Why does the author of passage 2 describe a student council meeting in the first paragraph? ​

English

IRISSAK [1]3 years ago

Answer:

skimming the passage, we’ll find “some critics” mentioned in the third sentence. Indeed, this sentence actually continues to advance Bigsby’s view mentioned in the previous sentence (that Hansberry’s work has “unintentional” irony” that the author seems to reject (stating that we should accept her irony as “deliberate social commentaries”). This third sentence continues to elaborate and broaden the critical view to other critics. The next sentence contains the words “for example,” so that must be the one, right?! Nope. This is the trap; the question specifically mentioned “examples” ad does this fourth sentence of the paragraph, but the “examples” need to refute this view, and the example in the fourth sentence is an example of the critical view the author disagreed with.

Explanation:

An important thing to keep in mind about the Reading Comprehension section of the GRE as we use PowerPrep online to study is that it is just that—reading comprehension. In other words, as difficult as it may seem, and it can be pretty tricky, the test makers will always give us all the information we need in the passage to answer the question. Select-in-passage questions, like number 8 on the second Verbal section of practice test 1, may look different than other questions, but they abide by the same rule.

Select-in-passage questions are unique to the GRE, but that shouldn’t scare us. In fact, a good thing about them is that we can approach each one the same way: we need to read the question carefully in order to find out what criteria our sentence needs to meet. Then, we need to search the passage for a sentence that fits that criteria—ok, admittedly this is sometimes more easily said than done, but we should keep in mind that our question may even give us extra clues as to where to look.

How does your relationship with others influence the way you communicate with them?​
guapka [62]

Our relationships with others influence how we communicate with them by many different factors. The relationship between people influence the way we interact with them. Giving hugs is generally for people you are close to, although you may shake someone's hand if you are not as close to them.

Good communication is an important part of all relationships and is an essential part of any healthy partnership. All relationships have ups and downs, but a healthy communication style can make it easier to deal with conflict and build a stronger and healthier partnership. We often hear how important communication is, but not what it is and how we can use good communication in our relationships.  The way they talk about life and how they deal with there ideas

Hope this helps and if you could mark me as brainliest. Thanks!
