Answer:

I think the most helpful way to create a more formal and professional tone is to eliminate the informal language.

Explanation:

The paragraph has phrases like "off the hook", or homeless "peeps" that are not accurate for a formal request. If those words or phrases are changed for more formal ones, the whole request will sound more serious and important.

Where would you most likely encounter a flashback

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

in a biographical film

Explanation:

A flashback is a transition in a story to an earlier time, that interrupts the normal chronological order of events. A flashback in a movie might show what happened when a character was younger.

Flashbacks are often used for comedic effect, to prove or contradict something in the present. For example, if a character in a sitcom claims he does the dishes every single night, flashbacks could show him ignoring a giant pile of dirty dishes on various occasions. Flashback can also mean a sudden, vivid remembrance of past events, like having a flashback to your kindergarten days if you go visit that classroom today.
