Answer:

We use Conditional tenses to talk about hypothetic situations in the future, in the past, and to talk about events that would have happened.

a. If we were to be hit by an iceberg, we would die.

b If my cat were to eat a mouse, it would be a predator.

c If I were never to go in the sun, I would be extremely pale.

Explanation:

Conditional tenses communicate hypothetical situations in the past, theories about what might have happened, what happens concerning facts that are always true, and events with a low probability to occur in the future.

The sentences in this exercise are using conditionals to talk about situations in the present or future that probably will not happen.

We use:

the word if + the subject + were to,.... + subject + would + verb in the infinitive....

In formal writing, we can use the subjects he, she, and it with the auxiliary were instead of was and then the verb in the infinitive. For example, If he were to fail his test, he would be sad.

What helps a literary critic determine a story's complex theme
avanturin [10]
What helps a literary critic determine a story's complex theme are the specific details within the story.
These details are what makes a story complex or simple - if there aren't enough details (or if there are, but they are pretty obvious to figure out), then a story would be simple. But if the details are difficult to understand and need to be explored and researched thoroughly, then it would be a complex story.

Which of the following can improve the tone of a presentation by making it sound more professional?
LekaFEV [45]

I found this from https://www.market-inspector.co.uk/blog/2017/02/speaking-habits-to-help-you-sound-professional I  ( I need to cite my sources )

Answer:Always remember to stand or sit with your back straight! Your posture is the first thing the audience will notice. First impression always matter!

Maintain visual contact with the audience! This shows that you are connected with your audience.

Remember that your listeners deserve your full attention. No one likes to listen to an emotionless presentation where the person speaking doesn’t seem mentally present.

Not everyone has front seats! Remember to speak loudly and make sure everybody is able to hear you. However, do not start yelling.

Body language and gestures make every presentation more engaging and vivid! Therefore, use these to emphasize important points. If you don not feel like it comes natural to use body language, it is better not to use it too much.  

Make yourself understood! Use words that your audience will understand and make clear the points that you are presenting. Fancy words or expression may only create confusion. Avoid emphasizing yourself and instead make it about the cause you are there for.

Use pauses! They can help you emphasize key points and create suspense. Your listeners will stay engaged and will be able to remember more of your presentation as they will connect it with a certain move or a certain moment of silence.

You need to interact and respond to questions! There will always be questions. Therefore, you need to make it feel more like a conversation. The more questions you ask and explain, the more involved and professional you will look.
