5 paragraph persuasive essay romeo and juliet
Answer:
The play "Romeo And Juliet" by William Shakespeare, is about a boy named Romeo and a girl named Juliet. Their family are enemies, which means that they are always fighting with each other. At a party, Romeo and Juliet meet for the first time not knowing who each other are, later that night that they are enemies. They went on and fell in love with each other and get married after meeting for only one night. This is where all of the drama kicks in. After the drama gets to their head and they kill themselves. In Romeo and Juliet Capulet’s and Montague’s, Friar Lawrence, and Balthasar are all responsible for the tragic deaths of Romeo and Juliet.
The Capulet’s and Montague’s are responsible for the death of Romeo and Juliet. The reaosn why is because of all of the hatred between both of the families. "And then awake as from a pleasant sleep. Shall Romeo by my letters know our drift.” This was the plan that had convinced Juliet to try it. This could’ve worked if Romeo could’ve waited for the letter.
Lastly, there is Balthasar that is responsible for the death of Romeo. The reason why he is at fault is because he got to Romeo before the letter carrier. Balthasar should’ve never went to Romeo because of him. Basically, Romeo and Juliet would’ve actually ran away today. I am pretty sure I understand why Balthasar probably told Romeo just because he was Romeo’s servant. Although, if he just didn’t come Romeo would’ve gotten the letter. For example, “Then she is well and nothing can be ill. Her body sleeps in Capel’s monument, and her immortal part with angels lives. I saw her laid low in her kindred’s vault… O, pardon me for bringing these ill news,". This evidence shows how Balthasar informed Romeo on Juliet’s death.
In Romeo and Juliet Capulet’s and Montague’s, Friar Lawrence, and Balthasar are responsible for the tragic deaths of Romeo and Juliet. This shows you how all three of them affected Romeo and Juliet’s death. If you have read or watched the book or movie, then you would most likely believe that they are the reason for their deaths. The deaths could also be their faults as well they should’ve probably stood up to their parents and tell them that they were in love.

What is the effect of the symbol of the radio on meaning in Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl?
. It represents freedom of information in a time of oppression
. It represents the censorship imposed by the Nazis
. It symbolizes illegal goods hidden from the Nazis.
. It symbolizes the Jews in hiding who will one day be free.
Answer:
It represents freedom of information in a time of oppression
Explanation:
During Anne Frank’s time, radio was one of the few media of information. It played an important role that intensified in the war. We see in The Diary of a Young Girl how crucial radio was to Anne and her family so they could get a source of information from other countries. By listening to news that wasn’t coming from the Nazis and which weren’t part of their propaganda, people defied the government and oppression.
Anne even describes how people were trying hard to get hold of the radio in order to boost their morals by listening to foreign news, music, entertainment. It was not just about the news, but also about the simple spark of joy and promise of freedom beyond the war.
These are all reasons why we can recognize radio as a symbol of freedom and resilience to the oppression in The diary of a Young Girl.
Answer: It represents freedom of information in a time of oppression.

Answer:
The correct answer is A) a big vocabulary... doesn't always positively contribute to a written work
Explanation:
It is always more important to have something to say thank to try to sound big and end up saying nothing.
For example,
For example, The respledency of an edict is inconsequencial, nonexlporative and amount to hocus pocus when juxtaposed with a lucidly amalgamated writ.
Secondly, the goal of writing is to communicate effectievely and efficiently. When the reader has to consistently check the dictionary to comprehend the meaning of words in every sentence, then there is something wrong.
Best practice is to be direct to the point, using simple words that come in active, engaging and short sentences.
For example,
It is easier to read a very simple sentence than a complex one.

b. They say that doing homework leads to his success in school.
c. This encyclopedia says that English has words from many different languages.
d. I use online references because I can always find what I need online.

The sentence that involves a pronoun along with an ambiguous, confusing, or absent antecedent would be:
b). They say that doing homework leads to his success in school.
'Antecedent' is described as 'a word or expression that is referred to through a pronoun.' It functions to inform the reader about the reference that is being provided through the pronoun.All the given sentences employ antecedents correctly but the second sentence i.e. 'They say...school' fails to use it aptly. In the second sentence, it is unclear that whom the pronouns 'they' or 'his' are referring to.Thus, it confuses the readers and hence, option B is the correct answer.

B Human brain activity depends on electricity , so scientists can improve brain function through electricity C Elon Musk's Neuralink is developing a more efficient way to connect human brains with computers as a means to improve brain function . D Elon Musk believes that artificial intelligence is superior to human intelligence and , without his technology , humans cannot compete with AI
Answer:
C. Elon Musk's Neuralink is developing a more efficient way to connect human brains with computers as a means to improve brain function.
Explanation:
You have not provided the title of the article, but I assume it's about Elon Musk's company called Neuralink. The central idea of the article is that Neuralink is developing a more efficient way to connect human brains with computers as a means to improve brain function. They say that this could allow people with neurological conditions, such as dementia, Parkinson's disease, and spinal cord injuries, to control phones or computers with their minds. Musk does mention that artificial intelligence is superior to human intelligence, but that is not the central idea of the article. What matters is how this technology could help people.
