Which phrase best defines "paraphrase"?

English
1 answer:
Ratling [72]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The answer is "a source excerpt in your own words".

Explanation:

Paraphrasing implies expressing a message (written or spoken) by using your own words.

For example, in "John painted the house" we could say "the house was painted by John" and the meaning is exactly the same.

Another example could be "Peter is married" and "Peter is not single". Again, in both cases we are saying the same.

Based on this description of the townspeople's reactions, what inferences can you draw about Mr. Hooper's happiness in life?
guajiro [1.7K]

Inferences can be tough. It involves you to use all of the information surrounding it in order to make a conclusion based on what is happening. As you read the passage, document or highlight the townspeople reactions to Mr. Hooper. Are they sad for him?  Happy?  Surprised?  For example, if his happiness makes the townspeople feel sad towards him, that says that his happiness in life hasn’t really been present (possibly because of some tragedy). Therefore their feeling of sadness stems from the fact that his happiness has long since been overdue.
