Answer: Editorial article

Explanation: The author's main point is that president Trump should select a scientist to run the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, someone who is qualified and will not modify their stance when pressured by office.

The author uses logical argumentation as he/she gives arguments such as the fact that the NOAA is an important referent on global warming, and that president Trump dismisses this issue although facts show that it is a real event. Rhetoric is also used to refer to discredit Trump's persona.

The author's position is reasonable given the importance of weather forecasting to prevent tragedies and loss of lives, as well as to take action to reduce climate change. The NOAA should be run by someone equally capable and impartial who can put their service above their personal political interests.

What overall message do you think Bradford means to communicate in Of Plymouth Plantation? Write an essay to state what you thin
BARSIC [14]

Answer and Explanation:

"Of Plymouth Plantation" is composed by Bradford's account of the difficult times that the first English colonists suffered to arrive in North America.

Bradford wrote "Of Plymouth Plantation" not just as a diary, but an account of how it is possible to overcome our greatest difficulties, even when they seem impossible to overcome and even though it seems that we will lose our life in an attempt to overcome difficulties.

We can see that, because "Of Plymouth Plantation" presents a narrative of overcoming. Bradford presents the inhospitable environment, the unfavorable climate, the limited food and the constant dangers that the pilgrims went through, he reports the deaths and the constant threats they suffered, but also shows how they managed to overcome all this with effort, dedication, faith and trust.

Therefore, we can say that Bradford's narrative is significant, as it shows how the human being, in general, is capable of overcoming adversity and is capable of being greater than all of them. This is related to current life, as we live in times of uncertainty and danger, but we will eventually overcome everything.

Which pronoun best completes the sentence?
jok3333 [9.3K]
The correct answer is B. 'we; subject'. If it helps, try rephrasing the question as a statement.

Jenny and ___ are walking to the soccer fields this afternoon.

The missing word has to be a subject and not a predicate nominative, since 'walking' is an action verb (predicate nominatives are only present in sentences with a linking verb). Therefore, the answer is either A or B. Now, let's substitute both 'us' and 'we' into the sentence and see which one works better.

Jenny and us are walking to the soccer fields this afternoon.

Jenny and we are walking to the soccer fields this afternoon.

If it helps, try using a singular pronoun instead of a plural pronoun, since both sentences sound a bit strange.

Jenny and me are walking to the soccer fields this afternoon.

Jenny and I are walking to the soccer fields this afternoon.

Now it's pretty obvious which one is correct. I think we've all had an English teacher or a Grammar Nazi correct us when we say 'Me and my friend'. 'Me' cannot be correct here, therefore the plural form of 'me', 'us', cannot be correct either.

Therefore, the answer is B. 'we; subject'.

Hope this helps!
