Answer:

My friend John, who owns the chocolate Lab puppy, is getting ready to leave for a trip.

Explanation:

"Nonrestrictive modifiers" are words or phrases that follows a noun. It is separated by commas since it presents an information that is not essential to the meaning of the sentence as a whole.

Among the choices above, the choice "My friend John, who owns the chocolate Lab puppy, is getting ready to leave for a trip" uses the commas correctly in order to separate its non restrictive modifier.

The non restrictive modifier in the sentence is "who owns the chocolate Lab puppy." This modifies "My friend John." However, it is not an essential information in order to determine the meaning of the whole sentence since the sentence already mentioned the named John.

Answer:

The culture in "Black Ships Before Troy" caused a hero to be seen as a traitor, while in "Heart of a Samurai" the culture almost prevented a hero from appearing.

Explanation:

"Black Ships Before Troy" presents a people with a culture very based on religion, where they believed that all the events that happened were due to the action of the gods. Good events were because the gods were happy, while bad events were caused by the wrath of the gods. In this case, when a hero tried to stop the horse sent to Troy and ended up dying before completing his mission, he was seen as a traitor who was rebuked by the gods.

In contrast, "Heart of a Samurai" shows how a boy who dreamed of being a samurai was prevented because his family was made up of fishermen and the culture said that young people should follow their parents' tragedy.

Kamila [148]

The excerpt from "The Enigma Machine” that supports the idea that Allied forces expected the Germans to complicate their coding system is the following:

"The Germans knew their enemies were listening to their secret radio communications, but they were confident their messages were undecipherable.

The ENIGMA machine so enciphered the messages that the Germans assumed the contents could be deciphered only by duplicate ENIGMA's set according to precise and frequently changed settings."
