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.

12. Beatty again talks about society. What were people interested in? List details. How did these
GrogVix [38]

Answer: According to Beatty, society got so overpopulated, so sensitive to insult, and so concerned with pleasure, that things which created divisions became so unwelcome as to be dangerous to social order itself. The startling point of Beatty's explanation is that censorship started with the people, not the government (although the government stepped in later in accordance with the people's wishes). Most people stopped reading books long before they were ever burned. In Fahrenheit 451, society evolved into Bradbury's dystopia after the population dramatically increased and technology improved. ... Eventually, the population stopped reading and preferred to consume mindless entertainment. The government capitalized on the population's ignorance by censoring literature altogether. He's the head honcho fireman, but he knows more about books than anyone else. He burns these texts with a fiery vengeance (wink wink), but he spends half his time quoting from them. ... He used to be curious about books, just like Montag is. He used to question the system, just like Montag.

Explanation: I put info about diff things. Hopfuly this was helpful.

All of the following methods are ways to correct a run-on sentence except
rodikova [14]
I think it is letter c. adding a conjunction between the complete sentences. The other ones can be used on a run on sentence. Letter c. is an example of a bad way to fix a run on.

Why was macbeth a bad king explain?
Ket [755]

I think that this is a very hard question to answer. I think that many kings, fictional or not, possess both the bad and good traits of being a king.

In regards to Macbeth, he certainly possessed the ambition many would wish for a king. He was brave, as noted by Duncan and the title of the Thane of Cawdor. He was protective, as noted by his murder of Banquo. Macbeth was even proud, as seen by his desire to keep the new title of Thane before taking the crown.

Unfortunately, many of the characteristics one would align with being a good king made Macbeth a bad king as well. Macbeth was too ambitious--as seen by his murdering Duncan. He was too protective--as seen by his inability to interpret the apparitions warnings in the correct way. Lastly, he was too proud--as seen by his refusal to leave the castle as Birnam Wood "moved" against him.

Like anything, one must always have control. Too much of anything normally turns out to be a bad thing. Therefore, depending upon one's individual views, Macbeth could be both a bad king or a good one.

BTW: It's free real estate.
