Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

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.

What is the central theme of the passage?

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.

Yet, I am familiar with the beat of pounding
Pounding of sugar cane, the whipping of backs
The cries and screams of my ancestors
Ring loud in my head centuries later

Answers

sorry I was gonna answer it but I had to do something. Anyways, I think the literal meaning would be that the people in the poem are assuming that black people listen to rap music and music that "African Americans listen to" when anyone can listen to anything, hence the "Afrobeats and Caribbean music"

The deeper meaning is that this person who is speaking knows "white artists" as they grew up around these people. "Yet, I am familiar with the beat of pounding . Pounding of sugar cane, the whipping of backs . The cries and screams of my ancestors . Ring loud in my head centuries later " They are saying here that they know too much about being a slave and being whipped on the back by their owners. "The cries and screams of my ancestors  ring loud in my head centuries later" This means that there is generation trauma, which is really sad. BLM

8. Why did ancient people start using rhyme?

Answers

Rhymes were predominantly invented to help keep information in memory.

A Rhyme can be inserted within the lines or at the end of a poem.

Basically, when two or more words that sound identical are inserted within or at the end of a sentence or a text, a rhyme has been formed.

For example,

Some people prefer apples

Others Pineapples

Regardless of which they choose,

It is always healthy to eat fruits.

Another reason rhyme was invented or put to use by literary giants like Shakesphere was because it introduced structure into his poem, gave them added "color" and acceptance.

Rhymes, as in the days of old when it was used as a mnemonic aid, is still very relevant today.

Read the poem.

Song of the Open Road

by Walt Whitman

Afoot and light-hearted, I take to the open road,
Healthy, free, the world before me,
The long brown path before me, leading wherever I choose.

Henceforth I ask not good-fortune—I myself am good-fortune;
Henceforth I whimper no more, postpone no more, need nothing,
Strong and content, I travel the open road. . . .

From this hour, freedom!
From this hour I ordain myself loos’d of limits and imaginary lines,
Going where I list, my own master, total and absolute,
Listening to others, and considering well what they say,
Pausing, searching, receiving, contemplating,
Gently, but with undeniable will, divesting myself of the holds that would hold me.

I inhale great draughts of space;
The east and the west are mine, and the north and the south are mine.

I am larger, better than I thought;
I did not know I held so much goodness.

All seems beautiful to me;
I can repeat over to men and women, You have done such good to me, I would do the same to you.

I will recruit for myself and you as I go;
I will scatter myself among men and women as I go;
I will toss the new gladness and roughness among them;
Whoever denies me, it shall not trouble me;
Whoever accepts me, he or she shall be blessed, and shall bless me.

Read this line from "Song of the Open Road."

Strong and content, I travel the open road.

How do the words strong and content affect the tone of the poem?

A. They give the poem a confident tone.

B. They give the poem a humble tone.

C. They add a calm tone to the poem.

What characteristics make this article a formal essay?

Is it factual?

Does it attempt to explain rather than to entertain?

What is its thesis statement?


The essay is: "A Call to Patriots – December 23, 1776"

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

1. What makes this text a formal article is the author's choice of words. The author chose to use formal and elaborate words, although they are simple and direct. In addition, the author imposes a tone of sophistication and knowledge in his words, using the grammar correctly and without using jargon, slang, linguistic expressions and any other type of word that deviates from the English standard.

2. The essay is factual, as it is based on facts, to which the author presents evidence that they really exist and are true, both in relation to what he defends and in relation to what he accuses.

3. The essay does not attempt to entertain the reader at any time, but is based on explaining the backwardness that England promotes in the American colonies and how it should be stopped.

4. The thesis statement is that the American colonies need to become independent of the control of England, as this delays the success of the colonies, while enriching England, which imposes a tyrannical positioning on the colonies, which will become stronger, as the Americans postpone standing up against the crown.

What should writers do when summarizing a text? Select three options.

They should restate the text’s central ideas.

They should use objective language.

Which sentence in this excerpt supports the main idea that the United States can still develop while preventing climate change?
...It is a pleasure to be with you this afternoon to talk to you about the efforts USDA is making to address global climate change...

Climate change is one of the greatest threats facing our planet, and the United States is taking significant action to meet this challenge. Under President Obama's leadership, the US is advancing policies that address climate change by promoting energy efficiency in our homes, cars and businesses, increasing the domestic production of clean energy—including biofuels—and by investing in renewable energy technology. ...The United States is also vigorously engaged in international climate negotiations while continuing to work with Congress on domestic climate legislation...

President Obama believes, as I do, that we can advance clean energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions while growing our economy. This is particularly true for America's rural communities. Farmers, ranchers and forest owners have a tremendous amount to contribute to fighting climate change and to also ensuring that we adapt to climate change. ...Farmers are helping make America more energy independent while at the same time generating new rural income by producing renewable energy... And, I believe farmers, ranchers, and forest owners have the potential to benefit from markets for greenhouse gas reductions that could provide other new economic opportunities. Indeed, addressing climate change will be much easier if we enlist landowners to produce energy and undertake practices that sequester carbon and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

In the past 20 months, under President Obama's leadership, the US Department of Agriculture has made significant changes in how climate change is treated within the Department. ...Gone are the days where climate change was viewed as a research question or a problem for future generations...
