Part a: which statement best identifies the central idea of the text? a shakespeare didn’t need an extensive vocabulary to make his written work impressive, rather he used simple words in interesting and engaging ways. b many rappers and hip hop artists take inspiration from shakespeare because he was able to convey so much with so few words. c shakespeare wasn’t the literary genius many believe him to be as many writers today prove to have a more advanced vocabulary. d it’s likely that many playwrights from shakespeare’s time had a better grasp on the english language, but their work was never properly preserved.

THe correct answer is D

Explanation:

D- It’s likely that many playwrights from Shakespeare’s time had a better grasp on the English language, but their work was never properly preserved.

The reason is that Shakespeare, despite of having limited vocabulary knew how make impressive use of the simpler words that he knew.

It all lies in how you use them rather than how much you use them. Words have a way of changing what and how you say things just by an inch of expression.

Many writers at that point might have better vocabulary but they lacked the art of using it appropriately.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

for me, i'd go with (c) satisfied or (b) overjoyed because if you read it a couple of times, it makes since that it is c or b. it can't b (a) angry because booker was never angry about anything. at the end of the paragraph, booker states, "i think there are not many men in our country who have had the privilege of naming themselves in the way that i " i think that sentence kind of gives away the also, some words in the paragraph can also you like for example, "indulged," "calmly," "perplexity," "privilege," and defining words that you don't know, can you understand more of that paragraph and it can also increase your comprehension. : )

i'm really rally sorry if i'm incorrect, but if i'm hope this ! : )
