In the second sentence of the third paragraph, the author uses the clause “which is expected” to advance which of the following claims about jesting?
A. If a witty remark is repeated by someone other than its inventor, it is unlikely to be funny.
B. In the absence of surprise, a witty remark loses much of its humorous effect.
C. Witty remarks that address topical events tend to become stale very swiftly.
D. Shocking events offer the best occasions for humor.
E. Unless a witty remark reinforces its audience’s values, the audience will not find the remark amusing.
Answer:
B. In the absence of surprise, a witty remark loses much of its humorous effect.
Explanation:
Answer B
Correct. In the first sentence of the third paragraph, the author makes the claim that “merriment” (amusement) can be produced only by “a sudden impression,” that is, a surprise. In the second sentence of the paragraph, the author advances that claim by using the clause “which is expected” to assert that jests (witty remarks) lacking such an element of surprise (because the audience is expecting them) lose much of their humor and are thus effectively “already destroyed.”
In the sentence, the author uses clauses to advance the claims as in the absence of surprise a witty remark loses much of its humorous effects. Thus option B is correct.
Waht is paragraph about ?In the first sentence of the third paragraph, the author talks about claims produced only by the sudden impression that is a surprise. In the second sentence of the paragraph, the author advances the claims by the use of the clause.
That is what is expected to test the situation and puts an element of surprise as the audience expects them to lose their humor and thus is effectively already destroyed.

This World
By Mary Oliver
2004
Mary Oliver (1935-2019) was an American poet who won the National Book Award, as well as the Pulitzer Prize. In this poem, a speaker describes the nature that surrounds them. As you read, take notes on the figurative language the poet uses to describe nature.
[1] I would like to write a poem about the world that has
in it
nothing fancy.
But it seems impossible.
Whatever the subject, the morning sun
[5] glimmers it.
The tulip feels the heat and flaps its petals open and
becomes a star.
The ants bore into the peony1 bud and there is a dark
pinprick well of sweetness.
As for the stones on the beach, forget it.
[10] Each one could be set in gold.
So I tried with my eyes shut, but of course the birds
were singing.
And the aspen trees were shaking the sweetest music
out of their leaves.
[15] And that was followed by, guess what, a momentous2 and
beautiful silence
as comes to all of us, in little earfuls, if we’re not too
hurried to hear it.
As for spiders, how the dew hangs in their webs
[20] even if they say nothing, or seem to say nothing.
So fancy is the world, who knows, maybe they sing.
So fancy is the world, who knows, maybe the stars sing too,
and the ants, and the peonies, and the warm stones,
so happy to be where they are, on the beach, instead of being
[25] locked up in gold.
1. a type of flower
2. Momentous (adjective) of great importance or significance
Answer:
c
Explanation:
As for the stones on the beach, forget it.

What are some tips to giving a clear and interesting presentation?
Answer:
There are eight suggestions for delivering a clear and compelling presentation. Firstly, Knowledge is everything, so be certain you fully understand your objectives and the key points you want to convey. Engage the audience interactively by making eye contact, varying your tone, and speaking to all areas of the audience. Speak confidently as an expert that exudes conviction and purpose. Project your voice clearly and loudly enough that all areas of the audience can hear your message without speculation. Interject humor appropriately to lighten your message, appear relatable and draw interest. Know when the timing is optimal to conclude without losing the audience or missing your objectives. Deliver your speech like an actor, treating it as an opportunity to connect with the audience in a meaningful way. Lastly, always be ready with a contingency plan just in case something unexpected occurs where you have to respond or take action.

In the lady or the tiger which information about the princess is most important to help the reader decide whether she chooses the lady or the tiger
Answer:
The most important information is her semi-barbarian behavior.
Explanation:
"The lady or the tiger" was written by Frank Richard Stockton and tells the story of a semi-barbarian king who invented a system of justice where those accused of a crime should choose their destiny between two doors. Behind a door is a tiger that would devour him and behind the other door was a woman, who would absolve him of his crimes and marry him. The princess, daughter of that king, also exhibited semi-barbarian behavior and this is a very important characteristic about her, because one day, the man she was in love with, was accused of a crime, and had to submit to the system of justice idealized by her father. The princess doubts whether she will send the man she loves to death, or whether she will let him marry another woman.
Answer:
her semi-barbaric nature

Does the text's argument that success may be more dependent on practice than on natural ability correspond to what you have read, seen, experienced, or believe to be true? In what way is your own perspective on the topic similar or different? Respond to points made in the text with evidence from your reading and personal experience.
Answer and Explanation:
Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which may make the textual references inaccurate, but I hope I can help you.
According to my perspective, success depends more on practice than on natural ability. This is because in order to be successful in a particular activity, we must stimulate it through dedication and constant stimulation through the practice of that activity. This can be seen in several examples such as athletes who need strong training to succeed, musicians who need to study hard to be successful and even ourselves who need to dedicate hard to be successful in everything we want. Natural talent can help in this process, but talent alone is not enough, as talent without practice is weakened and lost.
