A personal documentary shared online is the most effective format for a high school student who wants to persuade peers to elect him class president. The correct option is D.
What is a personal documentary?A personal documentary is a screenplay or video that informs a personal history about oneself, relatives, or close friends.
It is similar to a memoir in that it includes purposeful photos, letters, and collectibles, but it goes one step further by including the enthusiasm of sound and movement.
Bill Nichols, an American film critic and theorist, posited six distinct documentary modes: poetic, expository, reflexive, observational, performative, and collaborative, each with its own distinguishing traits.
Documentary filmmakers make short fiction films that tell true stories in cinematic form. Any type of documentary, like a mainstream movie, will necessitate its own documentary film script.
An individual documentary published on the internet is the most effective format for a high school student seeking class president.
Thus, the correct option is D.

Analyze the quote from Section 3-Burning Bright, then make three connections (text - to this text, text to world, text to self)
"Montag tried to see the men’s faces, the old faces he remembered from the firelight, lined and tired. He was looking for a brightness, a resolve, a triumph over tomorrow that hardly seemed to be there. Perhaps he had expected their faces to burn and glitter with the knowledge they carried, to glow as lanterns glow, with the light in them. But all the light had come from the campfire, and these men had seemed no different than any others who had run a long race, searched a long search, seen good things destroyed, and now, very late, were gathered to wait for the end of the party and the blowing out of the lamps".
Answer:
Text to text: The text shows several times how the faces of men looked downcast, like people who lost their strength and hope. Text to world: The text portrays a link about the idea of tiredness that affects human beings in the most varied spheres of society. This fatigue may not be physical, but mental and psychological. Text to self: The text reminds me of situations where I did not reach a certain goal that I had and I felt that it was no longer worth insisting on, because I had been defeated. Although I went back on some goals, others I let die.Explanation:
When you read a text it is possible to make three types of connections that are called Text-to-self, Text-to-text and text-to-world.
The connection called Text-to-self refers to the connections between the ideas shown in the text and the reader's experiences in his personal life. The connection called Text-to-text refers to the exposure of recurring ideas in the text, which are repeated by reinforcing the main theme being exposed. Finally, the text-to-world connection refers to the connection between the ideas in the text and other areas of knowledge.

1. I know the answer, can't tell you. 2. Should we go by train, 3. I am allergic to cats, 4. She did not study, 5. I will be late for the party, take the bus? I have two of them. she failed the test. will be having dinner with my parents first. 6. Can you stay here 7. She does not like apples, wait for him? does she like oranges. 8.

We bathed the dog, he missed the turn. we could not get him clean. 12. He was supposed to study, he played games instead.
Some of the sentences are mixed up. I've found this question online. It is the following:
Complete the sentence with the correct conjunction:
1. I Know the answer, --------------- I can't tell you.
2. Should we go by train, --------------- take the bus?.
3. l am allergic to cats, ----------------- I have two of them.
4. She did not study, ---------------- she failed the test.
5. I will be late for the party, ------------ I Will be having dinner with my parents first.
6. Can you stay here, ----------- wait for him?.
7. She does not like apples, ------------ does she like oranges.?
8. He has a small house, -------------- it feels very spacious.
9. You can pay with cash, ------------ you can use your credit card.
10 He was driving too fast, ------------- he missed the turn.
11. We bathed the dog, ------------- we could not get him clean.
12. He was supposed to study, ------------ he played games instead.
Answer:
1. I know the answer, but I can't tell you.
2. Should we go by train, or take the bus?.
3. l am allergic to cats, but I have two of them.
4. She did not study, so she failed the test.
5. I will be late for the party, because I will be having dinner with my parents first.
6. Can you stay here, and wait for him?.
7. She does not like apples, but does she like oranges?
8. He has a small house, but it feels very spacious.
9. You can pay with cash, or you can use your credit card.
10 He was driving too fast, so he missed the turn.
11. We bathed the dog, but we could not get him clean.
12. He was supposed to study, but he played games instead.
Explanation:
Since this question does not provide us with the options, I have used the most common conjunctions in such cases.
"But" is used when the ideas expressed in the clauses are contrasting or opposing each other. That is what happens in sentences 1, 3, 7, 8, 11 and 12. The second clause presents an idea that is contrary to the first clause. Take a look at sentence 11, for example. When we bathe a dog, we expect to get it clean. However, they didn't. That is why we use "but".
"Or" is used when we present two alternatives or options to our interlocutor. That is what happens in sentences 2 and 9. In sentence 9, for instance, the options are cash and credit card. The listener can choose one or the other.
"So" and "because" can be used to establish a cause-and-consequence relationship between the sentences. "So" is used in the clause that presents the consequence, while "because" is used in the clause that presents the cause. Here, we used "so" in sentences 4 and 10, and we used "because" in sentence 5.
Finally, "and" is used to add an idea to the one that was already presented. It is an addition. We used it in sentence 6 because we want to know if the person can wait for him besides staying.
