An anthropologist studying first-year students at a university in the United States writes that friendly phrases like “How are you?,” “Nice to meet you,” and “Let’s get in touch” communicate politeness rather than literal intent.

In a well-written essay, develop your position on the value or function of polite speech in a culture or community
with which you are familiar. Use appropriate evidence from your reading, experience, or observations to support
your argument.

Iwill give you 90 points read this entry from a blog about service dogs. lexie, an eight-month-old black labrador retriever, is sleeping quietly at my feet. i can’t but think that her soft, velvety ears and alert brown eyes would make her the perfect “doggie model” for pet magazines and pet store ads. however, lexie will soon have a much more important job to do. in a few months, she will become the loyal companion and service dog for a young man who has been blind since birth. she will him board public transportation, such as buses, subways, and trains, and she will him safely cross busy intersections. lexie will even the young man avoid obstacles, such as high curbs and low overhangs. like all dogs in our organization, lexie has undergone months of specialized training to a visually impaired person lead an active and independent life. what is the primary purpose of this blog? to inform readers about seeing-eye dogsto entertain readers with stories about lexieto persuade readers to support service dogsto convince readers to adopt seeing-eye dogs
