Select the correct text in the passage.
In a memoir, authors often blend factual information about events with personal reflection on the experience. Which two sentences in this excerpt from Ernest Shackleton's South! show the author reflecting on memories of his experience, rather than recounting factual information?
The apathy which seemed to take possession of some of the men at the frustration of their hopes was soon dispelled. Parties were sent out daily in different directions to look for seals and penguins. We had left, other than reserve sledging rations, about 110 lbs. of pemmican, including the dog-pemmican, and 300 lbs. of flour. In addition there was a little tea, sugar, dried vegetables, and suet. I sent Hurley and Macklin to Ocean Camp to bring back the food that we had had to leave there. They returned with quite a good load, including 130 lbs. of dry milk, about 50 lbs. each of dog-pemmican and jam, and a few tins of potted meats. When they were about a mile and a half away their voices were quite audible to us at Ocean Camp, so still was the air.

We were, of course, very short of the farinaceous element in our diet. The flour would last ten weeks. After that our sledging rations would last us less than three months. Our meals had to consist mainly of seal and penguin; and though this was valuable as an anti-scorbutic, so much so that not a single case of scurvy occurred amongst the party, yet it was a badly adjusted diet, and we felt rather weak and enervated in consequence.

Answer 2

Sometimes, when we undergo different situations, we tend to recount how the events affected us or state our opinions of some events. The two sentences in this excerpt from Ernest Shackleton's "South!" that show the author reflecting on memories of his experience, rather than recounting factual information are;

The apathy which seemed to take possession of some of the men at the frustration of their hopes was soon dispelled. When they were about a mile and a half away their voices were quite audible to us at Ocean Camp, so still was the air.

In these two sentences, instead of stating the actual events that transpired, the writer used words that convey his feelings and opinions.

For example, he noticed that some of the men had apathy that was soon dispelled. He also noticed that the air was still and the voices of the men were still audible at some distance.

So, these sentences show the author reflecting on his memories.

a. My sister decided to work in a different area. She was the best student in her course.

Anyone can help me?

Answers

Answer:

My sister, who was the best student in her course, decided to work in a different area.

Explanation:

A relative clause is a clause or part of a sentence that helps define the 'who or what' in the sentence. A defining relative clause identifies the main noun or pronoun we are talking about. On the other hand, a non-defining relative clause provides additional information about the person or thing described.

In the given sentence, the subject is "my sister". By using the non-defining relative clause, we can join the two sentences by using a comma to separate the non-defining relative clause from the rest of the sentence.

Thus, the final sentence will be written as-

My sister, who was the best student in her course (non-defining relative clause), decided to work in a different area.

People get discouraged from doing things they want to do because they feel they have no talent. What type of sentence is this?

Answers

Answer:

A complex sentence contains one or more independent clauses and one or more dependent clauses.

Explanation:

A dependent clause either lacks a subject or a verb or has both a subject and a verb that does not express a complete thought. - A complex sentence always has a subordinator (as, because, since, after, although, when) or relative pronouns (who, that, which)

Independent: People get discouraged from doing things they want to do

Dependent:  Because they feel they have no talent.

What might be some of the results of not marketing to children?​

Answers

Marketing serves to persuade consumers to purchase a particular product or use a service. The advertising often targets a specific group, such as senior citizens or young, single people. Companies selling toys and other youth-oriented products often use psychological tactics to manipulate children into wanting the product. While often effective, marketing to young children comes with disadvantages. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, a child under eight lacks the ability to understand that the advertisements are solely there to sell them on a product. Young children are more likely to believe anything they hear or see in advertising because they aren't cognitively able to realize the selling purpose. Children don't understand that advertising claims are sometimes embellished or emphasized just to make the sale.

Answers

Answer:

1.) "Time is but the stream I go a-fishing in..."

2.) "The intellect is a cleaver..."

Includes them to give comparisons and examples.

Explanation:

The metaphors that Thoreau employs during the lines '99-105' of his book titled 'Walden' include the comparison of 'time with a stream' and the 'intellect  with a cleaver.' These metaphors not only help in making his experiences at Walden more lively through instances but also emphasizes his message of individualism, transcendentalism, the significance of nature, and self-reliance. It also highlights the leisure of living a simple and self-sufficient life and how one can understand the social world around him by introspecting himself from within.

Why was it so difficult to get Malala out of Pakistan?

Answers

Answer: Political tension

Explanation:

Malala Yousafzai was shot by Taliban hitmen in response to her activism and constantly speaking out against the Taliban. When she got to a Pakistani hospital, the doctor informed the government that they could not take care of her in Pakistan.

The government suggested England however they could not formally request that England take her because that would mean admitting that they could not take care of their own. They also did not want the Americans involved due to the recent Bin Laden raid that was done without the Pakistanis being informed.

In the end the United Arab Emirates offered to help which was more acceptable because they are a Muslim country.
