Please read and annotate each paragraph:
"The Role of the Media in a Democracy" by George A. Krimsky

"A self-governing society, by definition, needs to make its own decisions. It cannot do that without hard information, leavened with an open exchange of views. Abraham Lincoln articulated this concept most succinctly when he said: "Let the people know the facts, and the country will be safe."

"Some might regard Lincoln's as a somewhat naive viewpoint, given the complexities and technologies of the 20th century; but the need for public news has been a cornerstone of America's system almost from the start."

"Thomas Jefferson felt so strongly about the principle of free expression he said something that non-democrats must regard as an absurdity: "If it were left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter." The implication of those words is that self-governance is more essential than governance itself. Not so absurd, perhaps, if you had just fought a war against an oppressive government."

Listening carefully to a song’s lyrics so you can better understand its meaning is an example of _____.


A. preparation


B. active listening


C. emphasis


D. passive listening

Answers

Answer: B active listening

Explanation:

Answer:

B. active listening

Explanation:

Listening

Listening is more than just hearing something. It requires thoughtful attention and interpretation to better understand meaning.

You know how to hear something, since hearing occurs naturally. But do you know how to pay thoughtful attention to what you hear? This lesson will instruct you about how to be a more effective listener.

There are two ways to listen: active and passive.

Active listening involves hearing something in an interactive way. Listening closely to song lyrics so you can better understand their meaning is an example of active listening.

Passive listening involves hearing something without any engagement or interaction. Hearing a song on the radio without paying attention to the lyrics is an example of passive listening.

Be sure to take notes on key points throughout this lesson. What key points have you learned so far about listening?

Empathetic listening occurs when you imagine yourself in the other person’s position and try to understand what he or she is thinking or feeling. The speaker feels valued and respected since the listener responds with feeling or compassion.

Situations that require empathetic listening include

personal conversations with friends or family; and

one-on-one conversations with a co-worker or teacher.

Preparation

Imagine that a college representative has come to talk to your class. This individual’s presentation will help you make important decisions about the steps you need to take to choose a college. Clearly, it is very important that you listen closely.

Think About It

How might you prepare to listen to this speaker?

There are a number of things you can do to prepare for this kind of speaker.

Find out about the subject that will be discussed. In this case, it is

college admissions requirements;

college application process;

courses offered; and

financial aid options.

Block out all distractions during the presentation. For example, you should

turn off your cell phone;

not sit next to a friend who may distract you; and

select a seat where you can see and hear the speaker clearly.

Write down questions you have or ideas you want to learn more about.

How do I decide on choosing a college?

What degree programs are offered?

Can I afford to go to college?

Listening carefully to a song's lyrics so you can better understand its meaning is?

Read the excerpt from "Mother Tongue."

Yet some of my friends tell me they understand 50 percent of what my mother says. Some say they understand 80 to 90 percent. Some say they understand none of it, as if she were speaking pure Chinese. But to me, my mother’s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It’s my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is vivid, direct, full of observation and imagery. That was the language that helped shape the way I saw things, expressed things, made sense of the world.

Which best summarizes the central idea of the excerpt?
Nonstandard forms of English are valid, complete languages.

Lucy's research question is "What makes it possible for octopuses to open childproof medicine bottles?" She is having trouble finding sources that answer this exact question. How should she revise her research question? She should narrow her research question to focus her topic. She should make her research question more complex. She should broaden her research question. She should make her research question more concise.

Answers

Answer:

the answer is actually C  "She should broaden her research question"

Explanation:

FROM EDMENTUM:

This question is improperly focused. It asks about a single, very specific octopus behavior. It is too narrow to merit a whole research project. Lucy can strengthen her research question by broadening it. Lucy certainly does not need to narrow her research question. It also already requires a relatively complex answer that would be more than one word. In addition, the question is already relatively concise, since it is stated using as few words as possible.

Answer:

The correct answer is C. "She should broaden her research question."

Explanation:

The explanation from Edmendum explains, "This question is improperly focused. It asks about a single, very specific octopus behavior. It is too narrow to merit a whole research project. Lucy can strengthen her research question by broadening it. Lucy certainly does not need to narrow her research question. It also already requires a relatively complex answer that would be more than one word. In addition, the question is already relatively concise, since it is stated using as few words as possible."

Read "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" and answer the question.

[1] I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
[5] Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
[10] Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
[15] A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
[20] In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

The words Wordsworth uses in his poem reveal that nature

does little to make him think about its worth
