Answer: A. Steel beams and girders in modern-day city skyscrapers have stronger connections and are put together more quickly and with fewer workers than connections formed by riveting.

Explanation:

Paraphrase refers to the restatement of a text, or passage, such that the meaning of the passage is given in another form.

The choice that is the best paraphrase of the text will be "Steel beams and girders in modern-day city skyscrapers have stronger connections and are put together more quickly and with fewer workers than connections formed by riveting".

Therefore, the correct option is A.

zalisa [80]

Adrift at sea, Robinson Crusoe realizes

he is almost to the shore.

Robinson Crusoe is an excellent

swimmer and navigates rough

waves.

The waves pick up Crusoe two more

times, but he holds fast to a rock

and eventually makes it to shore.

The sea deposits Crusoe on land, but he

does not make it far before another wave

crashes over him.

Crusoe attempts to guide himself to the

shore by shooting his hands above the

water.

Pulled underwater once again, Crusoe

holds his breath as he waits for the

waves to cease.

Why is appeal to authority used
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

When writers or speakers use appeal to authority, they are claiming that something must be true because it is believed by someone who said to be an "authority" on the subject. Whether the person is actually an authority or not, the logic is unsound. Instead of presenting actual evidence, the argument just relies on the credibility of the "authority."

Examples of Appeal to Authority:

1. A commercial claims that a specific brand of cereal is the best way to start the day because athlete Michael Jordan says that it is what he eats every day for breakfast.

2. A book argues that global warming is not actually happening, and cites the research of one environmental scientist who has been studying climate change for several years.

3. Someone argues that drinking is morally wrong and cites a sermon from her pastor at church.

4. A little boy says that his friends should not go swimming in a river because his Mama said there were germs in the river.

5. A commercial claims that 3 out of 4 dentists would choose this particular brand of toothpaste for their own families to use.

6. My sister-in-law, who is a teacher, said that this school is not somewhere that I would want to send my children.
