Mr. Avery boarded across the street from Mrs. Henry Lafayette Dubose's house. Besides
making change in the collection plate every Sunday, Mr. Avery sat on the porch every night until
nine o'clock and sneezed. One evening we were privileged to witness a performance by him
which seemed to have been his positively last, for he never did it again so long as we watched.
Jem and I were leaving Miss Rachel's front steps one night when Dill stopped us: "Golly, looka
yonder." He pointed across the street. At first we saw nothing but a kudzu-covered front porch,
but a closer inspection revealed an arc of water descending from the leaves and splashing in the
yellow circle of the street light, some ten feet from source to earth, ensuing contest to determine
relative distances and respective prowess only made me feel left out again, as I was untalented in
this area.

The word is “LOGIC SKILLS”
To construct an effective argument, one must have a firm understanding of logic skills. This includes identifying and analyzing arguments, recognizing common fallacies, and constructing valid and sound arguments. An effective argument requires a clear understanding of the principles of logic and how to apply them to construct a coherent argument that persuades the audience of one's point of view. Therefore, developing logical thinking skills and understanding logical concepts is essential for constructing a persuasive argument.
Articles. Read a short passage from the book you have selected and identify all
the instances where articles (a, an, the) are used. Rewrite the passage without the
articles and see how the meaning changes.
OK the answer to this question is that a is used in nouns where any vowel is not the first letter or the noun is singular. an is used when the noun starting letter is a vowel. the is used for specific nouns
Answer:
Short passage from the book "The Epic of Gilgamesh" with the articles identified:
In ancient Mesopotamia, there was a great king named Gilgamesh. He was a powerful warrior and a wise ruler. He was also very proud and arrogant.
One day, Gilgamesh was challenged by a wild man named Enkidu. Enkidu was strong and savage, and he defeated Gilgamesh in battle. After the battle, Gilgamesh and Enkidu became friends. They traveled together and had many adventures.
One of their adventures took them to the Cedar Forest, where they fought a giant monster named Humbaba. They were victorious, but Enkidu was mortally wounded. Gilgamesh was grief-stricken, and he began to question the meaning of life.
In the passage above, there are a total of 10 articles:
a great king
the Epic of Gilgamesh
a wild man
the battle
a wise ruler
the Cedar Forest
a giant monster
the meaning of life
the passage
If we remove the articles from the passage, the meaning changes slightly. For example, the sentence "In ancient Mesopotamia, there was a great king named Gilgamesh" becomes "In ancient Mesopotamia, there was great king named Gilgamesh." The meaning of the sentence is still clear, but it is less specific. The article "a" is used to indicate that there was one king, but without the article, the sentence could be interpreted to mean that there were multiple kings.
The other articles in the passage also serve to add specificity. For example, the article "the" is used to refer to the specific book "The Epic of Gilgamesh" and the specific monster "Humbaba." Without the articles, the meaning of these references would be less clear.
In general, articles are used in English to add specificity and clarity to language. They can also be used to avoid ambiguity. When articles are removed from a passage, the meaning of the passage may still be clear, but it may be less specific and less clear.

Read "Villanelle" by Victor James Daly. Then, answer the question that follows.
We said farewell, my youth and I,
When all fair dreams were gone or going,
And Love's red lips were cold and dry.
When white blooms fell from tree-tops high,
Our Austral winter's way of snowing,
We said farewell, my youth and I.
We did not sigh, what use to sigh
When Death passed as a mower mowing,
And Love's red lips were cold and dry?
But hearing Life's stream thunder by,
That sang of old through flowers flowing,
We said farewell, my youth and I.
There was no hope in the blue sky,
No music in the low winds blowing,
And Love's red lips were cold and dry.
My hair is black as yet, then why
So sad! I know not, only knowing
We said farewell, my youth and I.
All are not buried when they die;
Dead souls there are through live eyes showing
When Love's red lips are cold and dry.
So, seeing where the dead men lie,
Out of their hearts the grave-flowers growing,
We said farewell, my youth and I,
When Love's red lips were cold and dry.
