Identify the style of the given dialogue. "This is to inform you that your book been has been rejected by our publishing company as it was not up to the required standard
Answer:
The dialogue is of the "outer dialogue" type and presents a formal language.
Explanation:
as we already know, dialogue is generally a conversation between two or more individuals, where everyone interacts within the same subject. However, the dialogue can also be done with a single individual who speaks to himself through his own thoughts. In the case of the dialogue presented in the question above, even if we have not been introduced to two individuals, we can consider it as an "outer dialogue" which is what the dialogues composed of a simple conversation between a person's friends are called. We can also see that the author uses a formal language, because those involved in the dialogue are talking about something commercial and that requires this type of language.

If light is invisible ,how does the surrounding area
become visible
Answer:
Reflection, absorption and re-emission.
To clarify, you mentioned light is not visible. Of course that is not true, we can see light. our retinas are sensitive to light within a certain range of frequencies. you may be commenting on the fact that if there is a beam of light in front of me traveling from right to left, I won’t see it. That’s true. If it were a ball I would see it. That is because light strikes the ball, is reflected, absorbed, and re-emitted or some combination of the above, then that light strikes my eye.
As a side note, if the ball were somehow changed by the light which struck it (change of course due to momentum of light impact) then I may not be able to trust that the image I see truly represents the current condition of the ball. But for most balls we can see, this is not the case. If, however, we do go smaller in our attempt to ‘see’ light, we won’t necessarily be able to trust our instinctive intuition. That is informed by the large scale world we observe with our unaided eye. We would have to learn to trust our observations however those observations come. And the observed truth of the very small, the world of quantum physics, is rather different than our unaided perception. It is nevertheless equally valid.
Back to the main point.
If you like to play the semantics game of asking whether you see the ball or see the light, suit yourself. The ball interacts with light, the light interacts with my eye, my eye sends data to my brain for interpretation. I’m fine with either version of ‘seeing’ the ball or ‘seeing’ the light.
Here’s an example to hopefully clarify.
I’m outside on a sunny day, no electric lights around, only sunlight. We all know sunlight is well collimated, one-directional. I’m in my back yard in the shade of my awning. No direct sunlight strikes me or the ball in my hand.
How do I see the ball in my hand?
Direct sunlight strikes a number of objects around me, the ground, my pool, etc. I don’t see any of that light. All of those objects reflect some light. That reflected light leaves the objects at certain limited angles based on the angle of incidence of the sunlight striking that surface. They also absorb some light. They then re-emit the light they absorb. Based on the surface characteristics, this re-emitted light shoots out in all directions away from the surface. They all become sources of multi-directional light nearby, just much lower intensity. Like a bunch of little light bulbs. So the ball I hold (in the awning’s shadow) is lit from a number of sources, just much more dimly than the ground lit by direct sunlight. And so the ball appears darker. It is in the shadow after all.
By the same principle, if the part of Earth you are standing on is in the shadow of the rest of the Earth, i.e. it is nighttime, then you won’t see anything. Unless of course there are other objects around Earth (moon, et al.) that absorb and re-emit light. When the sun, Earth, and moon are lined up so that the sunny side of the moon has a lot of its surface area facing towards Earth (full moon) then there is a lot of reflected and re-emited light striking Earth. Those are nights when it is easier to see by moonlight, which is of course sunlight.

How do I restate this? It's my first time doing RACE and I'm having trouble understanding how to use it correctly.
Okay, so you see the question so is asking What does he believe about lying? and it tells you to give an example that is in the article, right.
So restating means rewriting it to make it an answer. So the question is what does he believe about lying?
- Answer: you can put "Randy Cohen thought / or believes that lying is ... (put what he believes in ). For example, in paragraph (put the number) it tells the reader that (put something that supports your answer here).
So example he believes that lying is morally okay/ right. In paragraph 10, it explains that his views are that it helps people protect themselves or others.
I really hope that helps and if you have more questions just reply and i be happy to help!

Read this excerpt from Exploring the Titanic.
Soon I had spent more hours in the deep ocean than any other scientist. But the Titanic continued to haunt me. My oceanographic colleagues scoffed at my Titanic dreams and told me I should devote myself to "real" scientific projects.
Colleagues are
subjects in a science experiment.
friends who have different interests.
fellow workers in the same field of study.
family members who support each other
Answer:
Fellow workers in the same field of study.
Explanation:
Definition of colleague: "A person with whom one works in a profession or business."
Answer: C
Explanation:
I myself have ready books.
Is this Reflexive or
Intensive
Answer:
The answer should be reflexive
Explanation:
Because if you cut 'myself' out, it doesn't really make sense. A reflexive sentence is usually like, 'I myself went out to the mall last night'. If you cut myself out of this sentence it would become, 'I went out to the mall last night' which still makes a lot of sense. In the statement, 'I myself have ready books', when you cut out 'myself' it becomes, 'I have ready books' which does not really sound right to me. So it would be a Reflexive pronoun!!!! If it makes sense when you remove a 'self' statement then it is an Intensive pronoun. If it does not make sense, then it isn't.
Hope this helped.
Which page was when the theme of the Outsiders was loyalty and friendship?
Answer:
Chapter 4,6,9
Explanation:
“Dally’s ok,” Johnny said defensively, and I nodded. You take up for your buddies no matter what they do. When you’re in a gang, you stick up for the members.
Ponyboy explains Johnny’s defense of Dally after Dally harasses Cherry and Marcia, two Socs, at the drive-in theater. Despite Dally being the aggressor in the situation, Johnny justifies his actions in coming to Dally’s defense. Ponyboy concludes that loyalty is paramount and expected when you are in a gang. The theme of loyalty recurs throughout the book: When characters do not show loyalty, chaos ensues.
Our one rule besides Stick together is Don’t get caught.
Two-Bit explains the logic of a fight between two greasers. Dally has slashed the tires of Tim Shepard, the leader of another greaser gang, so Shepard will have to fight Dally. Two-Bit justifies his involvement in the feud to Cherry and Marcia: Even though Dally deserves what’s coming to him, Two-Bit will fight alongside Dally because greasers stick together. The situation contrasts the greasers’ loyalty with the Socs’, who he later says will gang up on each other for sport. Loyalty is presented as a point of pride for the greasers throughout the novel.
I looked around, startled. I hadn’t realized Johnny was right behind me all the way.Ponyboy reflects on the surprise he felt when he realized Johnny followed him into the burning building to help save children who were trapped inside. Ponyboy uses the word “startled” to convey the significant change he has just understood. The time in the church has bonded Ponyboy and Johnny beyond their social class. Their loyalty as friends, above and beyond being greasers, has taken root. The decision to risk their lives for non-gang members reveals the humanity beneath their rough exteriors, the courage that extends deeper than what’s expected from a fellow gang member.
“You’re a traitor to your own kind and not loyal to us.”
Ponyboy lashes out at Cherry after she refuses to visit Johnny in the hospital. Cherry finds herself caught between the two gangs: She’s been spying on the Socs for the greasers, but she can’t show solidarity with the greasers by visiting Johnny. Ponyboy’s condemnation of her hits hard, and even he knows it. Ponyboy’s sense of loyalty is challenged by Cherry, a person who has mixed loyalties, but to whom he’s bonded as a friend.But then, Darry’s gone through a lot in his twenty years, grown up too fast.
Ponyboy reflects on his older brother Darry’s life circumstances. After their parents were killed in a car accident, Darry took on the role of primary caregiver, and works two jobs just to provide for Ponyboy and Sodapop. Ponyboy understands the importance of loyalty within their family: If the three brothers don’t work together, they are in threat of being separated. The story portrays the loyalty of the Curtis family and the greasers as being part of a strict code of honor that goes beyond social class.
All great examples!!!
how can i say " so this shows how persons passion can leave an impression on other people How can i say this in different words help please
well, I guess it depends on what are you talking about.
are you referring to the impact that doing what you like with passion can affect other people's perspectives?
then you can say something like
"therefore, the passion shown by a person can affect or impact their perspectives, and even their motivation to achieve certain goals."
