Answer:

The infinitives are beside each other, but one does not contain the other.

Explanation:

<em>Infinitives are the basic form of the verb without any articulation links it to the subject. The sentence provided here employs two infinitives "to try" and "to write" back to back and beside each other. The sentence is correct as the usage of two base forms of the verbs has often been witnessed. However, the infinitives are beside each other yet they do not contain each other as each is displaying its meaning clearly and effectively. Thus, the last option is correct.</em>

Answer:

Once you have determined the existence of a duty, you must determine whether or not the defendant has breached his duty. A defendant can breach his duty both by acting in a certain manner or by failing to act in a certain manner. That is to say, a defendant can breach his duty either by acting in a manner that violates the reasonable man test, or by not acting in a situation where he is legally required to act.

That being said, the accident could've been avoided if Rachel had not gotten angry and thrown the frying pan out of the window. She failed to act properly.

Mkey [24]

The following answers would be best for this question would be:

<span>1.       </span>First of all, he asked Miss Lucas. I was so vexed to see him stand up with her! "His pride," said Miss Lucas, "does not offend me so much as pride often does, because there is an excuse for it. One cannot wonder that so very fine a young man, with family, fortune, everything in his favour, should think highly of himself. If I may so express it, he has a right to be proud."

 

<span>2.       </span>"That is very true," replied Elizabeth, "and I could easily forgive his pride, if he had not mortified mine."

The man at the gas station gave me directions and then kept on chatting, telling me about the weather to come and places to stay
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Meaning of laconic

It's the style of talking, people who answer in the few brief words. So, in this passage it shows that wife doesn't talk generally, but briefly, since it also says "occasionally correcting him on his lefts and rights", so she didn't really give the directions she just corrected his husband.

Read each statement, and identify whether it conveys an objective tone.
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Introduction:

We use an objective tone to provide information in a neutral, impersonal way.<em> An objective tone focuses only in the facts and sticks to the information only</em>, it avoids personal pronouns and judgmental words.

When a text tells us something about the writer (his opinion or how he feels about the subject) we are using a subjective tone.

Answer:

You will regret not listening to me if you fail to use my solution.

  • <em>This statement is</em><em> not written in an objective tone</em><em>, because the writer is expressing his opinion on how the reader will feel if he or she doesn't use the writer's solution. </em>

  • <em>This statement </em><em>is not using an objective tone</em><em>, it is using a subjective tone because the writer lets us know he is excited for having one of his best ideas.</em>
