Answer:

Answer:The author uses playful, yet formal diction to show that slacking, or taking a break from busy activities, is important to success. The author encourages the reader to “embrace the joy of doing less” and uses a tone of admiration when describing the values of Montaigne, Thoreau, and Whitman.

By placing words such as retired and lazy in scare quotes, the author draws attention to the idea that what some consider lazy is actually a wise choice. The mood for the reader is peaceful, yet reflective. The author calls into question the common notion of slacking by using parallel structure for two contrasting ideas, stating, “Thoreau used time away from traditional work not to escape life but to embrace it.”

how are the two arguments made in the passages different hey the first passage claims that pets in class will help children with
sattari [20]

There are two main ideas for each passage, in the first one it mentions the positive outcomes of having a pet in class; it can help children with health problems and nervousness in students will decrease. In this sentences it supports the idea of a pet in class, saying the positive results of it and how it helps or it will help children.

In the second passage it mentions the negative outcomes of having a pet in class; they will make some health problems worst and the nervousness in students will increase around them. These two ideas are against the possibility of having a pet in class, mentioning how it will affect students instead of helping them.

What makes these two passages different is the opinion towards one main idea: pets in class. One passage supports it and one is against it.
