The reason that the author makes the given text <em>parenthetical</em> is<em> to add emphasis and make clear his point.</em>

A parenthetical statement serves the following purposes:

  • it explains a previous statement
  • it qualifies something
  • it adds clarity to a sentence
  • it gives extra information that may not be essential.

Thus, parenthesis is usually employed in speeches and texts to give more meaning and extra information, where it is considered appropriate.

True [87]

Answer:

Semantic vs. Episodic Memory

Explanation:

Semantic memory is an organized record of knowledge, meanings, facts and concepts about the world. Semantic is about simple knowledge, which includes types of dress, food, social etiquette, etc.

Episodic memory is about our memory of a person's experiences of specific events or incidents in time in a serial form. This memory is autobiographical in nature and includes places, times, and emotions.

In this case, remembering birth day is semantic memory while what actually happened on the last birth day is episodic memory.

The idiom "under the weather" means to feel ill. Why might this phrase be confusing to Waverly's mother?
Phoenix [80]

Amy Tan (author of the Joy Luck Club) has written an absolutely terrific piece on what a well educated daughter (Tan) thinks of her mother's "spirited" English. It is an essay that is a masterpiece of its kind.

She explains in detail why her mother's English and how it is written doesn't matter. Her mother has other qualities that her language emphasizes. What matters is how well her mother is able to express herself ignoring all the usual rules of syntax.

From Tan's description, I have to say that C is the best answer.

If the lady speaks only Chinese, the meaning of the phrase means absolutely nothing. It is just sounds. D is wrong.

B is possible, but it would not be true for every idiomatic phrase. So I wouldn't pick B.

A has the same problem as D. I would stick with C
