Which detail best supports the inference that Americans are remaining steadfast in their pursuit of consumerism?
Answer and Explanation:
At the end of World War II, American soldiers returned home and find a country quite different from the one they had left four years earlier. War-time production had helped America's economy to pull out of depression. From the late 1940s on, young adults saw a remarkable rise in their spending power. In the year 2000, Americans seem to be consuming more and more material goods. Americans constitute 5% as it consumes over 25% of the world's resources.
By the age of 16, one recent study found that the typical American will have seen almost six million advertisements. This unrelenting commercials bombardment is exerting a powerful effect on American culture. People are becoming advertising slogan experts. The phrases which eager people to buy more and more are: “Eat your Wheaties”; “Just do it”; “You deserve a break today at McDonald’s”.
The problem arises when advertising convinces people that consumption is the only way to cope up with life’s challenges. People think as if all problems can be solved by watching late-night television infomercials.
Indeed, television advertising is a veritable minefield of lies and unfulfilled promises. But people do not learn from our empty purchases. Instead, they consume, again and again, each time inventing a more imaginative excuse for why the previous purchase failed to solve their problems.

Read this sentence from Stephen Crane's The Red Badge of Courage.
With the courageous words of the artillery and the spiteful sentences of the musketry mingled red cheers.
What literary technique does Crane use here, and to what effect?
a.) He uses symbolism to show how devastating artillery and muskets were during the war.
b.) He uses satire to ridicule the soldiers' use of weapons, as well as their shouts of victory.
c.) He uses personification to make the weapons of war appear both brave and vengeful.
Answer:
c
Explanation:
Crane employs similes and personification to draw pictures of soldiers and their weapons. For example, a soldier's "eyeballs were about to crack like hot stones"; "The man at the youth's elbow was babbling something soft and tender like the monologue of a babe"; "The guns squatted in a row like savage chiefs." Crane uses both personification and simile in the line, "The cannon with their noses poked slantingly at the ground grunted and grumbled like stout men, brave but with objections to hurry." This line makes the weapons appear to be living creatures. The use of personification in the line, "The sore joints of the regiment creaked as it painfully floundered into position," turns the regiment into one large, tired soldier. Crane's similes describe groups and individuals in these examples: the rebel forces were "running like pursued imps" and Henry, at first, "ran like a rabbit" and, later, "like a blind man."

Please help I'll give brainliest Answer questions 1–4 on p. 954 of The Language of Composition. (2nd edition: Answer questions 1–5 on p. 575.)
Answer:
1. Rebecca Walker focuses on her own son as she develops her thesis. Is doing so an effective strategy to reach her audience? Explain whether the addition of quantitative evidence would have strengthened or weakened the introduction. As you develop your response, take into account what you believe Walker’s purpose is.
Walker's thesis provides an effective strategy without the use of quantitative evidence, as such evidence is most effective at supplying information of a general population, rather than one individual. As such, adding quantitative evidence would have weakened the introduction, as it would have taken the focus away from Walker's son and put it towards a large group of children having his same experiences.
2. Do you think the pressure Walker’s son was experiencing was simply standard peer pressure, or do you agree with her that the pressure was tied to gender roles?
Explain.
I think that Walker's son was experiencing peer pressure, just not a kind Walker has seen before. I believe Walker's son was going through a new, unique peer pressure specific to the school he was attending. He may possibly have been dealing with a type of peer pressure unique to his area/demographic.
3. Do you agree with this statement: “My beautiful boy and every other mother’s beautiful boy had what essentially boiled down to two options: fight actually in sport, or fight virtually on the computer” (para. 13)?
No. There are other ways to deal with peer pressure without conforming to it.
4. What does Walker mean by “the cultural imperative” (para. 14)?
A cultural imperative is a custom that you must conform to in order to succeed.
5. Trace the causal links that Walker makes in order to move from the pressure her son feels to participate in competitive sports to her worry that he “was being primed for war” (para. 17). Do you find any faulty linkages in her logic? If so, identify and explain.
First, Walker begins by describing her son's current mood and comparing it with his usual disposition. She knows that due to his behavior, something must have gone wrong at school.
Later, her theory is proven true when her son mentions sports, a topic that shocks her as it is not something he normally talks about. After his tearful outburst that he does not "have anything to talk about", Walker made the connection that because he felt left out due to his not playing any kind of competitive game (something his group of peers actively participate in), her son felt the need to engage in a sport of some kind.
Thus, her fear of her son being left out caused her to jump from the idea of her son picking up a baseball bat or a joystick to picking up a gun; as such, I do not believe she created a faulty link per se, but that rather, her paranoia resulted in her jumping to conclusions.
