Answer:

the right answer is the letter B.

Explanation:

Rich in symbolism, "The Divine Comedy" is perfectly adapted to Christianity and can be read by all those who want to read it. Some are content only with the casing of which the work is encased, others anticipate further, each according to their possibilities of drinking in the inexhaustible source of symbolism.

An example of the use of symbolism in this work is in the excerpt above where Dante shows a river of boiling blood full of people guilty of carnage, this boiling blood symbolizes the blood that these guilty people have taken from innocent victims of their violence.

Answer:

To remove the "dead-weight phrase" in the sentence: "It has been found that most people consider buying a house the largest purchase they can ever make," it can be rewritten as follows:

"Most people consider buying a house the largest purchase they can ever make."

Explanation:

A dead-weight phrase is one that is not helpful in a sentence to convey the intended meaning.  This implies that the meaning can still be picked up without the phrase.  For example, the phrase: "it has been found that" is not necessary in the sentence.  The meaning of the sentence is conveniently conveyed with its omission.  The meaning is not lost if the sentence is rewritten as "Most people consider buying a house the largest purchase they can ever make."

Generally, a dead-weight is an unnecessary burden that can be jettisoned to make a load lighter.  Also an unhelpful person can be considered as a dead-weight.

In three to five sentences, describe how conflict can be both constructive and destructive.
Flura [38]
Conflicts can be destructive because they can break up people if they have an argument or they can even cause wars if they are large scale conflicts. They can be constructive if both sides actively work on solving problems so a conflict can help people solve an issue between them and build better relations.
