Answer: D. to inform readers about Blair's apology
Explanation:
The article excerpt provides information about Blair's apology in an unbiased way, meaning that it doesn´t intend to convince the reader of whether an apology was in order or not.
Option A is incorrect because the idea that British diplomats had allegedly been working non-stop is how Blair, and not the article, intends to persuade people not to blame them. Option B is incorrect because the article doesn´t ask or even hint for people to help British survivors. Option C is incorrect because the article is not meant to explain why Britons were deserted, but to inform how Blair considers they were not deserted at all.
The answer would be because it uses a direct quotation from the author of the source used.
Hello. You forgot to show the text and answer options. Both are set out below.
In 2002, astronomers using Hubble noted that the abundance of high-altitude clouds increased the planet's brightness from observations made in the late 1990s. Astronomers consider this brightness increase a sign of seasonal change. Hubble studies show that Neptune has a nearly constant brightness at low latitudes (near the equator). This supports the idea that the observed changes are seasonal in nature, because seasonal effects would be minimal near the equator and most evident at high latitudes.
A. to prove how scientists were able to confirm that Neptune has recurring weather
B. to suggest that Neptune is similar to Earth in terms of weather patterns
C. to demonstrate how scientists were able to conclude that Neptune has clouds like Earth
D. to introduce the idea that Neptune is similar to other planets in the galaxy
Answer:
A. to prove how scientists were able to confirm that Neptune has recurring weather
Explanation:
The text presents how scientists came to the conclusion that Neptune is a planet that has seasonal changes, similar to the earth, but with a different time interval between them. The text also shows that it is possible to observe these seasonal changes with the increase in the latitude at which the planet is observed, which reinforces the idea that, on this planet, the climate is recurrent, according to seasonality.
Answer:
Boo Radley was a good person but perceived as someone who must be isolated. He himself chose to isolate himself from society. The justice about whether to judge him as a murderer or a defender was overlooked by Atticus because of Raley's history. The instability of Boo's family highlights the theme of how even within homes, equal human rights can be ignored. Aunt Alexandra is traditional and prejudice at first but becomes open to the views of Atticus because of her love for the family.
