English
1 answer:
ankoles [38]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

B). The first excerpt uses facts and statistics, and the second excerpt is told as a story.

Explanation:

The first excerpt from 'Children of the Drug Wars' <u>employs factual and statistical information that helps the author to serve her purpose of educating the readers about the impact of violence(led by wars) on children</u>. It also informs them regarding the increase in percentage of asylum claims as the violence left the children mentally distorted and it is this reason made around 58% to flee. While the second excerpt from 'Enrique's Journey' uses a narrative style to portray the hardships faced by Enrique to reconcile with his mother('jams his body, jumps off, etc.) through which the audience can connect themselves emotionally and elicit intended response. Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

If you are writing a summary of a science text about volcanoes, what  information should you include?

C. The causes and effects of volcanic eruptions .

Explanation:

<u>According to the instructions, we are writing a summary. We must not include our own opinion or ideas in a summary. Its purpose is to express, in fewer words, the same idea as the work being summarized expresses. Only relevant information should be included, otherwise the summary will end up being as long as the original text.</u> Having that in mind, we can easily eliminate options A, B, and D. Option C is the only one that presents important information. Letter B has irrelevant information, and letters A and D have an unnecessary expression of personal opinions an ideas.
