Read the excerpt below and answer the question.
A slave warehouse! Perhaps some of my readers conjure up horrible visions of such a place. They fancy some foul, obscure den, some horrible Tartarus "infromis, ingens, cui lumen ademptum." But no, innocent friend; in these days men have learned the art of sinning expertly and genteelly, so as not to shock the eyes and sense of respectable society. Human property is high in the market; and is, therefore, well fed, well cleaned, tended, and looked after, that it may come to sale sleek, and strong, and shining. A slave-warehouse in New Orleans is a house externally not much unlike many others, kept with neatness; and where every day you may see arranged, under sort of shed along the outside, rows of men and women, who stand there as a sign of the property sold within.
Then you shall be courteously entreated to call and examine, and shall find an abundance of husbands, wives, brothers, sisters, fathers, mothers, and young children, to be "sold separately, or in lots to suit the convenience of the purchaser;" and that soul immortal, once bought with blood and anguish by the Son of God, when the earth shook, and the rocks rent, and the graves were opened, can be sold, leased, mortgaged, exchanged for groceries or dry goods, to suit the phases of trade, or the fancy of the purchaser.
Discuss how the author uses verbal irony in the passage above. Use specific evidence. Your response should be at least 150 words long.
Answer:
The author uses verbal irony in that they describe the sellers of slaves as 'sinning expertly and genteelly, so as not to shock the eyes and sense of respectable society'. The author describes a horrific act as being performed efficiently and neatly. They tell of how you would be 'courteously entreated to call and examine, and...find an abundance of husbands, wives, brothers, sisters, fathers, mothers, and young children, to be "sold separately, or in lots to suit the convenience of the purchaser.' They also provide verbal irony in stating that "{the} soul immortal, once bought with blood and anguish by the Son of God, when the earth shook, and the rocks rent, and the graves were opened, can be sold, leased, mortgaged, exchanged for groceries or dry goods, to suit the phases of trade, or the fancy of the purchaser", They proceed with a complex and heavy description of the saving of human souls, and contrast it with the simple measures necessary to purchase slaves.
Her blond hair was a silk sheet flowing down her back.
What does the sentence tell the reader about Tina?
A
She enjoys brushing her long, blond hair.
B
Her hair is smooth, straight, and long.
C
Her back is very straight when she stands.
D
She has a silk sheet hanging from head.
B). Her hair is smooth, straight, and long.
A few key words helps us understand that her hair is smooth, straight, and long. These are “silk”, “sheet”, and “flowing down her back”.
“Silk” helps us imagine the hair as smooth, and soft.
“Sheet” and “flowing down her back” helps us imagine it as long, and straight down her back.
Why it isn’t the other answers:
A). Although she might enjoy brushing her hair, in no way is it mentioned in the sentence.
C). This one puts the main subject on her back, which the sentence is describing her hair.
D). The sentence is describing her hair, as stated “Her blond hair...”. This choice would be taking the description too literally, and ignoring that her hair is the main subject.
Answer:
B. her hair is smooth, straight, and long.
Explanation:
"silk" is often used to describe something smooth or soft
"sheet" gives you the visual of something straight.
"flowing down her back" means her hair must be long if it touches her back

Sanjay: How do good writers make sure their essays are appropriate for their audience?
Answer:
Explanation:
Termes indiquant le thème général : « réflexion […] sur la condition de l’homme ». Ils renvoient de façon très vaste à la question de l’homme mais mettent aussi sur la voie de la littérature d’idées (éventuellement engagée).
Termes indiquant sur quelle « matière » doit porter la réflexion : « œuvres littéraires », c’est-à-dire les textes qui témoignent d’un travail sur la langue et les mots et d’une mise en « forme » (cela exclut les textes de « consommation », les textes scientifiques ou techniques).
La perspective à adopter se trouve dans « efficace », c’est-à-dire qui atteint son objectif, qui est adapté (à son public).
« En quoi » suggère de chercher pourquoi la littérature est efficace, donc d’analyser ses atouts, mais de chercher aussi ses moyens spécifiques.
La problématique est donc : Pourquoi, comment la littérature est-elle efficace pour (faire) réfléchir sur l’homme, exprimer une thèse/des idées, pour argumenter, convaincre ou persuader ?
Vous pouvez éventuellement dépasser ce questionnement et vous demander à quelles conditions la littérature est efficace, si elle ne présente pas des limites ou si elle est suffisante pour faire réfléchir et traiter de la condition de l’homme.
Answer:
Elijah: Good writers will think about the purpose of their essay and consider the intended audience who will read it. If the audience includes experts on the topic, the essay can be very technical. If the audience includes people with no knowledge of the topic, the writer should explain technical terms and concepts the audience may not understand.

Why is prince Albert hesitant about going to speech therapy? How is Lionel Logue different from other speech therapists Prince Albert has tried? Why do you think Prince Albert decided to return to Logue for help?
Prince Albert is hesitant to go into speech therapy because he feels he is too old to achieve a cure for his problem. Logue is different from other therapists in that he does not use extravagant methods and seeks to help patients psychologically. Prince Albert decides to turn to Logue for help because he was not successful with other therapists.
We can arrive at this answer because:
Prince Albert had a stuttering problem.This greatly affected his self-esteem, mainly because he had already sought out many therapists who could not help him.He no longer wanted to look for therapists mainly because he knew it weakened his position and allowed jokes about him to be made.However, he decided to try the methods of the therapist Lionel Logue, which were effective, simple and sought to understand the mental health and psychological state of the patient.
Although Albert was not completely cured, but the treatment was very effective.

"I'm p-paralyzed with happiness. ill Which literary device does this passage best exemplify? A. Paradox B. Sarcasm C. Understatement D. Repetition
Answer:
b
Explanation:
The literary device that the passage best exemplifies is a paradox. The correct option is a.
What is a paradox?A paradox is a logically self-contradictory statement or a statement that runs contrary to one's expectation. It is a statement that, despite apparently valid reasoning from true premises, leads to a seemingly self-contradictory or logically unacceptable conclusion.
A paradox usually involves contradictory-yet-interrelated elements that exist simultaneously and persist over time. They result in "persistent contradiction between interdependent elements" leading to a lasting "unity of opposites". In logic, many paradoxes exist that are known to be invalid arguments, yet are nevertheless valuable in promoting critical thinking, while other paradoxes have revealed errors in definitions that were assumed to be rigorous, and have caused axioms of mathematics and logic to be re-examined.
In common usage, the word paradox often refers to statements that are ironic or unexpected, such as the paradox that standing is more tiring than walking.

Read this following passage about Christopher Reeve.
Christopher Reeve was born on September 25, 1952, in New York City. His mother was a journalist, and his father was a professor. As a kid he played sports, did well in school, and liked acting. His passion for acting goes back to playing with his brother when they were little. Reeve acted in his first play at the age of nine. After attending college, taking acting classes, and acting in many plays and movies, Reeve landed his biggest role. In 1978, he played the title role in Superman. He received very positive reviews for his performance and starred as Superman in all the sequels. Reeve was soon acting as the lead role in dozens of movies after Superman. Once well-known, Reeve used his celebrity status for good causes, such as visiting very sick children through the Make-A-Wish foundation. He was also a track and field coach at the Special Olympics.
Besides acting, Reeve was also a licensed pilot and liked horseback riding. He learned to ride horses for a movie role, and he continued riding in his free time. Unfortunately, while riding one day in 1995, Reeve fell from his horse and became paralyzed from the neck down. Being confined to a wheelchair did not hold back Reeve from being socially active, and after many surgeries and rehabilitation, he decided to dedicate his life to helping people with spinal-cord injuries. He created the Christopher Reeve Foundation, which supports the improvement of the lives of people with disabilities and helps fund research to find a cure for paralysis. He was also politically active, working with senators to make sure that people with disabilities were treated fairly in the workplace. Reeve received many awards for his dedication to public service. He also wrote two books about his experiences, and a documentary was made about his life. Reeve passed away in 2004, but his legacy lives on today. He touched the lives of many people and showed us what it means to overcome extreme odds by never giving up.
