des ago there was rubble, today in West Berlin there is the greatest industrial output of any city in Germany: busy office blocks, fine homes and apartments, proud avenues, and the spreading lawns of parkland.

Answer:

The correct answer is number <u>1. By creating a contrast between the past and present of West Berlin, the speaker emphasizes his viewpoint.</u>

<u />

Explanation:

In the passage we are analyzing here, the speaker is conveying the idea that West Berlin has risen from the ashes, going from a destroyed post-War city to a rebuilt and thriving place. To do so, the speaker uses parallelism when comparing the past and the present -- "where..., today..." -- as well as examples that support his point -- office blocks, fine homes, universities, orchestras etc. By contrasting both stages, past and present, of Berlin with parallelism, the speaker emphasizes his point of view.

Carla has come across an example which has been used in her Ecology textbook three different times. How should Carla adjust her
melomori [17]
Given that Carla has already knowledge of the example from the Ecology textbook, then her reading will increase. It is called a prereading, it is a technique in which the reader will skim the text before reading it thoroughly. 

Carla already has an idea on what she will be ready since she has come across the example before reading the text carefully.
