Read the paragraph. I have been a nurse for twenty years. In that time, I have seen a great number of patients suffer because they did not have health insurance. One of the worst cases was a young mother of two who was diagnosed with early stage skin cancer. Because she could not afford treatment, the cancer spread from her skin to other parts of her body. By the time I saw her for the first time, the cancer had reached her brain and she could no longer be helped. This sort of thing should not happen to anyone. A strong universal health care system could prevent instances like this from occurring. What makes this appeal from the paragraph convincing? I have been a nurse for twenty years. It uses proven data as evidence. It appeals to the reader’s emotions. It shows the writer’s credibility. It reveals important statistics.

which sentence uses figurative language to make a point ?

"My fellow-citizens, no people on earth have more cause to be thankful than ours, and this is sald reverently, in no spirit of boastfulness in our own strength, but with gratitude to the Glver of Good who has
blessed us with the conditions which have enabled us to achieve so large a measure of well-being and of happiness. To us as a people It has been granted to lay the foundations of our national life in a new
continent. We are the heirs of the ages, and yet we have had to pay few of the penalties which in old countries are exacted by the dead hand of a bygone civilization. We have not been obliged to fight for
our existence against any alien race; and yet our life has called for the vigor and effort without which the manlier and hardier virtues wither away. Under such conditions It would be our own fault if we
failed; and the success which we have had in the past, the success which we confidently believe the future will bring, should cause in us no feeling of [vanity], but rather a deep and abiding realization of all
which life has offered us; a full acknowledgment of the responsibility which is ours; and a fixed determination to show that under a free government a mighty people can thrive best, alike as regards the
things of the body and the things of the soul.
Much has been given us, and much will rightfully be expected from us. We have duties to others and duties to ourselves; and we can shirk neither. We have become a great nation, forced by the fact of its
greatness into relations with the other nations of the earth, and we must behave as beseems a people with such responsibilities. Toward all other nations, large and small, our attitude must be one of
cordial and sincere friendship. We must show not only in our words, but in our deeds, that we are earnestly desirous of securing their good will by acting toward them in a spirit of just and generous
recognition of all their rights. But justice and generosity in a nation, as in an individual, count most when shown not by the weak but by the strong. While ever careful to refrain from wrongdoing others, we
must be no less insistent that we are not wronged ourselves. We wish peace, but we wish the peace of justice, the peace of righteousness. We wish it because we think it is right and not because we are
afrald. No weak nation that acts manfully and justly should ever have cause to fear us, and no strong power should ever be able to single us out as a subject for Insolent aggression."

Roosevelt states that "Much has been given us, and much will rightfully be expected from us." What is one example from the text of something that is expected from us?

A. To achieve so large a measure of well-being and of happiness
B. To pay few of the penalties which in old countries are exacted by the dead hand
C. To show that under a free government a mighty people can thrive best
D. To single us out as a subject for Insolent aggression​

Read the excerpts from "Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry," and "Speaking Arabic."
My friend had concluded that if he took his language and culture out of his poetry, he stood a better chance of
receiving a fellowship. He took out his native language, the poetic patois of our reality, the rich mixture of Spanish,
English, pachuco and street talk which we know so well. In other words, he took the tortillas out of his poetry, which
is to say he took the soul out of his poetry.
At a neighborhood fair in Texas, somewhere between the German Oom-pah Sausage Stand and the Mexican Gorditas
booth, I overheard a young man say to his friend, "I wish I had a heritage. Sometimes I feel-so lonely for one." And
the tall American trees were dangling their thick branches right down over his head.

Read the excerpt from Spencer’s narrative. I could not have been more stunned. "He” was a "she”! Our new football coach was a female. My mind drifted to that day last week. We had all been waiting in the locker room to meet our new coach, secretly wondering what he would be like. Would he be tough but fair? Would he be demanding but understanding? Would he motivate us before each game with a rousing speech the way Coach Jackson always had? These thoughts were abruptly interrupted when our new coach entered the locker room, stood before us, and commanded our attention. Spencer decided to structure his narrative to start at the end. How did this affect his arrangement of the plot? Spencer had to include the most exciting and engaging parts of the narrative. Spencer had to include a conclusion since the reader already knew what happened. Spencer had to provide detailed background information about his new football coach. Spencer had to go back and recount the events that led to that moment.
