In sentence 10 (reproduced below), the writer wants to compare a specific difference between making pennies now and making pennies at an earlier time.
In 2001, it cost 0.79 cents to make a penny, but now, with metal costs increasing, the cost has changed in a noteworthy way.
Which of the following versions of the underlined text most effectively accomplishes this goal?
A. (as it is now)
B. the cost has soared to 1.8 cents per penny
C. economists worry that the penny is unsustainable
D. the United States Mint has looked into less expensive metals
E. the penny is made of only 2.5% copper

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B. the cost has soared to 1.8 cents per penny.

Explanation:

In the given sentence, the reproduction of the given sentence means changing the sentence or particular line into a more refined or better version. This will be in tune with maintaining the meaning of the replaced line or words while trying to 'change' it.

While the first part of the sentence provides the previous cost of making pennies, the second part is about the current cost. And in the given sentence, "the cost has changed in a noteworthy way" can be changed into "the cost has soared to 1.8 cents per penny" to make the point much clearer. This change will ensure that the readers know and understand the 'hike' in the cost of penny making, which also completes the comparison.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

Brook states that the distance on the line is 4 units. Caleb states that the whole line does not have a distance because it continues on forever. Vivian states that the line is 6 units long. A number line goes from negative 8 to positive 8. A line with arrows as endpoints is above the line and contains points L, M, N. A closed circle appears at negative 6 and is labeled L. A closed circle appears at negative 2 and is labeled M. A closed circle appears at positive 4 and is labeled N. Which distance did Brook measure? Which distance did Vivian measure?

Answers

Hi. You forgot to show the image of the line this question refers to. This makes it difficult for your question to be answered. However, when searching for your question on the internet, I was able to find another question exactly like yours, which showed an image of the line. This line is in the image attached below. If that was your case, I hope this answer can help you:

Answer:

Brook was measuring the distance between L and M, while Vivian was measuring the distance between M and N.

Explanation:

You will be able to answer this question very simply, as you only need to count the units between every two points on the line. If you count the first unit after point L to the unit that marks point M, you will see that there are 4 units, as Brok noted. If you do the same thing between points M and N, you will see that there are 6 units of distance, as Vivian noted.

Answer: 1.) the distance between L and M  

2.) the distance between M and N

1. Not all bugs slither and crawl. A bug can also be an error in a computer program. When a computer tries to read a program with a bug in it, the bug will affect the computer in one of two ways: the computer may process the error and continue running the program. In this case the bug only has a small effect on the computer; however, if the computer cannot process the error, then the bug will cause the computer to freeze and crash. This will require the user to restart the program or the computer. Bugs are pesky to computer programmers and users.

Main Idea:

Purpose of the text:​

Answers

Answer:

Main Idea: There are computer bugs that can be very harmful to the computer.

Purpose of the text:​ To show that the word "bug" has a different meaning from the conventional one and to present the problems that the computer bug can cause.

Explanation:

The main idea of a text refers to the message that the author wants to send about the subject the text is dealing with. In the text above, we can see that the subject that the author wants to present is the presence of "bugs" in computer operating systems. In this case, the author shows the main idea that these bugs are harmful to the functioning of the computer and the software present on it.

We can see then that the author's objective is to show how the word "bug" has a different meaning from what we know, because errors in an operating system and in any other software can cause problems in the functioning of a computer and this can be called of bug.

As sugar planters fled from the revolution in Haiti,
some moved to Cuba's Oriente Province, others to
North America—to Louisiana. By the time the Haitian
plantation owners and overseers reached New
Orleans, abolitionists were pressing to end the African

In fact, the state that slaves called Lousy Anna was
the very worst place for an African in America; it was

Answer:

1. Hector, did you sell Mike your car?

Indirect object: Mike

Indirect object: the dog

3. Give the usher your ticket.

Indirect object: the usher

8. I have given you my money.

Indirect object: you

9. Give Lee this message.

Indirect object: Lee

10. The club gave the town a new statue.

Indirect object: the town

Explanation:

The indirect object is the object/person that benefits from the action that the verb expresses. They are only on transitive verbs, that is to say, verbs that need an object to affect (a direct object).

To identify the indirect object:

First, we have to identify the verb.Ask the verb who?. For example, in the sentence, the club gave the town a new statue, the verb is give so, we ask who gave the town a new statue? The club. The club is the subject of the sentence.Then we ask what. Following the previous example, we ask the subject what, what did the club gave the town? The answer is a new statue. The direct object is a new statue. Notice that the verb give is a transitive one because it cannot stay on its own. It needs an object.Lastly, ask to whom. To whom did the club give a new statue? The answer is to the town. The indirect object is the town, which is the one that benefited from the verb. Also, we can identify the indirect object by reformulating the sentence so that the indirect object comes after the direct one. In those cases, the indirect object will always be preceded by to. For example, The club gave a new statue to the town.

Answers

Answer:

She's timid compared to Antigone, who is very bold.She gives more weight to civil law over moral principles than does Antigone.

Explanation:

Ismene and Antigone are sisters and the daughters of Oedipus. Antigone however, is the bolder of the two and follows mora principles over the law.

Ismene on the other hand, remains in the shadow of her sister as she is more timid because she believes that she has a certain place in society and does not want to ruffle any feathers.

She also tries to follow the law over moral principles as she believes the law to be absolute which is why she does not follow Antigone's plan to bury their brother as she did not want to go against the King's proclamation.

A.) Read the beginning of Jason's argumentative speech on the use of Internet slang and answer the question.

The use of acronyms, or abbreviations, is not new. In fact, there are examples of the use of acronyms that date back to antiquity. Ancient scribes had a daunting enough task without having to write out every word. The Christian Church has inscribed the acronym INRI, which stands for the Latin Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum ("Jesus the Nazarene, King of the Jews") over the crucifix for centuries. American and European corporations discovered long ago that it is easier to remember three letters than it is to remember three names. During the twentieth century, there was an upsurge in the use of acronyms that corresponded with the introduction of highly technical vocabulary. The tendency to shorten has an established history and many of these abbreviations have even found their way into the dictionary. Today, the use of time-saving abbreviations provides the language of internet and other wireless communication. But should it? Unlike in the past, this shortening does not represent a natural and necessary progression of language change. Internet slang is a manifestation of two much more serious problems with modern society— intellectual laziness and too little time.

Which sentence would provide the best transition into the counterargument paragraph of this essay?

1- OMG! don't we have bigger problems as a society than taking a few short-cuts when it comes to communication?

2- Until recently, the use of acronyms could be justified in most contexts.

3- Many would argue that there is no harm in populating our communication with OMGs and LOLs given their widespread use.

4- Intellectual laziness is a treatable disease, while finding more time is much more challenging.

B.) Read this excerpt from Jason's persuasive speech and answer the question.

2.) Add this sentnece to the above excerpt: Studies suggest that saving a few keystrokes can both reduce stress and lead to more productivity.

3.) Add this sentence to the above excerpt: However, while Internet slang shortcuts save time for the writer, according to at least one study they take two times as long for the reader to understand.

4.) Add this sentence to the above excerpt: Only strict grammarians object, arguing that Internet slang is a degradation of standard usage.

Answer:

Which sentence would provide the best transition into the counterargument paragraph of this essay?

3. Many would argue that there is no harm in populating our communication with OMGs and LOLs given their widespread use.

Which revision would add supporting evidence to best strengthen Jason's claim?

2. Add this sentence to the above excerpt: Studies suggest that saving a few keystrokes can both reduce stress and lead to more productivity.

Explanation:

For the first question, we must first understand what Jason's claim is. That can be found at the end of his introductory paragraph:

"Internet slang is a manifestation of two more serious problems with modern society - intellectual laziness and too little time."

Now, we must find a sentence to introduce a counterargument. A counterargument is an idea that opposes the argument. The argument claims that internet slang usage is a problem. The counterargument must state the contrary. The sentence that does that is number 3: "Many would argue that there is no harm in populating our communication with OMGs and LOLs given their widespread use." This sentence is basically stating that internet slang is not a problem.

For the second question, we need to choose the option the adds supporting evidence to the excerpt. In other words, we choose the option that agrees with and complements the excerpt. The excerpt states that slang makes communication easier. The only option that agrees with that is number 2. All the other options offer information or present ideas that go against that opinion. Sentence 2, however, explains that slang makes communication less stressful.
