Critical refers to an analysis of something on the merits, demerits and faults. The second and last statements are clear examples of critical statement.

PLEASE HELLPPPP The town of Madisonville, Texas was hit by a strong storm in late July. Most of the city lost power for several hours, and damage was severe in parts of the city. The Lakeside Cafe, famous for its misspelled sign saying, “Chicken-Fried Stake,” lost its roof in the storm. Amazingly, no employees or customers were injured. John Paxton, who was eating in the restaurant at the time, said, “They told us there was no way to know if it was a tornado or not. Well, I’ve never seen this kind of damage from anything but a tornado.”
Fallen limbs and downed power lines were also common problems across the city, blocking passage down dozens of streets. Crews worked for days without pause to restore power and to cut and haul away large limbs. With many businesses closed until power could be restored, hundreds of local residents found themselves stuck at home without electricity and therefore without air conditioning. Local woman Sally H. was sitting on her front porch, fanning herself with a shoe catalog. “It’s hot,” she said. “Normally, I would enjoy a day off of work, but this isn’t a normal day off.”
The hospital was able to stay open and powered by electricity generators. Furman Simms, working the front desk, said it seemed almost like a normal day. “We saw more people today than usual,” he explained, “but it wasn’t bad. We never ran out of beds. I expected it to be a lot busier.”The reader can infer that hundreds of Madisonville residents were probably
A.
glad they had generators.
B.
helped haul away tree limbs.
C.
enjoyed not going to work.
D.
not happy to be at home.

Answer: D

Explanation:

In the poem i know why the caged bird sing how does the poet described the world of nature​

Answers

Answer:

The poet described the world of nature in two ways: it's something fun and exciting for the free bird (the white people) while it's something painful and sad for the caged bird (the black people). For example, the first verse shows what the free bird can do with all his freedom. He can enjoy everything around him to the point that he becomes selfish that he "dares to claim the sky." On the other hand, the caged bird feels scared because he doesn't know so much due to his imprisonment. He feels like everything is a nightmare and all he ever wishes for is his freedom.

Explanation:

"I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings" is a poem written by Maya Angelou, a poet who grew up in Arkansas. This poem is related to Maya's autobiography where she wrote all the trauma she encountered from childhood until she grew up. During her time, racism was very common and she was able to experience what it felt like being a "caged bird."

Answer: The difference between writing emotion and writing feeling is more one of degree than kind. Feeling is emotion that has been habituated and refined; it is understood and can be used deliberately. I know how I feel about this person and treat her accordingly. Emotion is more raw, unconsidered. It comes to us unbidden, regardless of how familiar it might be. Rage is an emotion. Contempt is a feeling.

Both emotion and feeling are essential not only in fiction but in nonfiction. However, given their unique qualities, rendering them on the page requires different techniques.

Both rely upon understanding what readers want. People don’t turn to stories to experience what you, the writer, have experienced—or even what your characters have. They read to have their own experience. Our job is to create a series of effects to facilitate and enhance that experience.

What is the meaning of the foreign expression in bold? The Army Art Program began during World War I as a way to record history and boost morale. As part of the artist-in-residence program, eight soldier-artists were given carte blanche to use any style or medium they desired to create art depicting the lives of American soldiers.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Since this question has no options, I will offer a general explanation of the foreign expression.

The sentence we are analyzing here presents the French expression "carte blanche". Giving someone carte blanche means giving them total freedom to do something. For example: Mr. Johnson gave us carte blanche to choose the theme for our final paper.

In the passage, we are told "eight soldier-artists were given carte blanche". That means they were free to do whatever they chose to; they were free to use "any style or medium" they wanted.

Both articlesinclude the fact that fact that electic cars are powered by rechargeable batteries. How does"Car Tunes" interpret this fact differently?

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You did not include the articles for reference, neither the options for this question. However, doing some research we can say the following.

"Car Tunes" can be interpreted this fact differently in that "It states only the benefit of plugging in the battery to power up.".

One of the most important ideas of the articles is that people have to understand the benefits of Eco-friendly machines that do not harm the environment and uses a "green" form of energy that benefits nature.

Traditional forms of energy such as the combustion of oil, fossil fuels, really damage the environment and create air pollution and water pollution. Some scientists think both are direct causes of climate change that is affecting our planet at this precise moment. That is why the planet has to invest more in these kinds of "alternative forms of energy."

Answer:

It states only the benefit of plugging in the battery to power up.
