Why do you think the author of this article chose to use Standard English rather than dialect?
Neko [114]

Answer: C)

Explanation:

I would say that the correct answer is C). Since I cannot find the article that is missing in your question I would try to help you with my response.

Standard English is the most understandable way of writing and if the author is describing some important and serous information, they must be written with Standard English. Dialect is more hard for understanding.

2. Read the following excerpt from Edgar Allen Poe's "The Raven":
madreJ [45]

The use of rhyme and repetition in "The Raven", by Edgar Allan Poe, are meant to affect the reader in the following way:

It causes the reader to sense how desperate and devastated the speaker is.

Since the raven is a symbol of death and loneliness, as well as of a somber state of mind, the speaker wants it to leave his house. The presence of the animal affects the speaker in an unbearable way, since it reminds him of the loss of his significant other.

The rhymes make it for a feeling of frantic desperation, whereas the repetition, particularly "nothing more" and "nevermore", shows how strongly mourning affects the speaker, how devastated he is.

We can see how badly the speaker wants the bird to leave in the following passage:

"Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my

door!"

Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore."

Which type of evidence is an example of testimony
Debora [2.8K]

Testimonial evidence is a statement made under oath. An example would be a witness pointing to someone in the courtroom and saying, “That's the guy I saw robbing the grocery store.” This is also called direct evidence or prima facie evidence. Physical evidence can be any object or material relevant in a crime.
