Jack used primarily web sources for his informative speech about gun control. However, his over-reliance on the website sponsored by the National Rifle Association caused his speech to be slanted in one direction, rather than presenting multiple sides of the issue. Which of the six criteria for evaluating web sources did Jack ignore

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:  Objectivity/Bias is the major criterion that he missed.  

Explanation:  Many websites published by organizations will promote that organization's agenda or political viewpoint on the topic. The NRA is not in favor of gun control, and it promotes gun ownership as a 2nd Amendment right.

In order to balance his information and present alternate points of view, he could find sources with the opposite bias, or find statistics from studies done by unbiased sources, such as statistics reported on state or national government sites.

Authority/Credibility is another criterion to check. Can the source be trusted to provide the sources of its information: studies done by other credible, unbiased authors, Can the information be verified by finding similar information on other sites or in reputable publications?

Read this passage from "The Cask of Amontillado" by Edgar Allan
Poe. Then, answer the following question(s)
Which theme, or lesson about life, would the character's thoughts in
this passage best support?
A. the importance of honesty in human relations
B. the indifference of nature to human suffering
c. the danger of a single passion taking over the mind
D. the cowardly nature of those who forgive an enemy
The thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I best
could, but when he ventured upon insult I vowed revenge.
You, who so well know the nature of my soul, will not
suppose, however, that I gave utterance to a threat. At length
I would be avenged; this was a point definitely settled-but
the very definitiveness with which it was resolved precluded
the idea of risk. I must not only punish but punish with
impunity.* A wrong is unredressed when retribution overtakes
its redresser. It is equally unredressed when the avenger fails
to make himself felt as such to him who has done the wrong
It must be understood that neither by word nor deed had 1
given Fortunato cause to doubt my good will. I continued, as
was my wont, to smile in his face, and he did not perceive
that my smile now was at the thought of his immolation.**

Answers

The excerpt from the short story "The Tell-Tale Heart" by Edgar Allan Poe that best demonstrates the unreliability of the narrator is:

D. Oh, you would have laughed to see how cunningly I thrust it in! I moved it slowly-very, very slowly, so that I might not disturb the old man's sleep.

How is the unreliability of the narrator demonstrated in the text?

In the text, the unreliability of the narrator is seen in his own description of himself. He clearly used the word, cunningly to describe how he thrust an object in and moved stealthily so that he would not wake the old man who was sleeping. All of these descriptions point to the personality of the narrator as a deceitful person.

Through this description, we can say that he was an unreliable person. Direct characterization is often used to show the qualities of a person in a very clear manner. We do not have to think about what the narrator represents for the text clearly mentions that he was cunning.

Since the publication of the first novel of Stephenie Meyer's Twilight saga in 2005, millions of readers
all over the world, the majority of whom are teenage girls and women, have fallen for the love story of
Bella and Edward. Furthered by the release of the movie adaptations of the first three volumes in
2009 and 2010, critics have started to wonder about the foundation of Twilight-mania, especially
concerning the basic theme of the story, namely the vampire myth, which, throughout its literary
history, is rather a reflection of "adolescent male fantasy" (Twitchell, Living 6). Still, the indisputably
kitsny story of an inconspicuous teenager who falls in love with the vampire next door fascinates
today's emancipated and independent females and thus can be regarded as an essential part of the
success. It would seem that the attraction derives from Meyer's unique interweaving of different
generic elements, a strategy which can be found in other late 20th- and 21st-century popular
literature. Thus, for instance, the "Harry Potter books have been received with manic enthusiasm"
because they, too, "uniquely combine several kinds of appeal" (O'Keefe 176), such as the mixture of
public school story and fantasy. In the Twilight Saga, we find a similar amalgamation of various
different literary genres - fantasy fiction for young adults, vampire story, gothic romance, and
Arthurian legend. It is a medley, a generic crossing that is - not least due to its focus on an active
young heroine - bound to entice a primarily female readership.
Through an analysis of the figure of the vampire in literature as well as in folklore it will be observed
to what extent Edward differs from the folkloric blood-sucking revenant and also from the master of all
literary vampires, Dracula. Furthermore, it will be investigated how his knightly behaviour towards
Bella contributes to the impression of a romantic transformation of the gothic form. Special attention
will also be paid to the figure of Bella, who, on the one hand seems to be presented as the femme
fragile or damsel in distress concerning her physicality, but, on the other hand, represents a figure of
identification for female readers as the independent, strong-willed hero of young adult fiction. The
analysis seeks to prove that the combination of these various aspects of different genres and
traditions allows Meyer to create a new kind of vampire love story.

What do the details in the image convey about the subject?
What is the overall mood of the image?

And about the picture just search up "Earthrise."

Answers

1. The main focus is to provide a view of the earth as if it were rising, like the sun.

2. Black and blue are the colors that most contribute to the subject. Blue representing the earth and black representing unanimity and how unique this planet is.

3. The details can convey a lot about the subject, depending on the interpretation of house one. A subject that can be transmitted is how we are alone in the middle of the immensity of the universe, we can also perceive the beauty of our planet, in addition to its fragility.

4. The image has a diminishing atmosphere. Decrease in ourselves. That's because we want to believe that we are big and absolute, but we are just a beautiful planet helpless in space.

Question:

What details are absent from the image?

Answer:

A detail I feel is missing is stars, the stars would allow for the background to express itself more. Showing that space is truly a beautiful and mysterious.

B) to repeat the writer's idea
C) to explain the textual evidence
D)to introduce the textual evidence

Answers

Answer: D)to introduce the textual evidence

Explanation: While it can be difficult at times to start sentences in order to express ideas or thoughts, sentence starters can come to the rescue as they are words and phrases to use at the start of sentences and thus provides a partial frame to begin. It serves to introduce the textual evidence (the point of analysis) within a text in order to complete a writing or discussion activity thus helping them build toward the ability to analyze and write about content without the use of the frames.
