b. Paralanguage
c .Vocal Segregates
d. Illustrators
Answer:
The correct answer is option b. Paralanguage
.
Explanation:
The paralanguage is used as a form of communication to reinforce a message.
The idea is to give more strength to the message that the sender wants to convey, by using body expressions and different nuances in the voice, thus being able to add more expressions and conviction to the message.
It is a form of<u> non-verbal communication</u> since the message is not transmitted with words but with expressions and body gestures. While no words are used, it is still a form of communication.
Given this information we can say that the correct answer is option B. Paralanguage.
Answer:
Wright was apparently hurt and unhappy when reflecting on his father's past dealings with him.
Explanation:
The excerpt portrayed Wright's father as a person who did not truly treat him lovingly during his younger days. This can be found in the sentence where he talked about his 'fearsome aspect of twenty five years ago'. Old age apparently made his father vulnerable according to his descriptions such as his 'bent body', and him 'smiling toothlessly'. This was not the way his father was during his younger days.
Wright also talked about some scalding experiences which swept him beyond his life. These scalding experiences may have been caused by his father.
