Answers

A paragraph is a group of sentences related to a particular topic, or central theme.  Every paragraph has a key concept or main idea.  The main idea is the most important piece of information the author wants you to know about the concept of that paragraph.

When authors write they have an idea in mind that they are trying to get across.  This is especially true as authors compose paragraphs.  An author organizes each paragraph's main idea and supporting details in support of the topic or central theme, and each paragraph supports the paragraph preceding it.

A writer will state his/her main idea explicitly somewhere in the paragraph.  That main idea may be stated at the beginning of the paragraph, in the middle, or at the end.  The sentence in which the main idea is stated is the topic sentence of that paragraph.

The topic sentence announces the general theme ( or portion of the theme) to be dealt with in the paragraph.  Although the topic sentence may appear anywhere in the paragraph, it is usually first – and for a very good reason.  This sentence provides the focus for the writer while writing and for the reader while reading.  When you find the topic sentence, be sure to underline it so that it will stand out not only now, but also later when you review.

Identifying the Topic:

The first thing you must be able to do to get at the main idea of a paragraph is to identify the topic – the subject of the paragraph.  Think of the paragraph as a wheel with the topic being the hub – the central core around which the whole wheel (or paragraph) spins.  Your strategy for topic identification is simply to ask yourself the question, "What is this about?"  Keep asking yourself that question as you read a paragraph, until the answer to your question becomes clear.  Sometimes you can spot the topic by looking for a word or two that repeat.  Usually you can state the topic in a few words.

What is a phrase?

A phrase is a group of words or singular words acting as a grammatical unit. For instance, the English expression very happy squirrel is a noun phrase which contains the adjective phrase very happy. Phrases can consist of a single word or a complete sentence.

In theoretical linguistics, phrases are often analyzed as units of syntactic structure such as a constituent. There is a difference between the common use of the term phrase and its technical use in linguistics. In common usage, a phrase is usually a group of words with some special idiomatic meaning or other significance, such as all rights reserved, economical with the truth, kick the bucket, and the like. It may be a euphemism, a saying or proverb, a fixed expression, a figure of speech, etc.

In linguistics, these are known as phrasemes.

Which statement best describes a recurring theme in this passage?

Answers

Answer: C. Pride and effort go hand in hand.

Explanation:

Assuming this is based on the story, The Marfa Marlins by Jon Caswell, the above is the correct answer.

In the story it is shown that the coaches and the team members did not feel pride in being in the Marlins and this led to them putting in little to no effort with the coaches making jokes instead of coaching and the players showing up late for practice.

Paul Scoggins tried to change this and challenges the coach to a little competition which he wins with the penalty being that the coach would go bald. This action led the coach to feel pride in the team and try to put in the effort to win the district. This attitude influenced others into becoming proud as well and then putting in the effort.

Use your graphic organizer and include textual evidence.Heres the essay:Take Another Look at Electric CarsThe average automobile driver pays $2,000 annually for gasoline. That $2,000 of gas is contributing to both the United States dependency on foreign countries and environmental pollution. Electric cars are beneficial for their owners and for the environment. Anybody who is buying a new car should consider purchasing an electric car.Electric vehicles have a reputation as being expensive, but that has changed in the past few years. Purchase prices have been dropping and a federal tax credit lowers their actual cost even more. The average cost of a brand new gas automobile is approximately $31,500. Most new electric cars are priced between $30,000 and $40,000. That is a higher initial cost, but when you factor in the $7,500 federal tax credit (and possible additional state tax credits, depending on where you live), the price becomes comparable to that of a gasoline car. The annual costs associated with owning a car are much lower with an electric car. The average driver pays about $2,000 a year for gas. The average cost of electricity for a year of driving is $500. That will save $1,500 a year in fuel. Additionally, a more modern and streamlined engine will save drivers in other maintenance fees. One government study estimated that electric-car drivers will save over 40 percent in annual maintenance fees.One of the biggest arguments against electric cars has been their limited range. Electric cars do have a shorter range, but that range is plenty for most drivers. The majority of American drivers travel less than 35 miles a day, and the average electric car has a range of about 100 miles on a full charge. Charging the car at home each night will provide enough power for daily driving and allow drivers to save time by avoiding stops at the gas station. And, as the number of electric cars on the road increases, more businesses and employers will install charging stations for their customers and employees, which will make charging a vehicle even easier.An electric car may not be for everyone, but they have evolved beyond their original restrictions. With a purchase price that is comparable to a gas car, and reduced fuel and maintenance fees, anyone who is purchasing a new car should seriously consider an electric car.
