Answer:

Impinge - strike .

Garrulous - loquacious.

Pious - religious.

11111nata11111 [884]

The right answer is:

  • The recording misses opportunities to use sound effects instead of stage directions: Stage instructions are not important in an audio recording, since the movement of the actors will not be seen. For this, recording should display sound effects in place of the instructions to improve the listener's understanding.
  • The recording follows the original text instead of reinterpreting it: The recording follows the text to the letter, to let the quality of writing is followed with quality.

What does "Civil Disobedience" suggest about the public opinion of tax evasion in Thoreau’s time? Tax evasion was only a moderat
ExtremeBDS [4]
<span>The correct answer is the third option: if allowed to continue, tax evasion was a serious offense. Tax evasion means not paying your taxes, which, during Thoreau's time, resulted in going to jail. This punishment reflects the idea that tax evasion is a serious offense and that offenders should be treated as criminals. Despite these consequences, Thoreau used tax evasion as a form of civil disobedience. For example, he refused to pay his poll tax during the Mexican War as a way to protest the slavery that was still occurring in the United States. Due to his tax evasion, he went to jail until the poll tax was paid.</span>
