Hello. You forgot to put the text to which this question refers. The text is:
Learning to play the trumpet may appear rather simple. After all, there are only three keys and a mouthpiece, right? However, many musicians will attest to the challenge of learning how to play the trumpet well. Playing the trumpet musically comes from developing what is called the embouchure (ahm-boo-shoor). This is how the player’s mouth muscles make contact with the mouthpiece and inevitably produce pleasing sounds—not noise, but beautiful tones. Remember that there are only three keys on the trumpet, so they must be pressed in multiple combinations to change pitch. Together with the musician’s lip muscles, the keys help determine pitch and quality of sound.
Some teachers insist beginning students learn the best technique by first starting with “buzzing.” A vibrating sound is made by forcing air out of the lips while they are tightly pursed. It’s not as easy as it may sound. It should be practiced first without the horn. Try doing this while changing pitches up and down the scale, or “sing-buzzing” different tunes. From this simple beginning, a student then progresses to buzzing into the mouthpiece. After success with this drill, students learn to change pitches, and with much practice will develop a decent tone when they play their trumpet. Practice is key to playing the trumpet well, despite its seeming simplicity
Answer:
B. However, many musicians will attest to the challenge of learning how to play the trumpet well.
C. After success with this drill, students learn to change pitches, and with much practice will develop a decent tone when they play their trumpet.
Explanation:
In the text the author presents arguments about how musicians feel that playing a trumpet is a great challenge, because the structure of the bugle, refers to a strong difficulty to play and generate good and decent sounds.
In the two statements above, we can see how the author of the text justifies the arguments, first he shows how the musicians prove the difficulty and secondly, he shows how it takes technique and a combination of lips and fingers to produce pleasant sounds.
The correct answer is satire.
Twain is being very satirical when he wrote about Jim and Huck talking about King Solomon. According to the Bible, King Solomon was the wisest man of them all, but Huck doesn't understand how that could be possible due to what he learned about such people during his life. So Twain tried to mock formal education and religion through this discussion.
After reading the sentences, we can tell we are supposed to use the words in parentheses to form phrases that will complete the blank spaces. We can do it in the following manner:
- My brother <u>was on his own</u> when the accident happened.
- I <u>gave up on reading</u> the book after the first three chapter because it was so boring.
- The heat <u>made it impossible fo</u>r me to get on with my work.
This question requires knowledge about collocations.
<h3>What are collocations?</h3>
- Collocations are words that are often used together in order to convey meaning. Their joint usage is so common that we say they sound good and natural together.
- Let's use number 1 above as an example. We must use the word "own" to fill in the blank. We also know that we should say something implying that the brother was alone.
- The best option is to say <u>he was on his own</u> when the accident happened. "To be on one's own" means to be alone, and it is a common phrase (collocation) to use and express such meaning.
