    Alice is a three-year-old little girl who lives in a big city. She is very cute, her hair is long and brown and she is a little chubby. She certainly smiles beautifully, and her laughter is the most captivating thing. Her eyes seem to be always observing everything and everybody around her.

    Alice can be very moody sometimes. She can be crying for some silly reason in a moment and laughing the next. When she wants to watch her favorite cartoons, nothing can stop her. At night, when she feels hungry, she will not hesitate in screaming for food. If she does not get it right away, she screams again.

   She is very protective of children who are younger than her. Whenever she senses they are in danger, she will turn to an adult for help.

   She is indeed very kind and emotional. If she is watching one of her cartoons and a character is going through a hard time, she suddenly gets desperate and starts crying.

   Alice loves to take strolls around the street where she lives. In fact, she loves strolling anywhere she is taken, because she is a very social little girl who loves being around people, especially happy, excited ones who are her age.

   She likes to dress elegantly, like a real lady! She takes a long time to choose what to wear. Very narcissistic for her age, but that is just part of her cuteness!

   She is a musical person. Whenever she hears music, she easily gets used to the melodic patterns of it and all of a sudden starts singing like there is no tomorrow! She is particularly into nursery rhymes.

   Nowadays Alice has been obsessed with spiders of all kinds. She is both afraid and delighted whenever she sees one. In fact, she has a lot of plastic toy spiders, which she drags around the house all the time. Since she has an excellent sense of humor, she loves trying to scare her parents with those toys of hers.

   Alice is a very curious girl. If she notices anything happening around her, she stares obsessively at the people and the place where it is going on and keeps asking questions in her own peculiar way. She is very enthusiastic about discovering new things, and her eyes are those of an ace investigator who seeks information about a suspenseful event.  Alice is constantly eager to see everything, to interact with everyone. She is an adorable little girl who really wants to get to know the world!

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

Adressing the opposing claim

Explanation:

The author will address the opposite side's claim. They will state why it is correct and why they have a point. For this paragraph, they state why the opposite also has a valid reason and support it with quotations. Then they will use a counter-claim to state why your side is still better. This gives the reader a better reason to chose your side of the claim.

Which sentence expresses an argument that a typical English person in the 1700s or 1800s might have made to defend imperialism?
koban [17]

Answer:

D. "The people in the colonies benefit from our advanced technology."

Explanation:

The concept of imperialism states that a nation or country be taken over by another international nation, with the sole purpose of obtaining an advantage in terms of economic, geopolitical, social, or other factors.

Hence, option A and B does not apply since they are against imperialism and not in defense of the concept. Option C does not apply because it only concerns English people.
