This question is missing the excerpt. I've found it online. It is the following:
Read the excerpt from "Children of the Drug Wars."
By sending these children away, "you are handing them a death sentence," says José Arnulfo Ochoa Ochoa, an expert in Honduras with World Vision International, a Christian humanitarian aid group. This abrogates international conventions we have signed and undermines our credibility as a humane country. It would be a disgrace if this wealthy nation turned its back on the 52,000 children who have arrived since October, many of them legitimate refugees.
The underlined words and phrases have strong negative connotations. How do they support the author's purpose? [...]
Answer:
They support the author's purpose because:
A. They draw attention to the opinion that the United States is not doing enough to help these children.
Explanation:
<u>Even though the excerpt is missing the underlined words and phrases, there is only one option that has any true connection with what is being said. The excerpt is about how the U.S. has been failing to help children who arrive in the country as refugees. Instead of welcoming them with care and safety, they are often sent away, back to their countries. It is clear that the U.S. is not doing enough for those children. Therefore, the correct option is letter A.</u>
Options B through D can be easily eliminated. This excerpt does not concern other countries' roles in this crisis, international conventions, or the way in which the U.S. will be regarded by other nations.
Answer:
The ability to be extra.
Explanation:
When people act extra for no reason.
The choice which best describes the author's ad hominem attack on department store proprietors is
- The author denounces their phony sympathy for poor people.
<h3>What is ad hominem?</h3>
This is the a fallacy in which someone's claim is being attacked based on that person being inconsistent. It occurs when you irrelevantly attack the person instead of addressing the person's argument.
The author denounces their phony sympathy for poor people. This means the author denounce the departmental store proprietors fake sympathy for poor people.
Department stores are usually a store mostly patronized by high income earners and important people in the society. So, it is a fallacy if the store proprietors of departmental stores sympathize with poor people because they didn't put poor people into consideration before establishing their store.
