Question 2
5 pts
From "Hidden Intellectualism" by Gerald Graff (Ch. 21):
If I am right, then schools and colleges are missing an opportunity when they do not
encourage students to take their nonacademic interests as objects of academic study.
It is self-defeating to decline to introduce any text or subject that figures to engage
students who will otherwise tune out academic work entirely. If a student cannot get
interested in Mill's On Liberty, but will read Sports Illustrated or Vogue or the hip-hop
magazine Source with absorption, this is a strong argument for assigning the
magazines over the classic (554).

In Wiesel's White House speech, his tone shifts from a somber and reflective tone to a more assertive and passionate tone. His initial tone is sorrowful and reflective as he speaks about the victims of the Holocaust and the atrocities committed by the Nazi regime.

However, as he progresses through his speech, his tone becomes more assertive and passionate as he calls for action and condemns any acts of genocide.

The most effective change in tone is when Wiesel becomes more assertive and passionate as he addresses the world leaders in attendance. His audience is made up of powerful individuals who have the ability to make change happen, and his assertiveness and passion make it clear that he expects action from them.

Overall, Wiesel's shift in tone is effective in conveying his message and making an impact on his audience. By beginning with a reflective and sorrowful tone and ending with a strong call to action, Wiesel is able to reach his audience on an emotional level while also demanding accountability and change.

We can identify the sentences as fragments, run-ons, rambling, or having a misplaced modifier, among other issues, depending on the punctuation, as below.

First, it is important to understand that some sentences could be identified as having more than just one problem. For example, rambling sentences are usually run-on sentences as well. The most important clue we have to find issues is the misuse of punctuation in the sentences.

In a run-on sentence, we normally do not have a comma where it should be. In a comma splice, we only have a comma where we should also have a conjunction. A fragment is simply an incomplete sentence, ended by a period where we needed more information.

A wordy sentence uses too many words to explain the same thing. A rambling sentence goes on and on about a certain topic. Finally, a misplaced modifier appears at the wrong place in the sentence.

Please, feel free to change the answers given above if you believe the issue in each sentence to be another. As we said, some of them are quite common to appear together.

Answer:

The plot is the underlying principle of tragedy'. By plot Aristotle means the arrangement of incidents. Incidents mean action, and tragedy is an imitation of actions, both internal and external.

Explanation:

Answer:

A plot is an important element of a short story because with out the plot, there would be no sotry itself, think of it as writing a script, the plot is like the guide to where the story is going

Example: 'snow white goes to a house of seven dawrfs, she currently lives in the house when suddenly she hears a knock, she opens the door to see a hag with an apple, she eats the apple ad gets poisoned, the dawrfs see this and are mourning her death, then a prince comes and saves her life"

That is the plot of snow white, the topic, the theme, I'm not good at explaining hope you understand though.

The lesson of the tale a narrative's ending should include the event's last action, as well as any comment on or analysis of the meaning of the event to the author.

Falling Action: The story's intensity and conflict begins to level off during the falling action. The resolution should flow naturally into the declining action after the peak. It enables the reader to comprehend the climactic effects and prepares the reader for the ending.

Resolution: The story's culmination occurs at the resolution. It should successfully resolve the tension, offer a satisfying conclusion, and encourage reflection on the story's significance.

You can further a theme by highlighting its importance or connection to the characters' travels in the narrative's conclusion.

These procedures can be used to properly modify and edit a story.

Make the story more clear by making sure it makes sense and is free of gaps or contradictions.

Character development: Evaluate how well your characters are coming along. Make sure they exhibit consistent behavior, unique voices, and clear motives.

Answer:

1. I told you not to do that a million times!

2. My mom is so upset at me that she'll never forgive me!

Explanation:

Hyperbole is an exaggeration that is used to emphasize a point or to create humor. In the first sentence, the hyperbole "a million times" is added to emphasize the speaker's frustration and to make the point that they had warned the listener repeatedly. In the second sentence, the hyperbole "never forgive me" is added to create an extreme exaggeration, emphasizing the speaker's mother's level of upset.

Answer:

From the author's descriptions of the attic door, I get the sense that the writer is extremely anxious about what may be behind the door; thus, I would say that sentences B. or D. would best convey that.

Explanation:

The answer you will give, as someone who is more informed on the question than I, wholly depends on the feeling you'd want to evoke.

Sentence A.

This kindles irrepressible curiosity in the reader as to what's in the boxes, not so much anxiety, in my opinion.

Sentence B.

This shows that the room is very old, musty, and has a rather unsettling atmosphere, unperturbed for a very long time. It gives the reader a sense of suspense with the cloud of dust and coughing and gasping for fresh air.

Sentence C.

I feel like this sentence makes the writer feel a little more self-important and may suggest that they are vain, although it is a completely valid point, in my opinion. This supports the eerie ideas surrounding the attic, and what all other people, the author included (before having opened the door), thought was within the room, while also conveying a sense of accomplishment and pride at what they have done.

Sentence D.

This sentence here, I feel, evokes less of a sentiment of anxiety, but more one of curiosity. There are all these boxes around, taped shut, none having been disturbed in the longest time. This makes the reader wonder what can be in those boxes that have been closed and untouched for so long.

Personally, I would choose sentence B. to insert before the sixth sentence. This would make it "Finally, holding my breath, I grabbed the key from my pocket and unlocked the door. As I stepped into the room, a cold breeze brought me chills and a cloud of dust burst into the air as I coughed and gasped for fresh air; I was convinced no one had been in this room for ages, and I was the first explorer. (6) To my surprise, it was a room full of treasure!" (you could mention that, after some looking around, it was concluded that it was a room of treasure, perhaps for some more context).

Romeo was begging for Juliet in Act 3, Scene 3 of William Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet."

This scene is commonly referred to as the "Balcony Scene" where Romeo stands beneath Juliet's balcony as she speaks to herself about her love for him. Romeo overhears Juliet's monologue and eventually reveals himself to her, and they confess their love for each other.

Juliet, fearing that Romeo's life may be in danger due to the feud between their families, proposes a plan for them to be together and get married secretly. Romeo, overwhelmed with joy and love for Juliet, kneels before her and begs for her hand in marriage.

This scene is crucial in the play as it sets the stage for the tragic events that follow, including the deaths of both Romeo and Juliet. Romeo's begging for Juliet is an expression of his intense love and desire to be with her, despite the challenges and obstacles that lie ahead.

Yes, the underlined portion is a subordinate clause.

A subordinate clause is one that is embedded within a longer sentence. For example, in the English sentence "I know that Bette is a dolphin," the clause "that Bette is a dolphin" appears as a complement to the verb "know," rather than as a separate sentence.

A subordinate clause is a clause that cannot stand alone as a complete sentence. It merely supplements the main clause of a sentence, thus adding to the overall unit of meaning. A subordinate clause is also known as a dependent clause because its meaning is dependent on a main clause.
