Answer:

C). The distance covered by Claire prior to 10 a.m. was 120 miles more than the distance covered by Elena prior to 10 a.m. After leaving Elena's house, Elena was on the road two hours more than Claire.

Explanation:

The third option correctly compares the distances covered by Claire and Elena. It aptly states that Claire covered a distance of 120 miles more than Elena before 10 a.m. as Claire begins her journey after 10 a.m. from 120 miles while Elena begins from 0(displayed in the paragraph). The next comparison is that Claire after 'leaving Elena's house', immediately begins her journey and covers 120 miles distance(total becomes 240) in the next two hours while Elena remains two hours on the road and begins her journey after that. Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.

Answer:

B.Gallaudet University should appoint a person who is deaf as its next president.

Explanation:

The author's thesis is best summarized in option B. The first evidence where the author claims that a deaf person should be the president of Gallaudet University is when he mentions that disabled people have the right to integration and involvement in society.

The second piece of evidence that supports the thesis is when the author says, "It [Gallaudet University] is held in the highest regard by deaf people throughout the United States and the world." Claiming that it should be an example for the nation and the world that the president of such a prestigious university has a disability. The last piece of evidence that supports his thesis is in the fifth paragraph "Gallaudet has a responsibility to set an example and thus to appoint a President who is not only highly qualified but who is also deaf."

Which element of modernist poetry is evident in this excerpt from "The Negro Speaks of Rivers" by Langston Hughes?
Doss [256]

Answer:

If your options are:

A. The poem uses variations of meter to affect rhyme.

B. The poem’s sentences flow across stanzas.

C. The poem’s stanzas have varying lengths.

D. The poem uses nontraditional syntax and rhyme scheme.

Then the answer is D.

Explanation:

The nontraditional syntax is best shown in the use of enjambment - interrupting the thought and syntactic structure in the middle and moving the rest to the next line. For example: "and older than the // flow of human blood (...)"

Here, the definite article "the" has been separated from the noun "flow", which means the phrase is visually broken in half.

  • A isn't true because this poem conveys its meaning through rhythm and not rhyme. There are virtually no rhymes here and the syntax (sentence structure) is disrupted, invoking the sound of a river flowing in irregular but consistent waves.
  • B isn't true because the sentences do flow across lines but not across stanzas.
  • The stanzas do have varying lengths. But even though this element was pretty rare prior to the 20th century, it is not exclusive to modernist poetry. That's why C isn't true either.
