The statement that best describes how the image reinforces the text is the one that reads as follows: "The image aids readers' understanding of key concepts".  

Images are far more explanatory and descriptive. They show what the text tries to say in more graphic way, so the reader gets a clear idea. It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words. By putting together both the images and the text, the readers get the whole picture.

Alina [70]

Answer:

C. One of my ancestors fought at the battle of Gettysburg.

Explanation:

Capitalization or the use of capital letters in a sentence or word is used for nouns, especially proper nouns. Moreover, it is also used to start a sentence, with names, months, days, holidays, festivals, etc.

Among the given options, sentence C has an error in the use of capitalization. The "Battle of Gettysburg" is a historical battle fought between the Union and Confederate armies. And thus, the name of the battle is a proper noun. Thus, capital letter should be used when writing the name of the battle.

Thus, the correct way to write the given sentence should be <em>"One of my ancestors fought at the Battle of Gettysburg."</em>

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Which part of this excerpt from Jhumpa Lahiri’s “Once in a Lifetime” indicates Hema’s mother’s Bengali heritage?
miv72 [106K]

Answer: E) My mother considered the idea of a child sleeping alone a cruel American practice.

This sentence shows that the mother had a cultural background that was different from the American one. Even though for most Americans, a child sleeping alone would be common, for her it was a cruel practice. The excerpt shows that Hema's mother does not endorse all American practices, which indicates she has a different cultural heritage, in this case, a Bengali one.

NemiM [27]

A. “Everyone knows at least one of those people who are willing to jeopardize their  own health and well-being to help others.” (Paragraph 1)

B. “News stories often focus on grander cases of altruism, such as a man who dives

into an icy river to rescue a drowning stranger or a generous donor who gives  thousands of dollars to a local charity.” (Paragraph 4)

C. “Prosocial behavior refers to any action that benefits other people, no matter  what the motive or how the giver benefits from the action.” (Paragraph 5)

D. “Do we ever engage in helping others for truly altruistic reasons, or are there  hidden benefits to ourselves that guide our altruistic behaviors?” (Paragraph 15)

“Do we ever engage in helping others for truly altruistic reasons, or are there  hidden benefits to ourselves that guide our altruistic behaviors?” (Paragraph 15)

Option D.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The article altruism: why we risk our own well-being to help others talks about being good to other people and help them where ever and how ever possible.

Be an altruistic might reap the people benefits which they might have not even expected which would be a result of their being kind and helpful to the other people. But according to the passage, there are few chances of true altruistic being existent.
