Answer: The sentence that uses Standard English is "The Joneses brought the baby home".

Explanation: Standard English is the widely accepted form of the English language, that is to say that it is the dialect considered to be correct and the only one that must be used in formal contexts. The second sentence, "The Joneses brought the baby home",<u> is the one that uses Standard English because it includes the standard form of the past tense conjugation of the verb "bring" ("brought").</u> On the other hand, "The Joneses brung the baby home" contains the non-standard and dialectical form of the past tense of "bring" ("brung").<u> "Brung" is part of the popular slang and, unlike "brought", it is used in informal contexts. </u>

Discuss why your communicative strategies change as there are adjustments in every speech context,speech style and speech act?
rusak2 [61]

For some, Open Mic Night at the local bar might conjure up some pretty bad memories - random people yacking about this or that, one minute a guy tells you about the novel ways to trim your hedges into the likes of farm animals, while another talks about his belief that aliens live amongst us. You and your buddies roll your eyes and dash for the door. And this is for good reason! Neither speaker took the time to consider some very important things.

You see, when a speechwriter sets out to draft a winning speech, he not only considers the topic - he thinks about the speaker, audience and purpose of the speech. Why, you ask? He does this mostly to keep the attention and interest of his audience. Let's take a closer look at this.

Doss [256]

Answer:

Unity under one government

Explanation:

Having a high opinion can mean that you see the value of something or somebody. <em>Having sufficient power</em> and <em>their own specific interests </em>are restricted to the 1st person singular or plural in a <em>selfish </em>manner. <em>The intelligence of other countries</em> is not something that crosses your mind when you think of your country. <em>The unity under one government </em>is what the history of the United States of America (the independence) has taught American people to appreciate, nourish and value.
