Read the passage “ Well they got gumption,anyhow. They told them white folks up yonder in the office just what they thought of ‘em “That’s what they did.”

Which word phrase best indicates the use of dialect in “gumption”?

A.)In the office

B.)Just what they thought

C.)Anyhow

D.)Up yonder

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Hello everyone and the CORRECT answer is D.) Up yonder have a nice day and i hope this helps :)


Answer 2
Answer:

D.)Up yonder

"Up yonder" is the best fit for the question. It uses the same dialect as "gumption". Dialect is a way of speaking that is specific to a particular region or culture. Other phrases that show this dialect are "them white folks" and "thought of 'em". "In the office" and "Just what they thought" are common phrases that are not specific to any region or culture. "Anyhow" isn't as widely used as the other two phrases, but it is also not considered specific to any particular group.

The words that best matches the words highlighted are as follows:

2) Option C: Wants

3) Option C: Uncertain

• In the first question, the correct answer is C. Color because one of the synonyms of hue is Color.  

The rest of the options are incorrect because hue does not mean texture, height or arrangement.

• In the second question, the correct answer is C. Wants because it is nearest in meaning to the word list. According to the above quote, the speaker says that he can help the one who wants to hunt, even if he doesn’t want to do it himself anymore.

If Teresa's daughter is my daughter's mother, what am I to Teresa?

Answers

As there are no options, there are two possible answers.

If Teresa's daughter is my daughter's mother, you could be Teresa's daughter or Teresa's son-in-law.

In the riddle, three generations are mentioned: Teresa's, Teresa's daughter's, and Teresa's duaghter's daughter's. Imagine a family tree:

Teresa

Teresa's daughter ↔ Teresa's son-in-law

Teresa's daughter's daughter.

As it refers to a daughter's mother, you can rule out Teresa's daughter's daughter because it was not said whether she is a mother or nor. And as it also says Teresa's daughter, you can rule out Teresa because Teresa can't be her own daughter. So it can either be Teresa's daughter or Teresa's son-in-law.

You would be her daughter

You wouldn't want to persuade that it is good, or that no opinion is wrong in this case. I think the best option would to produce negative thoughts in the excerpt about that idea. 

Then, the answer would be: use language that calls up powerful negative feelings
