Writers often rely on a variety of reference materials to help them determine the meanings of words and phrases, including figurative and connotative meanings. What are some specific reference materials that a writer might rely on and what purposes do they serve? Explain at least four different writing reference materials and evaluate the purposes they serve.Identify why a writer might need to refer to each reference material.

Answers

Reference materials are sources that provide background information or facts on a given topic. These are four types of reference materials that writers often refer to during their work:

Dictionary: A dictionary is a reference material that lists words and their definitions alphabetically. They also provide additional information about the words, such as etymology. Writers usually refer to these when they want to learn the meaning of a particular word.

Thesaurus: A thesaurus is similar to a dictionary, but instead of providing definitions, these usually provide synonyms and antonyms. These are useful for writers who want to add variety to their writing.

Encyclopedia: Encyclopedias are reference materials that contain general information about a vast number of topics. These are organized alphabetically. Encyclopedias are used by writers in order to gain general information about a particular subject, or as a starting point for finding facts about a subject.

Handbook: A handbook is a reference material that contains facts about a specific subject, or instructions about a specific task. These are often similar to manuals of guidebooks. Writers might use these when they need to know how to perform a particular task, but are interested in only having an overview or a quick consultation, as opposed to gaining expertise.

Read this excerpt from Little Brother and answer the following questions in complete sentences using proper grammar and punctuation: Marcus manages to flag down a vehicle and they get more than they bargained for... It was a military-looking Jeep, like an armored Hummer, only it didn't have any military insignia on it. The car skidded to a stop just in front of me, and I jumped back and lost my balance and ended up on the road. I felt the doors open near me, and then saw a confusion of booted feet moving close by. I looked up and saw a bunch of military-looking guys in coveralls, holding big, bulky rifles and wearing hooded gas masks with tinted face-plates. I barely had time to register them before those rifles were pointed at me. I'd never looked down the barrel of a gun before, but everything you've heard about the experience is true. You freeze where you are, time stops, and your heart thunders in your ears. I opened my mouth, then shut it, then, very slowly, I held my hands up in front of me. The faceless, eyeless armed man above me kept his gun very level. I didn't even breathe. Van was screaming something and Jolu was shouting and I looked at them for a second and that was when someone put a coarse sack over my head and cinched it tight around my windpipe, so quick and so fiercely I barely had time to gasp before it was locked on me. I was pushed roughly but dispassionately onto my stomach and something went twice around my wrists and then tightened up as well, feeling like baling wire and biting cruelly. I cried out and my own voice was muffled by the hood. I was in total darkness now and I strained my ears to hear what was going on with my friends. I heard them shouting through the muffling canvas of the bag, and then I was being impersonally hauled to my feet by my wrists, my arms wrenched up behind my back, my shoulders screaming. I stumbled some, then a hand pushed my head down and I was inside the Hummer. More bodies were roughly shoved in beside me. "Guys?" I shouted, and earned a hard thump on my head for my trouble. I heard Jolu respond, then felt the thump he was dealt, too. My head rang like a gong. "Hey," I said to the soldiers. "Hey, listen! We're just high school students. I wanted to flag you down because my friend was bleeding. Someone stabbed him." I had no idea how much of this was making it through the muffling bag. I kept talking. "Listen—this is some kind of misunderstanding. We've got to get my friend to a hospital—" Someone went upside my head again. It felt like they used a baton or something—it was harder than anyone had ever hit me in the head before. My eyes swam and watered and I literally couldn't breathe through the pain. A moment later, I caught my breath, but I didn't say anything. I'd learned my lesson.

One of the themes in the poem "To a Skylark" by William Wordsworth is that we should chase our dreams, but we must not forget where we started. Which line in the poem reflects this theme?

Answers

Answer:

"True to the kindred points of Heaven and Home"!

Explanation:

"To a Skylark", is a poem written by William Woodsworth in recognition and praise of a bird known for its exceptional ability to connect two worlds. The Skylark has the ability to fly to the high heavens or sky carrying with it, its melodious singing. It also returns to its home, the nest, after its flight. This illustrates the ability to not forget ones root no matter the height attained in life. Compared to the Nightingale which only remains in its nest, the Skylark had a more noble attitude or approach to life.

So, William Woodsworth, through this poem is trying to teach us that even while we chase our dreams, or eventually attain them, we must not forget where we started.

You become more grateful, confident, or determined by repeatedly installing experiences of gratitude, confidence, or determination. Similarly, you center yourself increasingly in the Responsive, green zone – with an underlying sense of peace, contentment, and love – by having and internalizing many experiences of safety, satisfaction, and connection.

Judge Danforth says that despite his many years of legal experience he would be “confounded” (bewildered; unable to wrap his head around it) if he were a defense attorney for the accused in Salem. What is he saying about the charges of witchcraft and the fates of the accused?

Answers

Answer:

Judge Danforth says that he would be "confounded" because the case is extremely argumentative and it is so open that it would be very difficult to defend each one of them as many have committed dishonest actions,

Explanation:

The reasons behind this answer are that in the first place Judge Danforth analyzed the context and the situation to deduct that building a defense on them and their crimes would be very difficult because when a lawyer wants to defend a case he or she has to grab everything available do show the client is innocent. But in this case, all of them committed dishonest actions.

Explain how the distribution of news has changed because of the digital age. Use specific examples in your answer. WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST



Answers

Answer:

From newspaper to cellphone

Explanation:

In the heydays of printed news - and before television - the newspaper was the most reliable source of information. But the distribution was limited.  Radio and television helped to spread the news around the world in a much quicker way, albeit the latter lost most of its informative character and turned into an amusement provider.

With the digital age the distribution of news covered the whole world, except for some remote and isolated places. But once again the quality of information lessened as the quantity improved. Now we are in a century where information travels with the speed of light along the globe but its actuality (twitter for example) is very often more important than its accuracy.

So news is more democratically distributed, but in the process it has become less democratic in character.
