THE BLUE-EYED, BROWN-EYED EXERCISE by CommonLit Staff

English
1 answer:
lys-0071 [83]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

1. Jane Elliot separated the group of blue eyed students from the brown eye students.

"On that first day of the exercise, she designated the blue-eyed children as the superior group. Elliott provided brown fabric collars and asked the blue-eyed students to wrap them around the necks of their brown-eyed peers as a method to easily identify the minority group"

2. She gave the blue eyed children extra privileges.

"She gave the blue-eyed children extra privileges, such as second helpings at lunch, access to the new jungle gym, and five extra minutes at recess. The blue-eyed children sat in the front of the classroom, and the brown-eyed children were sent to sit in the back rows"

3. She highlighted negative aspects of brown eyed children.

"She often exemplified the differences between the two groups by singling out students and would use negative aspects of brown-eyed children to emphasize a point"

Explanation:

From the the above elements Jane Elliot used to demonstrate the experiences of African Americans during the Civil Rights Movement, they are all similar experiences the blacks faced during that era.

1. There was heavy segregation: the blacks were not allowed to go to the same schools with whites, they were not allowed to enter the same bus, they lived in a different part of town from whites.

2. The whites had extra privileges, they were allowed to vote, they were allowed to become pilots while the blacks had no access to this.

3. The whites would magnify the negative aspects of blacks in the society and using the wrongdoings of a minority to judge how all blacks behave.

Which is the best way to fix the incorrect parallel structure in the sentence
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

A) Change the verbs to be consistent "ran, shopped and ate".

Explanation:

Faulty parallel structure is when there are discrepancies or errors in the form or structure of a sentence. This error can be in the form of tenses or their structuring.

In the given sentence <em>"Last weekend, Constanza ran, went shopping and was eating an apple"</em>, the faulty parallel structure is in the tense. This means that the tenses used for the verbs in the sentence are not the same. Taking into consideration the time frame of the event mentioned, it is an event that was done in the past, "last weekend" which therefore confirms it should be in the past tense. Now, the verbs in the sentence "ran, went shopping, was eating" are not consistent.

So, by changing all of them to the past tense form consistent with "ran", we can <u>change "went shopping" to "shopped" and "was eating" into "ate", meaning from past continuous to simple past.</u>

Thus, the correct answer to fix the faulty parallel structure will be option A.
