The tipping point part a: what is the authors purpose in this text

English
1 answer:
user100 [1]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: Gladwell's main purpose for writing this novel is to inform the general public about memetics and its related concepts through relatable anecdotes and pop cultural references in order to further illustrate this complex theory to an average reader.

Explanation: This is what Gladwell calls a tipping point. As the name of the book implies, tipping points are Gladwell's focus. If we accept his premise that social phenomena act as epidemics, then studying when the tipping point in the epidemic occurs seems to be the most illustrative way to understand the epidemic. The main idea or central idea in "The Tipping Point" is similarities between social phenomena and diseases show the significance small changes can have on overall social trends.

Read these sentences from the ReadWorks passage, "Cabin in the Woods".
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Based on this information, what we can conclude about what Joey told Jessica and Felicia about the cabin is:

Joey told them something horrifying.

Explanation:

In general, what makes us afraid of falling asleep is something horrifying. For most people, horror movies or stories will do the trick, especially if they think they will dream about whatever it is they saw or that was described. This seems to be the case with the cabin Joey described. He probably talked of an abandoned cabin in the woods, where creaking noises can be heard and where hikers claim to have seen a ghost or monster of some kind. No wonder Felicia would push it to the back of her mind. Such a description would certainly make her afraid, maybe even make its way into her dreams.
