Mark is writing to the council to contest a parking fine. Select the sentences that contain language inappropriate for a formal

text.
Dear Sir or Madam,

I’m not happy at all about receiving a fine for parking at the local supermarket. I am certain I was not there longer than 45 minutes and should not, therefore, be fined. But here I am, holding a letter from you saying that, somehow, I was in fact there for nearly an hour! As if! If you can prove it, I’ll pay it – and not a penny from me until you do!

Regards,

Grant

Answer:

I’m not happy at all

I’ll pay it

Explanation:

I’m not happy at all

I’ll pay it

What makes both of them wrong is the fact that they were both abbreviated. In a formal letter, we are supposed to keep everything whatsoever we write formal, and as such, "I'm", in place of "I am" and "I'll" in place of "I will" is quite wrong for a formal letter, since the former is an informal way of writing the later.

Changing both context however, to "I am not happy at all", and "I will pay it" makes it fit into the requirements for a formal letter.

Alona [7]

Answer:

Swift's purpose is to shock his readers with his very "immodest"

proposal. In Ireland at this time, there is extreme poverty,

overpopulation, and an unfair balance of trade with Great Britain.

He suggests that the Irish should sell their children as food to

reduce the overpopulation and poverty.

i don't know if this is a good answer

To convince readers that censors have unjust motives, the author uses rhetoric to appeal mostly to
kumpel [21]

Here is the full excerpt for this question:

For me, reading has always been a path toward liberation and fulfilment. To learn to read is to start down the road of liberation, a road which should be accessible to everyone. No one has the right to keep you from reading, and yet that is what is happening in many areas in this country today. There are those who think they know best what we should read. These censors are at work in all areas of our daily lives.

I believe the answer is: D. emotions

Rhetoric that appeal to emotions could be seen from the use of sentences that is aimed to make the readers/listeners relate to a certain situation that might ignite their emotional response. From the excerpt above, this could be seen in this line: <em>No one has the right to keep you from reading, and yet that is what is happening in many areas in this country today.</em>
