When Obama says " Last year, we relied less on foreign oil, than in any of the past sixteen years" he is using persuasion. He is persuading the listener by appealing to their sense of being independent from having to get oil from some of the foreign countries that we were at war with. When he states "A strategy that's cleaner" he is appeasing the people who are environmentalists and who want to do what they can for the planet. He also manages to intrigue the common working man by stating that the country will be "full of new jobs."

Match the checklist question with the step of the writing process it belongs to:
yarga [219]
The correct matches  of the questions to the step in writing would be as follows:

A. What voice am I writing in?
This question would most likely be drafting. It is the step where the author would begin to develop the text, organizing the thoughts he wants to have.

B. Are my sentence boundaries identified correctly (no fragments or run-ons)?
This would be the editing step where you proofread the whole text looking at errors especially structural errors.

C. Have I kept voice and tense the same throughout?
This would represent the revising step where you make a run through to each sentence and see whether you are being consistent with the use of words.

D. What is my purpose?
This would be the planning step. The very first step in writing would planning on what to write and what you would like to convey to the readers.

E. What is my evidence (and where will I get it)?
This would be the pre-writing stage where you collect your sources for the subject you want to write.

Umnica [9.8K]

This question is about "The Curious incident of the dog in the nighttime."

Answer:

He presents himself that way because he is autistic.

Explanation:

Christopher is bullish and for that reason, we can conclude that his mind does not work like the mind of people who do not have this mental disorder. Like some bulls, Christopher has a very good memory and usually recalls very detailed things from elements to which he has a certain fascination. This fascination makes him present himself along with the things that are important to him, such as knowing the names of all countries and their capitals, as well as knowing all prime numbers up to 7.057.
