Answer:
to explain the feelings of worry experienced by an
immigrant family.
Explanation:
This is the excerpt from Russell Freedman's book "The Immigrant Kids" which tells the story of late 1800s and early 1900s immigrant families arriving in America. Upon arrival, the kids underwent rigorous examinations in order to prevent them from bringing any contagious disease into the country.
However, this excerpt doesn't deal with description of the physical examination; it rather focuses on the fear and constant anxiety triggered by the possibility of a family member being banned from entering the country.
It strongly depicts that family worries never stopped, not even after reaching American soil.
Answer: D) You want to remember the information.
Explanation: When you paraphrase you're not trying to rememer the information, you're putting the information in your own words.
I could be wrong, but I help this helps!
The writing process can be described as a recursive process. For many years, it was considered that writing was linear, and that 5 steps were needed:
Prewriting: It's similar to Brainstorming. You organize your thoughts, your ideas. You plan how the text should be organized.
Drafting: It is your first attempt. Forget about grammar.
Revising: Now, you can add things, re-arrange words or paragraphs, take out.
Proofreading: this is the editing time. Mistakes, tenses should be considered. Clarity is essential.
Publishing: final stage. Ready to print or handed in toyour teacher
But in further research, it was proved that those stages overlap, as they are repeated throughout the writing process.
BRAINSTORMING is a helpful step to take before writing as you put into paper all your ideas ( you may use all or some of them) It is opening your mind to any idea that comes, however crazy it sounds.
COVER LETTER There are some key elements that should be considered when writing a cover letter:
- Begin with your contact information ( on the left of the paper, towards the top,in block)
- Don't forget the date as with any normal letter!
- Include to who this letter is addressed ( hiring manager, head of the recruiting department, etc)
- Formal salutation
- Opening paragraph (explain how you learned about the opening position)
- Middle paragraph ( a summary of your background and why you are suitable for this job)
- Contact information and closing ( explain when you are available, thanks the person for his/her time and consideration)
