Answer:

C.is not engaging or imaginative

Explanation:

Starting an essay with a definition isn't imaginative because it's been done too many times over and isn't engaging because,well when was the last time anyone has cracked open the dictionary and said,"Hey I found this really interesting definition today!" never. It's just not a very professional way to start an essay and many English teachers will agree.

Which sentence uses a colon correctly?
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

Jacinda went to Comic Con in hopes of meeting all her favorite heroes: Dr. Who, The Green Arrow, The Black Canary, and Supergirl.

Explanation:

A colon (:) is used to introduce or announce a phrase, quotation, or even list a noun or a number of elements. In other words, a colon is used to separate two independent clauses where the second explains the first.

In the given sentence, the correct usage of the colon is in sentence 4. This is because the colon is used to list the "favorite heroes" of Jacinda. And to list the four heroes, the colon introduces and lists them, with a period in between.

Thus, the correct answer is

<u><em>Jacinda went to Comic-Con in hopes of meeting all her favorite heroes: Dr. Who, The Green Arrow, The Black Canary, and Supergirl.</em></u>

Why does the author cite this information in the article?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Based on the given excerpt, the most logical answer would be C. "To respond to the counterclaim that veganism is bad for the environment."

The information cited clearly shows that the writer is against the consumption of meat. Choices A and D are more like personal attacks on those of the opposing side of the issue, which is inappropriate during an argumentative essay. Choice B is also invalid since the statistics provided don't mention anything related to an individual's personal health.
