Read the following passage:
Amid the many horrors of the Vietnam War, I found one of
the worst to be the waiting - those quiet times of inactivity
when anticipation of the next attack weighed on me like a
pile of bricks. I might be lying in the mud along a creek bed
somewhere, completely oblivious to the cold, the wet
earth, or the smell of gunpowder still fresh in my nostrils. It
was those times of waiting that showed me I had nothing
else in my mind – no past, no future, no ideas. Just a raw
awareness of the moment.
Which sentence best uses figurative language to match the paragraph's tone?
O A. In the quiet of the jungle, the rippling sounds of the creek carried
me back to happier days on my parents' farm.
B. I could hear my own pulse drumming in my ears, but my only
thought was to remain still and quiet.
C. For years after that, I would remember the terror and suspense of
those long minutes spent waiting.
D. The jungle had reached into my mind, and its thick vines choked
out everything else that had been there.

Which situation is most clearly ironic?
O A. A contest between two chess grand masters
B. A series of quick exchanges between two pals
O C. A sweater sale on the hottest day of the year
OD. A gazebo on a lonely hilltop during a huge storm

Answers

Answer:

O C. A sweater sale on the hottest day of the year.

Explanation:

Irony is a figurative language used to express one thing but the opposite happens. It is used mostly in humor and satirical expressions when one wants to criticize.

Among the given sentences, the most clearly ironic sentence is option C. Selling of sweaters is supposed to be an event seen during cold climates. So, selling warm clothes on a hot sunny day is ironic. It's the total opposite of what is the most probable scenario.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

A lady in a faded gingham dress and her husband, dressed in a homespun threadbare suit, stepped off the train in Boston, and walked timidly without an appointment into the president's outer office. The secretary could tell in a moment that such backwoods, country hicks had no business at Harvard and probably didn't even deserve to be in Cambridge. She frowned. "We want to see the president", the man said softly. "He'll be busy all day," the secretary snapped. "We'll wait," the lady replied.


For hours, the secretary ignored them, hoping that the couple would finally become discouraged and go away. They didn't. And the secretary grew frustrated and finally decided to disturb the president, even though it was a chore she always regretted to do. "Maybe if they just see you for a few minutes, they'll leave," she told him. And he sighed in exasperation and nodded. Someone of his importance obviously didn't have the time to spend with them, but he detested gingham dresses and homespun suits cluttering up his outer office. The president, stern-faced with dignity, strutted toward the couple.


The lady told him, "We had a son that attended Harvard for one year. He loved Harvard. He was happy here. But about a year ago, he was accidentally killed. And my husband and I would like to erect a memorial to him, somewhere on campus."



The president wasn't touched - he was shocked. "Madam," he said gruffly, "We can't put up a statue for every person who attended Harvard and died. If we did, this place would look like a cemetery."


"Oh, no," the lady explained quickly, "We don't want to erect a statue. We thought we would like to give a building to Harvard.”


The president rolled his eyes. He glanced at the gingham dress and homespun suit, then exclaimed, "A building! Do you have any earthly idea how much a building costs? We have over seven and a half million dollars in the physical plant at Harvard."


For a moment the lady was silent. The president was pleased. He could get rid of them now.
Then the lady turned to her husband and said quietly, "Is that all it costs to start a University? Why don't we just start our own?"



Her husband nodded. The President's face wilted in confusion and bewilderment. And Mr. and Mrs. Leland Stanford walked away, traveling to Palo Alto, California, where they established the University that bears their name, a memorial to a son that Harvard no longer cared about.




QUESTION: Why did the president of the university look down upon the couple?

a
A. He thought they were going to cause problems because they looked dangerous.
b
B. He didn't think they were important enough to talk to because they looked poor.
c

The Missouri Compromise came in 1820 and limited slavery to areas south of the 36°30′ parallel except for Missouri. Popular Soverignity in the form of the Kansas-Nebraska Act repealed this in 1854 and allowed for Kansas and Nebraska to vote on their slavery status.

The widely criticized Dred Scott decision was then passed in 1857 and stated that an enslaved person who had escaped to a free state was still an enslaved person and that African Americans were not citizens.

What is the difference between communication and communication skills?​

Answers

Explanation:

communication is the phenomena of exchanging news,views,opinions,emotions,etc whereas communication skills is the skill,knowledge,ability of communicating or to express the phenomena defined by communication.

Communication-

Communication involves getting information from one person to the other person and expressing yourself. It is the art and process of creating and sharing ideas. Effective communication depends on the richness of those ideas.

Communication Skills-

Communication skills are the tools we develop to improve and make more efficient that interchange of ideas. Advanced communication skills take the basic skills of communication and frame them within a general understanding of how the communication process works. When you understand all of the elements involved when people communicate, they can learn to influence not only your own communication but the communication of others. This is why advanced communication skills are, in essence, leadership skills. They allow you access to ways to guide and direct communication between yourself and another or a group so that you can achieve your goals and outcomes.

The procedural texts provide a series of precise and sequenced steps along with directions with the explanation to the reader about doing something, and also allowing the reader to reach the outcome successfully.

Asking pertinent questions about the procedure is the second step when using the SQR3 method to analyze the information in a procedural text.
