Use "A Baseball School for Big-League Dreamers "and "I Believe in the Also-Rans" to answer this question. Which sentence correctly describes the organizational pattern used by the authors of the two selections?

Answers

Answer 1

Hello. You forgot to present the options given. The response options are:

A Both selections provide definitions of key terms to add meaning to the texts.

B Both selections include anecdotes as examples to support their main ideas.

C Both selections use quotations from experts to support the main ideas in the texts.

D Both selections use cause-and-effect to highlight the relationships between key ideas

Answer:

B Both selections include anecdotes as examples to support their main ideas.

Explanation:

An anecdote is a short story that can have a surprising or inspiring ending, but it is used as an example for a larger concept, which is usually associated with a text. In "A Baseball School for Big-League Dreamers" and "I Believe in the Also-Rans" we can see the use of anecdotes to represent the concepts that each author wants to show with his text. In "A Baseball School for Big-League Dreamers" we can see an anecdote about a boy who dreamed of being a great baseball player and went to a school that focuses on training professional players, however, the school does not guarantee that all students will achieve their goals, but they teach them to persist and to be the best players they can. "I Believe in the Also-Rans" tells an anecdote about how a child was happy to finish a race in third place, showing that the important thing is to complete your goals, even though you are not the most successful person in the room.

Read a text trailer from the movie Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone.


which statement in the trailer is the hook?


• Harry potter seems at first glance normal, a boy living in an unusual life with his dull and rather mean Dursley relatives


• however, on his 11th birthday, he learns from a mysterious stranger, Rubeus Hagrid, that he’s actually a famous wizard


• forbidden by his uncle from seeking out his magical destiny, letters rain down inviting Harry to attend the magic school of Hogwarts


• what follows is an adventure story of intrigue, discoveries, and sacrifice

Answers

Answer:

• however, on his 11th birthday, he learns from a mysterious stranger, Rubeus Hagrid, that he’s actually a famous wizard

Explanation:

Hello. You did not present the trailer to which this question refers, which makes it difficult for it to be answered accurately. However, we can recognize a narrative hook in the option presented above.

The narrative hook is a literary technique that allows the story to present a transforming moment, which will modify the life and the trajectory of the main character, presenting a completely unexpected moment. The hook is added in a story to surprise and attract the reader's attention, leaving the reader curious about what will happen.

In the answer options presented in the question above, we can see that Harry lived a very monotonous and not very exciting life, until Hagrid finds him and tells him that he is a very famous wizard. This is an unexpected moment, of great impact and that will change Harry's life. This makes us identify these moments as a narrative hook.

Lines 1–8: What are three major areas affected by broadcast communication? Cite familiar examples of TV programs and advertisements to tell about the impact in the three areas.

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached neither specific text, article, or book, we can answer the following.

The three major areas affected by broadcast communication are political outcomes, economic decisions, and moral reasoning.

The best familiar examples of TV programs and advertisements to tell about the impact in the three areas are the advertisement we can see when we are watching the news on ABC or NBC, or any major news company, or the kind of advertisement during the TV series and soap operas.

TV hosts, public figures, and opinion leaders are hired to bias public opinion, How they do that? By the opinions expressed trying to support any political decision, specific legislation, or economic decision. These people and their messages aim to create a favorable public opinion so people instead of thinking, just react and accepts. And that is no good.

hard, doing your job with integrity, and taking care of
others. I am proud today to present these medals for

escaped the hardships of his childhood.
