Answer:

The answer is: B. He looked at me carefully and stated, "Don't worry because I'm here."

Explanation:

In British English it is frequent to use a capitalization in the first letter of the word after a colon, but only if it's a proper noun or an acronym as in American English but it also depends on one thing: if a sentence is being introduced, this is why the first option cannot be possible. The penultimate option doesn't have any mistakes either as Atlantic Ocean has to be capitalized in both words, for the word "ocean" belongs to that part of the proper name; the same with the last option: Central Park and New York are proper nouns and must be capitalized. So the second option shouldn't be capitalized, with the comma and then the quotation marks, for someone saying something, unless it was a proper noun.

Digiron [165]

Answer:

The purpose of persuasion in writing is to convince, motivate, or move readers toward a certain point of view, or opinion. The act of trying to persuade automatically implies more than one opinion on the subject can be argued.

The idea of an argument often conjures up images of two people yelling and screaming in anger. In writing, however, an argument is very different. An argument is a reasoned opinion supported and explained by evidence. To argue in writing is to advance knowledge and ideas in a positive way. Written arguments often fail when they employ ranting rather than reasoning.

Most people have strong views on controversial topics (ones that inspire extreme points of view or opinions) and are often very willing to share those strong views. However, imagine you are having a discussion with someone who is only willing to share a particular point of view, ignoring yours, which may be in opposition. The ideas presented by that person would be very narrow, almost as if the person has tunnel vision and is merely expressing a personal opinion. If that person does provide you with facts, they may often be skewed or not from a credible source. After the discussion, there is only a slight chance you would be convinced of the other person’s point of view. You may have new ideas you had not considered before or a new perspective, but you would probably not be thoroughly convinced because that person has not made any attempt to present a well-rounded, fact-based point of view. This is why it is essential for you to not only provide your reader with strong, substantiated evidenced, but also to ensure you present an argument that looks at the topic

• Pg. 113 - In lines 1-6, identify where Wollstonecraft uses antithesis.  What is her purpose in using antithesis in this passag
Trava [24]

In the first paragraph of <em>A vindication of the rights of women</em>, Wollstonecraft uses antithesis when she says "that either nature has made a great  difference between man and man, or that the civilization which has  hitherto taken place in the world has been very partial". She does this to state the main point of her argument: that men are women are born equally but it is civilization that creates the differences between them.

She immediately states that she has read various books about education and "observed the conduct of parents and the managements of schools", and it is "the neglected education" of women the source of their misery. This is, women would be as able as men if they received the same education.
