Answer:

Refrain

Explanation:

A refrain is a recurring phrase at the end of each stanza of a poem (or a song)

Well this just tells us that since it can be an element of song, then this is like the chorus of song. The answers rhyme scheme, stanza, and line break do not make any sense in this question. If you were looking for the correct answer here it is.

You would like to find the most recent information on a news topic for an essay you're writing. Which of the following websites

Masja [62]

The correct answer is answer B "Britannica Online".

Britannica online only contains fact-checked information, so it's a good source that you can always trust.

Using a search engine could give you many un-checked facts or information that may be unsuitable for an essay.

Finally, CNN Interactive will offer very quick updates and is specialized on news items. The problem here, is that this is most definitely a biased source as it's part of a huge corporate network.

Hope this helps!

Both “Silky” Bob in “After Twenty Years” and Tessie in “The Lottery” face threats to their lives or freedom. Compare and contras

Radda [10]

Bob and Tessie's personas may me considered very different, as Bob seems a person that is very proud of his success and Tessie looks like a simple person, acting unpretentious. Their behavior can be based and figured out by the following paragraphs:

In "After Twenty Years"

“You were successful in the West, weren’t you?” asked the cop.

“I surely was! I hope Jimmy has done half as well. He was a slow

mover. I’ve had to fight for my success. In New York a man doesn’t

change much. In the West you learn how to fight for what you get.”

In "The Lottery"

"Clean forgot what day it was," she (Tessie) said to Mrs. Delacroix, who stood next to her, and they both laughed softly.

"Thought my old man was out back stacking wood," Mrs. Hutchinson went on. "and then I looked out the window and the kids was gone, and then I remembered it was the twenty-seventh and came a-running." She dried her hands on her apron, and Mrs. Delacroix said, "You're in time, though. They're still talking away up there."

The difference of Bob and Tessie's situation was that Bob had his freedom threatened, as he was arrested for committing a crime, but instead of being immediately arrested, he has the opportunity to meet his friend (even if by this time he doesn't know the first police man is his friend) and his friend has mercy on him, calling other man to do the arrest ; Tessie, on the other hand, has been the "winner" of a "death lottery" in which with no crimes or bad attitudes she has been chosen out of luck to a death sentence. Immediately, the city, which at first seem so friendly, has no mercy at all and even her family engage on the stoning.

Bob feels surprised, as he discovers that his old friend does not look the same person he made the appointment 20 years before; That can be inferred in these excerpt of the final paragraphs:

" The man of the West stopped suddenly and pulled his arm away.

"You're not Jimmy Wells!", he said, "Twenty years is a long time, but not long enough to change the shape of a man's nose!" "

As for Tessie, the feeling she has is the feeling of being wronged, as if the whole lottery has been unjust and she is not supposed to be the one who's the "winner". This feeling starts when her family has been drawn from the black box of papers:

"People began to look around to see the Hutchinsons. Bill Hutchinson was standing quiet, staring down at the paper in his hand. Suddenly. Tessie Hutchinson shouted to Mr. Summers. "You didn't give him time enough to take any paper he wanted. I saw you. It wasn't fair!" "

And she continuously feels the situation more unfair as she draws the paper with the black spot and finally prepares herself for the popular stoning.

I hope you may be able to fill in your chart with these informations!

Which best describes the type of appeal used in this part of the speech? a logical appeal an ethical appeal an emotional appeal

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

This is the excerpt the question refers to:

It will be recorded that the distance of Hawaii from Japan makes it obvious that the attack was deliberately planned many days or even weeks ago. During the intervening time the Japanese Government has deliberately sought to deceive the United States by false statements and expressions of hope for continued peace.

The appeal of that excerpt is: logical appeal

Explanation:

In the excerpt, a logical fact is being pointed at: Japan is very far from Hawaii, and because the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor was not only unexpected, but also successful (for the Japanese), it must have been planned many days or weeks ago.

An deadly attack on foreign soil, that is far away from home, cannot be rushed out. It needs planning, and that is obviously what the Japanese did.
