Option 1: "I never give up despite what life brings. When people think of me, they think of courage, baseball, and dedication to family. I stand out because of my service to others."
Option 2: "I never give up despite what life brings. When people think of me, they think of courage, baseball, and wacky grandmas. I stand out because I am the one and only Juicebox."
Answer: Option 1: "I never give up despite what life brings. When people think of me, they think of courage, baseball, and dedication to family. I stand out because of my service to others."
Explanation:
The option that is a better brand statement for Cedric would be Option 1: "I never give up despite what life brings. When people think of me, they think of courage, baseball, and dedication to family. I stand out because of my service to others."
Option 2 is inappropriate to a brand statement because of the "wacky grandmas and standing out because I am the one and only Juicebox". This is it a good statement to make when one is writing a brand statement.
A brand statement should give others a positive feeling towards one and one should portray his or her good behavior in the statement and should avoid using unprofessional or informal languages.

Highlight text formatting and punctuation marks that signal that the reader should change tone. It was an unbelievably detailed dream: the bike had a purple metallic finish and was parked next to the wine cabinet. He even knew the sequence of the combination lock: 12345. He couldn't forget that now, could he? Well, in the middle of the night, still woozy with sleep, he staggered down to the basement in his pajamas, and what did he find next to the wine cabinet? A dead mouse. That was a low blow! —The Number Devil, Hans Magnus Enzenberger Which kind of punctuation tells the reader to end the sentence with a higher tone of voice? a question mark an exclamation point a period a comma
Answer:
A.. Question mark
Explanation:
(A) question mark, because when you ask a question it lowers your voice and that means your thinking, and confused, so it lowers your voice. Plus i got it right also, If your pitch bends down as you approach the end of the sentence, then you are using “down speak,” or what linguists refer to as “falling intonation.” If your pitch increases steadily as you approach the end of the sentence, rising up toward the end of the word “Monday,” then you used “high rising terminal,” or “upspeak".

B. The speaker realizes he does not need those who now sit at the table and therefore focuses on improving himself.
C. Even though he is being rejected by those at the table, the speaker is confident and resilient to adversity.
D. The speaker rejects getting help from those who now sit at the table and realizes that he must fend for himself.
E. Despite being relegated to the kitchen, the speaker still feels he is treated fairly as he is provided with a position in society.

To him, he noticed that, he is being treated different from others because he happens to be black but that does not deter him from be confident about himself rather than complaining always. He showed resilient to the adversity he is currently facing by making such that he feeds well when sent over to the kitchen.
