English
1 answer:
fgiga [73]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explanation:  The main idea is the "key concept" being expressed. Details, major and minor, support the main idea by telling how, what, when, where, why, how much, or how many. Locating the topic, main idea, and supporting details helps you understand the point(s) the writer is attempting to express.

6. What is the main thesis of Verret’s essay? What is he trying to argue and what evidence does he provide? Is his argument effe
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

A) The main thesis of Verret's Essay is a solicitation for the extension of Sea Ports for the United States of America.

B) His argument is based on the following facts:

i. that seaports are a major entry point of illicit and potentially harmful weapons that can cause destruction on a large scale

ii. that extending the seaports farther away from the coast of the USA will allow for damages or destruction to lives and property (should they arise at all) be minimized or eliminated altogether.

C) He goes on to indicate the role of the security and port management agencies and how they could contribute to ensuring the process works. He speaks of using X-Ray technologies to enhance the speed and effectiveness of the search process.

D) He also tries to justify the huge cost this might attract. One of his suggestion on how this can be managed is to ensure that countries exporting to the USA also pay a certain charge to this effect. In my opinion, though this is practicable on paper, ideally, it may pose a tough one. There are already costs associated with exporting to US. With over 30 trading partners and other countries who compete with the US in international trade, the proposal to transfer costs for projects that benefits the US primarily might prove a tough one.

Besides point D above, Verret's argument is plausible.

Which excerpt from Carl Sandburg’s "The Wedding Procession of the Rag Doll and the Broom Handle and Who Was in It" includes repe
maksim [4K]

Answer:

C. Next came the Tin Pan Bangers. Some had dishpans, some had frying pans, some had potato peeling pans. All the pans were tin with tight tin bottoms. And the Tin Pan Bangers banged with knives and forks and iron and wooden bangers on the bottoms of the tin pans.

Explanation:

<u>Repetition is a literary device that has the same sound or words being repeated in succession or in close gaps in a sentence</u>. In it, the same words or phrases are repeated more than once in order to reemphasize the words or phrases.

<u>Alliteration is the repetition of the same letter or sound of a word in close consequence in a sentence</u>. It is also more commonly known as head rhyme or initial rhyme for the very first consonant letter or the sound of the word is repeated in the same sentence in sequence or close quarters.

From the given passages from <em>The Wedding Procession of the Rag Doll and the Broom Handle and Who Was in It</em> by Carl Sandburg, repetition and alliteration can be found in the third passage. This is because the passage contains words such as <u>"</u><em><u>such as</u></em><u>" which is repeated thrice</u> which shows it is a <u>repetition</u>. And <u>alliteration is seen in the words </u><em><u>"potato peeling pans", "tin with tight tin"</u></em><u> and </u><em><u>"bangers on the bottom"</u></em>.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
