3. Which sentence best summarizes how the First Amendment protects freedom of
Tresset [83]

Answer:

c. Even distasteful expressions of opinions are protected.

Explanation:

The First Amendment of the United States Constitution presents the citizens with the right to practice any religion they choose and have free speech and expression. In other words, it prevents the government from making any law that orders an individual to follow a certain religion or be stopped from freely expressing their thoughts.

And with this First Amendment, the freedom of expression covers the protection of even distasteful expressions. This is because freedom of expression allows a person to freely express whatever thoughts he believes in, regardless of the issue or causes.

Thus, the correct answer is option c.

In Langston Hughes's poem "Justice," what is Justice a symbol of?
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

C. the justice system skewed against African Americans.

Explanation:

Here's the poem:

That Justice is a blind goddess

Is a thing to which <u>we black are wise</u>:

Her bandage hides two festering sores

That once perhaps were eyes.

Notice how Hughes writes that "we black are wise." This implies that the justice he speaks of (which is referred to as a "her" throuhgout the poem) is "blind" when it comes to the struggles of African Americans.

Choice A is incorrect because the poem clearly implies that the justice system is biased against blacks.

Choice B is incorrect because the poem calls justice "blind," which implies that she is flawed.

Choice D is incorrect because there is no mention of "human rights" or not caring." Justice is described as being "blind" which does not imply either.

ELEN [110]

The suffix here would be 'ment', which means 'an act of, a state of, or a result of'. The suffix 'ment' changes the word from a verb to a noun, therefore to argue is a verb and becomes an argument which is a noun, to disagree is a verb and becomes a disagreement which is a noun. Therefore to define argument using this logic and one of the four options given the correct answer would be C. state of disagreement.

(ELA) Expressions that seem to say one thing but actually mean something else are called:
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

B. idioms

Explanation:

<u>Idioms are phrases or expressions that say one thing but are in fact conveying a different meaning which is previously culturally established. </u>

If one tries to understand them literally, they won’t have much sense. Yet, those who know language proficiently will understand the meaning of these phases in a metaphoric sense accepted in the common language and the symbolic matter.

<u>Some of the examples can be:</u>

  • <u>when the pigs fly</u> – this means something will never happen, as pigs do not fly
  • <u>piece of cake</u> – means something is very easily achieved and accomplished with little effort.
  • <u>to pull someone’s leg </u>– idiom meaning to joke with someone, to make them believe in something which is not true, but in a playful way. \
  • <u>to break the ice</u> – meaning to do something first and make others at ease, to relieve the tension.
