In an expository paragraph, you give information. You explain a subject, give directions, or show how something happens. In expository writing, linking words like first, second, then, and finally are usually used to help readers follow the ideas. Remember that all paragraphs should contain a topic sentence.
Answer:
D. But see below. It could also be B.
Explanation:
The question is much more complicated than you might first think. The first knotty problem has to do with the term in abatement. This term actually means the right to sue in any court in the United States. Taney is arguing that African Americans do not have that right.
Then comes the argument "Why not?" The reason he cannot sue is because he is not a citizen and that's where the rest of the argument comes in. I think strange as it may seem, Taney uses the fact that they are not citizens to deny them the rights of citizenship.
He states plainly enough that those writing the constitution never intended African Americans to be citizens. They were conquered by a more powerful race. The fact of the matter, what happened in Pennsylvania when the constitution was written was much, much more complicated. The North wanted them to be included in the Constitution, the South would never permit it. The writing of the constitution is much more complicated than the simple assertion of what the Founding Fathers intended.
This case is considered by many to be one of the darkest stains on the Supreme Court baring no other case. Come to think of it, I suppose B and D are both correct. I think you are intended to choose D, but my own opinion is that it is B.
The correct answer should be c. in order to make the reader have an emotional reaction
Denotation has literary use so it's not a, while propaganda and unpleasant things are not necessary aspects of a written piece. Connotation doesn't often bore and annoy the reader and is considered to be rather enjoyable.
Compound I believe. A compound sentence is when two pieces of it could stand alone but are connected with a comma, semi colon, etc. hope this helps.
