Answer:

Shylock in "Merchant of the Venice" is depicted as a comic character in the scene because of the way he laments the loss of his daughter and his ducat.

Explanation:

The manner in which Shylock's laments added humor to the play, His repetition of "O my daughter!, O! my christian ducats", amuses the audience and shows his greedy nature because it is shown that Jessica is another possession for him as well as the ducats.

The manner and way in which the boys of Venice mocked and jeered him as they followed him by repeating the tone of his lamentation, all this added to the humor in the scene. Shylock wants justice from the Jew who had eloped with his daughter and taking with her, his jewelry and ducats.

Read the sentence. In what ways does the underlined clause add variety and meaning to the sentence? Check all that apply.
Flauer [41]

Answer:

The correct answers are:

- It adds detail about the photographs.

- It tells the reader which photographs are being discussed.

- It creates a compound-complex sentence.

Explanation:

First of all, the underlined clause adds some details about the photographs; that the photographs are faded and cracked. It also reveals to us that the writer refers to the photographs he stored in the attic, so we get one additional information about the photographs.

As we previously indicated, this is a compound-complex sentence, which is modifying the main noun by adding more information about photographs. In our example, this sentence is composed of a compound sentence and a complex sentence.
