Through my binoculars, I viewed a group of wild animals in action. A pride of lions was sleeping when a small, yellow bus pulled

up beside them. Tourists on a safari were packed into the bus like sardines in a can. Armed with cameras, they invaded the lions' territory, hoping to capture the perfect photograph. The crowd leaned out the windows, hooting and hollering, until the lions awoke. When the lions moved away, the bus rolled after them, relentlessly stalking the pride. One of the lions turned and roared to protect the young. This was greeted with cheers and a celebratory honk of the bus horn. The curious visitors observed the lions' routine for an hour before moving on. Leaving a cloud of dust, the bus headed away, taking the wild animals off to disturb someone else's home.
Review the following line from the text:

The nosy visitors observed the lions' routine for nearly an hour before moving on.

To create a more positive connotation, the author could have replaced the word nosy with which of the following synonyms?

Curious
Intrusive
Meddlesome
Prying

In order to create a more positive connotation where implying the word "nosy" as a negative implication, it could have been replaced with the word "curious".

Curious implies that they are just trying to observe and learn. Nosy means they are being somewhat intrusive.

I think D: "prying" is the answer because it says that they observed the lions routine so there watching the lion.

(I hope this helped you if not sorry but I'm very positive about my answer.)

Delivering a speech in a conversational style from a well-developed and researched outline is termed?
notsponge [240]

Delivering a speech in a conversational style from a well-developed and researched outline is termed as <u>extemporaneous speaking.</u>

Extemporaneous speaking refers to the delivery of a carefully prepared speech that has been perfected, spoken informally while using brief notes. And a speaker who reads from a prepared manuscript can be effective when speaking extemporaneously.

Extemporaneous speeches are not read or memorized, so the speaker must be able to "think on their feet," which can be stressful but also foster a high degree of spontaneity and produce a natural, conversational style.

Extemporaneous speeches are more spontaneous because they are almost entirely created in the moment. However, because they demand extensive planning and research, they typically have much greater depth and are therefore typically the preferred approach.

What is the difference between affect and effect, and when would you use both?

Affect is when something has changed. For example you could say that spring affects your allergies. Effect is the result of something. Another example would be when you didn't pay attention in class, the effect would show in your work or test grades. You use affect as a verb and Effect as a noun
