Romantic literature dominated American arts and letters up until the end of the 19th century. In "Fenimore Cooper's Literary Off

ences" Twain discusses how Cooper's writing fails because Cooper's writing focuses more on imagination than on any sort of logic or realistic depictions.
How does Twain avoid these "literary offences" in "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County" and why is this avoidance significant?

Answer and Explanation:

Twain avoided "literary offenses" by not mentioning these works throughout the narrative. This was significant because Twain keeps his attention on the narrative itself, specifically stimulating the themes that the narrative addresses.

In this case, instead of provoking criticism to other known works and authors, Twain highlights a narrative with themes that provoke reflections on regional differences and stereotypes, a sense of community and personal integrity.

Write a letter to your friend describing about your village?<br><br>​
ANTONII [103]

<em>Hi there my friend! A happy and prosperous new year to you and your family. I hope my letter comes to you in great timing and shape. I wrote to you to give you an idea about the village where I live. Who knows? Maybe one day you would want to visit here. </em>

<em> </em>

<em>The weather here is tropical. We only have two seasons: rainy days and summer days. Since it is January now, the weather is transitioning from cold to warm. Summer days will start on March. Aside from the weather, the village I lived in is busy as it is located in the city. The roads going to our home is always jam packed with different types of cars and vehicles. You can expect heavy traffic all the time. But then, all progressive cities have that don't they? In spite of heavy traffic, our village has numbers of malls. You can walk for about 5 to 10 minutes from our home, and you can reach a mall called SM. It has almost everything. Groceries, hardware, food courts and famous food stores. Across SM is another mall called Vista Mall which has cinemas and massage shops. There are also small hospitals nearby but to be able to go there, you can book a cab via Uber or Grab because it is no walking distance. </em>

<em> </em>

<em>Beside SM, we have marketplace. If you are interested in preparing your own meals, you can shop there for fresh goods. We also have 7 eleven shops and sports bar nearby.  </em>

<em> </em>

<em>Our village is composed of houses which are bungalow styles. It is made up of concrete and wood materials. People there are friendly and they almost knew each other. Everybody will greet you with huge smile on their faces every morning. They are also helpful in times of calamities and problems. When it comes to security, our village gate is guarded with armed security guards who never leave their post to monitor every one coming in and out of the village. There are also CCTV cameras on the streets to ensure the safety of all people living there. </em>

<em> </em>

<em>I hope I have described my village to you. In your next letter, can you describe me yours? </em>

<em> </em>

<em>I am looking forward to hear from you.  </em>

<em> </em>

<em>Best regards, </em>

<em>HENRY</em>

Think about the new law in Washington, D.C. Shoppers must pay a tax for throw-away bags. Do you think this was the best thing to
const2013 [10]

Answer:

Yes, I think it was the best thing to do. When people spend money on things they tend to appreciate their importance. Paying for carryout plastic and paper disposable bags would help people realize the danger extensive use of these bags have on the environment.

Explanation:

Anacostia River and Clean Up Act of 2009 was made with the idea of charging 5 cents for customers who do not bring their own disposable bags. This idea was accepted and signed into law by Washington DC.

This tax was the best thing to do as it would help people to become more wary and conscious of carelessly using disposable bags that damage the environment.
