Answer:

<h2>The answer is "4. Tan's mother does not speak standard English, but she is able to convey the ideas behind her words."</h2>

Explanation:

Amy Tan described her mother's use of the English language as "Impeccable broken English" because <em><u>it pertains to a somewhat direct translation of what she wants to say in their native language</u></em>.

  • Tan, in her essay, started with the terms 'broken' and 'limited,' but she thought that it diminished the value or belittled the person using the language.
  • Because English is not her first language, she is unable to speak standard English fluently. However, even if Tan's mother was using a broken English language, she managed to convey the message she wanted.
  • People around her can understand what she's trying to say. And this is what matters the most.

nignag [31]

Kennedy claims in this excerpt is that basically nothing is impossible. The things that are considered extremely difficult to reach are possible if you are willing to do them. The capability or the limits of a person are only established by him or herself.

HELP! (Needs to be full paragraphs)

There are many advocates in favor of and many against the idea of paying athletes who play sports for their college or university. We’ve got a breakdown of the pros and cons. The pros list the arguments for why college athletes should be paid and the cons list the arguments for why college athletes should not be paid. Athletic scholarships are their compensation and a fair one at that. Essentially they receive a free education and in return they represent the school in a certain sport. College athletes don’t have to worry about student loans, paying for textbooks, the cost of on-campus living, and meal plans.According to Institute For College Access & Success, in the state of Pennsylvania 71 percent of students leave a public four-year institution or private non-profit four-year institution in debt. The average debt is $32,528. That is an enormous burden for kids who may, or may not have a job awaiting them upon graduation.
 

No, people who download music/movies illegally should not be punished. It’s completely free for someone to go on YouTube and watch a music video, so why can’t they have it on their computer for free too? Well the real answer is, there isn’t one. Anyone can search the web to watch/listen to pretty much any movie or song for free. Being able to watch it for free, but not download it for free seems a little ridiculous doesn’t it. Also if you think about it, downloading it off the Internet is almost exactly like recording a TV show or movie from your cable box.  <span>This act should definitely be illegal, and is already frowned upon. It’s taking someone else’s work and selling it for profit. But as many people have said, “Why should I get it here for money, when I can get it here for free?” If you saw a TV for $499 and saw the exact same TV for free (not a scam).</span>
