This question is about the article "The Flight from Conversation" by Sherry Turkle.

Answer:

Turkle uses the allusion to strengthen the argument she made in the paragraph.

Explanation:

In paragraph 9, Turkle shows why communication via devices has become so popular in our society. She says that this success is because the devices allow us to have communication as far as we can control. This is because this communication is neither too much nor too little, but it is enough within the standards that we ourselves have established. To emphasize this argument, she uses the allusion to Goldilocks effectively, which explains the tendency of people to like things that are not so simple, but are not so complicated.

3. Write a definition of the conditional tense in one sentenc
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

We use Conditional tenses to talk about hypothetic situations in the future, in the past, and to talk about events that would have happened.

a. If we were to be hit by an iceberg, we would die.

b If my cat were to eat a mouse, it would be a predator.

c If I were never to go in the sun, I would be extremely pale.

Explanation:

Conditional tenses communicate hypothetical situations in the past, theories about what might have happened, what happens concerning facts that are always true, and events with a low probability to occur in the future.

The sentences in this exercise are using conditionals to talk about situations in the present or future that probably will not happen.

We use:

the word if + the subject + were to,.... + subject + would + verb in the infinitive....

In formal writing, we can use the subjects he, she, and it with the auxiliary were instead of was and then the verb in the infinitive. For example, If he were to fail his test, he would be sad.

Which of the following sentences uses parallel structure?
Alchen [17]
D. parallel structure just means that all of your verbs in the comma series line up in regards to tenses, here. in choice D, it's "BE friendly," "INTRODUCE yourself," and "SMILE." these are all present tense verbs.

the rest of the choices don't match--"exercise" and "stretching" are two different verb forms in choice A, "to go to the library" is the odd one out in choice B, ane "to build" doesn't match with the "-ing" verbs in choice C.

12. Juillet, even though young and innocent, is quite practical and reasonable. Discuss and explain examples of this in Acts 1 a
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

In Shakespeare's <em>Romeo and Juliet</em>, the two lovers fall in love as very young. Juliet is only thirteen years old, while Romeo's age is not mentioned. We could, however, assume that Romeo is around her age.

Juliet is definitely more practical and mature, as she is aware that her whole life depends on her choices. At the time the play was written, women were in a far more difficult position, and were having a hard time to build a good reputation.

Juliet's practicality is obvious in<em> Act II, Scene II,</em> when Romeo wants to declare his love for her and swears by the moon. Juliet, however, protests by saying that the moon is always changing. She is hoping that, in their relationship, Romeo would not be as inconsistent as the moon. She states:

<em>Do not swear at all. </em>

<em>Or, if thou wilt, swear by thy gracious self</em>

<em>My only love sprung from my only hate </em>

<em>Too early seen unknown, and known too late! </em>

Juliet , therefore, advises Romeo not to swear by anything but himself.
