The answer choices to this question are in the attached file. The effect of the word "surplice" is:

A. It reinforces the difference between the natural things the speaker holds dear and the rituals of the church.

  • "Some Keep the Sabbath Going to Church" is a poem by Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) in which the speaker talks about keeping the Sabbath.
  • When the speaker mentions the "surplice," the garment worn by the clergy, she is emphasizing the difference of her Sabbath to other people's Sabbath.
  • The speaker prefers to stay at home, with her family and her garden. To her, staying at home is Heaven already.
  • Other people "keep the Sabbath in Surplice," that is, would rather go to church to secure their place in Heaven when they die.
  • In other words, the speaker is already in Heaven, while others only wish to be.
  • In conclusion, the word "surplice" reinforces the difference between the natural things (garden, family) that the speaker holds dear and the rituals of the church.

Read the excerpt from “Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry.”
kompoz [17]

Answer:

The option that best describes how Anaya effectively uses rhetoric in the excerpt to convince readers that his conclusion is justified is:

B) Anaya establishes his credibility as a published Chicano author by discussing his career experience.

Explanation:

Rhetoric concerns the use of devices and strategies to convince the audience of your opinion or perspective. A commonly efficient way to do so is by establishing your own credibility concerning the subject. That is what Anaya is doing in this excerpt. He gets to talk about language and culture in American literature, and be taken seriously while doing it, due to his credibility as a published Chicano author. His life and career are devoted and dependent on this subject, which gives him some sort of authority to discuss it.

In paragraph 5, Hitchcock says that an audience “will work like the devil” for him if he tells them all the secrets his characte
erica [24]

Hithcock believes that his audience is moved to the suspense that is affected by the characters, but they like to "play God" and have access to the information before them. Thus Hitchcock states that by showing the public the secrets that the characters do not know, the audience is motivated and anxious to know how these stories will come about and will work hard to disseminate and leaflet the stories for other people to know about them.

This sentence shows how Hitchcock's stories grow and flourish over time, being his purpose for writing, creating stories that are not outdated, as the exciting thing is to see their unfolding and not a possible surprise.

1. State the reasons for the US declaration of war against Spain.
Ann [662]

Answer:

On April 24,1898, Spain declared war on the U.S. Goals during the war were to end Spanish colonial rule in the Americas and U.S expansion into the western pacific and Latin American territories. The U.S won because of their large, skilled army and naval forces and the Spanish surrendered.

Explanation:

During the late 1800s, there were three main causes of the Spanish-American War, each one pushing the U.S to declare war.  These causes are Cuba wanting their independence from Spain.  The growing American imperialism and the sinking of the battleship the Maine were also cause of the war. American Imperialism was another cause of the United States becoming involved in the war.   The imperialism was supported by the Manifest Destiny, which is “a belief that territorial expansion by the United States was both inevitable and divinely ordained.
