The Deep Dive

In the first task, let’s tackle the parts of speech!
a) “Images” and “imagination” are the nouns; “advertisements” and “reader” fit in too. An adjective is “colourful,” making the images more vibrant. The pronouns are “we” and “her.”
b) In the second one, “Readers” is the noun, while “colourful” and “bold” are adjectives describing the images and letters. The pronouns shine here as “they” could represent readers or images in other contexts.
Now, for that statement:
The adjective is “novel,” meaning new or original in this context.
The noun is also “novel,” referring to a fictional book that tells a story—quite the wordplay!
And speaking of the homonym, ‘novel’ can describe both something original and a type of book, so it’s like two words in one! Isn’t language fun?

Which sentence(s) in this paragraph express(es) ideas that would be included in a paraphrase but not in a summary? (1) Adulthood in the latter half of the twentieth century was often marked by the milestones of completing school, leaving home, becoming financially independent, marrying, and having a child. (2) These milestones now occur later in life for many people. (3) Many people are postponing marriage and parenthood, and pursuing more education than in the past, delaying the completion of their schooling. (4) Due to a weak economy, more young people are still living at home with a parent or parents today than was the case a half-century ago, changing family structures. (5) Between 1960 and 2010, the proportion of 18-24 year olds who lived at home (including students attending college) increased by 22 percent (from 43.6 percent to 53.3 percent), whereas the proportion of 25 -34 year olds who lived at home increased by 47 percent (from 9.1 percent to 13.4 percent) (U.S. Census Bureau 2011b).

Although single-eamer married families still make up a sizable minority of families, the proportion of two-earner couples has increased considerably in recent decades. As more U.S. women have worked outside the home, the division of responsibility for work and family has changed in three ways: (1) U.S. husbands are taking increased responsibility for maintaining the home; (2) U.S. women are taking increased responsibility for breadwinning; (3) U.S. men are showing greater interest in their families and parenting. Source: Santrock. Essentiols of Life-Spon Development, 3e. Is the following paragraph a summary or a paraphrase of the reading selection? Santrock explains that more and more American households are supported by two working adults. Because more women have jobs now than in the past, famillies have changed the way the handle household work. Men are taking more responsibility for housework and parenting, and women are taking more responsibility for earning money. Summary, because the paragraph uses different sentence structures than the original. O Summary, because the paragraph is a brief restatement of the original. O Paraphrase, because the paragraph focuses on main ideas.
