Foreign languages are extremely important to students' education. After taking my first Spanish course, I saw a significant
increase in my English grade. As a student in Spanish, I learned how to form verbs and verb phrases in that language. Learning
about verbs and verb phrases in a different language gave me a different perspective about the same parts of speech in English
This new knowledge made English class much easier, and I received good grades in both classes last year. Learning foreign
languages helps students in many different subjects.
lan wrote a argumentative speech to convince the school board to adopt more foreign language classes at his school. Do the
examples from this part of lan's speech support his position?
no, because they do not give a detailed explanation of the benefits
yes, because they explain specifically how the classes helped him
yes, because they state that lan took a Spanish class
D)
no, because they do not give specific information

answer: d

explanation:

her eyes water as she let her go

her mothers hand goes limp

i decided to stay late in the laboratory to continue my experiment with the lightbulb. at midnight, thomas edison opened the door and walked in with his head held high.

1. he leaned on the wall and observed me carefully.

2. his harsh scrutiny made me self-conscious of my skills in the lab.

3. perhaps it was just me, but the air in the laboratory began to thicken as i found myself having difficulty to breathe.

4. i turned to look at him fully as i mentally prepared myself for what my very first words would be to thomas edison.

5. the next couple of seconds shocked me. it wasn't me who spoke, but rather him and with diction i could never think of using in a simple sentence.
