People who have ear buds in their ears simply cannot hear danger approaching. All they hear is the pretend soundtrack of their l

ives. People walking with ear buds in cannot hear a dog dashing up behind them nor can they hear the footsteps of a thief or murderer sneaking up behind him or her either. People who drive their cars with ear buds plugged in their ears (an act that is considered a traffic violation in many states) cannot hear a child screaming or a horn blowing in warning. Cell phones are known to be a factor in many car accidents. I won’t even mention how distracting ear buds plugged into a cell phone can be for a student in a classroom setting! We basically have handed a device to students that invites them to not pay attention to the real world around them.
How could the author strengthen his argument about how ear buds are dangerous when used in a car?

A) by telling us about what kind of car he drives
B) by talking about how many car accidents cell phones have caused
C) by making a list of the fatal accidents that occurred last year
D) by adding some statistics from accident reports that involved ear buds

What is a vignette? It's due today! Please help!
sdas [7]

Answer:

A vignette is a short and descriptive piece of writing that captures a brief period in time. Vignettes are more focused on vivid imagery and meaning rather than plot. Vignettes can be stand-alone, but they are more commonly part of a larger narrative, such as vignettes found in novels or collections of short stories.

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

“... there was this terrible anxiety that one of us might be rejected.”

Explanation:

Angelo Pellegrini was a writer who became famous for his works about the pleasures of food, wine, community. With the rest of his family, he immigrated in 1913 from Tuscany to McCleary, Washington. He wrote a lot about the Italian immigrant experience.

The given paragraph tells us that immigrants were very anxious about arriving in America because of the exams that awaited them and could get them sent back to Europe if they were rejected.

Read the passage.
Goshia [24]

Answer:

If you ever fall in love, expect it to hurt, and remember it.

Explanation:

"in the sweet pangs of it remember me" this part is tricky, "sweet pangs" basically meansthat the love thiu will experience will hurt, and thus they will be reminded of their past lover; "of it remember me". If thou shalt ever love = If you ever find new love, in the sweet pangs of it = it will be sweet, but tragic, remember me = you will be reminded of me in the end.
