Answer and Explanation:
1. Bly exposes a point of view where he shows that the mentally ill are treated badly, exploited, harmed and hurt by the authorities that do not propose an inspection and a good treatment for all of them. In addition, she claims that the authorities do not investigate whether a person could even be taken to a hispanic for an accusation of madness, since no one investigated to see if he was really mad, he did not even ask him, after he was accused of madness. In other words, Bly's point of view shows that the authorities are incompetent and the sick, unfortunately, badly treated.
2. She makes a strong use of irony, affirming sarcastically statements that emit one meaning when in fact, they mean another. However, this is not done in a subjective way, but expositively, so that everyone has the ability to understand what she was talking about. An example of this is when she shows how efficient the authorities are in their work, as they allowed a non-crazy woman to enter a hospice and stay there for days.
3. Bly shows how she is a courageous, fearless journalist, dedicated to her work, committed to truth and justice.
Answer:
I would say the correct answer is A. the sea. It can be seen as a symbol of life itself.
Explanation:
<u>A symbol as a figure of speech represents something that is above and beyond the literal meaning of the word.</u> For example, the sea here doesn't only refer to the actual Mediterranean sea that Odysseus is sailing through with his crew. <u>It represents life and its many troubles and ordeals.</u>
<u>Just like the sea, life is unpredictable and always on the brink of death.</u> Even though Odysseus is trying to maneuver through it with his sailor's skills, it still may prove impossible. Even when it seems that the coast (that is shelter, safe space) is near, the sea still has the power to draw him further away. By using this symbol, Homer implies that life is never peaceful and reliable. On the contrary - it is ultimately unsafe and absolutely beyond our control.
Answer:
D). It contains background information about the Nature Center that a general audience would need.
Explanation:
As per the opening paragraph given here from a formal e-mail, the reader would conclude that the e-mail was composed for a general audience as the inclusion of 'background information about the Nature Center reflects the information that a general audience would require'. A general audience comprises distinct categories of people who may or may not possess the relevant contextual knowledge about the subject or topic and therefore, require background information to understand the topic and intended information clearly and comprehensively. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.
