How do I figure out the purpose of an article?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

Explanation:

When writers explain, they tell their readers how something works. An article about the discovery and use of electricity, for instance, fulfills the purpose of explanation. When writers describe, they provide sensory details that allow their readers to form a mental picture of some person, place, or thing.

Answers

I'm going to go with the following: A national survey company picks one phone number from each area code in America to call and ask for an opinion on current political issues.

The reason I went with this option is because in statistic terms people are chosen from a larger group making them a subset. The individuals are being chosen randomly but yet the individuals all have the same likelihood of being chosen as anyone in the subset group.

Hopefully this helps and makes sense.

Who might be the main characters in a world parents type of creation story? A. a turtle and a raven B. a higher power and a human C. the sky and the earth D. the spirits of humans

Answers

The correct answer is C. The sky and the earth

Explanation:

A creation myth or story is a type of narrative usually created by the members of a culture to explain the creation of Earth and life on it. Additionally, these stories can be of different types including ex-nihilo stories, earth diver or world parents. In the case of world parents creation stories or myths, earth and other elements are created as the parents are split which in most myths occurs as the Sky and the Earth divide to form the world. But can also be explained as two beings unite or as one of them is dismembered to form the world; however, in most cases, it occurs as the parents split and it displays the Sky and the Earth as main characters. Therefore, the ones that would be the main characters in a world parents type of creation story are the sky and the Earth as these are seen as the two entities that split to form the Earth.

C. The sky and the earth
