Body Paragraph 1

Topic Sentence::Brittany Taylor uses figurative language such as metaphors and other figurative language to tell the audience why DACA shouldn’t be closed.

Example from text to support topic sentence:“These protesters couldn’t have known what Areliss felt as they shouted and waved pamphlets in our faces like tattered flags. But, I know their words were bullets to Areliss’s heart. I wanted to fire back at the protesters: Where are your ancestors from?”

Explanation of how the example serves purpose:She uses metaphors to show that she felt very offended by what the people were saying when she says “But, I know their words were bullets to Areliss’s heart.”  

Example from text to support topic sentence: “The term “DREAMers” refers to an act that would have protected these immigrant children if they attended college or served in the military. The DREAM Act did not pass, but its name has remained. DACA recipients have a dream: they dream that their lifelong contribution to the United States will one day be recognized, and they will be permitted to stay in the country they have always called home”

Explanation of how the example serves purpose:She tries to persuade the audience to think shouldn’t shut down when she says “DACA recipients have a dream: they dream that their lifelong contribution to the United States will one day be recognized, and they will be permitted to stay in the country they have always called home”.

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

The author means that Men who waste their opportunities, then grow mopey

Explanation:

The question is not complete since it does not provide the necessary information to answer it. Here is the information:

A) Men who wish for fame, but end up in infamy.

B) Men who strive for success, then get distracted.

C) Men who waste their opportunities, then grow mopey

D) Men who take advantage of opportunities, then grow content

This excerpt describes men who have had chances in life as well and plenty of abilities to do great with their days, but as the moments are not fully seized, later life as years pass by, they become sad as they look at the past and notice all the precious time that they let go and that will never come back, as well as the few good moments that will remain as a constant of the lost plenty of youth.

How does Machiavelli work.....
aalyn [17]

The answer, I think, has to do with the fact that this book is what we call a classic. Its enduring value in my view lies not so much in its political theories as in the way it discloses or articulates a particular way of looking at the world. The Prince shows us what the world looks like when viewed from a strictly demoralized perspective. I think that’s what the fascination and also the scandal is all about.

Because the play Romeo and Juliet takes place hundreds of years in the past, there are some differences in our marriage values t
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

In my opinion, in the old days, everyone was jolly and grateful for who they got to marry. Money wasn't an influential cause, and although people were different colors, and had different personal attributes or aspects, they would get married for who they were deep inside. When Romeo and Juliet took place, they both were in separated families, and mainly people married their own color. However, money is greatly involved in our current era. People don't look for personal aspects or the way they are inside, many people are what we call "gold diggers". Only getting married for that cash, which is pretty sad these days. Another difference, in my opinion, is that people stayed married longer in the old days, not because of aging, but because of who they were inside, and the true gentleman inside of them. Today, many people get married just for the benefit of finance, and usually leave after cash is earned, which is overall sad.
