English
1 answer:
choli [55]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

B. As a prepared athlete with an unusual life.

Explanation:

The literary piece "Fastest Woman in the World " by Pat Parker tells the story of how Wilma Rudolph came to be one of the most celebrated and famous sportswomen. The article details how Wilma encountered and overcame numerous obstacles to become an Olympic champion.

At the beginning of the article, the author reveals how Wilma was <em>"poised for the race"</em> just before the signal was given. But despite this<em> "poised" </em>appearance, things were not smooth sailing for the sportswoman. The author revealed <em>"Wilma wasn’t an ordinary athlete",</em> suggestive of something behind the façade of a poised woman ready to take on the race.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

What is one disadvantage of using a radio ad to announce the arrival of several works by a famous painter at a local art museum?
Anestetic [448]
A radio ad communicates ideas audibly, not visually, so it cannot let people see images of the painter’s works.

A lot of people won’t be pulled in because they can’t see the paintings. I’d say this is the answer, since the other three don’t really fit. Radio ads can play more than once, most of them aren’t even funny, and they’re short, but they usually have an address or location attached.

Except for a few pigeons, Central Park was deserted. Mist hung above the chilled grass. Patches of old
stepan [7]
I would say the best answer is A, he hides behind a tree. I was in between A and D, but one can run in a park. 

B wouldn't work because him being dressed in ordinary street clothes doesn't show that he's afraid of something.

C wouldn't work because although yes, he was panting, that could mean that he's just tired; not necessarily, scared.

The man hiding behind the tree is the best evidence for the conclusion of him being afraid of something. Also in the passage it states, "....he moved behind a tree. Seeming not to notice my presence, he stood with his back against the trunk, panting."
