Answer:

A. Maya Angelou, one of the nation's preeminent literary figures, was a mother and a grandmother.

Explanation:

"Maya Angelou was a mother and grandmother. Maya Angelou was one of the nation's preeminent literary figures."

The best way to combine the information in the two sentences is option A.

This is because, unlike the other options, option A kept the meaning of the combined sentences without distorting or making it ambiguous.

Combining the two sentences show that Maya Angelou was prominent, as well as a mother and grandmother.

Which of the following claims does Eric Deggans develop in the text ?
Reika [66]

Assuming the text is "Learning How to Code-Switch: Humbling, but Necessary" (2013) and you had to choose between the following claims:

<em>A. Code-switching keeps people from expressing themselves by promoting one correct style of communication.</em>

<em>B. It is important to recognize that code-switching can help a person succeed and celebrate all aspects of their identity.</em>

<em>C. The United States consists of great cultural variety and no one should be discriminated against for speaking a certain way.</em>

<em>D. Many successful people have used code-switching, but it is unfair to expect minorities to have multiple communication styles.</em>

Deggans' thesis is that it is important to recognize that code-switching can help a person succeed and  celebrate all aspects of their identity (B).

<u>Code-switching</u> means alternating between languages or communication styles according to the context (cultural, professional, casual, etc.).

Deggans' testimony shows that being able to code-switch is what has helped him to integrate social groups which were different from the poor black neighborhood he came from, while maintaining his identity.

This answer is supported by such such quotes as:

  • "expertly navigating another culture wasn’t a  rejection of where I’d come from or a signal that I was any less authentically black;"
  • "it’s a reminder to be fully who you are at all times, while making sure you’re understood well enough to  be valued, respected and considered."

ELEN [110]

Answer: PLEASE MARK BRAINLIEST IF YOU FEEL THIS HELPED

The answer is A

Explanation:

A thesis statement is an idea or message of a piece of writing, usually in one sentence (but not always).

Write a elegy using grandma
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Here is an example and you can just change the words:

"I can’t ever know what flowers they gave her,

on that brittle coffin,

Because those flowers belonged in the garden she made,

(That after they let grow wild and seething)

And kept in her eyes was a kindness worth more than what fate gave her,

That broken body, untrustworthy spine

And I hope she looked through her garden  

One last time

Before they gave her to the roots"
