Your question is incomplete because it not does not provide the options to choose from, which are the following:
It misuses a statistic to overstate the amount of crime committed in New York City.
It assumes that because one person commits a crime, others will do so as well.
It uses an incorrect appeal to the New York Police Department as an authority.
It assumes that the police policy was the cause of the drop in crime.
Answer:
It assumes that the police policy was the cause of the drop in crime.
Explanation:
In the passage, the speaker does not mention any other causes which may have lead to the reduction of crime in New York City, such as a rise in employment, education and better quality of life. As a consequence, the speaker takes for granted that the only reason for the decrease of the crime rate is the stop-and-frisk policy, which he or she believes should be continued.
you got the poem or do i have to search it up?
The first state bill was introduced into the New York legislature, but the first to become law was passed byOregon on February 21, 1887. During the year four more states — Colorado, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and New York — created the Labor Day holiday by legislative enactment.
The two mistakes in the sentence are "trophys" and "metals".
The plural form of "trophy" is "trophies" not "trophys" because the plural form of nouns that end in "-y" is usually "-ies".
In the sentence, "metals" is not wrongly spelled but it does not make much sense. It is quite strange to say to someone not to touch trophies and metals, the two objects do not seem to have any type of relationship. If you consider that the person is talking about awards and prizes, instead of metals, he or she is referring to "medals".
Even though there are two more mistakes, I don't think the question aims at those. Just remember that the sentence should start with a capital letter and finish with a full stop.
So the sentence would read: Do not touch trophies or medals.
Read the sentence.
Several cars had to stop to allow a mother duck and her babies to walk across the road.
Select the word from the drop-down-menu that correctly completes the sentence.
The word "across" functions as a(n)
A. adjective
B conjunction
C interjection
D preposition
Answer:
A. adjective
Explanation:
An adjective is a part of speech that is used to describe a noun, noun phrase and other words in a sentence.
From the given sentence, the word "allow" is used to show how the mother duck and her babies were allowed to cross the road.
It functions as an adjective in that sentence.
