The sentence 'A home that is self-sufficient should not be confused with an ‘independent home’, which typically refers only to its energy use.
Most so-called independent homes are still dependent on food distribution systems to sustain their occupants' is an example of Definition and Reinterpretation.
The sentence 'In order to become better or simply to live, the theatre as an independent art form must realize how it is different from the written text or pure speech.
We mustn’t forget that theatre has visual impact and is a dynamic force in its own right between the audience and the stage' is an example of Comparison and Contrast.
The sentence ' Humankind has surely benefited greatly from much speedier transmission of knowledge in a digitised world.
But let us not forget that the creation of knowledge as a commercial activity will suffer if intellectual labour is not properly rewarded' is an example of Concession and Rebuttal
