was fired from the company
bias
Next
Answer:
1. A general report on raising children that is not supported by data → Faulty reasoning
Faulty reasoning in research refers to a scenario where the conclusion reached by a research is not supported by data which is the case in this scenario so it falls under Faulty reasoning.
2. An article talking only about the benefits of a vegan diet and not potential drawbacks → Omission.
In research, omission happens when important information is left out. It is usually done deliberately especially in situations where a certain narrative is being pushed so as to support that narrative.
3. A review about a company by an employee that was fired from the company → Bias
Bias has many forms but in this case means that the person interviewed might give a wrong impression of the company in order to spite them or get some sort of revenge for the company having fired them.

Read the passage from "One of These Days" by Gabriel Garcia
Marquez:
"Monday dawned warm and rainless. Aurelio Escovar, a dentist without
a degree, and a very early riser, opened his office at six. He took some
false teeth, still mounted in their plaster mold, out of the glass case and
put on the table a fistful of instruments which he arranged in size order,
as if they were on display. He wore a collarless striped shirt, closed at
the neck with a golden stud, and pants held up by suspenders. He was
erect and skinny, with a look that rarely corresponded to the situation,
the way deaf people have of looking."
All of the following excerpts are used as appositive phrases except...
Select one:
- "still mounted in their plastic mold"
- "With a look that rarely corresponded to the situation"
- "He wore a collarless striped shirt
- a dentist without a degree
Answer:
"With a look that rarely corresponded to the situation"
Explanation:
According to the passage from "One of These Days" by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the movements and actions of a dentist Aurelio Escovar is narrated and how he carefully places his tools and instruments on the table.
Therefore, all of the following excerpts are used as appositive phrases except the statement, "With a look that rarely corresponded to the situation".
This is because, an appositive phrase is a set of words that are placed side by side with its modifier and the above statement is not placed together with a modifier.

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.

Answer:
There was a king in China who used to spend hours in his uniform, parading before a mirror in his room. He would remain secluded in his palace, admiring himself while his subjects starved to death, and his kingdom went to ruin. One night, a courtier gathered a group of palace attendants and, while the king slept, cut a window on the wall where the king's mirror had hung. The next morning, when the king dressed himself in his sparkly medals, he walked to where the mirror had been and saw to his amazement the unending procession of his people passing on the street. He saw starving children reaching into garbage cans for crusts. He saw sick and maimed men and women. He tore off his medals,called for simple clothes, and went out to mingle (mingle ) with the people. His whole outlook on life changed when he stopped looking into mirror at only himself.
Explanation:
0. to spend → completes the meaning of "used", as in the expression "used to do something."
1. parading → needs -ing to indicate it's completing the meaning of the verb "spend", as in "he used to spend hours parading before a mirror."
2. starved → we need the verb to be in the past form here, since the text is narrated in the past.
3. attendants → this sentence refers to the people who worked at the palace, that is, its attendants.
4. sparkly → we need an adjective to modify the noun "medals".
5. amazement → it is a common expression, "to one's amazement".
6. maimed → we need an adjective to modify the nouns "men and women".
7. tore → the verb is conjugated in the past form.
8. to mingle → we need to add "to" before the verb to indicate the king's intention.
Excerpt from Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children By Ransom Riggs I picked up the flashlight and stepped toward the trees. My grandfather was out there somewhere, I was sure of it. But where? I was no tracker, and neither was Ricky. And yet something seemed to guide me anyway—a quickening in the chest; a whisper in the viscous air—and suddenly I couldn’t wait another second. I tromped into the underbrush like a bloodhound scenting an invisible trail. It’s hard to run in Florida woods, where every square foot not occupied by trees is bristling with thigh-high palmetto spears and nets of entangling skunk vine, but I did my best, calling my grandfather’s name and sweeping my flashlight everywhere. I caught a white glint out of the corner of my eye and made a beeline for it, but upon closer inspection it turned out to be just a bleached and deflated soccer ball I’d lost years before. I was about to give up and go back for Ricky when I spied a narrow corridor of freshly stomped palmettos not far away. I stepped into it and shone my light around; the leaves were splattered with something dark. My throat went dry. Steeling myself, I began to follow the trail. The farther I went, the more my stomach knotted, as though my body knew what lay ahead and was trying to warn me. And then the trail of the flattened brush widened out, and I saw him. Summarize the text. The narrator is - *
A. worried about his grandfather, that something terrible has happened.
B. looking for his grandfather in the woods. Following his intuition and uneasy feelings, he finally finds him.
C. tracking his grandfather through the woods to practice his skills.
D. searching for his grandfather. He picked up a flashlight, went into the woods, and tromped into the underbrush.

On Wiesel's Night
I cannot teach this book. Instead,
I drop copies on their desks,
like bombs on sleeping towns,
and let them read. So do I, again.
The stench rises from the page
and chokes my throat.
The ghosts of burning babies
haunt my eyes.
And that bouncing baton
that pointer of Death,
stabs me in the heart
as it sends his mother
to the
blackening sky
Nothing is
the laws
of
science say,
only changed
The millions transformed into
precious smoke ride the wind
to fill our lungs and hearts
with their cries.
No, I cannot teach this book.
I simply want the words
to burn their comfortable souls
and leave them scarred for life.
