Read this excerpt from the Declaration of Independence.

English
1 answer:
Andrews [41]2 years ago
3 0

The statement that best describes the excerpt is "This is the minor premise of the Declaration of Independence," as stated in option A and explained below.

<h3>What is a minor premise?</h3>

A premise is an affirmation or statement that functions as the basis for a conclusion. We can have a major premise and a minor premise. Take a look at the examples below:

  • Some animals are mammals. --> Major premise.
  • All cats are mammals. --> Minor premise.
  • Some animals are cats. --> Conclusion.

As we can see above, the minor premise is related to the major premise. With that in mind, we can see that the excerpt from the Declaration of Independence is a minor premise. It is related to the major premise that the 13 colonies should break free from England.

With the information above in mind, we can choose option A as the correct answer.

s2008m [1.1K]

We can cite the striking "blind spots" of Scout, Aunt Alexandra, and Mayella Ewell.

<h3>What are and what are the impacts of these blind spots?</h3>
  • Scout's blind spot is believing that all humanity is kind and fair.
  • This blind spot impacts Scout herself, leaving her disappointed and bitter towards the people she trusted.
  • Aunt Alexandra's blind spot is her supremacist view of the south and the behavior of southerners.
  • This blind spot promotes racism and social inequality that impacts the most vulnerable characters in the book.
  • Mayella Ewell's blind spot is related to the certainty that she needs to use physical attributes and lies to get out of trouble.
  • This affects Mayella Ewell herself and promotes injustice and death to innocent people.

The blind spots presented in the book make the characters realistic and more humanized as they make them represent common behaviors in real American society.

This promotes reflection in the reader, who can recognize their own blind spots and how negative they are.

If you were writing an essay on the historical development of genetically-modified vegetables, which research source listed belo
Lapatulllka [165]
A company making profit from genetically modified potatoes would probably only say good things about genetically modified profits, so they'd likely be biased.

A book written by a freelance author whose previous books were about other scientific issues would likely have the book about genetic modification in general, rather than the historical development of it, so his book wouldn't be the best source to use.

A book written by a woman who believes she got sick from genetically modified products would probably be biased against genetically modified products, so her book wouldn't be the best source.

A book written by a scientist who helped develop the technology to genetically modify vegetables would probably know a lot about the historical development, considering he helped develop it. This is the best source to use in my opinion.

Flura [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Langston Hughes was born in Joplin, Missouri, on 1st Februray 1901. Hughes was an American poet, activist, novelist, and so on. He had major influence in his writings of other prominent poets such as Walt Whitman, Carl Sandburg, Paul Laurence Dunbar, and Claude McKay.

These poets used the medium of poetry to convey their opinion or expose any social vices prevalent in their society. For instance, Walt Whitman in his poem titled 'Song of Myself' wrote about human vices and his selfishness and self-centeredness.

<u>Similarly, Hughes wrote the poems to speak about social vices. In his poem '</u><u>Dream Deferred</u><u>' he wrote about the life of people when dream is denied to them. The hidden message that one can infer from this poem is that he is also speaking about the lives of the blacks people who were denied to live the life of their dream and denied basic rights</u>.
