It conveys the subject of the paragraph.
That way, the subject can be further elaborated and backed up with supporting statements/evidence in the following sentences of the paragraph :)
Hello. Although you have submitted a text, you have not submitted any questions related to it, which makes it impossible for me to provide you with an answer. However, I will try to help you by showing you what is happening in this text.
The text you show above presents a logical fallacy. A logical fallacy is an argument that was created with incorrect reasoning but was presented as true. This text introduces the logical fallacy known as Straw man. This kind of fallacy causes a person in a debate to reproduce his opponent's argument in a distorted way and with a completely different meaning. We can see this fallacy in the question above because when Trish Harris claims that increasing school hours would help students get better grades on tests, Dan Richardson reproduces this comment completely distorted, claiming that Trish devalued the students and claimed they were the worst students of the district.
The subject is your mittens.
The general answer given below about the passage "Indifference the, is not only a sin, it is a punishment" is likely to help you answer the question. The reason for this general answer is that I was unable to find the answer choices for this question online:
- In his speech "The Perils of Indifference," Elie Wiesel discusses how apathy in front of human suffering can lead to a tragedy.
- By saying that indifference is a punishment, he means that being indifferent (doing nothing) when seeing others suffering is the same as hurting them.
- When we do not help a victim, we are siding with the criminal. When we do not feed the hungry or aide the sick, we are watching them die. Therefore, indifference is as cruel as hurting others.
- Elie Wiesel is a survivor of the Holocaust. Therefore, he knows what it feels like to be beaten, starved, tortured and have no one at all help you.
- Wiesel knows, thus, how awful indifference is. As he suffered in the hands of the Nazi, he wondered why no one did anything to help.
- Why didn't other countries intervene to free the prisoners? Why were people watching millions of people die, killed by a cruel regime, without doing anything to stop it?
- In "The Perils of Indifference," Wiesel condemns inaction, apathy, inertia.
- According to him, <u>doing nothing is as good as harming</u>. If you don't help, you contribute to the suffering.
- The only one who gains something from indifference is the criminal, the aggressor.
