The correct answer is Precise verbs are easier to imagine
Explanation:
Precise verbs differ from vague verbs because these refer to very specific actions or states. For example, the verbs "mutter" or "crawl" are precise verbs because these refer to very specific actions. On the other hand, the verb "move" is vague because this does not explain how the movement occurs. Moreover, precise verbs allow the reader to imagine precisely the action described, and therefore are easier to imagine and are more suitable to create precise descriptions.

Dr. Williams knew exactly what to do when faced with the prospect of performing heart surgery
Dr. Williams was not only a skilled doctor, he was also a kind and thoughtful person
Dr. Williams became very wealthy and famous but never lost sight of his purpose

“Daniel Hale Williams was not foolish-on the contrary he was very careful”
“Dr. Williams was called in. The doctor reassured the patient with his calm, dignified manner”

solidly rooted in society. Remarkably, at present all
major political parties are deeply rooted in society. The
UDF’s formidable organization, when combined with
the staying power and enduring unity of the BSP and
the loyalty of the MRF’s followers and activists, is
giving rise to a polity in which parties—rather than
spellbinding leaders, the state apparatus, independent
local strongmen, the military, or private oligarchs—are
the central actors in political life. As the Italian experi-
ence demonstrates, pluralistic partyocracy can engender
clientelism, dysfunctional politicization of parts of the
private sector, and political sclerosis. The Italian expe-
rience also shows that pluralistic partyocracy can spur
consolidation of democracy and progress toward
prosperity in a poor, peripheral, and demoralized land.

Explanation:
When a sentence consists of two or more independent clauses, they need to be properly connected. One of the ways to connect two independent clauses is to use the semicolon. The semicolon is used when the clauses are closely related to each other, usually with one of them explaining the other. This is the case in sentence A.
Sentence B is a complex sentence. It consists of one independent and one subordinate clause connected by a comma. There is no semicolon in this sentence.
Sentence C is the second closest to being correct. What's wrong, though, is that these two clauses aren't closely related to each other.
Sentence D also a complex sentence, and the use of the semicolon here is incorrect, because an independent and subordinate clause can't be connected to each other by a semicolon.

The statement of the Soviet delegate here tonight is a very good case in point on this. The Soviet amendment of article 22 introduces new elements into the article without improving the committed text and again introduces specific reference to "discrimination." As was repeatedly pointed out in committee 3, the question of discrimination is comprehensively covered in article 2 of the Declaration, so that its restatement elsewhere is completely unnecessary and also has the effect of weakening the comprehensive principles stated in article 2. The new article proposed by the Soviet delegation is but a restatement of State obligation, which the Soviet delegation attempted to introduce into practically every article in the Declaration. It would convert the Declaration into a document stating obligations on states, thereby changing completely its character as a statement of principles to serve as a common standard of achievement for the members of the United Nations. –Speech on the adoption

Who is Roosevelt’s main audience for this passage?
a three-member committee
the UN General Assembly
Soviets living in the US
the Soviet delegation
Answer:
the UN General Assembly
Explanation:
This speech was made by Eleanor Roosevelt, where she reinforces the importance of establishing a document in favor of human rights. This document is the Declaration of Human Rights, which contains universal and irrevocable rights that must be offered to any citizen anywhere in the world.
This speech was very influential for the construction of this document, which, as you already know, was made by the UN, so we can guarantee that the public that Roosevelt wanted to reach with this speech was the members of the UN General Assembly.

What do you think of “Killer Kane” so far? Describe his personality and his physical attributes.
This is from Freak the Mighty
Answer:
Max’s father. Like Max, Kenny is extremely tall and wide, but unlike Max, Kenny is cruel and unfeeling Grim refers to him as an “accident of nature.” Grim’s feelings are fueled by the fact that about a decade before the novel begins, Kenny murdered Annie, his wife and Max’s mother, with his bare hands. He’s in prison for this offense at the beginning of the novel, but since Max looks so much like Kenny, many people torment Max for looking like “Killer Kane.” Kenny’s terrifying effect on people, as well as his grasp of how to effectively use storytelling to get his way, comes to the forefront when Kenny is released from prison on parole. Kenny gets out in the first place because he’s able to convince the parole board that he reformed himself by discovering Christianity, though Grim and Gram understand that this is a manipulative lie. When Max hears that Kenny is getting out, he has a violent outburst that resembles a panic attack because he’s so terrified at the thought of having to see Kenny. This reaction isn’t unfounded: Kenny kidnaps Max out of his bed on Christmas Eve. The way that Max describes his experience of being kidnapped suggests that Kenny has the power to sap the hope and the light out of a room. He’s impossibly huge and impossibly strong and he gets whatever he wants. Though Kenny is capable of acting gently, he only does so when it suits him and any gentle gestures inevitably hold a threat of violence. When Kenny does talk to Max about what happened to Annie, he cries and he crafts a compelling narrative of his supposedly wrongful conviction and subsequent redemption. When Kenny later tries to murder Loretta Lee in the exact same way he killed Annie for trying to rescue Max, however, Max understands that Kenny is still the violent and cruel man he’s always been. Ultimately, Freak’s ingenuity results in Kenny’s arrest, and Kenny eventually pleads guilty to the charges against him, meaning that he’ll be in prison for decades after the novel ends.

Write an informative essay on the topic of immigration. Your essay will use research to describe the changes and challenges that todays immigrant children experience.
Answer:
immigration has be up for years. immigration is for people that are not sapose to be in the usa. these people are punish and are gonna need to be token out with money. it depends on how long your card is not valid. immigration is used on most Mexicans. this is racest because there is no American that i know that had to be immigrated.
immigration is used to keep people safe everwere altho it sounds raspiest people still have to go throw it. it is very hard to get by. most people dont last it. the chalenges back then were color of your skin for immigration back them any black guy was not allowed here but now they are. we have change a lot in the corse of many years. no matter what happened back then we can all now see a norther day
Answer:
The changing environments throughout the ages have caused the movement of thousands of families out of their homelands. Whether forced to make such decisions or doing so by their own desires, all immigrants have had to survive the physical and psychological challenges encountered along the way. To speak about the experiences of all these different people using the same ideas and examples would be quite inaccurate. They all, however, had to live through similar situations and deal with similar problems. Many of them succeeded and found the better future they were looking for. Many others found only hardship and experienced the destruction of their hopes and dreams. All of them were transformed.…show more content…
Many immigrants feel the same way about the things they leave. I know I did when I left my home country of Bulgaria. My parents were hoping to provide my brother and me with a brighter future by moving to the US, the country where anything is possible, or so everyone said. It was 1998 and I was thirteen. I still remember the day we left and how hard it was for my whole family. Through tears, I said goodbye to all my relatives and friends whom I cherished and loved. I felt as if the whole world was closing up in me. I was being taken away from everything I knew and everything I loved. The cool breeze of that autumn day rushed through me as if foreshadowing a hard and cold future. The moment came for us to get on the plane. I wanted to stop time and run away, back to everything I knew. But that was impossible; the choice of turning back did not exist. As I was going up the stairs of the plane, I looked around at the airport and its surroundings. I looked and saw the warmth and light of the familiar places. I took a deep breath of the air around me, knowing it was the last time I could sense it, and went in. It really was hard for but are not limited to age, level of skill, gender, economic class, language(s) spoken, and ethnic origin. It can be said that different groups of people faced drastically different challenges in the world of work; however, some of these challenges are more common within more groups of people than just one. Without a doubt, all Americans faced economic and social issues during this time because of corporate corruption and the lack of laws and programs that protected families from being overworked.
