Paragraph: "It may seem surprising that no Confederate sympathizers took action against Van Lew, given her strong and public vie

ws on secession and slavery. Surely there were suspicions, especially among her upper-crust neighbors, but the matter never went beyond those suspicions. Historians have suggested that the secessionists were victims of their own cultural bias, believing that no aristocratic person, and certainly not a lady, would ever consider taking part in anything as impolite as spying. A true lady managed her servants, prepared parties and gatherings, and blindly supported her husband. Such attitudes worked in Van Lew's favor, diverting suspicion from her."
Based on your reading beyond this paragraph, what is an overall central idea that the author develops in The Dark Game?

A. Van Lew’s actions of espionage were possible only because she was a woman.
B. Van Lew’s deviant behavior was not the norm for aristocratic people.
C. Van Lew’s heroism lies in that she openly spoke about her views of secession and slavery.
D. Van Lew’s actions revolutionized the expectation and role of women in society.

In the following conversation, which discussion technique does Anna most clearly show?
Alik [6]

C. Asking clarifying questions.

Ramona first invites Anna to "discuss any issues or questions". Anna begins by explaining her thinking process. She tells her group what her first thoughts were about the theme of the article. Then, she explains how her thinking changed. She finishes by asking a clarifying question about the theme of the article. Her question is very simple and does not hold any bias. She's not asking rhetorical questions because she truly wants to know the answer since she doesn't understand. She is not asking research questions that would involve more work.

Which of the following sentences needs a semicolon to be corrected
olya-2409 [2.1K]
Hi there!

The sentence that would need a semicolon is the first sentence, Jerry loves tennis he plays everyday. Here's the corrected sentence: Jerry loves tennis; he plays everyday. The semicolon separates the two ideas in this sentence. Since this is the only sentence that has two ideas in it, this sentence needs a semicolon. (I hope this explanation is okay, and you understand what I'm trying to say!)

Hope this helps!! :)
If there's anything else that I can help you with, please let me know!
