how does the author use details and evidence to support their central idea?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

is this a general question for all authors, or was there supposed to be something attached?

Answer 2
Details, major and minor, support the main idea by telling how, what, when, where, why, how much, or how many. Locating the topic, main idea, and supporting details helps you understand the point(s) the writer is attempting to express.

2 injured in vehicle collision at Ram Maruti Road.
Anusha Banerjee
Thane, 10th June 2014
Two men were injured on Ram Maruti Road yesterday when a motorist failed to see an oncoming car. Rakesh Sharma (34) didn’t notice the Maruti Zen car driven by Sumant Dasgupta (27) because he was distracted by a noisy wedding procession on the road. Both the men are residents of Vrindavan society and were immediately taken to Dr. Salvi’s Hospital at Ram Maruti Road, Thane. Eyewitnesses say that even though Dasgupta tried to avert the situation by applying breaks, it didn’t help. Though he has escaped with minor abrasions, Sharma had to bear the full brunt of the impact. He has a broken nose and an injured shin bone. Both the men are recuperating at the hospital.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

I have used all the words and phrases given in the instructions. Feel free to change anything:

Two long time friends, Raj and Rohit, decided to join a camp and experience some time away from civilization, noisy cities, and pollution. They were excited about the idea of being immersed in nature, counting on their survival skills and instincts. One morning, they went out together to explore the surroundings and ended up getting lost. Checking their bags, they found no compasses or anything they could use to find their way back. The more they walked, the more they felt stranded. Away from the camp, their cries and shouts could not be heard by anyone, except for wild animals. And, indeed, Raj and Rohit soon heard a “thump thump” sound approaching. Their hearts beating fast, they watched as a large elephant came closer and closer. The animal trumpeted angrily, as if it was distressed by their presence and wanted to scare them away. The two friends were unable to move, afraid the elephant would chase them in case they tried to run away. As the elephant came towards them, Raj suddenly remembered Rohit had brought a balloon in his bag. Raj recalled asking his friend why he had brought such a useless item along, but now he realized the balloon could actually save them. He asked Rohit for the balloon and immediately started blowing. Soon, he had a big balloon, its rubber as thin as paper, ready to pop. Raj hit it hard with his hand – “bang” – and the loud noise scared the angry animal. The elephant turned away, and Raj and Rohit left out a breath of relief. Not long afterwards, some people from the camp found and saved them, taking them back rapidly.

Raj sat at a broad table in the back of the school library and ran his
finger quickly over the text of a book called Syntactic Conventions in
Idiomatic Expressions. On his left, a stack of 12 more books - all
thick, all with brown, black, and earth-red covers - sat and waited for
his consumption. Suddenly, Millicent, a troublemaker he knew from
history class, peddled through the library on a bicycle while a teacher
chased her. Raj looked up briefly, raised an eyebrow, and then went
back to reading.
What does the dialogue in the passage most clearly reveal about Raj?
A. He is nervous.
B. He is arrogant.
C. He is bored.
D. He is serious.

D. He is serious.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

This question tells us that the Number of songs bought by charlotte is equal to 16

One - fourth = 1/4 of these songs are pop songs

To get the total number of songs that are pop songs, we multiply 16 with 1/4

= 16 x 1/4

= 16/4

= 4.

So in conclusion, the total number of pop songs that charlotte bought is equal to 4.

Please help me find the main idea my teacher about to call on me and i am pi ss A week after the murders, police raided Spahn Ranch, but not because of those heinous crimes. Manson and most of the family were arrested instead for stealing cars. But they were released on a technicality and fled to Death Valley. There, they were arrested again in multiple waves of police raids between Oct. 10 and 12, 1969. In addition to a series of thefts and generally terrorizing the locals, Manson had set fire to some heavy equipment owned by Death Valley National Monument rangers, which was what really brought the cops down on the family [source: Sanders].

Answers

Answer:

They may have been able to avoid being arrested longer if they hadn't committed other crimes, such as stolen cars and setting fire to some heavy equipment.  

Explanation:

I think the main idea is that the police were very close to Manson and the family, they were even in jail, but the police hadn't realized they committed the crimes.  It seems the family then became a little too confident, leading to the police arresting them for the crimes.

Hello. You did not inform the essay to which these questions refer, which makes it impossible for them to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

If the author is presenting a point in an essay it is because he is positioning himself favorably in relation to the subject addressed in the essay. This means that the author's view on this subject is positive and that he will use arguments and evidence to justify that view.

The counterpoint, on the other hand, seeks to debate and position itself against the point raised by the author. In this case, the author shows a negative view, where he presents arguments and evidence that seek to devalue the point.

A figure of speech is a word or phrase that is used in a non-literal way to create an effect. This effect may be rhetorical as in the deliberate arrangement of words to achieve something poetic, or imagery as in the use of language to suggest a visual picture or make an idea more vivid. Overall, figures of speech function as literary devices because of their expressive use of language. Words are used in other ways than their literal meanings or typical manner of application.

Write a short definition for the prediction step of previewing.​

Answers

Answer:

Previewing the text to get an overview

Previewing a text means that you get an idea of what it is about without actually reading the main body of the text.

2. Skimming

Skimming involves running your eye very quickly over large chunks of text. It is different from previewing because skimming involves the paragraph text. Skimming allows you to pick up some of the main ideas without paying attention to detail. It is a fast process. A single chapter should take only a few minutes.

3. Scanning

Scanning is sweeping your eyes (like radar) over part of a text to find specific pieces of information.

4. Intensive reading

Intensive reading is detailed, focused, ‘study’ reading of those important parts, pages or chapters.

This is 4 general steps, and will get you a 100%.

Explanation:

Predicting means that you take all of the clues you’ve collected, combine them with your prior knowledge about the topic, and make an educated guess about what the text will say.
