1. Using the guidelines from this chapter and other sources, evaluate the usability of the page design depicted in PE Figure 8-1. For the most part the page seems usable; the changes I would make are as follows: o Everything should be able to fit on one page to prevent the user from having to scroll. o No indication of a home button, FAQ button o Navigation is not very user friendly, would suggest the use of cookie crumbs. o Not sure what the progress meter is, if it is the page loading then the page load to slow, maybe cut down on the picture sizes to speed loading o Although the use of multiple languages is something the customers may have asked for, I would incorporate a language decoder/changer so that the page is of one language and the customer can select the language to display.
Try to visualize the egg membrane (egg without the shell) as if it were a cell in your body. Using your knowledge from this Eggsperiment, describe how food nutrients would eventually pass from your intestines to your bloodstream, and from your bloodstream into the cells of your other organs, such that they could function properly. 5. Select any two of the following and respond using all of the terms: diffusion, concentration, cell membrane, permeable: * Explain why some vegetables are intermittently sprayed with a light misting of water at the grocery store. * Explain why flowers do not wilt as quickly if they are kept in water after they are cut.
I agree with several points that this article makes. The first one being that translation is by nature is imperfect. To my way of thinking, translations are best conveyed with the reader is able to grasp the same emotions/connections that were intended by the original author. Language barriers play a huge role in translation because often, it is limited to the words that are common to both languages and the test are just depictions of the translators interpretation of the text. The Text states that Moliere wrote many different types of plays and they were well known for their timeless characters, which is still well known.
Remember that commas are very important because they break up sentences into manageable parts. They also tell the reader where to make a slight pause to avoid confusion. Thus, make sure to use a comma whenever needed. Below are the other uses of a comma: 1. to separate items in a series: I like dancing, singing, and acting. 2. to join two independent clauses with a coordinating conjunction for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so
Investigate the ways spoken language is used by a TV presenter Taking into consideration that we live in the UK we can easily affirm we speak English, whether we are native speakers or not. But of course there is more than one type of English, from the proper English of Received Pronunciation (RP), which the Queen speaks, to the Basic English, which only includes basic words and phrases, most likely to be used by the lower class of society. Obviously, where there is an upper and a lower it also has to be a middle, in this case the middle of the spoken English language being the Estuary English (EE), a variety of modified regional speeches, which is a mixture of non-regional and southern English pronunciation and intonation. Knowing that EE is native from the southern part of England, the most appropriate example of a famous EE speaker is Jamie Oliver, as he was born and raised in Essex. Although Jamie Oliver adapts his speech to suit where he is and who he is with, there are certain aspects of his idiolect that do not change, such as pauses and fillers, the most common fillers he uses being “ya’know”, “like” and “err”.

By glancing at text H and G, we can see that the format of both texts is an advert and the main purpose of both texts is to persuade. This is evident through the heavy use of adjectives such as ‘brighter’, ‘lighter’ in text H and ‘high’, ‘big’ in text G. However it must be noted that the type of adjectives used within text H are concise in terms of their meaning, for example ‘lighter’ whereas in text G, adjectives such as ‘big’ are used which are broad and this pragmatically can be interpreted by the reader in different ways as there is no uniform scale of how big is big. Also, the use of declaratives in both texts also provides the assumption that both texts are indeed designed to persuade, for example, in text H it says ‘more capacious’ and in text G it says ‘high efficiency engine...lively acceleration’. The use of declaratives makes the reader aware of the features of the car throughout both texts and therefore sways them further into liking the cars. Pronouns such as ‘you’ are used within text H, similarly they are used in text G, ‘it’.
You can incorporate things like this in your everyday life. These are just a few of the positive things in the vast field of cultural appropriation. Now, we get to the negatives of culture appropriation. I could honestly write the whole paper about this subject, but that’ll be too easy. When a style of a culture is appropriated, the people of that particular culture tend to have overwhelming feelings of anger and the thought of having been used.
When writers are analyzing opposing positions, they need to supply a great deal of information, precisely and accurately. They add much of this information in phrases that interrupt the flow of a sentence. The problem, forgetting to set off an interrupting phrase with commas can make sentences difficult to read or unclear. These tools can be helpful, but do not rely on them exclusively to catch errors in your text: spelling checkers cannot catch misspelling that is themselves words, such as to for too. Grammar checkers miss some problems; something’s give faulty advice for fixing problems, and can flag correct items as wrong.
