Answer:

The tone is that of despair. An informal diction, as well as figurative speech, were used by the author and that, can be seen in these two examples;

a. The years took all the fight out of Janie's face

b. She was a rut in the road.

Explanation:

Diction is the word-choice of an author. It could be informal or formal depending on the topic of discussion. The author in this excerpt used informal diction and figurative language to describe the feeling of despair that Janie felt. This can be seen in the following expressions;

a. The years took all the fight out of Janie's face: This was used to show the dejection and depression Janie felt because of the constant disagreements between her and Jody.

b. She was a rut in the road: This is not to be understood literally, rather, just as a rut was deep and was caused by the constant passage of the wheels of a vehicle so was Janie whose essence could not be seen as a result of her outward pains and continuous struggles through the years.

Describe how Escobar’s reign was finally ended.

vitfil [10]

Answer:

After the assassination of Luis Carlos Galán, the administration of César Gaviria moved against Escobar and the drug cartels. ... Declaring an end to a series of previous violent acts meant to pressure authorities and public opinion, Escobar surrendered to Colombian authorities in 1991.

Roberto Escobar maintains Pablo fell into the drug business simply because other types of contraband became too dangerous to traffic. As there were no drug cartels then, and only a few drug barons, Pablo saw it as untapped territory he wished to make his own.

If a researcher was collecting data from the same group of 30 people from infancy through childhood, they would be using the ___

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

a. longitudinal

Explanation:

A longitudinal study examines a given group over a long period of time, so collecting data from the same group of 30 people over their lifetime certainly fits that definition. It's more like an evolution study.

A cross-sectional compares different groups at the same point in time. So, it's more like a survey.

A microgenetic is much focused in time, providing multiple data sets in a short time to examine rapid evolution of a subject.

An experimental study design will make interactions and experiments with the study group, while this is not the case here apparently, and experimental is usually for a much shorter period than a generation.
