most traditional childrens nursery rhymes?
a.were written by children
b.were written by educators
c.make fun of physical distinctions
d.encouage tolerance of others
my answer is b
I disagree.
individual physical attributes stouted ,thinness,or the size and shape of a nose are noticed and commented on,often cruelly ,from childhood.this juvenile tendency is revealed,not only in the street calls the children,but the works of writers and in nursery rhymes.
that's what the text says
To which of the 3 choices left (discounting b) does this refer?
"...individual physical attributes stouted ,thinness,or the size and shape of a nose are noticed and commented on,often cruelly ,from childhood..."
would you think c would be the best answer
Yes, c.
