Answer:

Bittman’s idea is not new, of course; many experts and policy groups have long recommended soda taxes, for example, or government-issued vouchers for farmers’ market produce, and some municipalities in the U.S. (and some countries outside the U.S.) have toyed with, or in fact implemented, such taxes or similar concepts. But Bittman’s piece is notable for making a persuasive argument for the use of taxes and subsidies to reshape our diet, systematically laying out the benefits and dispatching the arguments of potential detractors, in a widely-read newspaper.

exis [7]

Answer: The main purpose of the speech was to get support from the citizens of the U.S. for the space program and their new goals.

In the following citation from the speech, President Kennedy speaks about the progress of the country and how the past achievements led to this new complex exploration of the human race that will mark history forever.

"If this capsule history of our progress teaches us anything, it is that man, in his quest for knowledge and progress, is determined and cannot be deterred. The exploration of space will go ahead, whether we join in it or not, and it is one of the great adventures of all time, and no nation which expects to be the leader of other nations can expect to stay behind in the race for space."

The first-person quotations in this excerpt help explain Audrey's experience in jail. what happened to Audrey's parents. why Jam

bazaltina [42]

This question is missing the excerpt. I was able to find it online. It is the following:

Read the excerpt from "We've Got a Job" by Cynthia Levinson.

Audrey and James didn't go to the mass meeting either. They were in jail.

Audrey was taken to a large dayroom. She didn't know anyone, and everyone was older. Dinner was unappetizing. "They fave us grits . . ." she said. "They were horrible - all soupy, no salt." That night, she slept on a bunk bed "on one mattress, with one sheet," and no covers.

Answer:

The first-person quotations in the excerpt help explain Audrey's experience in jail (first option).

Explanation:

Cynthia Levinson is an educator and author of mostly non-fictional books. "We've Got a Job" is a book she wrote about the Children's March that took place in Birmingham, Alabama, in 1963. Between 3,000 and 4,000 children participated in the march, protesting against segregation.

<u>Audrey was one of them. As we can see in the passage, the author chose to alternate her own words with Audrey's when telling readers about Audrey's experience in jail. That makes the passage more personal, since we are hearing, so to speak, from Audrey herself what happened while she was there.</u>
