right answer^^
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
• A company says that a wide range of products can be used with its product, which is not actually true. = vendor lock in.
• A group of companies agrees to charge the same inflated price for a good. = price fixing
Price fixing is when producers or suppliers agree to sell a product at a particular price which is fixed. Price fixing brings about high prices of goods and also fosters unfair competition.
• A large company charges a price below production cost in order to eliminate small competitors = predatory pricing
Predatory pricing simply refers to an illegal act by companies whereby prices are set low in order to remove competition from others. Antitrust laws are violated through predatory pricing due to the fact that it can lead to monopoly.

A. If a witty remark is repeated by someone other than its inventor, it is unlikely to be funny.
B. In the absence of surprise, a witty remark loses much of its humorous effect.
C. Witty remarks that address topical events tend to become stale very swiftly.
D. Shocking events offer the best occasions for humor.
E. Unless a witty remark reinforces its audience’s values, the audience will not find the remark amusing.
Answer:
B. In the absence of surprise, a witty remark loses much of its humorous effect.
Explanation:
Answer B
Correct. In the first sentence of the third paragraph, the author makes the claim that “merriment” (amusement) can be produced only by “a sudden impression,” that is, a surprise. In the second sentence of the paragraph, the author advances that claim by using the clause “which is expected” to assert that jests (witty remarks) lacking such an element of surprise (because the audience is expecting them) lose much of their humor and are thus effectively “already destroyed.”
In the sentence, the author uses clauses to advance the claims as in the absence of surprise a witty remark loses much of its humorous effects. Thus option B is correct.
Waht is paragraph about ?In the first sentence of the third paragraph, the author talks about claims produced only by the sudden impression that is a surprise. In the second sentence of the paragraph, the author advances the claims by the use of the clause.
That is what is expected to test the situation and puts an element of surprise as the audience expects them to lose their humor and thus is effectively already destroyed.

Does the text's argument that success may be more dependent on practice than on natural ability correspond to what you have read, seen, experienced, or believe to be true? In what way is your own perspective on the topic similar or different? Respond to points made in the text with evidence from your reading and personal experience.
Answer and Explanation:
Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which may make the textual references inaccurate, but I hope I can help you.
According to my perspective, success depends more on practice than on natural ability. This is because in order to be successful in a particular activity, we must stimulate it through dedication and constant stimulation through the practice of that activity. This can be seen in several examples such as athletes who need strong training to succeed, musicians who need to study hard to be successful and even ourselves who need to dedicate hard to be successful in everything we want. Natural talent can help in this process, but talent alone is not enough, as talent without practice is weakened and lost.

In the lady or the tiger which information about the princess is most important to help the reader decide whether she chooses the lady or the tiger
Answer:
The most important information is her semi-barbarian behavior.
Explanation:
"The lady or the tiger" was written by Frank Richard Stockton and tells the story of a semi-barbarian king who invented a system of justice where those accused of a crime should choose their destiny between two doors. Behind a door is a tiger that would devour him and behind the other door was a woman, who would absolve him of his crimes and marry him. The princess, daughter of that king, also exhibited semi-barbarian behavior and this is a very important characteristic about her, because one day, the man she was in love with, was accused of a crime, and had to submit to the system of justice idealized by her father. The princess doubts whether she will send the man she loves to death, or whether she will let him marry another woman.
Answer:
her semi-barbaric nature

Do you think that people should always be punished when they do something wrong why or why not 4 sentences
Answer:
Well first, It really depends on what your definition of punished is. But in my opinion; no.
Explanation:
People make mistakes constantly and when someone makes a mistake it certainaly wont be their last. Simply punishing a person based on a mistake that you perceive as bad is wrong without knowing both sides of the story. I think it's best to figure out why that person did something wrong and then continue to talk to them so they do the right thing next time. Punishing someone really comes with its own limits and expectations to the action, If it's something major then I suppose they should be punished but if they continue to make that mistake, it's obvious punishing them isn't the right thing to do.

What are some tips to giving a clear and interesting presentation?
Answer:
There are eight suggestions for delivering a clear and compelling presentation. Firstly, Knowledge is everything, so be certain you fully understand your objectives and the key points you want to convey. Engage the audience interactively by making eye contact, varying your tone, and speaking to all areas of the audience. Speak confidently as an expert that exudes conviction and purpose. Project your voice clearly and loudly enough that all areas of the audience can hear your message without speculation. Interject humor appropriately to lighten your message, appear relatable and draw interest. Know when the timing is optimal to conclude without losing the audience or missing your objectives. Deliver your speech like an actor, treating it as an opportunity to connect with the audience in a meaningful way. Lastly, always be ready with a contingency plan just in case something unexpected occurs where you have to respond or take action.
