Answer:

In the Long Beach California School District, statistics show that school fights and violence went down by 74 percent after uniforms were introduced.

Explanation:

This sentence has redundancy because it repeats information twice. This is the information that is repeated:

In the Long Beach California School District, statistics show that school fights and violence went down by 74 percent after uniforms were introduced.

Note that<em> statistics </em>and <em>74 percent</em> mean the same thing. In other words, the  same information has been expressed twice in the paper.

An alternative will be re-writing the sentence like this:

  • In the Long Beach California School District,  school fights and violence went down by 74 percent after uniforms were introduced.

In the sentence above, the information is not repeated twice.

Speech for pro death penalty
Kitty [74]
I think you mean u need a speech for for death penalty so here:
We all have the right to a opinion especially when it come to what we’re for and against having to do with what we support. Well I support have death penalties, and some people may think why?,Those people did something bad they don’t deserves it though, I disagree, if you murder someone or you did something worse than that, why should we put you amongst people in jail, so that you can kill them too. You killed someone and you don’t deserve to stay alive. With death penalty we stop criminal from doing bad things over and over. If that means executing the worst criminals so be it, at the end of the day at we can feel safer know that person is gone and aren’t going to commit any more crimes. I hope this helps

Question 1:

Humorous passage 1: "It (the umbrella) was made to be carried on the arm like an enormous ornamental bat and to allow one the opportunity to put on British airs as the atmospheric conditions demanded."

Humorous passage 2: "(The umbrella is) An item to be carried in the street, to be used to startle friends and—in the worst of cases—to fend off one’s creditors."

Question 2:

Passage 1 is funny because it compares the umbrella to an ornamental bat, which sounds weird in the first place. Plus, the umbrellas is said to be used by people who want to seem British, which is even more outrageously funny.

Passage 2 is funny because it treats the umbrella as a scary object which can be used even to fend off people you owe money to, which is absurd.

In both passages, the author uses tone and voice in a very witty way: he speaks seriously about absurdity, about unimaginable stuff. It is like an encyclopedia of weird and fun facts. That is what makes it funny: the contrast between a serious tone and larger than life images.
