Which statement best explains why Shakespeare has Cassius use the word fawn rather than a synonym such as flatter to describe hi
GaryK [48]

The statement that best explains why Shakespeare has Cassius use the word <em>fawn</em> rather than a synonym such as <em>flatter</em> to describe his actions is the A: Fawn is more negative, suggesting manipulation of another for personal gain. In the excerpt that this question is referring to, the shrewd Cassius is going to reveal some aspects of Brutus's personality, or of his behavior, that he cannot see, and he asks him to trust in him, unless he saw him flattering somebody and then slandering him on their back; in that case, Cassius concludes, Brutus could be suspicious of him. Shakespeare is using the word <em>fawn </em>in Cassius's speech in order to emphasize his manipulative and devious traits. The word does have a negative connotation, and it often implies disapproval of that person's actions.

The following sentence has a misplaced modifier. Tired of studying and writing research papers, summer vacation came as a relief
Archy [21]

The sentence that sounds the best when you read it out loud is:

C. Summer vacation came as a relief to the student, who was tired of studying and writing research papers.

If you read all the sentences out loud they all sound weird except for this one.
