Answer:
I believe letter <u>B. historical records</u> is the best choice.
Explanation:
"Exhalation" is a short sci-fi story by author Ted Chiang, narrated by a character who belongs to a race of air-driven mechanical beings. The narrator-character decides to dissect his own brain and study it, which might lead us to believe the best answer is letter A. However, there is a whole reason behind such dissection that permeates the story even more than readers can grasp at first. The narrator is fascinated by the fact that memory is so fragile. Every time someone "dies" - runs out of air - in his word, when brought back to life, they forget who they are. Their memories are erased. Also, history has only began to be recorded by these mechanical beings quite recently, so their distant past is mystery to them.
After dissecting his own brain, the narrator comes to understand how it functions and why memories are easily erased from it. He also realized his race will be extinct due to change in pressure. Thus, he chooses to record his findings so that himself, his race, and their history won't be lost:
<em>Which is why I have written this account. You, I hope, are one of those explorers. You, I hope, found these sheets of copper and deciphered the words engraved on their surfaces. [...] through the act of reading my words, the patterns that form your thoughts become an imitation of the patterns that once formed mine. And in that way I live again, through you.
</em>
<em>Your fellow explorers will have found and read the other books that we left behind, and through the collaborative action of your imaginations, my entire civilization lives again.</em>
The answer is, fact. Science is based on facts. Science is a branch of study which comprises a systematic body of knowledge containing mere facts based on a series of studies. It also involves the application of these studies and how these affect all the organisms present on earth.
Answer:
The answers are explained below. Paragraph 13 isn't available.
Explanation:
A rhetorical question is a question asked to create a dramatic effect or to make a point rather than to get an answer, for example <em>Is the pope Catholic? </em>or <em>Can fish swim?</em>
Sentence variety refers to varying the length and structure of sentences in a composition to avoid monotony. Pacing is a stylistic device that shows how fast a story unfolds. Both can help the writer add emphasis to a specific part of the composition.
An analogy is a type of comparison between two things, usually to explain something, i.e. "as light as a feather."
An allusion is an expression to call something to mind, but it is not mentioned explicitly, for example, <em>Don't be a Romeo</em>, in reference to Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet."
An imperative sentence gives instructions or advice and expresses a suggestion, command, order, or direction. For example <em>Don't do that!</em>
Answer:
<u>Jax</u> will pay for (his) lunch with cash today.
Explanation:
"His" is not a pronoun. It is a possessive adjective: my, your, his, her, its, our, your, their. It is called so because it precedes a noun and modifies it. Therefore, if you say "his" lunch, it is not about any lunch; it is rather a specific one, belonging to a particular person.
The antecedent of "his" is "Jax", since "his lunch" refers to "Jax's lunch", that is, Jax is the person whose lunch we are talking about.

Dear Daniel,
It feels good to write you again. How are you doing? I hope your studies are going on well, and you are coping with the winter there in America. I am so excited about the new house that Papa just built and I can't wait to share the interesting details with you.
Last month, the duplex which has been an ongoing project was completed by our father. We moved in early this month it has really been fun living here. The house is made up of seven bedrooms with five upstairs and the remaining two downstairs. One of the two rooms downstairs is meant for the visitors while the other is for the domestic staff. I have one room upstairs and the room adjacent to mine was reserved for you. Papa and Mama have two rooms to themselves while Jessica stays in the one close to the main hall.
This house is very magnificent! The floor is fitted with white tiles, the ceiling has a beautiful POP while the paintings are beautifully and artistically done. We are now the talk of the town! Our new neighbors cannot help admiring our house and we have had a number of them coming in to have a better view. I love the new house and I believe you will love it too.
I am so proud of our dad! I can't wait for you to come back and tour the house. I just wanted to share the tip of the iceberg with you. More details will be shared in the next letter. Till then.
Love,
Betty.
