One of the bolded words is: "the roar of a bulldozer..." and this is used to create imagery and dramatic effect of the careless action of the construction company and their apparent disregard for the gopher tortoise that is listed as a protected species.

Another bolded part is shown in: "the darkness hugs you tightly in its arms and you are gone" as imagery is used again as the speaker wants to be as visually descriptive as possible to show the audience just how helpless the tortoises were and how callous the construction company was.

<h3>What is Imagery? </h3>

This refers to the use of visually descriptive words to show and create a mental image in the minds of the readers about the thing that is being described.

Hence, we can see that another bolded part goes thus: <em>"yes—they were very responsible" </em>which makes use of sarcasm to show the irresponsibility of the construction company and also how they were responsible for the loss of over a dozen gopher turtles who called Open Prairie their home.

Answer:

Topic: Helping families during the pandemic.

Explanation:

Dear Mr/Mrs (your US representative)

As you know we are entering a pandemic, and the economy will become bad. Many business owners are going to fire their employees or putting them on a break without pay. The employees that make up these businesses are mainly a part of the lower and lower-middle class. Now the question is: When these families don't have a monthly income, how are they going to survive this pandemic?

Of course the higher and higher middle class will have no problem staying home and can afford all of their necessities. But the government will have to help our community. I propose that there should be at least 3 days out of the week where the city counsel can give out groceries to the families in need. These groceries can have the basic needs such as bread, eggs, milk, juice, rice etc. When the counsel gives out the groceries, they could be stationed somewhere where everyone knows how to get there.

I'm sure the counsel has some money to be able to do this for the community. This could help the families in these difficult times. Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,

Your name
