The correct answer is 3. Ralph was a rational boy

Explanation:

An academic essay is a paper in which the author tries to persuade the reader about something by providing evidence; also, academic essays should address the reader in a formal tone and voice, this means the author avoids using contractions, colloquial words such as slangs, phrasal verbs and first-person pronouns, also formal tone and voice in essays imply using third person pronouns, connecting ideas by formal linking verbs and choosing the appropriate vocabulary that means avoiding informal words or words that express a judgement from the author of the essay and instead choosing a more formal word with the same meaning, in this way the author can express his voice (personal features of writing), but communicate ideas in a formal way. Considering this "Ralph was a rational boy" show a formal tone and voice because it describes Ralph but avoid providing a personal judgment such as good or gnarly, also, the word "rational" is more formal than intelligent or similar more informal words.

Liula [17]

Answer:

A written account of someone’s life.

Explanation:

A biography is someone else (not the main character) writing the character's life out based on an actual person.

<span>1. In my opinion this situation is an example of wasting talent. Yes, Hanna has natural skill at field hockey, but she does not develop it. The lack of practice could cause the wasting of your natural skill. Natural skill = talent, so the answer is "wasting talent".
 2. I think that this one is also an example of wasting talent. Even if Marcy is a very good math student, she should prove it by showing good results on tests. And the most important thing that she should expand her math knowledge and not to lose her potential. It also could be a result of getting distracted but there was no mention about this factor.
 3. In my view this situation is a good example of allowing others to set goals. This commercial allowed Stefan to set goal to buy this reader. Now he has a goal that he can reach or not.
 4. I am definitely sure that this situation is an example of allowing others to set goals. This situation gives him an additional motivation to rich his goal by proving his parents that being a teacher is his calling.
  5. This situation is also a good example of allowing others to set goals. Father asks Noah to stay closer to hove, and gives him an opportunity to choose between family or career. According to what he chooses, he can set a particular set of goals.
 6. This situation is 100% an example of getting distracted. Elise is wrong at her time management because she is being distracted by her friends. We don't know if she is good at English and has some natural skills, so it's "getting distracted" option.
 7. If I understand it correctly, this situation is an example of allowing others to set goals. Because Jim has a choice between internship or working at the grocery to help himself and his father to get money for college. He should to think how to set his goals correctly.
 8. I am completely sure that this one is an example of wasting talent. Ben sets his priorities wrong and he wastes his potential in wrestling because if he doesn't lose two pounds, he won't wreslte this week. It's important to keep in shape when you are doing sports.
  9. If I got it right, this situation is an example of getting distracted. Ellen has lost her attention because of the loud music while she was driving her car with friends. 
10. I am pretty sure that in this case it would be "wasting talent" option. Jose does not develop his natural skill to be a leader by practicing in real life. He wastes his potential and his talent without enough practice.</span>
