Answer:

Reading it, however, with a perfect contempt for it, one discovers in it after all, a place for the genuine. (from "Poetry" by Marianne Moore) -----> the feeling that a person or an object is worthless

...One must make a distinction however: when dragged into prominence by half poets, the result is not poetry, nor till the poets among us can be "literalists of the imagination" - above insolence and triviality and can present for inspection, "imaginary gardens with real toads in them," shall we have it... (from Poetry" by Marianne Moore) ------> rude and disrespectful behavior

The jar was round upon the ground And tall and of a port in air. (from "Anecdote of the jar" by Wallace Stevens) ------> an opening for the passage of steam or liquid

How did the passing of the Chinese Exclusion Act impact Chinese immigrants in the 1880s?
Kruka [31]

The <em>Chinese Exclusion Act</em> was the first/only legislation suspending immigration for a particular nationality; prohibiting Chinese workers from entering the United States of America, and also prevented Chinese workers from returning to the country if they had left.

A lot of years of xenophobia and racial antipathy by white Americans preceded restrictions against other nationalities as well.

The law notably decreased the number of Chinese immigrants, and put them under a massive government scrutiny, it also separated families, and their business were closed down.

Which of the following types of edits to direct quotes is inappropriate? (5 points)
dlinn [17]

Answer:

The type of edit to direct quotes which is inappropriate is the following one:

Correcting errors in the quote.

Explanation:

If it is a direct quote, it is supposed to be as genuine as possible, that is, the essence of what was said by that particular person must be kept, and that includes not only what was said, but also how it was said- errors and all.

Eg: Let's say you want to quote Joker (played by Heath Ledger in "The Dark Knight") and you write:

As said by Joker: "Why <u>are you</u> so serious?"

In the example above, the essence of the original quote was lost, since the omission of verb and subject (Why so serious?) was what gave the classic quote its mysterious charm. So, it is best to keep it the way it actually is:

As said by Joker: "Why so serious?"

What is the appositive in this sentence?
Gre4nikov [31]
The answer would be C, "actors", because it describes the subject "we" more thoroughly, and that is actually the function of the appositive within a sentence. "Committee" is an indirect object, "we" is a subject, and "award" is a direct object.
