What is Realism ?

Realism is a literary and artistic movement that emerged in the mid-19th century in response to Romanticism.

Realist writers and artists sought to portray ordinary, everyday life and human experience as it really was, without the romanticism and idealism of earlier movements.

Realist works often focused on the struggles of common people, portraying them with accuracy and objectivity, and often addressing social and political issues of the time.

Realism is characterized by its attention to detail, its use of plain language, and its emphasis on observation and experience over imagination and idealization.

Read the excerpt from "Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry." In other cases, the censoring has been direct and brutal. On February 28, 1981 the morning newspaper carried a story about the burning of my novel, Bless Me, Ultima. The book was banned from high school classes in Bloomfield, New Mexico, and a school board member was quoted as saying: "We took the books out and personally saw that they were burned." Which type of rhetoric used most shows how the powerful use censorship to silence the powerless

Answers

Hello. You forgot to show the answer options. The options are:

A. an appeal to emotion

B. an appeal to ethics

C. an appeal to logic

D. an appeal to the author’s character

Answer:

C. an appeal to logic

Explanation:

The text presented above shows an appeal to logic as the rhetoric used to demonstrate how censorship can silence the powerless. This is because the narrator states that she describes how a high school class burned books that they believed were inappropriate. These "improper" books portrayed subjects that had a strong social impact and were considered dangerous because of the ideas they emitted. However, they were just books, they could not fight or defend themselves, they were powerless and therefore, it was logical that they were annulled through censorship.

The type of rhetoric used most that shows how the powerful use censorship to silence the powerless is: factual evidence that appeals to the reader's sense of logic.

What is a Rhetoric?

Rhetoric is a literary technique that is used to persuade an audience on a subject. In the text above, we see that factual evidence was used to appeal to the audience and support the points being made.

The citation of the date;  February 28, 1981 is one such usage of facts.

Which additional evidence from the text best supports the inference that Beowulf is stronger and braver than the average warrior?

A. “I hereby renounce / sword and the shelter of the broad shield, / the heavy war-broad: hand-to-hand / is how it will be, a life-and-death / fight with the fiend.”

B. “And the minstrel sang, / filling Heorot with his head-clearing voice, / gladdening that great rally of Geats and Danes.”

C. “People from Geatland have put ashore. / They have sailed far over the wide sea. / They call the chief in charge of their band / by the name of Beowulf.”

D. “A party remained / under orders to keep watch on the arms; / the rest proceeded, led by their prince / under Heorot’s roof.”

Answer:

The evidence that supports the inference that Beowulf is stronger and braver than the average warrior is:

A. “I hereby renounce / sword and the shelter of the broad shield, / the heavy war-broad: hand-to-hand / is how it will be, a life-and-death / fight with the fiend.”

Explanation:

Beowulf is an epic hero, which means he has qualities that make him special. Epic heroes are commonly stronger and braver than a normal person would be. They do not fear monsters or warriors, often leaving the comfort of their homes to go fight a bloody battle. Beowulf is no exception. Among the options provided, letter A is the one that best shows his incredible courage and strength. Beowulf is willing to fight with his bare hands. No shield, no sword.

change the active voice to passive a. somebody will repair the machine b.somebody is watching us c.somebody has to buy the food d.somebody stole my bag e.she always speaks English​

Answers

Answer:

A,The machine will be repaired (by someone) B,We are being watched (by somebody) C,? There is something wrong with the sentence D,My bag was stolen (by some body) E,English is spoken (by her)

Active and passive voice are two grammatical constructions used to describe the relationship between the subject of a sentence and its action.

What is Actiive and passive voice ?

In active voice, the subject of the sentence performs the action, while in passive voice, the subject receives the action.

Active voice is often used to express a more direct and concise message, highlighting the subject's agency and responsibility for the action. For example, "John fixed the car" is a sentence in active voice, where the subject "John" is the one performing the action of fixing the car.

On the other hand, passive voice is used to shift the focus from the subject to the object, emphasizing the action itself rather than who performed it. For instance, "The car was fixed by John" is a sentence in passive voice, where the subject "car" receives the action of being fixed, and "John" becomes the object of the preposition "by".

Passive voice can be useful when the subject of the sentence is unknown or unimportant, or when the speaker wants to avoid placing blame or responsibility on a particular person. However, overusing passive voice can make writing sound impersonal or vague. Therefore, it is important to use both active and passive voice appropriately to achieve clear and effective communication.

Hence

a. The machine will be repaired by somebody.

b. We are being watched by somebody.

c. The food has to be bought by somebody.

d. My bag was stolen by somebody.

e. English is always spoken by her.

Read this excerpt from Levitt and Dubner’s Freakonomics.

The incentive scheme that rules sumo is intricate and extraordinarily powerful. Each wrestler maintains a ranking that affects every slice of life; how much money he makes, how large an entourage he carries, how much he gets to eat, sleep, and otherwise take advantage of his success. The sixty-six highest-ranked wrestlers in Japan, comprising the makuuchi and juryo divisions, make up the sumo elite. A wrestler near the top of this elite pyramid may earn millions and is treated like royalty. Any wrestler in the top forty earns at least $170,000 a year. The seventieth-ranked wrestler in Japan, meanwhile, earns only $15,000 a year. Life isn’t very sweet outside the elite. Low-ranked wrestlers must tend to their superiors, preparing their meals and cleaning their quarters and even soaping up their hardest-to-reach body parts. So ranking is everything.

A wrestler’s ranking is based on his performance in the elite tournaments that are held six times a year. Each wrestler has fifteen bouts per tournament, one per day over fifteen consecutive days. If he finishes the tournament with a winning record (eight victories or better), his ranking will rise. If he has a losing record, his ranking falls. If it falls far enough, he is booted from the elite rank entirely. The eighth victory in any tournament is therefore critical, the difference between promotion and demotion; it is roughly four times as valuable in the rankings as the typical victory.

Based on the excerpt, which of the following statements best summarizes the incentive system that ranks sumo wrestlers?
The incentive system penalizes elite sumo wrestlers.
The incentive system rewards elite sumo wrestlers.
The incentive system treats all sumo wrestlers equally.
The incentive system treats all sumo wrestlers like royalty.

Answers

Answer:

1. dead-end

2. glamorous

3. challenging

4. repetitive

5. worthwhile

6. stressful

7. varied

8. highly-skilled

Explanation:

1. A job is a dead end when there is no possibility of promotion. Unless the applicant really wants to stay at the same level for the rest of his life, he will need to find another job to grow professionally.

2. A job is glamorous when it makes us think that the professional is living a good life. Being around rich and famous people is often seen a glamorous.

3. If you are constantly tested, then you have a challenging job. You will probably receive rewards, but you will need to prove yourself.

4. A repetitive job requires you to do the same thing over and over again.

5. If you're not only working but also helping people, your job is certainly worthwhile. Your time is being employed in a beautiful and useful manner.

6. Firefighters have an extremely stressful job. They can often get exhausted after working long hours in bad conditions.

7. A job is varied when it is not repetitive. That is, it does not require you to do only the one same thing, but rather you have to be flexible and adaptable to do many different things.

8. Finally, jobs that demand certain degrees and training are high-skilled jobs. If you do not possess the skills necessary to perform, you are not even considered for hiring.

The adjectives have been matched to their job descriptions as follows:

1 Burger Sales Assistant: regular hours, no qualifications required, no promotion prospects. Dead-end 2 Celebrity Personal Assistant: required to live in Hollywood and travel the world with major film star. Glamorous 3 Oil Company Managing Director: top job for ambitious professional who wants to manage major international company and really test themselves.

Repetitive 5 Aid Worker: volunteers required to help orphaned children in Bangladesh – make a difference to people’s lives! Worthwhile 6 Firefighter: join our team who attend emergencies and help carry out rescues. You need to be fit and healthy to deal with some of the dangerous aspects of this occupation. Stressful 7 Zookeeper: required to feed animals, advise visitors, work in ticket office, etc. – a hundred different jobs in one!
