Answer:

C.

Explanation:

Negative Reinforcement was the term used by B. F. Skinner in his theory named Operant Conditioning. Operant Conditioning is a method of learning that includes rewards or punishment.

In Operant Conditioning, negative reinforcement is defined as a behavior trying to escape from negative outcomes or aversive stimuli. Aversive stimuli is the term used for the stimulus that a person usually wants to avoid or escape. <u>In simple terms, a negative reinforcement can be defined as a behavior that is unpleasant is tend to be removed to create a favorable outcome</u>.

<u>In the given case, negative reinforcement is taking place, because Mark is trying to remove the behavior of getting up late to avoid being yelled by his mother as he dislikes it. So, Mark is trying to remove an unpleasant behavior to create a favorable outcome, that is that his mother may stop yelling at him</u>.

Thus, the correct option is C.

What thesis statement could be concluded from Frederick Douglass's "My Bondage and My Freedom"? I am going to be writing a thesi
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

In my opinion the statement could be the one what we have learned from his autobiography.

He called both the owner and slave a victim of the system. We all are bound to the systems, to the expectation of the others. Even after all those years we still don't have such kind of freedom in which we are free to do anything whatever we want to do because we can not use our free will due to the universal pressure, sometime religious pressure, society pressure or sometimes our own fear what will people say.

By his life we can learn nothing is impossible if we have determination to achieve it, if we got the idea, willingness, dream to have it and then the struggle to have it.

He was beaten by white people but nothing can stop him to achieve his freedom. Everything has a price to pay. But unless you don't feel anything wrong from your heart or head nothing can help you to stop it. but first one needs to explore the truth within himself, around himself.

So I think the only best statements can conclude thesis better is;

without struggle, there can be no progress

I prayed for my freedom for twenty years, but received no answer until I prayed with my legs.

I don't know I was a slave until I found out I couldn't do things that I wanted.

Explanation:

It's very hard to select one statement to conclude it but these statements overall cover the main theme of the autobiography.

Frederick Douglass emphasis not on the freedom but the struggles and bearings of the slave what they face for freedom.

Read the excerpt below. What figurative language is Belle using here to describe what has happened between them?
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Metaphor & personification

Explanation:

When he asks Belle, “what idol had displaced you?” She answers, “a golden one” which is a metaphor. If she had said, one as gold as a shiny ring, that would have been a simile. She personifies an idol in the third sentence, by stating an idol has displaced her. Idols can be inanimate or animate, but in this case the idol is inanimate, and she personifies it. Hope this helps.
