Thank you We sneak in and here's your shmoop du

00:05

jour brought to you by the american spirit Why is

00:08

the statue of liberty always in a bad mood over

00:11

one hundred years with her arms raised And she still

00:13

can't get a cab or uber all right from democracy

00:17

in america likes its vocal how many times i read

00:19

this thing i'm working on You know what We're just

00:23

going to skim past all this and skim skim skim

00:26

on half and half and then skin and then we're

00:30

good All right The author begins the second paragraph with

00:34

but one team in order to shift from what which

00:38

rhymes with and hear the pinch lancers worth count Okay

00:45

well when we see the word but we know the

00:47

author is getting ready to contrast whatever he or she

00:50

was just talking about So to get this question right

00:53

we need to know what's different about the main ideas

00:55

A paragraph one and two Well choice A war with

00:59

england And after many misses the boat on the main

01:01

idea of both paragraphs The first program does mention the

01:04

war When it talked about colonies thrown off the yoke

01:07

Of england like that kind of yolk Not that kind

01:10

of you This isn't the overall point two paragraph is

01:13

making though and the second paragraph doesn't delve into the

01:16

war's aftermath at all Option b isn't going to make

01:19

the cut either Live in the colony front of war

01:21

following both paragraphs actually talk about life in the colonies

01:24

before the war Neither mentions what went down after the

01:27

war Lastly d is wrong because the facets begins by

01:30

discussing the similarities between the colonies Not their differences are

01:34

too miss All those sames hanging around there answer C

01:37

is correct The factors that united colonies to those that

01:41

tended to divide them in paragraph point alexis tells us

01:44

all the stuff that united the colonies Then in paragraph

01:47

two he explains that the colonies were separately governed before

01:50

the war which made them want their own space afterward

01:53

So the beginning of paragraph two works as a transition

01:56

between the first and second parts of toke phil's argument

02:00

What can we say alexis Like to argue Later he

02:03

joined an anger management support group work through his aggressive

02:06

tendencies and well then went to law school Lovely blamed 00:02:09.9 --> [endTime] it all on this
