ENG 115 Unit 3 Milestone 3 Sophia Course English Composition I 1 Select the statement about writing in the informative mode that is TRUE.  The writer should reserve informative writing for aca... demic contexts only.  The writer should examine his or her biases and assumptions.  The writer should include examples from personal experience to enhance the written work.  The writer should include research that supports his or her claim to convince readers to agree with that position. RATIONALE Informative writing should maintain an impartial or objective viewpoint, so the writer needs to examine any personal biases and assumptions; using personal experiences or anecdotes is not appropriate in this type of writing. Because the purpose of informative writing is to inform or explain, this type of writing is common in both academic and nonacademic settings. Convincing the reader to agree with a position by incorporating supporting evidence is a goal associated with argumentative writing. CONCEPT Introduction to Informative Writing I need help with this question 2 The following excerpt from an article titled "Digital Ethics" provides information and explains ideas related to modern online ethics: "One of the most immediate reasons why digital ethics are important is because how we present, indeed construct our persona(s) affects the way in which our communication and intentions will be received.

How do you know?  Analysis, because it analyzes Aristotle's "appeals"  Analysis, because it discusses how to break down an argument  Definition, because it redefines the term "ethics" in a digital context  Definition, because it provides the dictionary definition of "digital ethics" RATIONALE This excerpt is taken from a definition essay because it explores an alternate definition of a word or phrase (in this instance, "ethics"), as opposed to simply explaining the established definition. The writer explains that although the concept of ethics is not new, the way in which it applies to the digital world is. The writer mentions Aristotle's "appeals," but they are not analyzed in depth, or used to break down an argument; therefore, this is not an analytical essay.

Hurston perfectly captures the cadence of black Southern dialect and leads the reader to understand the raw power of language. Janie is a woman struggling to find her voice and by novel's end, she has succeeded--through pain and loss and suffering--in defining herself and knowing her place in the world. Select the word that best describes the tone of the paragraph.  informal  tragic  positive  humorous RATIONALE Remember that tone is the writer's attitude toward the subject, as conveyed through a piece of writing. The paragraph reads like a scholarly book review, so the tone is not informal or humorous. A tragic tone would use negatively charged language, which this piece does not. In fact, the writer uses phrases like "rich in imagery" and "succeeded-- through pain and loss and suffering--in defining herself," indicating a positive view of the novel.
