Story : A Dog’s Tale by Mark Twain

4. Read this sentence from the selection.

“Whenever she heard a large word she said it over to herself many times, and so was able to keep it until there was a dogmatic gathering in the neighborhood.”

In this sentence the word dogmatic is used as —

• an insightful simile
• a descriptive metaphor
• a humorous play on words
• an illuminating allusion


5. In the last paragraph the narrator says his mother would “fetch out a long word.” The connotations of the word fetch remind the reader that the narrator’s mother —

• is well educated
• is a dog
• knows lots of big words
• likes to show off


8. What is ironic about the author’s mother showing off with her knowledge of the word unintellectual?

• Her child knew she didn’t understand the word correctly.

• The strangers all already knew the meaning of the word.

• As any intellectual would know, the word should be “nonintellectual.”

• She did not know any synonyms for the word.


9. Which type of person is most like the author’s mother?

• A high-performing student with an excellent memory for words

• A very verbal person who always has a quick answer that sounds good

• A dishonest person who tells lies on a regular basis

• A person who likes dogs a lot and works at a veterinary clinic

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

Order of ideas, tone, and punctuation and phrasing could be revised.

Explanation:

It is known that when giving a presentation or writing an essay, the speaker should convince the public little by little, providing evidence that will support the final hypothesis, in this case, how great Roosevelt was. Due to this, the beginning would be: "Theodore Roosevelt was a great president because..."

Punctuation and phrasing are other issues in the paragraph. Some sentences are too long and carry a lot of information that could be overwhelming for the reader (specially for such a short paragraph.) In example, the phrase "he brought about much-needed social, political, and economic reform" could be written again: "his impact could be seen in almost every aspect of the country, such as in politics, economics, and in society in general."

The first statement could be at the end, like "an equal share of opportunities. Due to this, Roosevelt is the greatest president."

Tone is also important because it seems to be part of an essay or a presentation, so words like "broke up" could be changed for more proper ones.

Write a paragraph about your late grandmother. NO COPYING. It must be high school worthy. Plus I'll give the BRAINLIEST to the b
siniylev [52]
Here is a paragraph based on your question:
I haven’t met my late grandmother throughout my life. I wish that I could’ve met her because she symbolizes so much for me. At my early childhood, my parents would talk about her and her prodigious journey of becoming who she really is. She was a woman with great heart and great compassion, and a microcosm for all women. She never had much freedom around her life since my late grandfather actually forced her to be with him. But everyday, she will grow stronger and stronger and extend through the line of Mother Earth. A great example of those who have been virtuous to many of her people. I could’ve met her but she has been deceased. However, no one will ever erase the memory of an old picture from their head for it will fly away forever.

This a paragraph about my late grandmother. Hope this helps :)

Read the excerpts from The Namesake.
anzhelika [568]

Both conflicts are related to confusion over Gogol’s two names.

In the first excerpt it is about how Gogol has two names, Nikhil and Gogol. Gogol is a pet name used by his family while Nikhil is his "good name". Nikhil is his more formal name and should be the one used at school. However, since Gogol was put on his birth certificate, the school must register him using his legal name.

Webster, Worcester, and Bouvier all define a citizen to be a person in the United States, entitled to vote and hold office.
BabaBlast [244]

Answer: by mentioning the idea that women are not people

Explanation:

A citizen is a person in the United states and yet women were people in the United States but still could not vote. Susan Anthony is therefore asking if women were not people as well because only that would explain why they did not have the right to vote.

In saying this she connected with the emotions of women who in being made to feel like second-class citizens did not feel like they were people.
