Read the following excerpt from an argumentative essay. Answer the question that follows.

1 answer:

7 0

The answer is D. The author supplies a rebuttal that quotes more current research. He quotes two sources, an article from 2009 that argues that cell phones cause too many distractions (the counterclaim that he wishes to disprove) and a poll from 2013 that reveals that 67% of high school instructors now encourage students to use phones in the classroom setting. The second source serves as a counterpoint to the first, since it shows that high school instructors now view phones as a teaching aid instead of a source of distraction.

Hi so basically I have entered a sad stage and I am always feeling lonely. This lockdown has slowly killed my mental health. I also am tired of not being able to buy toliet paper we ran out last week and let's just say it has been a rough week. So if this lockdown would end that would be great.

Semmy [17]

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

"While the people of Guilder were forced to read propaganda, the citizens of Florin were able to read honest, fact-based news reporting." In this example, the word "propaganda" can be defined through:

A. Homophones

B. Homonyms

C. Synonyms

D. Antonyms

Answer:

In this example, the word "propaganda" can be defined through:

D. Antonyms

Explanation:

All the options given indicate types of context clues. A context clue can be defined as a piece of information given by the author that can help the reader understand something. In this case, if the reader does not know what the word "propaganda" means, he can infer it by reading on to the antonyms that appear shortly after: "honest, fact-based news reporting." Antonyms are words that have opposite meanings. If "honest, fact-based news reporting" is an antonym for "propaganda", the reader can infer that propaganda consists of false or modified information.
