Which of the following would not be a good supporting sentence for an
example paragraph with the following topic sentence?
I generally enjoy all the books that I pick up to read, but
there have been one or two notable exceptions.
O A. The Shining by Stephen King was too much for me, and I had to
put it down.
B. Reading is so beneficial that I think I should always be reading
some kind of book.
O c. When I started reading How a Car Really Works, I fell asleep before
I even finished one page.
D. Arrogant Cats was just dumb, and I felt like I was wasting my time.

Answers

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

All other options reveal a negative attitude or an exception that aligns with the topic sentence except B, which instead gives a positive attitude. All other options state that you don't like it or have a problem with it and thus rhymes with the topic sentence except B. So B is not a good supporting sentence for the example paragraph.

Answer: B is coy

Explanation:

Reading is so beneficial that I think I should always be reading some kind of book.

2. It may be the succession of summers with extremely high temperatures that is to blame.

3. The result is high and unwelcome summer electricity and food bills.

4. Electricity prices are the main reason for the chorus of complaints.

Explanation:

When it comes to questions such as this one, you need to pay attention to the type of information sentences contain and how they're connected to each other.

The sentence that summarizes the information in the paragraph is called the topic sentence. It's usually the first sentence of the paragraph. The topic sentence here would be: Filipinos have recently been complaining that the cost of keeping cool in summer has skyrocketed. It is the best introduction to what the rest of the paragraph will be about.

The rest of the sentences should be organized based on how broad the information they contain is. The second, third, and fourth sentences tell us about the cause of the problem and complaints (broader concepts), while the rest tell us about details and offer an additional explanation for previous sentences (less broad concept).

Which of the following is an example of how to overcome intercultural communication barriers?
a. Accept culture shock
b. Become 'other' oriented
C. Require others to behave just like you
d. Assume differences

Answers

Answer:

B

Explanation: The reason comes from understanding what ethnocentrism is, and also what communication codes are, and are used for. Ethnocentrism is a concept that defines the act of a culture, or group of people, judging another from its preconcieved ideas, customs, traditions, and cultural characteristics. In essence, what happens in ethnocentrism is that a specific group of individuals with a common culture, believe themselves to be on top of all others, and judge everything from that standpoint, almost inferiorizing anything and everything done by someone outside of that superior culture.

Accept culture shock is an example of how to overcome intercultural communication barriers.

What is culture shock?

"Culture shock describes the impact of moving from a familiar culture to one that is unfamiliar."

Accept culture shock is an example of how to overcome intercultural communication barriers because when a person accepts cultural challenges faced in a different culture then he is able to know the culture by trying to accept it by removing the intercultural communication barriers.

In the short story "Harrison Bergeron" by Kurt Vonnegut, what are some prime examples of government overreach? How do they affect the lives of the characters involved? What message could Vonnegut be attempting to relay in regards to current events through this story

Answers

Answer:

Some examples of government overreach in the short story are the “handicap bags,” which are heavy bags placed in people's necks, a mental handicap radio that goes into one of the character's ear because it makes a noise to keep him away of taking "advantage" of his brain, and masks to "hide" beauty and make every one equal.

The characters described in the short story don't remember anything that happens and they can't think for themselves. They watch on TV how their son gets killed and they don't remember seconds after watching it.

Vonnegut's message could be that we have to embrace differences in today's society because it's important to think for ourselves and not be influenced or controlled by other people, television or even governments.
