Answer:
Correct answer is A: It is a part of the exposition that describes Buck's
Explanation:
The story follows a dog named Buck, and all the misfortunes that happen to him. At one point of his life, he becomes a sled dog. It is true that in the lines following the mentioned paragraph, the author mentions that Buck welcomed these two dogs, but the accent of the story isn't really on Buck making friends. Also, there is mention about Spitz beating Billie and how Buck and Sol-leks got into a fight, but the accent of these paragraphs isn't on the fight. The writer rather focuses on the personal characteristics of each dog, which means that this is exposition that describes each of Buck's teammates.
The answer is B. Although it may seem the other answers are correct as well, in fact they are not. A 'complex paragraph' is indeed one which explains multiple sides of an issue, but favors one, thus only one main topic is represented. It doesn't really matter where the topic sentence is placed - it can be anywhere in the paragraph. However, it is traditionally placed in the first sentence, although that rule isn't written in stone - the topic sentence can also be placed at the end of the paragraph. Therefore, we are left with only one option, and that is B, 'a paragraph should have one main topic'.
Answer:
Most people probably agree to this, honesty is the key to understanding how someone really feels and can keep from causing trouble.
Some reasons are because no one wants to be lied to, people want to be trusted, and when you lie that trust slips away.
And a lot of the time lying or hiding the truth is a very heavy burden that can become too much, causing people to feel pain mentally and to a certain rate physically, depending on how bad the situation is.
Although the majority agree with this you also need to consider that some people don't agree.
Sometimes telling the truth is really harsh and can discourage someone. Sometimes the truth is something no one wants to hear. Also, you can lie to protect yourself in dangerous situations.
Like if someone asks for personal information like address, or hometown, usually, you would refuse but making something up is also an option. Maybe someone asks you something personal that pushes you out of your comfort zone or gives you trauma/pain people might not want to be honest in order to protect themselves.
I hope this is a good answer and it helps! :)
