It was a sunny afternoon<u> </u><em><u>in late October</u></em><em> </em>(prep=adv). Muriel and I had decided to check properties for sale in the countryside. We had always enjoyed toying with the idea of<em> </em><em><u>finding</u></em><u> </u><u>(np)</u> the perfect place<u> </u><u><em>to live </em></u><em>(</em>inf=adj). So we got into the car <u><em>to start as soon as possible</em></u><u> </u>(inf=adv). <u><em>After driving</em></u> (part) for hours we reached the spot, a stretch of fields forgotten <u><em>in the middle of nowhere. </em></u>(prep=adj). We had been told about this lonely place by my uncle Bob<em>, </em><u><em>the hermit</em></u><em> </em>(app).<u><em>To be </em></u><em>standing there in the absolute silence </em>(inf=n) of the place was unnerving. <em>We could hear the blades of grass rustling against each other and smell the strong stench of cows grazing nearby.</em> (compound)<em>Never had we been away from the city or felt the isolation of a rural area for this reason we rushed back to the car and drove back to our apartment as fast as we could.</em> (compound-complex).

tangare [24]

Answer:

The term<u> free speech</u> refers to all of the types of mechanisms and structures that permit  people to communicate their political wants with institutions of government.

Explanation:

Freedom of speech means the right to communicate and express ones opinion, idea, pass information freely without the oppression or restrictions of institutions of government. A person or a community can express their ideas and opinions without the fear of being marginalized. They are free to speak out or communicate freely without the fear of retaliation or legal sanctions from government institutions.

In the United States, people are free to criticize the government and question policies freely. The government also encourage the promotion of ideas and beliefs that other people may find controversial or offensive but everyone is entitled to their opinions and free speech. So what might be offensive to a person may not be to another.

Why are hoax succesful
monitta
I will help you! So, What makes a hoax successful? Well, this is the answer: <span>The recipe to a successful hoax requires several important elements, as exemplified by Barnum’s short story, </span><span>The Life of Joice Heth, the Nurse of George Washington. </span><span>Although the line between a believable hoax and an unreasonable tale can be ambiguous, Barnum toes this line and masters the art of deception by crafting his story to fascinate his readers while keeping it relatively realistic. His success can be attributed to the ignorance of his audience, among other convenient coincidences and artful techniques. Around 1835, when this story was published, many people weren’t as informed about medical and health concerns as they are today. Thus, the idea of a living 161-year-old woman might have seemed probable and even miraculous to many. Additionally, Barnum used reputable sources like the </span><span>New York Evening Star </span>and<span> Providence Daily Journal </span><span>to support his arguments, which only boosted his credibility. Mainly, Barnum used details regarding Joice Heth’s life and a real certification that she was George Washington’s slave to convince his audience that she really existed. Furthermore, he offered to let others see her in a circus, which appealed those who did and did not believe in the tale because the believers wanted to see the real deal and the non-believers wanted to see proof that it was all a hoax. In the end, Barnum effectively creates a successful hoax by teetering along the line between a conceivable story and ridiculous myth to craft a convincing argument that appealed to the general public. However, falling too far over this line with a tale too ridiculous could discredit the author and fatally reduce his/her reputation. 

Hope I helped! :) Can you mark me as brainliest please.

Match each multimedia type to the correct example.
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

1-A self-paced online class: <em>nonlinear multimedia</em>

2-A movie : <em>linear multimedia</em>

3-the World Wide Web: <em>hypermedia</em>

Explanation:

  1. In this multimedia type, the user interacts with the programmes on the web. Therefore, the material that comes out through this media is not sequencial ; it is not organised in chronological order. It comes out as the interaction between user / learner and a on line teacher takes place.
  2. This is a linear type of media since the content is organised sequentially. There is not interaction with the user. The user is has a passive role.
  3. The world wide web (WWW) is full of different types of texts and the user can access any of then at the click of a key. The users decides how to read the material that comes out on the web by making use of the different links that can be seen on screen.
