zubka84 [21]

The phrase "she turned white for just a moment," from the short story <em>The Gift of the Magi</em>, means she was afraid of something. In this case, she was afraid of her husband Jim's reaction.

She didn't have money to buy him a Christmas present, so she decided to sell her hair for 20 dollars. Later on that day, when she noticed her husband was arriving to the house, she got worried that he would think she wasn't pretty anymore.

Read this excerpt from a speech given at a city council meeting:
mr Goodwill [35]

Hello. You forgot to enter the answer options. The options are:

"A. Change "razor thin" to "extremely tiny."  B. Change "voted out of office" to "removed from their current positions."  C. Change "don't have the money" to "do not make enough profit."  D. Change "definitely not the way to go" to "a completely worthless idea."

Answer:

C. Change "don't have the money" to "do not make enough profit."

Explanation:

The expression "has no money" does not provide accurate and consistent information with a formal language text, when that text refers to the economic conditions of an establishment. "Not having money" is not an economic term that fits the context of the text, which should only use economic terms to maintain the formal tone of the writing.

In this case, the best way to replace this expression and provide a more formal tone would be through the expression "do not make enough profit", which justifies the statement given by the author and maintains the formal tone of the writing.

Which one of the following suffixes would you add to the verb hate to convert it into a noun? A. -d B. -s C. -ing D. -er
WARRIOR [948]
You could add the suffix D. -er to the verb hate in order to convert it into a noun. When you do that, you get the word hater, which is a noun denoting a person who hates. Technically, C is also correct, because you get a noun hating, which is the act of hating - but if you have to choose just one, I'd go with D. When you add -d you get an adjective hated, and when you add -s, you get a verb hates.
