Answer:

The reason Jonas took the apple from the recreation area was because he wished to examine it further to understand why it changed in mid-air.

Explanation:

In chapter 3, Jonas recalls a time when he was publicly chastised for taking food from the recreation area. Although the speaker did not state Jonas's name, he realized that the announcement was specifically directed toward him. The reason Jonas removed the apple from the recreation area in the first place was because it seemed to change while he was throwing it to Asher. Jonas had randomly selected an apple from the snack basket and threw it at Asher. In the middle of playing catch, Jonas noticed that the apple was changing in mid-air. Jonas was not aware of it at the moment, but he has the Capacity to See Beyond, which essentially means that he has the ability to see in color. Similar to the Giver, who can hear music and melodies, Jonas can see in color, which is considered a unique ability in his highly structured community.

Analyze how the author uses the rhetorical devices of parallelism and diction to
beks73 [17]

The author has used rhetorical devices like parallelism to emphasize the miserable and hopeless condition of the migrants who were despised and hated but had no option but to swarm the town to fight hunger and survive.

<u>Explanation :</u>

The chapter talks about the agrarians who were ruined by industrialization. Industries and technology pushed them on the roads. They moved in search of food and to give their families a meal to survive.  

Parallelism has been employed at places to underline the misery, the dejection and distress.

For instance, in one of the paragraphs, just to stress on the simplicity of the agrarian folks before they were brought near to doom: ‘a simple agrarian folk who had not changed …….. who had not farmed. They had not grown up….’  

This repetition of phrases and clauses is parallelism.  The chapter is replete with such examples.  It lends it unity and realism and appeals to emotions.

Read the excerpt from act iii, scene ii of romeo and juliet. juliet: and bring in cloudy night immediately. spread thy close cur
Zina [86]
cloudy night, unseen, and spread thy close curtain are all both phrases that support the motif of darkness. 

A cloudy night means that all of the stars should be covered. When this occurs, it means that the sky is going to be even darker now considering the fact that all sources of light are going to now be covered. Being unseen also supports the idea that it may be too dark out for anybody to see Romeo come to meet up with her, additionally supporting the fact that there was a dark enough setting that Romeo was able to navigate easily in without worry of guards catching sight of him. Spreading thy close curtain directly relates to the darkness and how Juliet is waiting for curtains to come and cover up the sky.

An additional bonus phrase could also potentially be runaway's eyes may wink. Runaway is Juliet's term for the night, although she also considers the stars to be eyes and for them to be blinking. 

I cannot be 100% with this, but I have explained each potential answer. If I am wrong, I would love it if someone could correct me. Thank you.

Answer:

B.  A faster pace would have been more appropriate for the speech’s content and audience.

Explanation:

Mateo is speaking to the audience and refers to the audience as US indicating he is talking to fellow students about the injustice of the strict snow days.

Children are more likely to get bored listening to a talker with a professional tone or if the speaker is being more casual then the audience would think the speech is not important allowing the audience to miss the speech before it has even begun.

But by making the speech faster you are allowing the audience to begin to believe on their own about the injustice and it begins to work up their blood pressure.

Hitler was very good at getting the people to believe in what he wished because he made his speeches short and fast.
