Mark is writing to the council to contest a parking fine. Select the sentences that contain language inappropriate for a formal text.


Dear Sir or Madam,

I’m not happy at all about receiving a fine for parking at the local supermarket. I am certain I was not there longer than 45 minutes and should not, therefore, be fined. But here I am, holding a letter from you saying that, somehow, I was in fact there for nearly an hour! As if! If you can prove it, I’ll pay it – and not a penny from me until you do!

Regards,

Grant

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

I’m not happy at all

I’ll pay it

Explanation:

I’m not happy at all

I’ll pay it

What makes both of them wrong is the fact that they were both abbreviated. In a formal letter, we are supposed to keep everything whatsoever we write formal, and as such, "I'm", in place of "I am" and "I'll" in place of "I will" is quite wrong for a formal letter, since the former is an informal way of writing the later.

Changing both context however, to "I am not happy at all", and "I will pay it" makes it fit into the requirements for a formal letter.

How does Squeaky react when Mr. Pearson suggests that she let someone else win the race?

She looks around for Gretchen because she is embarrassed.

She tells him to stop talking because she is sad.

She stares at him and then walks away because she is angry.

She ignores him and leaves to find Raymond because she is nervous.

Answers

Answer:

She stares at him and then walks away because she is angry.  

Explanation:

"Raymond's Run" by Toni Cade Bambara is a short story about a little girl named Hazel Elizabeth Deborah "Squeaky" Parker and her 'job' taking care of her disabled brother Raymond. The short story deals with how Squeaky challenges the traditional beliefs of what a girl should be like, or the acceptance of one's true identity towards self-acceptance and respect.

Squeaky loves running and she always wins the big races. During the annual May Day program, before the start of the "fifty-yard dash", Mr. Pearson suggests that she lets someone win this year. But Squeaky, as competitive as ever and not one to relinquish her dominion, looked hard at the man, making him unable to even finish his sentence. Squeaky admits "I give him such a look he couldn’t finish putting that idea into words", stomping away from the spot.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

Answer:

She stares at him and then walks away because she is angry.

The following drinks all have a similar amount of alcohol
by volume. a 12 oz. bottle of beer, a 4 oz. glass of wine, a
1.5 oz. shot.

1-True

2-False

Answers

False! Not all are one drink, 6 oz of wine is.

No, the following drinks don't have a similar amount of alcohol, by volume. a 12 oz. bottle of beer, a 4 oz. glass of wine, a 1.5 oz. shot. So, the correct answer is false.

An average 12-ounce bottle of beer has around 5% alcohol by volume (ABV), a standard 4-ounce glass of wine has about 12% ABV, and an average 1.5-ounce shot of liquor has about 40% ABV. Accordingly, a 12-ounce bottle of beer contains roughly 0.6 ounces of alcohol, a 4-ounce glass of wine contains roughly 0.48 ounces, and a 1.5-ounce shot of liquor contains roughly 0.6 ounces of alcohol.

A 12-ounce bottle of beer therefore contains roughly the same amount of alcohol as two 4-ounce glasses of wine or half of a 1.5-ounce shot of booze.

The disease that concerned Dr. Dowell was avian influenza, or bird flu. This virus usually strikes poultry, like chickens, ducks, and turkeys. It's rare for bird flu to make people sick.

In fact, by 2003, only about 40 people had died from bird flu in the whole world. And all of them had gotten it from handling sick birds or breathing in their secretions, like saliva.

In some places in Thailand, chickens run freely through homes. Some are even kept as pets. In those conditions, there's always a danger of a bird flu outbreak.

In your own words, describe how "Tintern Abbey" reflects the characteristics of romanticism.

Answers

Explanation:

Wordsworth means the natural elegance of the Tintern Abbey and the capacity of its environment to offer him harmony in his poetry "Tintern Abbey," It emphasizes the ability of existence to cure, much like many sentimental poems.

Answer:In his poem "Tintern Abbey," Wordsworth describes the natural beauty of the abbey and the ability of its surroundings to give him peace. Like most romantic poems, it emphasizes the power of nature to heal. The poet also refers to his sister in the poem, introducing a personal detail from his own life. This practice of referring to incidents or people in the poet’s life became a mainstay in romantic poetry. Mourning the loss of nature due to industrialization, and the taking over of woods and streams by cities, was also a common theme in many romantic poems. In "Tintern Abbey," the poet mourns the loss of the mountains and gloomy woods he loved as a boy, but suggests that the moments he spent with nature have the power to console him even in the din of the crowded city.

“Unfortunately, most of the screening tests for cancer that are being promoted to the
public don't have good evidence [that they save lives]."

Answers

Answer:

A. testing for a disease

Explanation:

Cancer screening is a process that includes checking the body or certain organs for cancer even if there are no symptoms. It means to screen the body or organ to make sure if there is any cancer cell that has not produced symptom, but which can result in more serious illness.  Some of the cancers, like breast or cervical cancers, have proven to be less deadly if tests are done on a regular basis.

Yet, as the passage says, most of the time the tests for cancers done on seemingly a healthy person will not help to save a life. Instead, they are promoted even though we are not sure if tests do help at all with battling cancer.
