which is an advantage of speaking? a. you can keep a permanent record of your conversation. b. you can immediately answer questions your audience might have. c. you can provide an unbiased and unemotional account of events. d. you can take the time to organize your thoughts and word choice.

Answers

The advantage of speaking is that B. you can immediately answer questions your audience might have.
You do not have this opportunity when it comes to writing - you first need to have your audience read your writ, and then let them ask you questions, if even that is possible. 

Which of the following statements is false?a. Adverbs modify verbs.
b. Adverbs modify adjectives.
c. Adverbs modify nouns.
d. Adverbs modify adverbs.

Answers

The correct answer is letter c. Adverbs modify nouns. Adverb is a part of speech that modifies a verb, an adjective and another adverb. It is a word or phrase that modifies or qualifies an adjective, verb, or other adverb or a word group, expressing a relation of place, time, circumstance, manner, cause, degree, etc. (e.g., gently, quite, then, there ).

C.

This is because an adverb is a word that modifies/describes a verb -he sings loudly-, an adjective -very tall-, another adverb -ended too quickly-, or even a whole sentence -Fortunately, I had brought an umbrella-. Adverbs often end in -ly, but some -such as fast- look exactly the same as their adjective counterparts. So, everything but answer C. is actually an adverb.

Hope this helps! I know the other guy answered but I wanted to anyway.

Answers

The event that is credited with the beginning of the American Civil Rights Movement began with a woman named Rosa Parks C. ON A BUS.

Rosa Louise McCauley Parks, an African-American woman, rode a Montgomery Bus Line bus on 1st December 1955. During her time, black and white people have assigned places including inside the bus.

She sat in the bus section where black people were assigned to seat. However, when a white man entered as a passenger and the white seats have already been filled up, Rosa was told by the bus driver to give up her seat for the white man. She did not obey the bus driver's order. She was arrested for her disobedience.

Her act of defiance and the resulting Montgomery Bus Boycott became an important symbol for Civil Rights Movement.
