Summarize Chapter 7 in the book red scarf girl (absolutely no plagiarism!)
evablogger [386]
<span>At the end of the alley, Ji-li notices a propaganda wall. One night, a counterrevolutionary is caught trying to scrape a da-zi-bao off the propaganda wall. Six-Fingers (Red Guard in charge) and his friends get more meticulous after that. A poster announcing that Jia Hong-yu is coming to town. She's a famous Red Guard leader who will give them all a big report.At the meeting, Jia Hong-yu tells a story about meeting Chairman Mao: Everybody lined up for hours just to catch a glimpse of the guy, but it was worth it. Legend has it that seeing Mao makes you happy. When she's done with the story, there's not a dry eye in the house, and everyone chants, "Long live Chairman Mao!"Later, Ji-li watches from her window as Old Qian is forced to kneel on a sharp washboard for hours while the Red Guards empty out his house.Sure, Old Qian is an old grump, but he didn't do anything wrong—his biggest crime was not lending a Red Guard his bike.Ji-li feels really conflicted about Old Qian. He's a counterrevolutionary who deserves what's coming to him; on the other hand, though, he's just an old guy with a bike. Eventually, Old Qian faints from heatstroke and has to be carried back into the house.The next day, they find out An Yi's grandma jumped out the window and killed herself. Ji-li remembers her being harassed about her class status.<span>To make matters worse, suicide is a crime in revolutionary China, so An Yi's family isn't even allowed to have a proper funeral.</span></span>

What writing tips should you keep in mind when writing your recommendations? Check all that apply.
avanturin [10]

Answer:

B). Your recommendations should always be the result of prior logical analysis.

C). You can combine recommendations and conclusions.

D). You can omit conclusions and move straight to recommendations in short reports.

Explanation:

Recommendations are described as the suggestion or proposal offered at the end of a report after presenting a logical analysis of the issue in order to leave the readers with a takeaway command to be followed. As per the question, the writing tips that should be followed while writing recommendations would include options B, C, and D.

Option B as 't<u>he recommendation must always be the outcome of previous reasoned analysis</u>' that helps the audience to relate it and apply the recommendations proposed by the author. Option C because they('conclusion and recommendation') are often merged to offer a more coherent takeaway command for the readers. Option D, as short reports are too short to be given separate space for including both the 'conclusion and recommendation'. So, the conclusions are often omitted as the recommendations fill in the gap in an effective manner. Thus, <u>options B, C, and D</u> are correct.

Option A is incorrect, as the words 'perhaps' and 'maybe' degrades it's worth and option E because recommendations are the command that is instructed by the author to the audience to be followed by them.

Which two quotes BEST show the contrast in maturity between Helmuth and his brothers? "I'm going to float away, right this minut
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

"Helmuth is three." "Hans is eight." "Gerhard, who is seven."

Explanation:

This question is about "The Boy who dared"

The above selected phrase shows that there is a certain difference in Helmuth's age in relation to his brothers. This age difference shows the difference in maturity between them, as it is common that the younger the immature, since maturity is gained with experience and experience is gained with experience.

Helmuth is five years younger than Hans, who shows him that Hans is more mature. While Hans and Gerhard are only a year apart, it is likely that Hans is more mature, as he is older.
