Choose the most effective way to revise the following sentence for positive emphasis: Students cannot park in Lot C until August
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Students will be able to park in Lot C from August 26 on.

Explanation:

Giving positive emphasis to a sentence means writing or saying it in a way that focuses on what people can do instead of what they cannot. To do so, it is important to avoid negative words and connotations. When that is not possible, one must try to keep the negative compact, presenting it in the middle of the sentence.

The sentence "Students cannot park in Lot C until August 25" has a negative emphasis, since it states a prohibition, a limitation. We could revise for positive emphasis in the following manner:

- Students will be able to park in Lot C from August 26 on.

Why do some people think Shakespeare may have not written Macbeth?
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

The real Shakespeare, the one who wrote the plays, was brilliant philosopher Francis Bacon. Or it was romantic and tragic Edward de Vere, Earl of Oxford. Or it was secretly Queen Elizabeth. Or Shakespeare’s rival playwright, Christopher Marlowe. (Christopher Marlowe may also have been a spy, and some conspiracy theorists will tell you that he faked his death. The man got around.)Or it was a whole group of people! Maybe it was all of them? Even the Supreme Court’s gotten in on the argument. In 1987, Justices John Paul Stevens, William Brennan, and Harry Blackmun held a mock trial on the authorship question. Brennan found in favor of the Stratford man, but Stevens and Blackmun weren’t so sure.
