Answer:

A: It does not convey to power and immensity of the idea.

Explanation:

The given question refers to the essay <em>Love's Vocabulary</em> by Diane Ackerman.

<em>How can love’s spaciousness be conveyed in the narrow confines of one syllable? </em>-<em> </em>asks the author. She discusses the origin of the word, and how people use it: <em>We use the word love in such a sloppy way that it can mean almost nothing or absolutely everything.</em>

The problem is not that the word <em>love </em>consists of only one syllable, but that such a powerful, diverse feeling is difficult to describe. One word is not enough to convey its power, and the way people use it is not appropriate.

Thus, the correct answer is A.

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

June 2nd

Today when I was going to school, I saw some kids bullying a defenseless kitten. It was alone and desperately crying for its mother. The kids were scaring it, jumping near it, or passing it through the air from one kid to the other. I got mad and stepped in front of the kitten, and in an angry tone, I told them to leave the kitten alone. As I was older than them, they immediately obeyed me. When I came back from school, I picked it. Now it lives with me.

Explanation:

In a diary entry, a person writes about an experience,  feelings, things that he or she likes or dislikes, goals, reflections, and problems. It usually has a date. The entries can be daily or sporadically, every person has a different way to use a diary, and they are not to share with other people.

As regards the language, it is informal. The entry can be directed to the diary, starting with dear diary, as if it was a letter, or it can be a narrative where the person writes about an experience or thoughts.
