Answer:

A: Slippery slope

Explanation:

 The sentence represents the type of fallacy called Slippery slope, which <em>starts with an insignificant statement or event</em>  ("Our school needs a dress code now") that leads to <em>another more significant but not likely to happen </em>, or can even suggest a ridiculous outcome ("students willbe showing up in bathing suits and sandals."). The <em>connection between the ideas</em> is "and next..." ("Before you know it")

Is the house where Billy sees the sign 'Bed and Breakfast' enchanted? Does the landlady have magical powers or is it all his ima
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

The house is not enchanted nor does the landlady possess magical powers.

Explanation:

Roald Dahl's short story "The Landlady" revolves around the story of Billy Weaver and his encounter with a strange landlady in whose "Bed and Breakfast" he was staying. The story ends unresolved, leading the readers to imagine for themselves what really happened in the end.

Billy Weaver had arrived at Bath for the first time to start his job. As he doesn't know anyone, he decided to stay in a hotel for the time being. While looking for a reasonable place to stay, he came upon a small sign that says<em> "Bed and Breakfast"</em>. And he was hooked as if some strange spell was pulling him towards the place. Even the landlady seemed to have been expecting him, for she opened the door right after it rang.

There seems to be no indication that the place was enchanted. But at the same time, there are certain elements that seem to suggest to that. the narrator reveals <em>"his eye was caught and held in the most peculiar manner by the small notice that was there. BED AND BREAKFAST."</em> He continues, <em>"Each word was like a large black eye staring at him through the glass, holding him, compelling him, forcing him to stay where he was and not to walk away from that house." </em>But this doesn't prove that the place is enchanted.

Moreover, the landlady doesn't have any magical powers, rather she was a killer.

Someone help please. I need an introduction paragraph about different types of parents like the kind, strict, and the patient pa
topjm [15]

Answer:

I can give you some general ideas and guidelines, although I'm not sure what you're going for.

You can start an introduction paragraph using a surprising fact, a rhetorical question, a definition or an anecdote. These are some of many ways.

An anecdote is a short personal story. If you start with an anecdote, you can write about your parents or a friend's parents, whether they are strict, kind or patient and how.

Some very general first sentences:

- Different types parents different ways of raising children, each with their positive and negative sides. (This might work better as a last sentence)

- The role of a parent is to provide for their children and give them a place to belong at the beginning of their lives.

- The personality of a parent can influence how they act towards or raise their children.

Your first sentence should try introduce the topic in an attention-grabbing way.

Somewhere in your introduction, include the 3 sub-arguments that support your thesis.

Your last sentence should be your thesis statement which is your main argument. It might be that different types of parents raise different types of people, or that different parenting styles each have their pros and cons.

Everything depends on what you want to highlight and your diction/tone.

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mary was fleeing from the robber. She was running through the ally evading the man who was trying to exploit her. Mary kept looking over her sholder trying to gauge when he would catch her. Suddenly the ally opened onto the street. She saw a cop who seemed engrossed in his donut. She ran to his car and pounded on his window. He oppened his door and steped out. He saw the man run out of the ally. The man stoped and took in the scene. He knew that if he kept running it was a given that the cop would capture him. The man turned and ran back into the ally. Mary was safe.
