Answer: A: Norris wanted to change the date of the inauguration because he believed it was unfair.
Explanation:
Norris considered the long lame-duck period as unfair because it allowed outgoing congress members to sign laws despite a new administration having been elected.
Norris´ initiative was aimed to avoid the lame-duck Congress before the inauguration, not to empower it. The time for a new president to plan before the inauguration was already established before the amendment, and was actually considered too long for that historical time. The date of the inauguration was moved from March 4 to January 20, not to the day after the election, as that wouldn´t be enough even today.
Answer: i dont see an sentence
Explanation:
Answer:
1.
Appositive Phrase: the capital of Canada
Noun: Ottawa
2.
Appositive: older
Noun: sister
3.
Appositive Phrase: pancakes and ham
Noun: hearty breakfast
Explanation:
An appositive or apposite is a word or group of words juxtaposed besides a noun or pronoun to provide further information about them. They could come before or after the noun or pronoun that they modify. In the first sentence, Ottawa is the noun that was further described as the capital of Canada. The sentence would still be complete without the addition of the appositive phrase.
In the second sentence, the appositive, older provides further description about the noun, sister. In the third sentence, the appositive phrase identifies the breakfast. Appositives are additional information without which, the sentence will still stand.
The answer you picked is correct
As a literary genre, a memoir (from the French: mémoire from the Latin memoria, meaning "memory"), or a reminiscence, forms a subclass of autobiography – although the terms 'memoir' and 'autobiography' are today almost interchangeable. The author of a memoir may be referred to as a memoirist.
<span>***Nature of Memoirs*** </span>
<span>Memoirs may appear less structured and less encompassing than formal autobiographical works as they are usually about part of a life rather than the chronological telling of a life from childhood to adulthood/old age. Traditionally, memoirs usually dealt with public matters, rather than personal, and many older memoirs contain little or no information about the writer, and are almost entirely concerned with other people. They tended to be written by politicians or people in court society, later joined by military leaders and businessmen, and often dealt exclusively with the writer's careers rather than their private life. Modern expectations have changed this, even for heads of government. Like most autobiographies, memoirs are generally written from the first person point of view. </span>
<span>Gore Vidal, in his own memoir Palimpsest, gave a personal definition: "a memoir is how one remembers one's own life, while an autobiography is history, requiring research, dates, facts double-checked." It is more about what can be gleaned from a section of one's life than about the outcome of the life as a whole</span>
