Answer:

The Zoot Suit Riots were a series of violent clashes during which mobs of U.S. servicemen, off-duty police officers and civilians brawled with young Latinos and other minorities in Los Angeles.

Explanation:

The Zoot Suit Riots were a series of conflicts on June 3–8, 1943 in Los Angeles, California, United States, which pitted American servicemen stationed in Southern California against Mexican-American youths who were residents of the city. It was one of the dozen wartime industrial cities that suffered race-related riots in the summer of 1943, along with Mobile, Alabama; Beaumont, Texas; Detroit, Michigan; and New York City.

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

D. The author follows the comment with "Mrs. Sue lied again."

Explanation:

Verbal irony is a type of lie that is added to the text. This kind of irony is perceived when the character says something, but actually thinks the opposite of what he said, that is, what the character says is not really what he wants and does not represent his real thoughts about a certain thing.

In the case shown in the question above, we can conclude that the use of verbal irony was established to show that Sue was lying, since she said something, but wants the exact opposite.

Of these four words, which one is most likely to have a negative flavor or connotation?
Oduvanchick [21]
Of these four words, the one which is most likely to have a negative flavor or connotation is d)meander. To confuse is the state of being bewildered or unclear in one's mind about something. To distract is to the divided attention of an individual or a group away from the designated object on which the focus should be put on. A harangue is a long speech delivered in front of an audience. To meander is to walk around aimlessly without a fixed direction which contains a negative flavor or connotation.

How can you write an informative essay about a historical event?How can you write an informative essay about a historical event?
kenny6666 [7]
To write an essay about a historical event, I would do research. I would consult textbooks, the internet, and other resources that have information relevant to a historical event that I am writing an essay on. To write an informative essay about a historical event, I would want a strong thesis statement, and strong supporting body paragraphs. I would want the body of my essay to be full of detail and factual information from my research (which of course you want to sight :)) Additionally, I would want to use strong transition words and powerful vocabulary. Finally, I would want my essay to be engaging.



Hope this helps :)

Why do you think the author chose to rewrite the story of Beowulf from Grendel’s point of view?
NNADVOKAT [17]
It is called the third person or the Omniscient. <span> To present Beowulf's thoughts, for instance, the narrator adopts the point of view of an omniscient author and gives us a glimpse into Beowulf's mind; or he causes Beowulf to reveal his private thoughts by having him declare them through a public utterance. In either case, a reader's attention is directed toward Beowulf. </span>
