Which sentence best fits at the beginning of this paragraph?
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

You displayed a depth of knowledge in your initial interviews that is extremely impressive.

Explanation

"We are happy to let you know that we that we think you're pretty clever." Is informal and based on this message it does not fit.

"Our intention at this juncture is to scrutinize your intellectual capacity and creative prowess" Is very words and seems a bit excessive. It doesn't match other parts of the assignment.

"You seem way smarter than a lot of people." Doesn't fit the formality at all.

Therefore "You displayed a depth of knowledge in you initial interviews that is extremely impressive" is the best way to go.

Reread the description of Oliver's home
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Woolf's word choices that suggests that Oliver is preoccupied with how others see him is "looked down"

Below is an excerpt:

<em>"...And from the middle window he </em><em>looked down </em><em>upon the glossy roofs of fashionable cars packed in the narrow straits of Piccadilly."</em>

This suggests that he had a sense of how others see him. The same word choices that revealed that he is preoccupied with how others see him is also seen in line 16 of "The Duchess And The Jeweller":

<em> "...and he would </em><em>look down</em><em> at his legs, so shapely in their perfect trousers; at his boots; at his spats.  They were all shapely, shining;..."</em>

Explanation:

The question is culled from "The Duchess And The Jeweller" written by Virginia Woolf.

The short story is centered on a jeweller known as Oliver Bacon who is the only developed character. The story has a reflection of the English society as seen during Woolf's time.  The jeweller, Oliver is seen as an ambitious and arrogant man. He became one of the high-ups in the society and lived at Piccadilly, the most expensive place in London.

Adeline Virginia Woolf is the author of "The Duchess And The Jeweller". She is an English writer who is considered to have pioneered and led the use of stream of consciousness as a narrative device.

What is the purpose of lobbying?.
Rasek [7]

In order to sway a decision about a legislative or administrative action, lobbying is the practice of directly approaching or encouraging others to approach a member of the legislative, executive, or quasi-public bodies of government.

  • It encompasses any efforts made by people, organized organizations, or other lawmakers to sway lawmakers and authorities. "Lobbying" (also spelled "lobby") is a form of advocacy with the intention of influencing decisions made by the government by individuals or more commonly by lobby groups.
  • In a letter to a member of Congress, a Duke official requests that they abstain from voting on an amendment that would be presented during the bill's discussion. This is lobbying since it offers a viewpoint on a specific piece of legislation.

Thus this is the purpose of lobbying.
