The hook is usually the sentence which occurs toward the beginning of the paragraph. It's main objective is to catch the readers attention and make them want to continue reading. (It's kind of like the thumbnail of a Youtube video, it catches the viewers attention.) Anyway, now that we have reviewed what a hook is, let's use the process of elimination to find our answer. A. cannot be the answer. It is a part of the beginning of the passage. It also is a fact, and is not written in a way that can attract a reader's attention and make them want to continue reading. The same goes for B. This is simply just not something that would attract a reader's attention. C is also not the answer. Once again, this statement fails to attract the reader's attention. So, this leaves us with the correct answer, D. Not only is this the first sentence in the paragraph, it also attracts the reader's attention and makes them want to read the rest of the passage.

Sources: I am a natural born American, so English is my first language. My mom is an English teacher, so I learned these types of things at a very young age.

What is the correct meaning of the work specialize? <br> Produce <br> Focus<br> Work<br> Decide
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Focus

Explanation:

To specialize in something means to bring the focus of your work and interest in that. <u>The person who is professionally specialized for some field of research is focusing their work, analysis, experiments, and career on one subject, trying to perfect it completely and to find the best possible results of it. </u><u>They are focusing to become the best they can in some skill or field, with the idea that they can become an expert. </u>

For example, someone might be a doctor, but they are specialized in dermatology. That means they have basic medical knowledge and academic background in all medical fields. Yet the focus of their work and what they are really good at are the skin problems and illnesses.
