2. (1) It is difficult to do the intense, active thinking that clear writing demands. (2) (Perhaps television has made us all so

passive that the active thinking necessary in both writing and reading now seems doubly hard.) (3) It is frightening to sit down before a blank sheet of paper and know that an hour later, nothing on it may be worth keeping. (4) It is frustrating to discover how much of a challenge it is to transfer thoughts and feelings from one's head onto a sheet of paper. (5) It is upsetting to find that an apparently simple writing assignment often turns out to be complicated. (6) But writing is not an automatic process: we will not get something for nothing, and we cannot expect something for nothing.
The implied main idea of the selection is
a. Writing is hard work.

b. Writing offers rich rewards.

c. Anything worthwhile requires patience and effort.

d. Television is making active thinking more difficult than ever.

Which sentences correctly use quotations from "A Modest Proposal"? Check all that apply.
Natalka [10]
In my opinion, the sentences that correctly use quotations are:

<span>2) Swift asserts that whoever finds “a fair, cheap and easy method” for solving the overwhelming issue of poverty in England would deserve to have “his statue set up for a preserver of the nation.” The author quotes chosen parts of Swift's narrative with correct punctuation.

</span><span>4) Swift explains that his proposal would bring relief to impoverished parents because they would “be rid of the charge of maintaining them after the first year.” The author quotes a part of the narrative.

5) “This would be a great inducement to marriage, which all wise nations have either encouraged by rewards, or enforced by laws and penalties,” writes Swift about his proposal. The author quotes an entire sentence as direct speech.
</span>
The first example isn't correct because the whole sentence is in quotation marks. The third one isn't correct either because there is no quotation; it is just a paraphrase.

Which explanation defines the nut graph of a news story
Zielflug [23.3K]

The "Nut Graph" is known as the paragraph that helps to put the story in context, provides any additional information that may be useful for the reader and that can lead to a better understanding of it.


The Nut Graph is often the third or fourth paragraph of the news story and  the information that contains is always related to how the context affects the reader and the story as well.


In journalism, it is used when the writer considers that the reader will need more context in order to understand why, what, who and how it happened, without really saying it, because this answers are normally given during the first and second paragraph.
