C is the answer, as the 'and' connecting to two ideas in the sentence doesn't negate or give connotations to his intentions like the other answers did.

Answer:

c) keith knew that it was his sister's birthday, and he didn't want to make a big deal about it.

Explanation:

We don´t know what does keith do not want to do a big deal about, it could be that it happened something bad to him at school, or that he is down because he broke up with his girlfriend, the sentence that better expresses with no negative or positive connotation, like saying that he didn´t want to make a big deal out of his sister´s birthday, is the third one, "keith knew that it was his sister's birthday, and he didn't want to make a big deal about it"

In at least 100 words, explain the significance of Bartleby's mantra "I would prefer not to" in Melville's short story "Bartleby
galina1969 [7]

The choice of this phrase has a paradoxical meaning in a way that Bartleby refuses to do the task asked from him and the expression of this rejection. It is a refusal, but at the same time it is a polite refusal because even when his boss asks again "You will not?", he answers again with "I prefer not". The phrase emphasizes Bartleby's passive resistance. The different use of the phrase, of course could have had a different effect in the story. It might cause a different demonstration and a different ending for the story. The boss could have replied differently because the refusal would be not polite then. However, the choice is intentional because of the development of the story. Therefore, it is suitable in its own way.

Write two sentences about events you remember from history. Include a compound object in each sentence. Identify the objects
butalik [34]
The great Roman Empire was so powerful that it conquered a large part of Europe, as well as parts of Africa and Asia.
The Puritans had to face many obstacles and mischiefs on their way to the New World.
__________________________________________________
The compound objects are bold
If a direct object is the recipient of action of the verb (what the verb does to something/someone), a compound direct object is composed of two or more such recipients.

Which of these is an example of a hasty generalization? A. She likes mayonnaise, so I think she will like anchovies. B. Their do
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Hello there!

Correct answer is D: He's the president of the chess club, so he must not like sports.

Hasty generalization is an informal fallacy of faulty generalization by reaching an inductive generalization based on insufficient evidence. In this case, just one fact is given: He's the president of the chess club; and automatically we can not make a conclusion such as: so he must not like sports, because we do not have enough evidence.  The use of must not is also a key to identify the generalization.

Hope this helps!

Mark as brainliest, please.
