Answer:

The statement which is the best evaluation of this paragraph is:

a. The paragraph is sound but needs more supporting evidence to be complete

Explanation:

  • The option a is correct as in this paragraph the writer has told us that the parents must choose how to play their roles in the development of interests of their children. The paragraph is written well but lacks complete supporting evidence. It should include some examples to make it a comprehensive one.
  • The option b is not correct as the paragraph has a topic sentence.
  • The option c is also not correct as the paragraph is focused and has clarity as it is about the role of parents in the interest development of their children.
  • The option d is incorrect as the first sentence is not disconnected from the whole discussion rather it is relevant to the whole idea of the paragraph.

We can think that the author used the dialogue instead of description to show who the characters are. Using the dialogue will allow the characters to have like their own space in the plot and in this way, they have prominence as well.

Choose the word that best defines the italicized word from the novel Frankenstein
a_sh-v [17]

Frankenstein, also known as The Modern Prometheus, written by Mary Shelley and published in 1818 for its first edition,  tells the story of Victor Frankenstein, a scientist who creates a creature conscious creature, going against all kinds of scientific principles.

When we try to understand vocabulary, in whatever document, we need to use the context and also clue words to gather the meaning of unknown words. In this case, the sentence is talking about a sense of guilt, of something done wrong. It also talks about forgiveness, which is being reflected on given the situation spoken about. Given this, exculpation has to do with being forgiven, or not being found guilty about something. This is why  the correct answer is A, acquitted. Both words mean the same thing; being not found guilty, or being exhonerated of guilt for something done.
