Have you heard about the new plastic bag tax? Wonderful, don't you think? It's an easy and straightforward campaign that you can

support without even thinking about it, isn't it?
In reality, of course, things are never that simple
The trouble with "no brainers" is that those who come up with them are often the ones doing the least thinking. This tax, for instance demonizes plastic because its creators don't understand the relationship between litter and the environment. The public, however, deserves not lies but the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so let's demolish these ludicrous bag tax claims here and now.

Answer:

Rhetorical Questions, Emotive Language, and Calls to action.

Explanation:

 "It's an easy and straightforward campaign that you can support without even thinking about it, isn't it?" Calls to action, because they are telling you to support it, without thinking no less.

"Have you heard about the new plastic bag tax?" Obviously, a rhetorical question, the next question could also be considered rhetorical.

"Wonderful, don't you think?" Is emotive language, because it showcases the writer's opinion, and almost making you agree with them from the context.

Hope this helps, have a nice day!

Answer:

Thousands of lives have been lost to erupting and volcanos. Many active volcanoes in history have also caused the destruction of human civilizations, and the earth. The eruption of the Indonesian volcano Krakatau in 1883 did extensive damage to the neighboring islands. The power of the volcano brought huge waves down onto the people, taking the lives of nearly 36,000. Other active volcanos in Indonesia have been recorded to cause severe damage to the climate as well as the life there. The ash and dust from the volcano effected the sunlight, destroying plant life and wrecking the natural balance of the environment. Other volcanic affects, such as mud flows, lava, and floods have also played a part in the fall of our ecosystems. In Indonesia, 1816 was named the year with no summer due to large volcanic eruptions. These eruptions were so severe, they had effect on other country’s, thousands of miles away.

Which is a sentence fragment?
DochEvi [55]
The answer is A. <span>Because I spent three hours on my homework.

This fragment provides a verb statement, but there is no subject preceding this statement. A sentence must have a subject-verb agreement to be considered a sentence. Without one or the other, it is a sentence fragment.
