In this excerpt from President Kennedy of the 1963 Civil Rights Address, he emphasizes his point most by using anaphora to emphasize the lack of equality. Anaphora is a literary and rhetorical device that consists of the repetition of a word or phrase at the beginning of sentences or clauses. It is used to underscore the importance of certain ideas and to inspire, encourage or motivate the audience. Because of the repetition, it is likely to be remembered long since. In this excerpt, the President repeats "It ought to be possible", as a way of saying that equality has to be a civil right for all Americans.

Which of the following choices contains indirect characterization?

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

The first choice.

Explanation:

When using indirect characterization, an author does not state direct facts about a person's character, but rather describes the personality through verbal actions and gestures.

Selma keeping her eyes glue to the ground tells us that she is somewhat timid. Knowing that she avoids eye contact completely, even when someone talks to her, lets us know that Selma is shy to an extreme and perhaps antisocial.

write a very short letter to your friend in another state in Nigeria, telling him or her about an interesting book you have read

velikii [3]

Answer:

Dear Marianne,

Hey Mary, how are you doing? How's your family? Hope you're staying protected from the coronavirus?

I was just checking on you but I decided to use this opportunity to tell you about the book I recently read. It's called “Geek Girl: Head Over Heels." Basically, I came across the series a couple of weeks ago at my school library and immediately got interested.

I adore many things about the series; especially the cover page which is of the face of the geek girl, I find it intriguing. Each story has between 300 and 500 pages. It took me almost 2 weeks to complete my first one. The main character of the series is a teenage girl named Harriet Manners who works as a model travelling to different countries, whilst keeping her new social life and ever complicated schedules in place. The author, Holly Smale, also happened to be a model at that age, which inspired her to create the series. I love how she used her life experience in fiction. The last book known as "Geek Girl: Forever Geek" was recently published and I'm looking forward to reading it.

Hope you visit soon,

Soore...

Explain how the parts of the organization of a public document is similar to an outline

Veronika [31]

"The link between clear, logical organization and effective communication is powerful, both for the "sender" and the "receiver." For the writer, a well organized outline of information serves as a blue print for action. It provides focus and direction as the writer composes the document, which helps to ensure that the stated purpose is fulfilled. For the reader, clear organization greatly enhances the ease with which one can understand and remember the information being presented. People seek out patterns to help make sense of information. When the reader is not able to find a pattern that makes sense, chaos and confusion abound. Effective communication, then, begins with a clearly organized set of ideas following a logical, consistent pattern. Thus, one of the most important decisions a writer makes concerns the pattern of organization that is used to structure and order information."
