Answers

Sensory language helps a reader to connect with an image or scene, it helps us to feel like we’re there with the character and we’re seeing/hearing/smelling/etc. what they are. For example, ‘Bob could see a mountain’, isn’t particularly sensory, we know there’s a mountain but we don’t know what it looks like, a better sentence would be ‘Bob could see a tall, snow-capped mountain in the distance’ - it gives us details about what Bob can see and so we can picture in our minds. So you need to think about which of the four sentences uses descriptive language like this.

When should you write a draft of your summary?

Answers

Answer:

You should almost always write a draft summary/ conclusion, it should be written quickly and without much effort. By writing quickly, you tend to loosen your judgments on your characters and allow their natures to be revealed. The first draft doesn't have to make sense. There will be narrative holes, inconsistencies and contradictions; don't get hung up on these.

Writing a First Draft

Just write. You already have at least one focusing idea.

Make an outline. Write your topic or thesis down and then jot down what points you might make that will flesh out that topic or support that thesis.

Begin with research.

Explanation:

Summary Writing Format

When writing a summary, remember that it should be in the form of a paragraph.

A summary begins with an introductory sentence that states the text’s title, author and main point of the text as you see it.

A summary is written in your own words.

A summary contains only the ideas of the original text. Do not insert any of your own opinions, interpretations, deductions or comments into a summary.

Identify in order the significant sub-claims the author uses to defend the main point.

Copy word-for-word three separate passages from the essay that you think support and/or defend the main point of the essay as you see it.

Cite each passage by first signaling the work and the author, put “quotation marks” around the passage you chose, and put the number of the paragraph where the passages can be found immediately after the passage.

Using source material from the essay is important. Why? Because defending claims with source material is what you will be asked to do when writing papers for your college professors.

Write a last sentence that “wraps” up your summary; often a simple rephrasing of the main point.

Example Summary Writing Format

In the essay Santa Ana, author Joan Didion’s main point is (state main point). According to Didion “…passage 1…” (para.3). Didion also writes “…passage 2…” (para.8). Finally, she states “…passage 3…” (para. 12) Write a last sentence that “wraps” up your summary; often a simple rephrasing of the main point.

Explanation:

Maibon selfishly wanted to remain young and never grow old. That was why he asked for a stone from the dwarf. He soon discovered that the stone's effect also affected all the things around him. For that reason, he did not grow older and neither did his produce in the farm not the animals he reared. He then realized the foolishness of his actions and decided to return the stone to the dwarf.

When he saw the dwarf, he lamented his woes to him and the dwarf instructed him to bury the stone with no longing for it in his heart again. He did this and was so glad to eventually grow old.

Read this excerpt from The Call of the Wild by Jack London.

The tent, illumined by a candle, glowed warmly in the midst of the white plain; and when he, as a matter of course, entered it, both Perrault and Francois bombarded him with curses and cooking utensils, till he recovered from his consternation and fled ignominiously into the outer cold. A chill wind was blowing that nipped him sharply and bit with especial venom into his wounded shoulder. He lay down on the snow and attempted to sleep, but the frost soon drove him shivering to his feet. Miserable and disconsolate, he wandered about among the many tents, only to find that one place was as cold as another.

B. This is not an example of the use of ethos, pathos or logos.
C. This is an example of the use of ethos, because King gives specific facts about incidents of racism and police
brutality that black people regularly experience.
D. This is an example of the use of pathos, because King communicates the feelings of fear, anxiety, stress and anger
experienced by black people due to racism

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:The answer is  D, pathos. Because the defenition of the word pathos is, your attempt to sway an audience emotionally, and if you read the poem the writer of it is talking about hauntings and fear and the writer is kind of bringing you in that situation of trauma by using the sentences and words like, "when you" and "you are". Those words bring the reader closer to those feelings of "knowing what to expect" and "being haunted by night", and all that of bringing the reader in that situation is called pathos.

In 1607, the Virginia Company sent about 100 settlers to set up a colony in modern-day Virginia called Jamestown (named for King James I).Jamestown almost totally failed also, for several reasons. First, there was terrible conflict with the Native Americans In the first weeks: 200 natives attacked the settlers in the first weeks. Several Englishmen from Jamestown tried to make peace and earn the trust of the Natives by paying taxes of skins and food to their tribal leader, Powhatan. Still, Powhatan and his people didnt trust the English or their motives. Second, some of the British settlers in Jamestown thought they could get rich quickly without doing much hard work. Many had been born into wealthy families and had no experience of manual labor such as growing crops or building houses. Some spent their days looking for gold and ignored daily chores. This only began to change when one of their leaders, John Smith, told the settlers that he that will not work shall not eat. Third, Jamestowns location was near swamps and pools of standing water, which bred mosquitos that gave the settlers diseases like malaria, typhus, and dysentery. Finally, Jamestown did not have good leaders at first. The only strong leader they had was a soldier named John Smith, but he soon became injured and had to sail back to England. During the first years of the settlement, Jamestown colonists suffered from starvation and sickness. The period from October 1609 to March 1610 was known as the Starving Time. The settlement only survived because the Native Americans gave the English help in the form of food and water.Meanwhile back in England, writers were publishing advertisements calling Jamestown a paradise. 5,500 new settlers soon sailed over to Jamestown based on these promises. Instead they found a desperate life of starvation and 4000 of them quickly died. King James I of England decided it was time for the British government to take control of Jamestown. He canceled its charter and appointed a governor to rule it. Jamestown also formed a council of men to make laws, called the House of Burgesses. This was the first elected government in the British colonies.Tobacco Saves JamestownThe Virginia colony would have collapsed if it hadnt been for a single plant: tobacco. Tobacco was new to Europeans, and people in Europe quickly became addicted to smoking and chewing it, demanding more. The Jamestown planters shipped thousands of pounds of it each year. They made so much money from selling tobacco to England that they began cutting down forests to make bigger tobacco plantations. Thousands of English people came to work on the new plantations. Many of them were poor and worked as indentured servants. These were workers who had to work for their food and shelter for years before they could own land. They were not free until their years of contracted service had finished, which usually took 7 years. Many of them died before their term of service was up, and many who survived were not given the land they were promised.QUESTIONS:1. Give 4 reasons why Jamestown almost totally failed:a)b)c)d)2.
