Explanation:
The Supermarket: Prime Real Estate," Marion Nestle points out that "supermarket retailers know more than you could possibly imagine about how to push your ‘buy' button." She claims that supermarket companies control people to buy goods by using some surprised strategies. One of the evidence comes from Vance Packard's book The Hidden Persuaders that corporations were hiring social scientists to study unconscious human emotions to help companies manipulate people into buying products. Packard also talked about merchants use beautiful and interesting packaging to appeal customers, especially children customers. It is unexpected that a food corporation not only produces food but also researches people's emotion. People usually think food corporations only focus on developing their products, so before reading Nestle's essay, most readers would not be able to know that food companies also study in other fields other than food field.

Answer:
The central theme of the passage is that they invest in the study of human emotions, so that they can add manipulation factors to their products.
Explanation:
The text shows that companies are not only concerned with the production of products, but are also concerned with how to manipulate the consumer and attract him to buy that product. This is all evident in the line "corporations were hiring social scientists to study unconscious human emotions to help companies manipulate people into buying products," where it shows that companies have invested in the manipulation of human emotions as one of the factors of production, with the objective to increase sales.

In his speech, Steve Jobs presents several elements of pathos. Write down five of the examples that involve Jobs' use of pathos and explain why he shares these elements with the audience.
Answer:
READ BELOW
Explanation:
As i dont have the text i have a very useful explanation. The meaning of pathos is a attempt to sway an audience emotionally, so the question is saying that Steve Jobs presents SEVERAL elements of pathos, (meaning in the text or article Jobs is presenting a lot of feeling towards the reader) so you have to find 5 examples of pathos that Steve has shown or written in the text, for example, (a quick sentence that would be placed in a pathos poem)"you look around in confusion as the crowd laughs, with thoughts of regretion.That was me standing there..."
Answer:
1. The first instance, Jobs told about his birth to an unwed college graduate student; so he was given up for adoption. When he was about to be adopted by a couple, they changed their mind and chose a baby girl instead. When his parents came to adopt him, they were later denied by his biological mother because they never finished college. His parents finally got him only when they promised that he would be given a college education.2. When he was ready for college, his parents' savings was used for his college tuition. It pained him to see his working-class parents' hard earned money being wasted on subjects he was not interested in. Since he did not really have a clear direction on what to pursue, he dropped out of those subjects and took only the ones that interested him. 3. Aside from not being able to go to a well-known university, he could not also afford the dorm. He slept on the floor in his friends'room. His food came from the money he got from returning coke bottles. In order to eat good meals, he would go to the Hare Krishna temple walking 7 miles every Sunday to get a free meal.4. He was 20 years old when he finally found out what he loved doing. He and Woz founded Apple but after 10 years was fired by the very company he founded. The man he hired to help him turned out to be the cause of his leaving his company. His life was a mess at age 30; He was clueless and uncertain for months.5. When things were good again after having founded NeXT and Pixar, married and had children, he was diagnosed with a terminal cancer of the pancreas. He was so depressed to reveal the bad news to his wife and children. He was told that he had only 3-6 months to live and he had to endure going through endoscopy. 6. Why did he share these elements to his audience? He shared all these challenging times in his life in order to give hope and encouragement to the young graduates. He proved to the graduates at Stanford that bad times could turn out into stepping stones to better opportunities in life -- that negative things happen for a purpose most, if not all, of the time.

- Yasmin is the strongest reader in the class.
- Yasmin borrowed eleven books from the library.
- Yasmin doesn't completely hate reading.
Answer:
Yasmin doesn't completely hate reading.
Explanation:
If you know Yasmin is an avid reader, you already know that they don't completely hate reading, it's an understatement.
The description of the picture is, Yasmin doesn’t completely hate reading. The correct option is C.
What is reading?Reading is an activity in which we know about things by seeing and understanding something. When we read, our brains translate the written symbols—letters, punctuation, and spaces—that our eyes see into words, sentences, and paragraphs that make sense to us.
Yasmin doesn't despise reading entirely. Yasmin is a voracious reader, so to say they don't absolutely detest it would be an understatement. Reading is a crucial activity that improves our ability to focus. Yasmin doesn't despise reading in its whole, so choice C is the correct one.

Please don't judge me I'm not a writer.
Walking down this street was so empty. It's kinda nice though. I feel like I'm walking in an magical forest. It's calm, beautiful and I enjoy it. As I walked further, I saw a house peeking through the tall trees. I was getting closer and closer and saw how enormous it really is. Standing by the mansion's gate made me feel tiny like Alice in Wonderland. The exterior are painted white and their windows are as tall as the trees. Their beautiful and large garden was spread throughout from left to right. In the middle, you can see a huge water fountain just a few meters in front their door where the birds chirp as they drink and bathe. I walked a few steps after I passed the mansion and saw another gate that was connected to the mansion. There were cars parked in there. Their shiny exterior reflected the sunlight as it hits them. The dark red car which almost looks like the color of a cherry caught my eye. It was exquisite and it was the most unique thing I've ever seen. I was left in shock how rich these people are. They're like living the life of royals. How good their life must be.

1. if a load of bread cost 25 cents two years ago, how much does it cost now
(attached image is for the comprehension)
Answer:
It goes around 63 to 75 cents
Explanation:
The text mentions that prices in Ethiopia have been rapidly rising in the last two years and that things have changed greatly.
It is mentioned in the text (the third paragraph) how the prices have been raised to 250 to 300 percent. This means they are 2.5 to 3 times higher.
In case the loaf of bread was 25 cents two years ago, today in Ethiopia it would cost around 63 to 75 cents.
We count these final prices by multiplying 0.25 with 2.5 and 3.

What is a research question?A research question is "a question that a research project sets out to answer". Choosing a research question is an essential element of both quantitative and qualitative research. Investigation will require data collection and analysis, and the methodology for this will vary widely. Good research questions seek to improve knowledge on an important topic, and are usually narrow and specific.
To form a research question, one must determine what type of study will be conducted such as a qualitative, quantitative, or mixed study. Additional factors, such as project funding, may not only affect the research question itself but also when and how it is formed during the research process.
Literature suggests several variations on criteria selection for constructing a research question, such as the FINER or PICOT methods.
