Which of the following is NOT an advantage of learning to find the gist of a piece of text you are reading?

English

Georgia [21]3 years ago
3 0

You can eventually begin to skip over parts of passages as you read and still figure out what's going on in the writing.

Being able to get to the gist allows you to read more efficiently and more effectively. It allows you to read with purpose. Most people read by looking at every word, every sentence, every paragraph as its own independent piece.

Read the following excerpt from “The Gift of the Magi” and answer the question.
Ede4ka [16]

The type of conflict which is implied in the above passage is Person vs. Self.

In the short story “The Gift of Magi,” the American writer O. Henry speaks about the feeling of love and the emotions related to it. The couple Della and Jim are so much in love with each other that they would sacrifice anything for their partner to be happy. Since they are poor, they both fall short in arranging money for the Christmas gift. Della wanted to buy a platinum chain for Jim’s watch, but her savings were not enough for the gift. Della decided to sell off her long hair and buy a platinum chain for Jim's watch while Jim sold off her watch to buy a beautiful comb for Della's beautiful hair. The last scene of the story reflects on their love for each other which is beyond the materialistic nature of the world. Their sacrifice for each other made them the wisest people like Magi.

Answer:

Ok I am 12 so I will write what I would write

<u>The topic I choose is a deadly game.</u>

I felt my legs running away from my body. Everything was not as easy as A,B,C only God new I was lying between the devil and the deep blue sea. All that I remember is that I ran like a headless chicken trying to find my way out of the field, but it was no use because every time I tried I would end up as mashed potatoes.

I was owful in every step I took. It felt as if I was empty inside floating like a balloon which was let loose in a football field.

I went chrouching and crawling back to the changing room with only bones left on me.

According to Edgar Allan Poe in "The Philosophy of Composition," why are short poems preferable when it comes to "unity of impre
mihalych1998 [28]
In spring of 1846, Edgar Allan Poe (1809849) moved from New York City to his country cottage in Fordham where he wrote "The Philosophy of Composition," an essay that promises to recount the method he used to write his famous poem "The Raven" (1845). In the essay Poe challenges those who suggest that writing is a mysterious process prompted solely by the imagination. Although the it offers a number of precepts for good writing, at the end of the essay, Poe undercuts his step-by-step instructions by insisting that all writing should have an "under-current" of meaning. Because he never demonstrates how to create that "under-current," Poe's essay never completely reveals the process that makes his work so powerful.
