Letter to the editor: Proposition Q, a controversial measure on this year’s ballot, would prohibit the ownership of handguns within the city’s limits. Under the plan, gun owners would have a 90-day grace period to turn in their weapons to authorities. Proponents of the proposition argue that fewer handguns on the streets would lead to less violent crime, making the city safer for all of its citizens. Unfortunately, the ban would actually have the opposite effect. Since only law abiding citizens would honor the ban, armed criminals would not only keep their weapons but would also have the confidence to act with impunity on a population that could no longer defend itself.
In the letter to the editor, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?
(A) The first is an observation that the author uses to support a particular position; the second is that position.
(B) The first is a pattern of cause and effect that the author believes to be true; the second offers evidence to contradict this pattern.
(C) The first is a position that the author argues will not hold in this case; the second is the author’s position.
(D) The first is a prediction that the author believes to be untrue. The second is a statement of fact that undermines the author’s position.
(E) The first is a direct relationship that the author believes will not hold in this case; the second offers evidence in support of the author’s position.

Answers

Answer:

(E) The first is a direct relationship that the author believes will not hold in this case; the second offers evidence in support of author's position.

Explanation:

The ban will result in opposite effects so the second bold face is not in the position. The cause and effect are not supported by the author. They are argued and criticized by the author. The author has tried to convey his thoughts about the crimes that are prevailing in the country.

The troll brought the coal for the mole near the pole.David Dudsen didn't dive down into the deep end

Answers

Answer:

The troll brought the coal for the mole near the pole. Assonance.

David Dudsen didn't dive down into the deep end. Alliteration.

Explanation:

Sound devices are literary or poetic elements that emphasize sounds. These sound devices may be of different types- alliteration, onomatopoeia, assonance, rhyme scheme, rhythm, etc.

The given sentences are described and identified as follows-

1. "The troll brought the coal for the mole near the pole" is assonance. Assonance is the repetition of a vowel sound in close succession in a sentence or a phrase. And in this sentence, the repetition is seen in the words "troll, coal, mole, pole."

2. The sentence "David Dudsen didn't dive down into the deep end" uses alliteration. Now, alliteration is the repetition of the first consonant letter of a word in succession. And in this sentence, the alliteration is seen in the words "David Dudsen didn't dive down ... deep..." The repetition is in the letter "d".

Read the sentence: "You don't have to reimburse
me for dinner it's my treat."
Which option shows the best place to add a
semicolon to the sentence?
Select one:

Answers

The correct answer is D. You don't have to reimburse me for dinner; it's my treat.

Explanation

The semicolon (;) is a punctuation mark made up of a period superimposed on a comma. Experts consider the use of this sign to be subjective. One of its main uses is to separate sentences with semantic relationships, which is used when two sentences are joined without a conjunction. An example of this is "You don't have to reimburse me for dinner; it's my treat" because it is separating two sentences that do not have conjunction that relates them, but that are related. So the correct answer is D. You don't have to reimburse me for dinner; it's my treat.
