The answer is C: a statement of the author’s purpose in writing the book, which may include suggestions for using the book.

A preface is an introduction to a book written by the author of the book. A preface usually includes the story of how the book came to being —this includes the author´s purpose in writing the book—, the ideas that cemented its development, and, finally, they usually include acknowledgements to the people or institutions that helped the project come to a conclusion. The preface is usually signed, and following the signature the date and place of writing is included.

<span>There are several reasons that had led Henrietta and her family in distrusting medical doctors and hospitals. They weren't treated properly and they weren't being given/told the truth. Throughout Henrietta's life after being diagnosed with cancer and through treatment doctors hadn't been telling her everything she should have had the right to know. Then even after Henrietta passed away for a period of time her family still didn't know about the HeLa cells. Henrietta and her family deserved to know all that was happening. Henrietta had a right to be given the choice about giving samples of her cells but she wasn't even told about it. This is what led Henrietta and her family into distrusting medical doctors and hospitals.</span>

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

A beautiful metaphor to explain the necessity of a solid but vivid structure and a logic order while writing a speech.

Explanation:

The idea of thihes metaphor, like all metaphors, is to visualize the topic - in this case writing a speech - in order to have a clearer idea on how to proceed.

Following this methaphor we could start with the head and introduce the topic in a few sentences of well selected words. When you move downwards to the middle and extremities you might go into some more details, using the arms and legs as a means of subdividing your topic.

Your feet, obviously, are important to keep you on the ground and not get lost in airy idealistic observations.

And remember, the human body is a perfect machine and very lively.
