Ivanshal [37]2 years ago

Answer:

1. Don't judge a book by its cover

Contradictory Adage: The clothes make the man.

Adage most true, and why?: "Don't judge a book by its cover" is the most true here. This is because judging a man by his physical appearance can lead to misjudgment of who the man truly is. It is not the outside (the cover) that actually makes or defines a man. It is his what is inside that truly defines a man.

2. Curiosity killed the cat

Contradictory Adage: What you don't know can't hurt you

Adage most true, and why?: "<em>Curiosity killed the cat</em>" is the most true here. This is true because being too inquisitive on matters that one doesn't know about can actually expose that individual to danger. The contradictory adage isn't so true because it doesn't really work like that in all cases.

3. Opposites attract

Contradictory Adage: Birds of a feather flock together

Adage most true, and why?: "<em>Opposites attract</em>" is the most true here. This is true because this particular adage actually plays out very well in our world today. It has been designed for opposites to attract. Among humans and animals, opposite genders attract each other. In magnetism, opposite poles attract each.

4. Don't cross that bridge until you come to it

Contradictory Adage: Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today

Adage most true, and why?: "<em>Don't cross that bridge until you come to it</em>" is the most true here. This is because worrying about tomorrow's problems today is needless. They can actually make one to loose focus.

Explanation:

I have been able to answer the given questions.

The main adages in the first column are actually the adages that are most true. In my above explanations, I gave clear explanations why they are the most true.

Proverbs are known to be simple traditional statements that actually express perceived truth and which is usually based on experience or common sense. They can be metaphorical.

Which piece of evidence explains the cause of the publishing industry being mostly white?
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The question is from the newsela article, <em>"Missteps lead publishing industry to review  diversity effort."</em>

The answers are:

  1. (A) The latest results showed the industry is around 75 percent white and mostly female.
  2. (C) Cummins is not of Mexican heritage but visited the country and migrant shelters along the border for book research. In a New York Times op-ed in 2016, she wrote, "My family is mostly white." She has one Puerto Rican grandparent.
  3. (B) to demonstrate the effectiveness of a diversity program aimed at increasing diversity in publishing.
  4. (C) She would disagree and note the changes she has observed since beginning her career.

Explanation:

  1. The information, "<em>The children's book publisher Lee & Low released a survey of people who work in publishing. The  latest results showed the industry is around 75 percent white and mostly female." </em>conveys that empirical data supports the claim that the publishing industry is mostly white.
  2. In the introductory paragraph, the major concern of the critics is conveyed in the line, "Critics of "American Dirt" claim its  story makes mistakes in describing Mexican life and culture. The misrepresentation of Mexican culture in<em> "American Dirt" </em>can be accredited to the facts that Cummins is neither Mexican nor was the cultural research adequate.  
  3. Michaela T. Glover is one of the interns at the United Negro College  Fund internship program. The lines,<em> "The organization WeNeedDiverseBooks works with  publishers and agents to recruit interns. The program began with five interns in 2015 and will  likely place 15-20 this summer. Out of 44 interns, 39 have since graduated from college and 30  have found full-time work in publishing, according to the organization. " </em>convey that the program is working to diversify the publishing industry.
  4. Tracy Sherrod conveys her publishing experience in the lines, "I first came into publishing in the 1980s and at that time it was believed that black people didn't  read. That statement was made to me multiple times, so we've come a long way," she said. "We're  growing as an industry, but there will be some growing pains." Tracy Sherrod believes that the industry is growing.
