Answer:

The correct answer is C.

The author seeks to to make a comparison between Jekyll's transformation and real life.

Explanation:

In the case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, Dr Henry Jekyll changes himself into an Edward Hyde an evil doer: the fall out of Dr Jekylls experiment.

At the end of the strange story, Dr Jekyll before his death wills his estate to his evil persona Edward Hyde.

So the article refers to this story with the intention to consider the extent to which the legal frameworks will permit the sort of transfer that happened between Jekyll and Hyde, were it to happen in real life.

Cheers!

Read the following passage from Amy Tan's “Two Kinds” and answer the question.

uranmaximum [27]

The answer would be B based off of how her grammar is in this segment. Because her grammar is conducted poorly, it probably was not her first language.
Hopefully this helps. ;)

Answer:

Love Thy Garden

Most of us associate gardening with our grandparents, with people recovering from an illness, or with older folks gently tending to rows of hydrangeas and tomatoes. Of course, it is not something young people do, right? However, an increasing number of young adults and kids are getting into small-scale farming or gardening. This happens because schools across the country have initiated programs that involve working not only in gardens but also in small community farms. For example, The Edible Schoolyard Project, which was created in 2005 by Alice waters, makes farming fun for young people. In the beginning, Alice wanted to transform a vacant lot into an edible kitchen in her neighborhood school. After 2005, the project blossomed into a nationwide campaign to involve kids in the food-growing and production process. The program lets school kids of varying ages grow their fruits and vegetables. Then, it teaches them interesting and simple recipes. Can you imagine the joy kids experience in every stage when growing their food? First, they plant the seed. Then, they watch the plant grow as they take care of it. Finally, they pick the fruits and eat them. Besides, farming has other benefits: it relieves stress and it helps kids stay fit and connect with the community. Gardening or farming can also be fun for adults and teenagers. Thus, people of all ages can enjoy it.

Explanation

Grandparents: unification of the concept grandpas and grandmas to get a shorter sentence.
Sentence 1: Since the first three sentences are closely related, the text flows better by linking them. The repetition of the preposition "with" gives the text a poetical aspect.
people recovering from an illness/with older folks gently tending to rows of hydrangeas and tomatoes: omission of the expressions "who are"/"We have seen" to make the sentence shorter.
Of course: to emphasize the claim.
Young people instead of younger because there is not a comparison between two elements in the same sentence.
It is not instead of it isn´t since it should be formal as it may be an academic text.
However: connector to show an opposition between two ideas.
This happens because: phrase to link the cause and the effect.
not only in gardens but also in small community farms: not only but also to show addition.
For example: to introduce an instance of the previous idea.
, which was created in 2005 by Alice waters, : use of a relative clause to characterize the previous pronoun.
In the beginning/ After 2005: connectors to show the before and after of the project.
neighborhood school instead of a school in her neighborhood to make the sentence less complex.
The omission of "own" because it is redundant.
Then: connector of time to show that the idea follows the food-growing process.
as: to show simoultaneous ideas
Can you imagine the joy kids experience in every stage when growing their food?: use of a question to invite the reader to think and make him/her feel part of the text.
First/then/finally: connectors to show the chronological order of processes.
Besides: to add a new idea
use of colon: to introduce a list of equal elements
also: to show the idea of addition, inclusion
Thus: connector to show a consequence of the previous statement

Answer:

“Nature“ – Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Woman in the Nineteenth Century“ – Margaret Fuller

“Walden“ – Henry David Thoreau

"Orphic Sayings" - Amos Bronson Alcott

Explanation:

Nature is a book written by Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803 – 1882) published in 1836. The book has a form of an essay, where the author discusses the relationship between humans and nature. According to Emerson, a man should find a sense of his life in nature and the universe that surrounds him and forget about money and any material goods.

Woman in the Nineteenth Century is an essay book by Margaret Fuller (1810 – 1846), published in 1843. In this essay, Fuller explains a women's position in society and explains that they aren't less capable than men. She criticizes gender inequality and society for establishing gender hierarchies and restricting women's rights.

Walden (Walden, or, Life in the Woods) is a book that consists of 18 essays by Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862), published in 1854. Walden describes how simple and pleasant our lives could be, based on his life in nature, in the cabin he built at Walden Pond.

Orphic Sayings is a book of 100 aphorisms by Amos Bronson Alcott (1799 – 1888), published in the transcendental journal Dial between 1840 and 1842. These sayings show us the mystical and transcendental idealism of Bronson Alcott and reveal some of his thoughts about life, nature, faith, time, etc.
