<u>Answer:</u>

  • ‘Cloudy Day’ is a poem written by Jimmy Santiago. This poem is based on the central idea that no matter in whatever situation you’re in, there’s always a ray of hope.
  • When we read the first stanza, it makes us clear that Baca (the person who is poisoned) is talking about his own life story.
  • In the every first stanza we get some details which is not quite possible for an ordinary man to come up with such details.
  • Only the one who is imprisoned can show us the reality of life. The tone used by the speaker is very encouraging and optimistic one.

How does the author reveal personal voice of narrator in picture perfect by marie devers
spayn [35]

"Picture Perfect" is a short story about a girl, the main character and narrator, who discovers that she is better suited to be the photographer for her school´s yearbook instead of being part of the promoting team. As she sits on the first meeting of the project, the narrator wonders about her abilities and finds that she is not well-prepared, unlike her classmates. In the end, she goes to her grandmother who advices her to rather think about becoming the photographer, shows her that she herself was the photographer at her school´s yearbook and then hands her grandchild a black camera. The narrator, after several attempts, finds out that in truth she has the spirit of a photographer and at the second yearbook meeting, she is no longer scared, or unsure of what she will offer, but shows off her talents and feels rather proud of herself.

The way to know that the writer is using personal voice, and that the narrator is actually the main character and the story is hers, is through the use of the personal pronoun "I", which grammatically is the main characteristic of the personal voice. Also, as you read, you can relate the story only to the narrator, as everything is lived and experienced through her eyes and no one else´s. You cannot gather any information outside of what the narrator is experiencing as the main character in the story.

Investigative Journalism Is An Invasion Of Privacy. Discuss It In 750 Words
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Investigative journalism is a form of journalism in which that reporters deeply investigate a single topic of interest, such as serious crimes, political corruption, or corporate wrongdoing. An investigative journalist may spend many months or years researching and preparing a report. Investigative journalism is a primary source of information.

Explanation:

Investigative journalism is a form of journalism in which reporters deeply investigate a single topic of interest, such as serious crimes, political corruption, or corporate wrongdoing. An investigative journalist may spend months or years researching and preparing a report. Practitioners sometimes use the terms "watchdog reporting" or "accountability reporting".

Most investigative journalism has traditionally been conducted by newspapers, wire services, and freelance journalists. With the decline in income through advertising, many traditional news services have struggled to fund investigative journalism, which is time-consuming and therefore expensive. Journalistic investigations are increasingly carried out by news organisations working together, even internationally (as in the case of the Panama Papers and Paradise Papers), or by organisations such as ProPublica, which have not operated previously as news publishers and which rely on the support of the public and benefactors to fund their work.

The growth of media conglomerates in the U.S. since the 1980s has been accompanied by massive cuts in the budgets for investigative journalism. A 2002 study concluded "that investigative journalism has all but disappeared from the nation's commercial airwaves".[1] The empirical evidence for this is consistent with the conflicts of interest between the revenue sources for the media conglomerates and the mythology of an unbiased, dispassionate media: advertisers have reduced their spending with media that reported too many unfavorable details. The major media conglomerates have found ways to retain their audience without the risks of offending advertisers inherent in investigative journalism.

I like to play baseball. _______, I can't throw a ball very well.
Liono4ka [1.6K]

I like to play baseball. However, I can't throw a ball very well. The term ‘however’ is used because it is the only term allowed to make a negation of contrasts between the two ideas. The rest are signaling addition of ideas (in fact, for instance and besides).
