The correct answer is C. Are these positive or negative words?

Explanation:

In texts including literary works such as novels, poems or short stories and non-literary works such as articles or reports, the tone of the author refers to the attitude, belief and even the position of the author towards the subject or topic he or she writes about which can be identified through the use of words that have a favorable or negative connotation and that suggest the way the author feels and thinks about a certain topic. This also implies in texts, this element can be identified by analyzing the type of words used by the author and the type of attitude these represent and therefore the question you can ask to understand the author's tone is "Are these positive or negative words?".

Screech! When a driver pushes on the brake pedal, it initiates a process that causes the vehicle to
zubka84 [21]

This question is incomplete, here´s the complete question.

Screech! When a driver pushes on the brake pedal, it initiates a process that causes the vehicle to  stop in motion. We literally trust braking systems with our lives every time we get into a vehicle or

cross at a busy intersection. How does this life-critical process work? It begins when the pedal is  pushed. At this moment brake fluid is reljased into the braking mechanisms. As the fluid collects,  this creates a leverage, which causes a friction to be applied. This friction will create a force that  will cause the wheels to stop and allow you to reach your destination safely. Beep! Beep!

What is the main/central idea of the passage?

How a braking system functions on an automobile

Trusting automotive braking systems

Brake fluid being released in the area where the breaking mechanisms are

There is no main/central idea

Answer: How a braking system functions on an automobile

Explanation:

This passage´s main idea is not meant to focus on brake fluids or the trustworthiness of braking systems.  

The main idea is how braking systems work as a whole. To do so, the passage describes the process that ensues since pushing on the brake pedal and until the vehicle stops, including the brake fluid being released, creating leverage and friction that make the wheels stop.

In “Captain Canot, or Twenty Years of an African Slaver,” how does the author develop the central idea that transporting enslave
Nata [24]

Answer:

by explaining how a captive’s condition was assessed.

Explanation:

The author developed the central idea that transporting enslaved captives was a trade just like any other in "Captain Canot" or "Twenty Years of an African Slaver" by explaining how a captive’s condition was assessed.

Most trades or all trades have profit as its main driving force, and profit cannot be made if the goods you sell is not good enough, so slave masters had to assess a captive's condition to find out if he was good enough to make a profit or not just like any other trade.
