Read this paragraph from History of Woman Suffrage, Volume I.

We have shown that woman is not correctly represented by man at the ballot-box. Could her voice be heard, it would alter the choice of public men and their character. With legislators compelled to respect her opinions, the law itself, constitutions, and politics reflect, to a just extent, her peculiar views and interests. Nor is it for us to decide whether these would be for the better or worse. Let the majority rule.

What is the author’s purpose for including this paragraph?

a. to inform readers about voting restrictions
b. to inform readers about a political movement
c. to persuade readers that women deserve the right to vote
d. to entertain readers with a story about women who become lawmakers

Answers

Answer 1
I believe the answer is c
Answer 2

The correct answer is: Option C. To persuade readers that women deserve the right to vote.


The author begins their statement by introducing a man's point of view in a scenario where women are allowed to vote, and how that would alter their ego and social behaviour. This is done as a means to present a reason for men not to take a policy like that so lightly. The author then, with the final phrase "Let the majority rule", clearly invites the readers to have their voices heard about the matter, expecting these to be raised on favor of women.

When the servants or Lady Elizabeth leaves, have ____ bring my horses. Which pronoun correctly completes the seWhich pronoun correctly completes the sentence?

a. her

b. him or her

c. him

d. them

Answers

d.them because it's not very specific on who so you choose them hope thats correct.

Answer:

d. them

Explanation:

Although the sentence does not specify much, we can infer that the order is given to the "servants", as it is very unlikely that a Lady (a title often used to refer to a woman to whom homage, respect or obedience is due) carry the task of bringing somebody else's horses, especially when there are servants who can do it, instead.

Thus, "them" is the most suitable answer as this object pronoun refers to the third person in the plural (They - the servants).

In these lines, the mirror most likely symbolizes

A. a show of vanity
B. a sense of comfort
C. the recognition of ones talents
D. the reflection of ones inner beauty

Answers

I'd say the answer is D.

Answer:

D. The reflection of one's inner beauty.

Explanation:

A mirror is an object made to depict one's physical appearance in its surface, but this might not be case for this definition. Instead, the mirror most likely keeps its reflecting capabilities, but works with one's inner beauty instead - at least for somebody with dislike for their physical appearance who finds themselves smiling at their self-version beyond the image.

Why is "Through the Tunnel" a coming-of-age story? Because Jerry goes through a rite of passage in "Through the Tunnel," the story is classified as coming-of-age story. In "Through the Tunnel," swimming through the tunnel is important to Jerry because he wants to impress the older boys. In "Through the Tunnel," Jerry does not challenge himself. In "Through the Tunnel," Jerry does not feel as emotionally close to his mother as he does to his father.

Answers

Just based on the options I would say it's a coming of age story because he goes through a rite of passage. I don't think it would be because he does not feel as close to his mother or that Jerry does not challenge himself. It could possibly be because he wants to impress the older boys but i think the first option is more likely as in real life people do go through rites of passages as they come of age. 

Read The Passage

Of men that live among cattle ...
Of builders and steerers of ships and the wielders of
axes and mauls, and the drivers of horses ...

The excerpt from "Song Of Myself " by Walt Whitman is an example of ______.

A.Diction
B.Anaphora
C.A Catalogue
D.Onomatopoeia     The Answer Is Catalogue .

Answers

The answer is anaphora

Answer:

I believe the answer to be C. catalogue.

Explanation:

Diction is basically the writing style of an author, determined by his choice of words. Anaphora consists of the repetition of a part of a sentence with the purpose of emphasizing an idea or its importance. Onomatopoeia refers to words that represent a sound by imitating it. None of those options related to the excerpt we are studying here:

Of men that live among cattle ...

Of builders and steerers of ships and the wielders of

axes and mauls, and the drivers of horses ...

Even though there is some repetition in the excerpt, it does not constitute an anaphora. It consists merely of the preposition "of", not a phrase. What we can note, however, is that the author is making a list of things and people with the purpose of creating a rhetorical effect. That is what we call a catalogue. This rhetorical device is constantly used by Walt Whitman in "Song of Myself" since he tries to list the things that he loves - the whole world - while he celebrates.

5 In the case of a backover incident, the blind spot is the place behind your vehicle that you cannot see in the rear or side view mirrors — or even by craning your neck out the driver’s side window. Generally speaking, the larger the vehicle, the larger the blind spot. 6 Blind spots for shorter drivers tend to be significantly larger as well. In addition, the elevation of the driver’s seat, the shape of a vehicle’s windows and mirrors, and the slope of a driveway can affect the size of the blind spot behind a vehicle. In addition, the smaller stature of children can make them particularly difficult for a driver to see when backing up. Based on the information in the passage, which combination is least likely to result in a backover accident? Explain your answer with text evidence! A)a full-size SUV and a petite, elderly woman B) a compact sedan and a tall, twenty-year-old man C) an Airstream motorhome and a ten-year-old child D) a full-size pick up truck and a three-year-old child

Answers

5) The Almighty has his own purposes. ‘Woe unto the world because of offenses! for it must needs be that offenses come; but woe to that man by whom the offense cometh.’ If we shall suppose that American slavery is one of those offenses which, in the providence of God, must needs come, but which, having continued through his appointed time, he now wills to remove, and that he gives to both North and South this terrible war, as the woe due to those by whom the offense came, shall we discern therein any departure from those divine attributes which the believers in a living God always ascribe to him? Fondly do we hope—fervently do we pray—that this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away. Yet, if God wills that it continue until all the wealth piled by the bondsman’s two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn by the lash shall be paid by another drawn with the sword, as was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said, ‘The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.’

Answers

The second one I would say

The correct answer is B. The James Madison Memorial Building, built in 1981, houses the Folger Shakespeare Library.

Explanation:

In grammar, a nonessential element is a word or set of words that provide information about a previous noun or any other element in the sentence. This is considered as nonessential because it provides extra information but it is necessary to have a complete sentence, because of this, in most cases commas are placed to enclosed the element, which means a comma is placed before and after the nonessential element. In the case, fo the sentence presented the words that only provide extra information are "built in 1981" and therefore the correct option to separate the nonessential element is "The James Madison Memorial Building, built in 1981, houses the Folger Shakespeare Library".
