Answer:

  • She is outspoken and direct.

Explanation:

A naive young lady, Editha bases her nostalgic perspectives about the war on the sensationalist reporting that she peruses in the present papers. She demands that her life partner, George Pearson, an outspoken opponent, battle in the Spanish-American War. She is overjoyed that war is being announced and can't comprehend his aversion for war and his reluctance to battle in a war. She trusts that a man who needs to win he should plan something for merit her. Presently is his opportunity, on the grounds that the Spanish-American War has been pronounced. Editha happily rehashes jingoistic paper expressions to George, however he stays amusing, astute, and judicious.

At the point when George leaves Editha's essence after the war has been proclaimed, Editha's mom says that she trusts that George won't enroll, yet Editha trusts that he will. Editha puts her wedding band and different keepsakes into a bundle with a letter to George guiding him to keep them until he enrolls. She chooses to keep the bundle for some time in the event that George makes the best decision. George comes back to the Balcom family unit that night with the news that he has driven the prowar speakers at the town meeting and will be the chief of the neighborhood volunteers.

Which of the following claims does Eric Deggans develop in the text ?
Reika [66]

Assuming the text is "Learning How to Code-Switch: Humbling, but Necessary" (2013) and you had to choose between the following claims:

<em>A. Code-switching keeps people from expressing themselves by promoting one correct style of communication.</em>

<em>B. It is important to recognize that code-switching can help a person succeed and celebrate all aspects of their identity.</em>

<em>C. The United States consists of great cultural variety and no one should be discriminated against for speaking a certain way.</em>

<em>D. Many successful people have used code-switching, but it is unfair to expect minorities to have multiple communication styles.</em>

Deggans' thesis is that it is important to recognize that code-switching can help a person succeed and  celebrate all aspects of their identity (B).

<u>Code-switching</u> means alternating between languages or communication styles according to the context (cultural, professional, casual, etc.).

Deggans' testimony shows that being able to code-switch is what has helped him to integrate social groups which were different from the poor black neighborhood he came from, while maintaining his identity.

This answer is supported by such such quotes as:

  • "expertly navigating another culture wasn’t a  rejection of where I’d come from or a signal that I was any less authentically black;"
  • "it’s a reminder to be fully who you are at all times, while making sure you’re understood well enough to  be valued, respected and considered."

What is the BEST way to combine the information in the two sentences below?
natulia [17]

The answer is A. Mercedes threw Andrea, Mercedes' best friend, a surprise party last night.  This choice uses an appositive ("Andrea, Mercedes' best friend,") to combine the two sentences.  An appositive is a phrase separated from the rest of the sentence by commas that describes something (in this case Andrea).


Choices B and C are incorrect because the uses of the words "but" and "when" to combine the sentences do not make logical sense.  Choice D is incorrect because it uses a comma to combine the sentences without a conjunction, creating a run-on sentence.


Hope this helps!
