Which sentence is written correctly?

English
1 answer:
ycow [4]1 year ago

The correct sentence that is written correctly is: A) Ever since I was a teenager, I have loved going to the theater.

Here are why the other options are wrong:

B) 'although the lasagna looked terrible, it tasted wonderful.' <-- "although" is not capitalized at the beginning of the sentence. If it's the start of a sentence, you have to capitalize the first letter of the first word. 

C) 'Pepper and i decided it was time to head home.' <-- The issue with this is that the sentence does not capitalize "I". Nobody really knows why "I" needs to be capitalized since it is a first person pronoun. 

D) 'while Jonathan was napping, I finished doing the dishes.' <-- "While" is not capitalized at the beginning of the sentence, making it improper.

Why do you think certain cultures deplore one another
morpeh [17]
They tend to think that their own culture and their way of life is the correct one and the one the other people have is wrong. It is like going to a Catholic school and then an Atheist comes and tells you "No, your beliefs are wrong." It is all basically because they all think they are right.

Which revision would most improve sentence 7? suggesting an alternative plan to replace the current school calendar explaining w
yulyashka [42]

The revision which would most improve sentence 7 is the one that follows:

Suggest an alternative plan to replace the current school calendar. Explain why it is outdated and inefficient. Express an opinion about those who oppose changing it. Restate the strongest piece of evidence used to support the claim.

Comments: The paragraph above contains instructions for a school assignment or something like that. Since there were instructions, it was necessary to change the verbs from "ing" form to imperative (used to give orders, commands,instructions). Punctuation had to be changed as well: a few pauses were added, and that was done with periods (.). In order to make it less repetitive, it was the right choice to replace "the current school calendar" with the pronoun "it" (third person singular) from the second time we talked about "the current school calendar" on.

How does the poem Hatred use personification in lines 21-28 to contrast hatred with compassion, brotherhood, and doubt?
Sophie [7]
<span>Aversion is a strong disgust and must be avoided in order to live in harmony with others. Like jealousy, hatred fascinates us, fascinates and easily captures our imagination. <span>The Bible to condemn hatred, "Dinner at the gardenen where love is present is superior to cattle and hatred." Hatred like anger is a poisonous tree not done in our orchard.
</span>Wislawa Szymborska adopts ridicule and talks about its growth, how to operate, and the hatred caused by it. <span>Poetry has ease of conversation, under which serious purpose is hidden.

</span>In the opening stanza, hatred has been anthropomorphic, and it has been given the positive determination for corporate determination and achievement of goals. The hatred that is as old as human himself is visualized as a hunter (predator) maintaining perfect condition. I chase us with ruthless efficiency and have overcome all obstacles. <span>The word "pounces" is meaningful, as it suggests that animals jump at quarry without meaning.</span></span>

In paragraph 4 of “Marigolds,” author Eugenia Collier uses the metaphor, “Poverty was the cage in which we all were trapped…” to
Alina [70]

When Collier uses the metaphor in paragraph 4, what she means is:

D. being poor limited their opportunities in life.

  • "Marigolds" is a short story by author Eugenia W. Collier (born in Baltimore in 1928). The narrator is Lizabeth, and the story is set during the Great Depression.
  • The<u> fourth paragraph</u> of the story provides a sad description of Lizabeth's reality growing up during the Depression. She talks about her poor neighborhood and how poverty was like a cage for them.
  • The narrator uses that metaphor to summarize what she said previously in the paragraph. Being poor meant not only being hungry, but also being culturally deprived.
  • She and the other children had no access to information, <u>did not understand </u>the reason of the extent of their poverty.
  • Without proper food, education, and opportunities, they were condemned to remain poor.
  • In conclusion, letter D is the best option to explain the metaphor, since poverty meant deprivation of opportunities for Lizabeth and the others.
