Correctly punctuate/create the complex sentences below.

English

Answer:

The correct punctuation is as follow:

Explanation:

  1. After eating lunch at the cafeteria, Ben went to the gym to have a swim. You need to place a comma after the word cafeteria to separate these two sentences.
  2. Due to the damage caused by the storm, the ferry will not be running today. Again, a comma is needed here to separate the two sentences.
  3. The company’s training session, which was due to take place on Tuesday, has been postponed. Here, you need to put the appositive (that additional information about the training session), in between commas, or you can put it in parentheses to separate it from the rest of the sentence.
  4. If you are going to college this autumn, don’t forget to sign up for a discount card. Since the dependent clause is found at the beginning of the sentence (If you are going to college this autumn), you need to put a comma after it, like in sentence 1.

Match the fallacy with its name. Your grandfather died in World War II; you of all people should support veterans.
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The fallacy is that veterans should be supported.

Explanation:

Fallacies are mistaken beliefs. Things that people believe in that don't make sense. In this passage, the narrator is saying to another person that all people should support veterans(people who were in a war) because their grandfather was killed in World war 2. But, that means that the grandfather was <em>killed by a veteran</em>! This doesn't make sense. The fallacy is that veterans should be supported.

One interpretation of the story “The Lightning-Rod Man” is that Melville is criticizing certain Christian missionaries of the ti
Valentin [98]

Answer:

Explanation:

Melville’s story is an allegory that conveys his criticism of Christian missionaries. Melville uses several biblical, scientific, mythological, and historical allusions to build his allegory. The lightning-rod man represents Christian missionaries, while the narrator represents Melville’s beliefs. According to him, missionaries are displacing and destroying the cultures they are attempting to convert rather than bringing them true spirituality. Although the narrator isn’t influenced by the lightning-rod man, he is saddened and worried to see his neighbors fall prey to the missionaries' trap. The narrator tries to dissuade his neighbors from believing in the lightning-rod man, who continues to thrive as he “trades with the fears of men.” Unlike many others of the time period, Melville believes in being God-loving, not God-fearing. :) Hope this helped.

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

a rejected alternative

Explanation:

In the context, two friends were discussing which place or restaurant to go and eat some thing. One of them suggested to go to "Sharky". He even added the advantage of watching the game on the television which is in the restaurant "Sharky".
