<span>I think that the author decided to begin passage 2 with a description of the city in order to  immerse the reader in the environment and the conditions in which babbitts are. The writer only wants to emphasize that a situation in which babbitts are, somehow has a connection with the area in which they are located, that is the city.</span>

Which of the following sentences needs a semicolon to be corrected
olya-2409 [2.1K]
Hi there!

The sentence that would need a semicolon is the first sentence, Jerry loves tennis he plays everyday. Here's the corrected sentence: Jerry loves tennis; he plays everyday. The semicolon separates the two ideas in this sentence. Since this is the only sentence that has two ideas in it, this sentence needs a semicolon. (I hope this explanation is okay, and you understand what I'm trying to say!)

Hope this helps!! :)
If there's anything else that I can help you with, please let me know!

Give two examples of euphemisms in "From Emperor to Citizen" and explain what each refers to.
almond37 [142]
One of the euphemisms in "From Emperor to Citizen" is Puppet. It refers to Pu Yi who was called Emperor, but was actually controlled by the Japanese. Another euphemism is Forbidden City, because it wasn't forbidden for those who worked and lived there.

In Stalin's opinion, why did the USSR decide to go to war with Germany?​
gulaghasi [49]

The correct answer is A) because people of the world -including dissenters in Germany- had approved their cause.

<em>In Stalin's opinion, the USSR decide to go to war with Germany because people of the world -including dissenters in Germany- had approved their cause. </em>

Joseph Stalin was a dictator. The people that surround him, his advisors, often said yes to everything he said. So in Stalin's mind, the Soviet Union had to wage war against Germany because he thought he had total support from the people in Russia; even dissenters in Germany. So he considered that he was fighting the tyrant Hitler and his expansionist ideas that included an invasion to the USSR territory as he did.  

The other options of the question were b) because Britain would be fighting with the Soviets, c) because Soviet troops had received threats from German ships, and d) because Hitler took Polish territory when he broke the nonaggression pact.

Read the passage from "By the Waters of Babylon.” I went north—I did not try to hide myself. When a god or a demon saw me, then
Maslowich

The correct answer is “His desire to explore is greater than his fear of where he is going”. Taken from the short story “<em>By the Waters of Babylon</em>” by Stephen Vincent Benét (1937), the passage presented above narrates the moment when John, the son of a priest, visits the <u>Place of the Gods</u>, also called <u>The Dead Place</u>. This place was destroyed by a great burning. Moreover, the Place of the Gods was said to be inhabited with spirits and demons since then. The place was described as a desolate one and nature has taken over it. Even though the place was forbidden and scary, John embarks on a journey to unravel its mysteries. <u>He does not fear its scary atmosphere</u>, since his insatiable quest for knowledge is far more important.
