III. The following paragraph contrasts the writer’s two cousins. Three major differences are identified, andeach of these is ill

ustrated with several specific examples. Read the paragraph and circle anytransitions. Then write the transitions in the appropriate blanks below.OppositesMy cousins Joanne and Mary couldn’t be more different. First, Joanne is a total nonconformist. For one thing, Joanne’s appearance is bizarre. For example, her hair is partially shaved and dyed pink, and she’s covered in tattoos. In addition, her favorite clothes are ripped and have pictures on them of things like skulls. Furthermore, Joanne has a wild personality. For instance, she’ll do outrageous things, like the time she got her nose pierced. Another time, she hitchhiked to San Francisco at 2:00 a.m. Finally, when it comes to interests, Joanne is really into music. She plays the guitar in a punk rock band, and she loves to go to clubs and concerts to check out other bands. In contrast, Mary is the total opposite of Joanne. For one thing, Mary’s appearance is very conservative. For instance, her naturally blond hair is usually in a ponytail, and her favorite clothes are sweats or a soccer uniform. Unlike Joanne, Mary is the type of person who likes to follow the rules. For example, she’s never missed a day of school, and she can be relied on to be the designated driver any time she goes out to a party. Finally, Mary is a jock. She plays almost every sport, but soccer is her favorite. When she’s not playing sports, she’s watching them on television or in person. Truly, if I didn’t already know that Joanne and Mary are cousins, I would never guess that they’re related to each other because they’re complete opposites.1.What three transitions introduce Joanne’s character traits: nonconformist, wild personality, interests?________________________________________ ______________________2.List two transitions used in describing Mary that show contrast:______________________ _______________________3.List two transitions used to introduce examples:______________________ _______________________4.List two transitions used to add another example:______________________ _______________________5.

Why do words with negative connotations have negative connotations?
kumpel [21]
In some cases like the word vice, the negative connotation stems from a direct definition of the word(vice means wicked, but another definition is 'a substitute for' so 'vice president'). In other cases, word may be used in a culture to identify a group or individual that is portrayed negatively, thus modifying the inherent definition of the word to better portray how society thinks of the word.
