A. Puns. For example, calling a pun "punny" would be a pun, as it is a play on the words "pun" and "funny".

The correct answer is A. PUN. A pun is a form of “word play” or a “play on words,” which suggest two or more meanings by using of words with multiple meanings, or words that sound similar. Though a pun is most often used for humor, it is also a standard literary device; the purpose of puns is to change the meaning of the sentence for humorous or rhetorical effect. No writer is better known for the use of puns than William Shakespeare, who is said to have used more than 3000 puns in his plays.  For example, the opening lines of Richard III read “Now is the winter of our discontent made glorious summer by this sun of York”. In this case, the sun of York is not precisely a comment of York’s weather but rather on Richard, son of the House of York.

Which of the following best describes the racial divisions in the North after suburbanization in the 1950's?
lesya [120]

The correct answer is "A".

The "Great Migration" was the massive relocation of African Americans to territories up North, Midwest, and West which occurred from 1916 to 1970. During this period, African Americans who relocated into urban areas in the north were subject to constant violent acts from the White community, as there was still an inherent sentiment of segregation among the citizens of the country. This prompted African Americans to establish in suburbs in the outskirts of the urban areas during the 1950s.

Why do some people believe the Electoral<br> College negatively impacts elections?
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

For one it could be seen as undemocratic,  For example if a candidate loses the popular vote, the electoral college could still let that candidate in even if they lose the popular election. It also has a winner-takes-all approach which cancels the votes of the losing candidates in each state.

OLga [1]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you did not mention the name of the text. Without the name of the text, we do not know what is included there.

However, trying to help you, we can comment on the following.

There is a text titled "The Voting Rights Act of 1965." If that is the case, we can say the following.

The author of this text refers to that legislation passed in the mid-sixties and says that there are laws that were passed to limit American minorities to exert their vote in elections. Of course, the author not only refers to African Americans, but to Hispanic people or Asian people.

In the case of African Americans, the author includes a series of legislation that had been passed in different states to limit their civil rights despite federal legislation.
