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.

Convierta las siguientes preguntas directas en indirectas. Did Diana go out last night? Where did Augusto meet with his brother?
kaheart [24]

Answer:

1. Do you know if Diana went out last night?

2. Can you tell me where Augusto met with his brother?

3. Can you tell me how the movie was?

4. Do you know what the problem was?

5. Do you know why Teresa was so early?

6. Can you tell me where you live?

7. Can you tell me when your birthday is?

8. Do you know who she is?

Explanation:

En inglés, preguntas indirectas normalmente empiezan por una pregunta extra que no es realmente necesaria. Es usada simplemente para hacer la frase más educada, cortés. Las preguntas más comunes son "Do you know" y "Can you tell me".

Si la pregunta original tiene una question word (who, what, where, when, etc.), debemos añadir la pregunta extra y eliminar los verbos auxiliares o cambiar su sitio en la frase si es necesario:

Who is there? - Do you know who is there?

Who did you see? - Can you tell me who you saw?

Who was she? - Do you know who she was?

Pero si la pregunta original no tiene question word y empieza por un verbo auxiliar, debemos eliminarlo y añadir "if":

Did you call me? - Can you tell me if you called me?

Do you like apples? - Can you tell me if you like apples?

I think it would be best if you write it yourself, that way it sounds more original and you won’t have to worry about plagiarism. But that’s just my opinion. But, some of my advice would be to use a website called Grammarly, it’s super helpful for this sort of thing. :). Sorry this wasn’t the answer you wanted.
