Answer and Explanation:

The chest looked ancient - I would have guessed some good hundred years. There wasn't much to it; no golden adornments of any kind. Its wood was dark, damp, and splintered, as if it were telling the story of every storm, every high tide, every humid summer it had survived. There was a sort of metal strap around it, with rusty little hollowed handles that closed side by side to allow the padlock to lock. The padlock itself was rusty and rustic, with a huge black emptiness in its center waiting for a key - the majestic old key I now had in my hands. I felt as if electricity were running through my veins instead of my own red blood, as if my brain could no longer contain any thoughts other than the curious urge to open that chest. I did it carefully, afraid to hurt my hands with the rusty iron and the splinters. Inside, there was nothing but a necklace. My heart thumped strongly, I would have heard its beating in a vacuum. I had found it, the golden necklace everyone believed to be a myth. I held it in my hands, triumphantly.

Note: Your question does not give much context about how or why those objects would be found. So I just made up some sort of story around it. Feel free to change anything!

What example does Alan Weisman give to show that nature has little concern
Flura [38]

Answer:

Option B. An example that Alan Weisman gives to show that nature has little concern for things that humans find important is <u>paintings in museums.</u>

Explanation:

American journalist Alan Weisman wrote a non-fiction book called "The World Without Us" in which he theorizes about what would happen to our planet and everything we have created and built, if humanity suddenly disappeared. Written as a thought experiment, the author explains that if humans disappeared, nature would restore itself everywhere, and by doing so, it would little by little destroy everything that humans considered vital and important, like paintings in museums. Valuable pieces of art that we, as humans, take great care of, would be destroy and ruined by the force of nature.

Read the excerpt from Sophia’s letter to the manager of an automotive shop. I bring my car to your shop often. This time, howeve
AlladinOne [14]

I am dissatisfied with the service I received.

This is the better revision because the word choice is more specific to the topic of the letter. Also, the more professional tone distances herself from the manager and gives more her more authority. The original sentence sounds too informal. This would be problematic because the audience of the letter may see the author as whiny and complaining instead of a person who should be taken seriously and worth listening to.

Which situation is an example of internal conflict?
Fudgin [204]
Internal conflict is not physical, so anything happening in the real world is out of the question. Internal is most of the time decision making, so if I couldn't decide on the pink or purple dress it would be internal conflict. If I was dealing with depression it could be considered internal conflict.

So, your answer is A.<span />

Read the following excerpt from a journal article. "Leading experts on parenting believe that having clear rules and expectation
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Sentence A.

Explanation:

When using someone else's thoughts, ideas, sentences etc. in your work, it's necessary to avoid plagiarism, by properly quoting them.

There are basically two essential things to pay attention to:

- when paraphrasing someone one must put internal quotation just after the paraphrased piece of information. Internal quotation consists at least of the author's last name and page number from which the information was taken.

- when quoting someone (using his work word-by-word), the quoted content must be placed between quotation marks, followed by internal quotation.

Of course, regardless of the internal quotation, the proper citation must be provided at the end of the work, in the citation list.

So, with all this in mind, we can see that sentence A failed to obey these rules, which marks it as plagiarism.
