Gordon Sterrett is embarrassed by his appearance. Which sentence from the passage best supports this statement?
Over [174]

Answer:

"This latter effect heightened by an unnatural glow which colored his face like a low, incessant fever."

Explanation:

The above sentence from the given excerpt most likely displays that Gordon Sterrett was extremely appalled by his shabby appearance. There is a detailed description of his appearance in the excerpt as 'small, slender, and darkly handsome, unusually framed eyes with long eyelashes with a blue semicircle of ill health' which clearly justifies Gordon's embarrassment to see him. The negative words 'unnatural glow', 'low face', and 'incessant fever' supports this claim effectively and justifies it constructively.

Correct any errors in capitalization or punctuation:
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The best option is letter B) "After a good dinner one can forgive anybody," joked a character in one of Oscar Wilde's plays, "even one's own reflections."

Explanation:

When quoting what someone said, even if it is a character in a play or a story, we must use quotation marks. Notice that they will separate the character's words from the words of the person who is quoting. Also, if a period or a comma must appear, they should come inside the quotation marks, not outside. Therefore, letter B is the best option because it follows those instructions.

B) "After a good dinner one can forgive anybody," joked a character in one of Oscar Wilde's plays, "even one's own reflections."

Molodets [167]
Humans, whales and bats have one thing in common: they're all mammals. This means that they have a common ancestor that is not shared by for example fish: in this way, they can be said to have a common ancestor, the first mammal.

However, in the end, all life on earth can be trade to a common ancestor- so to some degree this can also be said about all animals.

I'd go with pathos, being nervous really isn't an emotion but it's similar towards fear and discomfort, and so pathos are associated with emotions.
