Answer:

D. They may take the author's argument less seriously.

Explanation:

When exposing your own ideas, in oratory or textual form, you should be careful in how you address those who oppose you or are in disagreement of you since, gratuitously attacking your opponents —like calling them slobs— without offering arguments for the attack itself may only alienate those who are already in disagreement with your argument to begin with. An argument should stand on solid arguments and not on any form of attacks, personal or otherwise.

Hope this helps! :)

Which sentence has a verb tense shift error?
Marianna [84]

The answer to your question would be that the sentence that contains a verb tense shift error is the following one: Kristoff worked hard on his diet, but he could not resisted snacking. That is, the answer would be B.

A  verb tense shift refers to the change from one verb tense to another within a sentence or paragraph.  In this case, the verb "resisted" should be in the bare infinitive form as it is preceded by the modal "could". That modal is already related to the past tense used in the first part of the sentence.

Which statement best expresses a theme in the story “the bet”
raketka [301]

B: the desire to prove to others that you’re right can lead to extreme actions.

In the story, the lawyer and the banker get into an argument about whether or not life imprisonment would be more humane than capital punishment. The banker challenges the lawyer to a bet stating that the lawyer must remain in isolation for 15 years. To prove that he is right, the lawyer takes the bet. The desire to prove himself correct leads the lawyer to take the extreme action of giving up everything and living a life locked up in solitude.
