be able to identify the central theme, since that theme refers to the message that the author wants to pass on to the reader with the reading. In that case, you can find the theme of the excerpt by asking the following questions: "What does this excerpt talk about?", "What message can I understand from this excerpt?", "Is there a lesson being taught in this excerpt? is this lesson?".

Where would you most likely encounter a flashback

-in a lighting storm
-in a biographical film
-in a dance performance
-in a photography studio

Answers

Answer:

in a biographical film

Explanation:

A flashback is a transition in a story to an earlier time, that interrupts the normal chronological order of events. A flashback in a movie might show what happened when a character was younger.

Flashbacks are often used for comedic effect, to prove or contradict something in the present. For example, if a character in a sitcom claims he does the dishes every single night, flashbacks could show him ignoring a giant pile of dirty dishes on various occasions. Flashback can also mean a sudden, vivid remembrance of past events, like having a flashback to your kindergarten days if you go visit that classroom today.

In a soliloquy, a character speaks

Directly to a director

Directly to himself

Directly to another character

both a and c

all of the above

Answers

Answer:

Directly to himself

Explanation:

A literary device can be defined as any technique used by speakers and authors (writers) to significantly emphasize on their writeups or compositions and express their ideas, opinions or thoughts to the audience.

The main purpose of a literary device is to convey more information and enable the readers or listeners have a deeper understanding of the piece. Some of the literary device used in English literature are; exposition, resolution, plot, paradox, setting, tragedy, comedy, epiphany, theme, falling action, rising action, simile, metaphor, parody, utopia, anecdote, pseudonym, essay, analogy, hyperbole, oxymoron, personification, pun, sarcasm, contrast, connotations, genre, fiction, epic, inference, foreshadowing, soliloquy, etc.

A soliloquy can be defined as a literary device used mostly in a drama and it typically involves the character speaks directly to him or herself and relates his or her emotions, feelings and innermost thoughts as if thinking aloud.

This ultimately implies that, a character speaks directly to him or herself in a soliloquy.

Generally, no other character is present when a character is soliloquizing on the stage or in a drama.
