The revision which would most improve sentence 7 is the one that follows:

Suggest an alternative plan to replace the current school calendar. Explain why it is outdated and inefficient. Express an opinion about those who oppose changing it. Restate the strongest piece of evidence used to support the claim.

Comments: The paragraph above contains instructions for a school assignment or something like that. Since there were instructions, it was necessary to change the verbs from "ing" form to imperative (used to give orders, commands,instructions). Punctuation had to be changed as well: a few pauses were added, and that was done with periods (.). In order to make it less repetitive, it was the right choice to replace "the current school calendar" with the pronoun "it" (third person singular) from the second time we talked about "the current school calendar" on.

Answer:

A). Another argument parents often make is that children spend too much time on social media.

Explanation:

Wordiness is characterized as the grammatical error in which the writer employs too many words. This clutters the meaning of the sentence and affects its clarity and impact that it is supposed to create. It misleads the reader and confuses them.

As per the question, the first option most aptly removes the wordiness of the given sentence and conveys the key idea of the actual paragraph more clearly and specifically. Thus, the writer must use a precise vocabulary that helps in conveying the intended idea in a simple, clear, and direct manner that is easy to be understood. Hence, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.

Gonzalo: I have great comfort from this fellow: methinks he hath no drowning-mark upon him; his complexion is perfect gallows. S
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

(i)   The person being referred to in this extract is Boatswain.

Boatswain is a character in Shakespeare's "The Tempest" who appears not more than twice in the play. His job is to run the ship during the tempest. He is a senior crew member, who overseas the deck crew, manages the ship's lines and sails, and the anchors

(II) Gonzalo happens to be is a fictional character in William Shakespeare's Play. A counselor to the King. From the play, it is clear that Boatswain had hurt his pride:

First by ignoring his question about the where about of the king twice.

Second, by speaking to him in a derogatory manner regardless of his position. Botswain had asked him to use his political powers which at that time was useless against the storm to save them or get out of the way. He was practically ordered to get back into his Cabin. See this excerpt:

<em>Boatswain</em>

<em>    When the sea is. Hence! What cares these roarers</em>

<em>    for the name of king? To cabin: silence! trouble us not.</em>

So, Gonzalo with a lot of hurt but care for his own life retreats into his cabin below the deck as he does so wishes that Boatswain will save the ship so that everyone is saved including himself but moreso that he will have the opportunity to hang him when the ship got to land.

So Gonzalo derives great comfort for two reasons:

  1. because based on his estimation of the situation, the ship will not sink under the administration of Boatswain because he is an expert at what he does. He actually prays to Fate to ensure that he does not sink the ship.
  2. If the ship will not sink, then he (Gonzalo) will have the opportunity to mete out the punishment which he strongly wanted for Boatswain for his insolence and derogatory manners towards him.

See the part where he prays to Fate to ensure that the Boatswain is successful in his enterprise:

<em> "Standfast good Fate, to his hanging! make the rope of his destiny our cable, for our own doth little advantage. If he be not born to be hanged, our case if miserable.  </em>

<em />

If there was a chance that the ship will sink, that meant that he would have to die

  1. horribly along with Boatswain by drowning
  2. without a chance to redeem his pride.

<em />

Cheers!

enot [183]
1. You can see through the comparison to a mountain, that the grandpa is tall and always there 'looming' (hovering) over the speaker. You can see that the speaker does not speak much around his grandpa, as he is "silent as a stone". 

2. These details show that the speaker is impressed by his grandpa and looks up to him the way a stone would look up to a mountain-it shows that he hopes one day he will grow to be like his grandpa. 

3. The theme of this poem is shown through the way the speaker looks at his grandpa and the shed. The shed needs more than paint because it is so old, which relates to his grandpa and the theme of growing older.
