Answer:

The statement that BEST explains why this quotation from the selection includes jargon is The phrase eurocentric curricula would not be understood by most people.

Explanation:

The question is missing the Excerpt from Music to My Ears by John Devine, here it is:

My meanderings into the shaded grove of poetry seemed like the perfect escape from my father’s medical mumbo jumbo until I realized in college that my literature professors often sounded as poetic as a ten-car pileup. I recall in particular one professor who asked us to read a poem by Alexander Pope called The R-ape of the Lock, a humorous poem about a young man who cuts off a wisp of a young woman’s hair. Sounds pretty straightforward, right? Well, before I knew what was what, my young professor demanded that I “deconstruct” the poem and analyze it for evidence of what she called “commodity fet-ishism.” “I want to read the thing,” I told her, “Not pull it apart.” And when I asked her what commodity fet-ishism was, she looked at me as if I were some inferior life form. “Look it up!” Said she, frowning. I had to pull an all-nighter to finish that assignment in time. It wasn't long before she had me writing a paper on the evils of eurocentric curricula. I finally put my foot down when she demanded that I attend her lecture on the perils of Islamaphobia.

By reading this excerpt from "Music to My Ears " by John Devine we can see that the narrator is having a hard time trying to understand what the professor was demanding, then in the quotation, we have the use of jargon as a critic and emphasis of the way the professor miscommunicate because of the insistence of using jargon.

What is your opinion of cancel culture as a whole? In a 2019 interview, Barack Obama challenged youth activists on their “purity
SOVA2 [1]

My idea on cancel culture is that it can get extreme and unproductive when it gets toxic.

<h3>Cancel culture</h3>

Cancel culture is a way that people use to express their displeasure and anger over issues that they find dissatisfying.

It leads to ostracizing people or organizations due to their acts, behaviors or opinions.

Even though it can deter people and even organizations from posting offensive views, it could be negative most times.

  • Cancel culture can get too far when the people are against anyone who has a different opinion from them.
  • It could be regarded as toxic if it drives the other party to want to harm themselves
  • If it involves invasion of privacy and threat.

It is not the best response for wrongdoing because there are other ways of tackling issues and disagreements without ostracizing the other person.

Based on “Mother Tongue” by Amy Tan, write a thematic statement and write one rhetorical strategy that creates pathos. Explain w
timurjin [86]

Answer:

Thematic statement: The effort of foreigners to speak the English language must be respected.

Rhetorical strategy that creates pathos: The immigrant is part of the construction of the country, disrespects him because of the way he speaks is to disrespect the nation and promote the discomfort of citizens who are struggling to communicate.

Explanation:

In “Mother Tongue”, Amy Tan reveals her experience living with her foreign mother in America. Amy's mother is Chinese and although she understands English perfectly, she has difficulties in speaking the language fluently and with the rules of grammar established perfectly. This caused Amy's mother to be disrespected and ignored several times, causing her severe discomfort and preventing her, as a contributor in the nation, from living a full life.

This type of behavior is not correct, especially when we live in a country created and built by immigrants, who are the basis of all American families and citizens, with the exception of the natives.
