The correct answer to this open question is the following.
I am going to explore the environmental issues/attitudes that I see in the media, taking the case of the film "An Inconvenient Truth," produced by former Democratic candidate to the presidency of the United States, Al Gore.
The film, released in 2006, tries to create conscience about the difficult topic of the damage that humans are inflicting on the environment and how mother Earth tends to react when so much noise, air, and water pollution abounds on the planet. The central topic is global warming, and the film presents testimonials and statistics about the increasing pollution levels in most parts of the earth and the damage industries and means of transportation causes the planet due to carbon dioxide.
Other pieces of literature support these concerns, meanwhile, the Bible warned of the kind of destruction that was created in the past if we sin and do not respect nature as a creation of God.
Answer:
A. Securely
B. "...no way in the world can you get rid of the nasty hard thing..."
Explanation:
A. The word fast in this context means securely. For example, if I held my money fast it would mean that I clutched it tightly to make sure nothing could happen to it.
B. This quotation shows that the harness was held securely on the horse, since he couldn't get it off.
The change that was made in the second sentence is that it created a compound sentence. The correct answer is option B. The compound subject now has two independent clauses: "The holidays are just around the corner" and "I need to go shopping". The independent clauses are connected with the coordinating conjunction "so".
Connotation is the emotion or idea that is associated with a word.
The English Parliament had controlled colonial trades, imports and exports since the beginning. But the americans weren't represented in the Parliament, so this went against the Bill of Rights of 1689, which forbid the imposition of taxes without the Parliament's approval. The increasing imposition of taxes in the second half of 18th century harmed the colonies' trade and economy, paying for wars on the other side of the Atlantic that had very little to do with them. So, they denied to keep paying for taxes unless they got direct representation in the Parliament. With this, the inhabitants of the colonies were claiming their equality with the inhabitants of the metropolis. It eventually led to the American Revolution, since the English government refused to listen to the colonies' demands.
The notion of "no taxation without representation" tied the colonies together against a common enemy, setting the foundations of what it would become the United States of America.
