Select The Correct Answer.What Theme Is The Author Developing When Junior Says, "I Felt Like A Magician

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B.  A person's identity can be different in different social situations.

Explanation:

The semi-autobiographical novel "The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian" by Sherman Alexie tells the story of a young budding cartoonist Junior. Junior grew up in the Spokane Indian Reservation but had to attend an all-white school to pursue his dream.

As given in the excerpt, Junior reveals he "felt like a magician slicing myself in half", with "Junior living on the north side of the Spokane River and Arnold living on the south." His dilemma is in the split identity he had to maintain, inside and outside of the school. This follows the theme of how a person's identity can be different for different situations.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

Which excerpt is an example of logos in Kennedy's address at Rice University?

Answers

Answer:

D. [W]e shall send to the moon, 240,000 miles away from the control station in Houston, a giant rocket more than 300 feet tall.

Explanation:

Option D is the correct answer.

Logos is a sense of reasoning used to persuade an audience through the use of facts, figures, statistical data, analogies, etc.

From the above option, we discover that Kennedy uses facts and figures to appeal to the mind of his audience. He showed them the distance of the moon from the control station and also gave the length of the rocket that will sent out to space. These figures actually appeal to the audience's sense of reasoning.

Read the section "The Colla Are Kicked Out." Which sentence from the section shows WHY the Inca wanted to take over the Titicaca region?

Answers

Answer:

"If the Inca king could not conquer the Titicaca lords who owned these vast herds, he could never be safe."

Explanation:

This question is about the article "Lofty Ambitions of the Inca" where the authors explore the history of the Incas, the region they dominated, the people they conquered and the activities they carried out. One of the sections of the article features the title "The Colla Are Kicked Out" where it shows that the Collas were the dominators of Titicaca, which was a land full of riches and with large herds of islands and alpacas that are extremely strong animals and that can be used in several ways. The titicaca gave the Collas a lot of power and that undermined the security and influence of the Incas, which caused King Inca to decide to dominate the Titicaca. We can see this in the article through the line:

"If the Inca king could not conquer the Titicaca lords who owned these vast herds, he could never be safe."

Review lennox's speech in lines 1-20 of scene 6. What words and phrases in this speech convey an ironic tone?

Answers

Answer:

The phrases that convey the ironic tone are:

My former speeches have but hit your thoughts,Which can interpret farther. The gracious Duncan Was pitied of Macbeth: marry, he was dead.

Explanation:

This question is about "Macbeth" a play written by Shakespeare that shows how Macbeth usurped the throne of King Duncan who was also his personal friend and the consequences that this attitude led.

Lennox's speech is a great example of verbal irony, where Lennox is extremely sarcastic while presenting the hostility he felt towards the nobles who were listening to him.

We can see this sarcasm in the lines:

My former speeches have but hit your thoughts, Which can interpret farther: Where Lennox says that the nobles can interpret his words, however they want, however, he knows that there is only one conclusion and one interpretation of his speech, which means that the nobles agree with all his words. The gracious Duncan Was pitied of Macbeth: marry, he was dead: Where he mocks Macbeth's suffering and grief over Duncan's death. He claims that Macbeth suffered so much for the death of his friend, that he killed him himself, so that he could have a worthy mourning.

The states created in the Declaration of Independence in 1776 were limited in size. As the population increased, more people were competing for the same amount of land. Consequently, land became more expensive, and overcrowding became an issue. The thirteen states were bordered by the Atlantic Ocean and the territories of other nations. If the United States was going to have a future, it needed to increase its territory.President Thomas Jefferson believed that for Americans to be virtuous and free, they needed to farm land. He wanted to expand westward to create more farmland. Jefferson also wanted to obtain the Port of New Orleans at the mouth of the Mississippi River so farmers could easily transport their goods. He facilitated the purchase of New Orleans and the rest of the French territory from France in 1803 for $15 million. This new land was called the Louisiana Territory and stretched partway across the continent. It was the first step in expanding the United States.USA is shown and different areas are highlighted. The east coast region is highlighted first and shows 1776, the middle east is highlighted next and shows 1803, the mid north and all of the east is highlighted third and 1821 is highlighted. Then all of the middle and east areas are highlighted and 1845 is shown. Next the north west area is highlighted and 1846 is shown. Then the south west area is highlighted and 1848 is shown. Last, the south part of Arizona is highlighted and shows 1853.The purchase of the Louisiana Territory led to a pattern of westward expansion through payment, negotiations, and conflict. The United States purchased Florida from Spain with the Florida Purchase Treaty of 1821. Instead of paying Spain a set amount, the United States would pay the $5 million Americans claimed were owed to them by Spain. After Texas declared independence from Mexico, it was annexed by the United States and became an official state in 1845. Another land controversy occurred between Great Britain and the United States, as both countries claimed the Oregon region. The dispute was settled in the 1846 Oregon Treaty, which separated the countries by the line of the 49th parallel. Mexico refused to let the United States buy California and New Mexico, so the two countries eventually went to war. Because the Americans won the war, the United States was able to buy lands in the Southwest in 1848. The United States paid Mexico $10 million for an area of land in the Southwest in the 1853 Gadsden Purchase, stretching its borders from sea to sea.(the map is the text feature btw)According to information in the text feature, in what year did the United States officially obtain land with access to the Pacific Ocean? a1821 b1845 c1846 d1848 Can someone please help me with this one Which statements are true about the expression that y +92 Choose ALL that apply. 1.
