Answer:

C. To point out the harm done by bullies

Explanation:

The above passage starts from the time Lorie was brought up and the effects of her being bullied by the two older children. Since there are repercussions of that bullying even after her shift to a new city life and school, it is more on the theme of the bullying effect than the life story of Lorie. So, the main purpose of the essay from which the following passage was taken is to point out the harm done by bullies.

<em>dialog that subtly suggests communication conflicts</em> This is the correct option.

The charters in the story ,“Hills Like White Elephants”, talk about "it" all the time. The reader has to infer that what the man and the woman are talking about is an abortion. However, they seem to have difficulties to speak openly about it and they do not have it clear what they will decide. There are communication conflicts. The man thinks he knows what will be best for the woman but she does not sound so assertive. Their dialogue is fragmented. There is not a "history" line through it. The reader has to assume how it is they got together and she became pregnant. Yet, the couple are faced with a difficulty they find it hard to talk about.

These options are not right:

-characters who hide secret intentions from one another ( In this case, the woman is not hiding her pregnancy, for example. The man is not hiding his intentions , either. They cannot talk freely and openly about their problem: the woman 's pregnancy).

-imagery that highlights the importance of the setting. ( The imagery is used metaphorically to ,probably, represent the characters' emotions and moods).

-metaphors that reveal significant plot developments. ( Heminway tends to use simple language to get closer to the reader. Therefore, he will not oversuse sophisticated language).

Why does Douglass say he feels distanced from the people to whom he is speaking? (5 points) They have families, and he does not.
kondaur [170]

Douglass says that he feels distanced from the people to whom he is speaking because <u>they identify with free people, and he identifies with slaves.</u><u> </u>

Fredrick Douglass gave this famous speech before the Civil Wars. His speech was about the Hippocratic nature that the Americans have been facing and practicing simultaneously. As he moves on with the speech he becomes angrier. He wants slavery to be abolished through any means. He speaks about the celebration of 4th July which was to be celebrated as the day of freedom. It is very disappointing for him to see that the people are celebrating the freedom of a nation which has been build on the surface of slavery. In his speech, he mentions about his own people who do not associate themselves with the slaves rather they identify themselves with the whites.

What does the oxymoron "weirdly normal" mean in the sentence?
Solnce55 [7]

Answer: A

Explanation:

"Reality is weirdly normal." It's "normal" in odd ways, by strange means, in surprising senses.

At the risk of vivisecting poetry, and maybe of stating the obvious, I'll point out that the maxims mean different things by "normal". In the first two, what's "normal" or "usual" is the universe taken on its own terms — the cosmos as it sees itself, or as an ideally calibrated demon would see it. In the third maxim, what's "normal" is the universe humanity perceives — though this still doesn't identify normality with what's believed or expected. Actually, it will take some philosophical work to articulate just what Egan's "normality" should amount to. I'll start with Copernicanism and reductionism, and then I'll revisit that question.

Put an apostrophe after the stressed syllable.
Blizzard [7]

The place where the apostrophe should be put is form 'ally.

Explanation:

All English words have syllables. An easy way to understand a syllable is, when you say words aloud clap your hands . One clap words have one syllable and they are not stressed out.

For example: Words like walk, talk, bought, bat e t c are said easily and have one clap.

But  words like happy, angry, pretty, ugly e t c, when they are spoken aloud,  require two claps, as these words are stressed and broken into two syllables.

Similarly for the word formally, it requires two claps when you speak the word out . This shows that there are two syllables in the word formally.
