Answer:

Your answer would be 1.

Explanation:

The sentence that correctly uses a semicolon is sentence 1. A semicolon can be used to link in a single sentence two independent clauses that are closely related in thought. Moreover, when a semicolon is used to join or more parts in a sentence, these ideas are given equal rank. In 1, the first clause states that the speaker has found his room totally messe up and then the second clause is about the person who might have messed it up (her/his sister). As you can see, the two clauses are related in thought.

American poets, novelists, and other writers often write about the topic of American identity. In this lesson, you have read exc
exis [7]

Both the authors delve into the theme of Governmental control and the theme of facade of freedom imbibed in Americans.

Explanation:

<u>The first story uses the mechanical absurdity of executive decisions and how they are removed from the experience of the common peopl</u>e. It uses a single narration, almost dried out in its approach to use this and convey the theme.

"<u>Mericans' is more of a story from the perspective of an outsider about the stereotypical America</u> and how their experience is influenced by what they think about the outsiders and are proud about things they have no control over.

What does this passage most strongly suggest about the field of dentistry in McTeague’s time?
vivado [14]

Answer and Explanation:

McTeague novel is not only a story about McTeague, but also San Francisco and the American West, and their greed, masculinity, and medical authority. From the novel, readers learn that McTeague acquired his dental training as a young man not from any professional organization or school, but as a trainee to a traveling dentist who was characterized as an imposter. Despite not having a professional education as it happens today, McTeague shows some impression of belonging to the profession, which is being shown in his office where he keeps copies of The American System of Dentistry and Allen’s Practical Dentist. The Dental office quickly becomes one of his big achievements, with clients such as butcher boys, shop girls, drug clerks, and car conductors. The clients almost belong to the working and lower-middle classes. Americans, at the time, are distressed with dental care, usually only when pain is present. Dentists’ ability to mitigate pain from infected or decaying teeth gave them a large amount of medical authority. The mouths valued as the beginning of the digestive system symbolizes that the dentist’s job was just as critical as that of the physicians.
