Question 6 of 19
Read the following passage:
My friend Sadia is really busy. She is a state-ranked cross-
country champion, and in her spare time she takes classes
at the community college. I think she composes
symphonies on the weekends and probably dabbles in
particle physics too - you know, just for laughs.
What most likely true about the author?
A. The author thinks her friend is not very smart
B. The author thinks her friend is too ambitious
C. The author is impressed by her friend
D. The author believes her friend is good at both music and science,

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C. The author is impressed by her friend.

Explanation:

According to the given passage, the author details how busy her friend Sadia is. Not only is she active in sports, but she also ills her spare time "tak[ing] classes at the community college."

While clearly impressed by the friend, the author couldn't help but add some facts of her own, just to emphasize the busy schedule of Sadia. She added that she thinks "she composes symphonies on the weekends and probably dabbles in particle physics too", though most probably "for laughs". This phrase shows that this opinion is nothing but her own.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Answer:

The answer is a phrase!!

Explanation:

A phrase is any collection of words that behaves like a part of speech, like a noun phrase (“my brother Stu”), an adjectival phrase (“in a different shade of blue”), or an adverbial phrase (“with elegance and tact”). A clause is any noun phrase plus a verb; they can be sentences, but they don't always have to be.

Suppose you were using a web outline to write about new technologies that help doctors prevent or cure diseases. What should you write in the center circle?
disease prevention
new medical technologies
finding a cure
doctors as technicians

Answers

Answer:

finding a cure

Explanation:

Suppose I was using a web outline to write about new technologies that help doctors prevent or cure diseases. What I should write in the center circle is "finding a cure".

This is because the central theme of the Web outline is finding a cure and that's what should be there instead of focusing on the new technologies.

In order to keep the audiences attention, speakers were advised to avoid ______ discussion, and to speak only about subjects ______ to their speech.
irrelevant...germane
brus

Answers

Answer:

Irrelevant, germane

Explanation:

The options you were given are the following:

Irrelevant, germane Brusque, mandatory Digressive, tangential Disinterested, impartial Melancholy, jovial

When someone is holding a speech, their primary goal is to keep their audience engaged. This is why it's important for them to remain focused only on what they are discussing. When too many topics are involved, it becomes difficult for the audience to follow.

When you're unsure about what a word means, you can look it up in a dictionary - an alphabetically arranged listing of words that contains various information about them, such as their definitions, examples, origin, and pronunciation. This is how you can find the correct answer to questions such as this one.

Words that fit the sentence you were given are irrelevant and germane.

When something is irrelevant, it's not related to the discussion or topic.When something is germane, it is related to the discussion or topic.

This is the outline you will follow.

When an ambulance passes you, the pitch seems to change as it speeds by. This is called the Doppler Effect. Please use complete sentences in your answer.

1-Describe what happens to the sound waves as the ambulance approaches you. How would you hear the sound waves? (2 pts.)

2-Describe what happens to the sound waves as the ambulance moves away from you. How would you hear the sound waves now? (2 pts.)

Answers

Answer & Explanation:

As the ambulance approaches you, the distance between the source of the waves and the observer decreases. As a result, the siren sounds more shrill as the pitch of the wailing siren sounds "higher" than its original value, as sound waves reach you more frequently due to the shorter distance.

The opposite occurs when the ambulance moves away from you. The distance between the ambulance (source of sound waves) and the observer increases. As a result, the siren sounds less shrill and sounds "lower" than its original value since the wave reach you less frequently given the greater distance.

A large number of voters still_______ along straight party lines.
O votes
O vote

Answers

Answer:

vote

Explanation:

The tense of the sentence is present simple, as the action is happening on the regular basis. This means the verb stays the same in all forms, except in the third person singular. When the subject is the third singular person, we add ‘s’ or ‘es’ to the root of the verb. Here, it presents the option “votes”

However, in the sentence, the subject “voters” is in the plural third person. This means we don’t add anything to the verb and that it stays only in its root form – “vote”.

Answer: (B) www.kneadtoknowbakery.com

Explanation:

This is the best domain name from Addie´s ideas because it provides the information required for most customers to find the website. Stating the business name and the type of business it is (a bakery) in the domain is the best way for customers to find the website.  The other options don´t have key information such as the name or the kind of business, and they add numbers or dashes that may make it difficult to find.
