The dictionary explains the exact meaning of the word and its different interpretations. The thesaurus gives you different words with the same or similar meaning.

Sample response: A dictionary tells you the definition of a word, and a thesaurus tells you the synonyms and antonyms. You can use a dictionary to check a word’s meaning. You can use a thesaurus to find other words that have similar meanings. You should check definitions of the synonyms in a dictionary, though, because synonyms do not all have the exact meaning.

Monica [59]

She gave the speech in response to a man's statement about the weakness and inferiority of women. This happened at a convention on the rights of women in Ohio, in 1851. She was convinced that she deserved the same rights as white men or women and was determined to be heard.

At the beginning of the speech she uses a relaxed, direct tone generating  empathy and warming up the audience: <em>out of kilter. I think that 'twixt the blacks of the South and the women at the North, all talking about rights, the white men will be in a fix pretty soon. But what's all this here talking about? (1-3) </em>

While the speech continues, the tone changes and becomes vigorous and empowering. She gives credibility (Ethos) to the speech by talking about her personal experiences as a slave:<em> "work as much and eat as much as a man ... and bear the lash as well!" </em>

She uses sevaral devices such as pathos. For example when she shares hes experiences of his motherhood and her feelings in relation to it: <em>I have borne thirteen children and seen all sold off to slavery and when I cried out with my mother grief, none but Jesus heard me! And ain't I a woman? </em>

To achieve certain communicative outcomes, tone and formality are fundamental in the development of discourse. Everything is based on the intentionality of what is going to be transmitted. Sojourner Truth talked to the audience and shared their point of view, invited them to stand next to her.

A student is writing the introduction to an opinion piece about the benefits of a plant-based diet.
Setler [38]

Answer:

Looks like the last option is the one most likely to be the correct answer, as the other ones don't really help talk about the <em>benefits </em>of a plant-based diet.  However, quizzes like this are fickle things so I can't promise this will be the correct answer. Good luck!
