Answer:

A) The article quotes experts and statistics to support the claim is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Since Preston is writing an essay, there are many things to consider. One of the most important ones is the tone, so irony and humor might not be the best for this type of writing or for his goal (consumerism.) Even though it could be helpful to give an example, if the essay told the story of one family, this could be understood as one particular case and not the general situation, meaning it would not be enough to prove Preston's point. A question and answer format would not be the most proper for the essay, since it could limit Preston's ideas to what is asked in the question. A is correct because the writer wants to show a specific point and experts quotes and statistics are usually more specialized than the other options, or they are based on other previous studies and not on particular situations, helping Preston to give a more general idea of consumerism and its effects.

The writer use structure and language to persuade her readers and support her feelings about immigration through the thesis as she makes an analogy to the famous "I Have a Dream" speech by Dr. Martin Luther King.

<h3>What is a thesis statement?</h3>

A thesis statement appears at the conclusion of the introductory paragraph of a paper and it offers a concise summary of the point or claim of the essay, research paper, etc.

We can see this in how the letter is laid out, especially toward the end when the author references that they too, have a dream. We see throughout the letter strong uses of metaphors. She is using her personal experiences to persuade the audience of supporting the DACA program.

She starts by giving examples to support how there are good people who are immigrants in America and that there are people who spew hatred. The author continues to use the letter to provide evidence supporting that deportation is bad.

The correct option would be "To build a fire" is set in the wilderness in extreme temperatures, while "Gumption" is set inside a house in a town in winter.

For example, in "To build a fire" it states "colder than fifty below" which does suggest extreme temperatures.

In "Gumpton" it states "a soul working in our house" which suggests it is set in a house.

Part 1: An Introduction to Elizabethan England Gaining information from a text happens implicitly and explicitly. __________ is
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Explicit information; Implicit information.

Explanation:

An information source can be defined as a system or medium through which informations, knowledge and ideas may be gotten and used by an individual. It can either be a primary or secondary source of information.

The source options for informations are television, radio, web, newspapers, journals, magazines etc.

In English literature, an explicit information can be defined as any fact and details that are clearly written out by an author, without leaving anything implied.

This ultimately implies that, an explicit information doesn't require the use of context clue by the reader because the fact and details about the topic or subject matter are written clearly by the author.

Hence, when an information is directly stated by the author or writer, it is referred to as an explicit information.

On the other hand, an implicit information requires the reader to combine details provided by authors and use context clues from the text with background knowledge to make an inference.

In English language, an inference can be defined as an act or process which typically involves a person deducing the meaning or message from something through induction.
