Hands Across America was a public event on Sunday, May 25, 1986, in which approximately 6.5 million people held hands for fifteen minutes in an attempt to form a continuous human chain across the contiguous United States.

Many participants donated ten dollars to reserve their place in line. The proceeds were donated to local charities to fight hunger and homelessness and help those in poverty.

The event raised about $15 million for charities after operating costs.


Hope it helped :)

3° Rewrite these sentences in reported speech.
kramer

Answer:

1.“I can’t do this on my own!” he said. - He said he could not do it on his own.

2.“Would you like some tea?” she asked me. - She asked me if I would like some tea.

3.“I have travelled to many countries”, he told me. - He told me he had travelled to many countries.

4.“I’ll call a taxi when I finish writing this email”, he said. - He said he would call a taxi when he finished writing the email.

5.“Why didn’t you come to the party?” she asked him. - She asked him why he hadn’t come to the party.

6.“I’m going to see the new James Bond film”, he told me. - He told me he was going to see the new James Bond film.

Explanation:

When reporting sentences, we must pay attention to the following:

1. The subject of the reported sentence will change according to the context. For instance, in sentence 2 above, the subject is the same as the person reporting the sentence. However, in sentence 5, the subject is "he", the person who asked the question is "she", and the person reporting or the current speaker is "me".

2. We usually change the verb tense to the past of what was used in the original sentence. For instance, simple present to simple past, present perfect to past perfect, will to would, etc. Notice that in sentence 2, "would" did not need to change.

3. When we report a question, we must not maintain the interrogative structure. Therefore, we make the necessary changes, such as suppressing auxiliaries or simply moving them. Take a look at sentence 5.

Natalija [7]

Answer:

We can apply it to our own lives because we've all done mistakes and bad things in our lives but we can change our ways for the better like how instead of becoming a greaser Johnny believes that Ponyboy can become good in the world. It kinda shows how in life some people have done bad things but if they change their ways starting now they can still be part of the good in the world. I hope this helps :))

When a reader evaluates an author's style, the reader
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Judges it in a careful and thoughtful way.

Explanation:

An author's style is the way an author uses or employs his words to signify or present his work. This literary technique greatly adds meaning to the work, be it the choice of words, the figurative language used or the sentence structure, etc.

And when a reader is to evaluate any given work of an author, the evaluation will be done solely based on a careful judging and thoughtful way. He/ she will focus on the tiny details, the overall structure of the text along with the word choices, and small fragments of the whole text. This entails<u> judging the work/ text in a careful and thoughtful manner. </u>
