The correct answer is C) The doctors finally realized that Janelle has diabetes, a disease that affects the body’s blood sugar.

Explanation:

The purpose of combining two or more sentences is to create a new sentence by putting together the key information of the original sentences in a concise, coherent, and clear sentence. In this case, sentence 5 "This disease affects the body’s blood sugar" relates to sentence 4 because this explains what diabetes is. Due to this, the information about diabetes altering blood sugar needs to be added to the first sentence.

The best way to do this is "The doctors finally realized that Janelle has diabetes, a disease that affects the body’s blood sugar" because this integrates the information of both sentences omitting unnecessary words such as "a diseases called"; also, connecting the information of sentence 5 with a comma is grammatically correct, and makes the sentence to flow in all the paragraph. This is important because other options have punctuation mistakes or do not organize information properly.

Of their married felicity but little is known, perhaps for the reason that Tennessee, then living with his partner, one day took
Svet_ta [14]

The themes of friendship and loyalty are developed in the first excerpt from Bret Harte's "Tennessee's Partner" by suggesting three infidelities, since the character Tennessee courted his Partner's wife, and the bride accepted him, but later on she abandoned him and went out with another man. The excerpt also suggests a strong affection and loyalty from Tennessee's Partner towards Tennessee, even though he has stolen his wife. The second excerpt likewise reflects Tennessee's Partner's unconditional affection and admiration for Tennessee, even after his death. The character's delirium is making him seeing his beloved friend, whom he fondly calls "old girl", coming his way. He struggles to accomplish his goal of putting him (his dead body) in the cart.
