Answer:
I am American, so I am assuming people from other countries are calling us this? I have never heard that description being used in the United States. However, I am assuming that the name comes from our history or how we act. For example, Americans are stereotyped as ignorant, Hawaiian shirt-wearing tourists. Of course, that is a hasty generalization, not everyone acts like that. Maybe we are described like dragons/demons because we have been involved in many foreign conflicts?
Answer:
its because they are overpoweringly strong and mean and don't like foreigners.
Explanation:
The next day, in the Sunday paper, I saw a pitiful closeup photograph of Elizabeth, walking alone in front of Central on that first day of integration. It pained my insides to see, once again, the twisted, scowling white faces with open mouths jeering, clustered about my friend's head like bouquets of grotesque flowers. It was an ad paid for by a white man from a small town in Arkansas. "If you live in Arkansas," the ad read, "study this picture and know shame. When hate is unleashed and bigotry finds a voice, God help us all.“
I felt a kind of joy and hope in the thought that one white man was willing to use his own money to call attention to the injustice we were facing. Maybe the picture would help others realize that what they were doing was hurting everybody.

Which best explains why a writer might revise the second sentence to use passive voice?
Answer:
The reason why a writer might revise the second sentence to use passive voice ratther than active, is to emphasize or highlight the object that is being described.
Explanation:
For instance if the sentence is: A very famous paintor MichelAngelo sculped the statue of David in Italy. This sentence here is written in an active voice, because the action is located in the paintor.
If the writer wants to enphasize in the importance of the statue, because it is such an important and well known one, the writer could change from active to passive.
David´s statue was built by the famous paintor Michelangelo.

Read the excerpts from “Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry” and “Speaking Arabic.”
My friend had concluded that if he took his language and culture out of his poetry, he stood a better chance of receiving a fellowship. He took out his native language, the poetic patois of our reality, the rich mixture of Spanish, English, pachuco and street talk which we know so well. In other words, he took the tortillas out of his poetry, which is to say he took the soul out of his poetry.
At a neighborhood fair in Texas, somewhere between the German Oom-pah Sausage Stand and the Mexican Gorditas booth, I overheard a young man say to his friend, “I wish I had a heritage. Sometimes I feel—so lonely for one.” And the tall American trees were dangling their thick branches right down over his head.
Which best states how the structure of each excerpt supports a different tone?
A) - Anaya structures his text as an anecdote, which gives it a humorous tone, while Nye structures her text as a counterclaim, which gives it a defensive tone.
B) - Anaya structures his text as an explanation, which gives it an authoritative tone, while Nye structures her text as an impression, which gives it a soothing tone.
C) - Anaya structures his text as a theory, which gives it an academic tone, while Nye structures her text as a list, which gives it an unemotional tone.
D) - Anaya structures his text as a news report, which gives it a neutral tone, while Nye structures her text as a critique, which gives it a judgmental tone.
THE ANSWER IS B) - CORRECT ON EDG 2020
Answer:
B) - Anaya structures his text as an explanation, which gives it an authoritative tone, while Nye structures her text as an impression, which gives it a soothing tone.
Explanation:
Anaya is the author of “Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry”. In this text, he analyzes how people can kill poetry, removing culture and language from a place. He speaks appropriately about this, affirming the importance of the cultural in poetic construction. He does this using a certainty tone, which reflects an authoritarian tone in the work.
Nye, the author of "Speaking Arabic", on the other hand, structured his text as an observation, a softer tone and not authoritarian, which allows the reader to reflect and draw his own conclusions about the narrative.

What is the relationship between how others feel and how we feel
Answer:
If you feel something in relation to how someone else feels, that's called sympathy.
Answer:
We are unhappy with ourselves because we are unhappy with how we relate to ourselves, not the other way around. It’s not your flaws that you need to work on: it’s the way you talk to yourself. The problem, of course, is that we can’t break up with ourselves, or leave an abusive relationship with ourselves. They feel scared or feel others’ pain strongly within themselves when seeing others scared or in pain. Cognitive empathy, on the other hand, is the ability to understand the emotions of others. A good example is the psychologist who understands the emotions of the client in a rational way, but does not necessarily share the emotions of the client in a visceral sense.They see life as a human existence and material things as being subservient to this. They value harmony and use tact in their interactions with others.
