Answer:

While lying on the dirt the author realized that the lovely blue sky is actually not blue and she could feel the hard and emphatic presence of the earth coming upon her.

Explanation:

In her essay titled "Against Nature", Joyce Carol Oates writes about why she thinks that nature should not be a topic of writing. She begins with reciting her experience when she had a tachycardia attack while she was jogging. She recalled that she was lying on the ground, she lies limp in the dirt and tried to focus on nature to remain calm at that time.

As she was lying down on the ground she could feel the earth's presence hard and emphatic upon herself. She could feel that the earth was shifting forward. And she noticed that the sky, the lovely blue sky, which was rolling away forever in infinity, was not blue.

In 150 words, write a paragraph in which you use a pathos-based argument to explain why a city-wide curfew for teenagers should
Inessa [10]
City-wide curfew should not be instituted because this limits teenagers' activity and involvement in the outside world at night. Many teenagers would be upset with this curfew because they would not be allowed to ride bikes outside or hang out with their friends without getting into trouble. A curfew like this one would encourage teenagers to stay indoors on their phones instead of outside enjoying the night air. Teenagers have to stay in school most of the day from early morning hours to the early afternoon; many would be sad that they must miss out on outdoor time after taking their time to do their homework at home, study, and shower, because of a curfew. This might encourage sad students to give up these things they need, like studying or showering, just to be outside while they can. It could also encourage rebellious behavior in teenagers by making them want to be outside more because they know they can't be because of the curfew.
