Answer:

c.He grows up to become a police officer

Explanation:

One of the definitions of Irony is: <em>"a state of affairs or an event that seems deliberately contrary to what one expects and is often amusing as a result".</em>

A thief is a criminal. And a criminal who grows up to become a law enforcer is deliberately contrary to what you would expect, most of the times. Therefore, it is an amusing result and it can be considered ironic.

write in active voice, "The predicted sharp edges characteristic of a cosmic string were observed by several teams".
jeyben [28]

Answer:

Several teams observed the predicted sharp edges characteristic of a cosmic string.

Explanation:

Active voice is when the subject is followed by the verb and then the object. Whereas, in a passive voice, the object assumes the starting point, folllowed by the verb and then the subject.

The sentence - <em>The predicted sharp edges characteristic of a cosmic string were observed by several teams</em>

is written in the passive voice. So, to change it into the active voice, the subject "several teams" will begin the sentence, followed by the verb "observed" and then the object.

Thus, the final sentence in the active voice will become

Several teams observed the predicted sharp edges characteristic of a cosmic string.

Assignment: 07.02 Establishing Argument Writing.
MAXImum [283]

Distracted driving is an irresponsible and harmful behavior adopted by some drivers, which ends up creating dangers to their own lives and the lives of others on the road.

The Florida government has been effective in the factors that are its responsibility to reduce drivers' distracted driving. This is because the government has provided good, clean and safe roads for its citizens, which reduces factors that can distract them. However, the responsibility for this type of behavior is small, and the drivers themselves are the main culprits for allowing this behavior to happen.

Driving is an act that needs full concentration, for this reason, whoever is driving should avoid factors that call their attention and the districts. These factors are: adjusting the radio while driving, talking on a cell phone, texting, eating or drinking, talking to passengers, putting on makeup or hairstyling, reading maps, watching videos and listening to audios.

Based on this, we can confirm that the government does have responsibility for safe driving, but the distance from distractions is the responsibility of the driver, who must perceive factors that take the attention away from his activity and can cause unsafe and harmful driving.

Discuss the character triad of Tesman, Lovborg, and Judge Brack. Explain each character’s role in the triad and how they foil ea
Contact [7]

Judge Brack is a friend of Tesman and his wife, a person who goes to their house a lot. He constantly puts himself into the business and affairs of the tesman, and can even say that with ulterior motives (interest in hedda, tesman's wife). Tesman, for his age, is naive and foolish, always trying to please Hedda, he competes for a professorship, and Brack passed on information about it, to lend him a hand and help him. All this with a hidden desire, the desire to approach Hedda. Lovborg in this triangle, is Tesman's biggest competitor in the academic world. At some point in this story, it is explicit that he and Haddad had a relationship. In that case, the three of them are connected to one person, Heddad. Tesman is aware of the competition with Lovborg, but does not know anything about Judge brack. The role of each of them is 3 men in love with the same woman. Tesman is the one close to Hedda, Judge brack is the one trying to be in the middle of their relationship, and lovborg hides an old relationship with her.
