The dictionary is your answer

Answer:

Hi, I'm afraid you didn't put any of the sentences you are referring to, but I think I can respond anyways because the reference that would help someone check to see if a sentence uses the conventions of standard English is the dictionary. <u>The correct option is the first one.</u>

Explanation:

The dictionary is the only one of the options that will help you with the definition of the words as  ther are used in the standard English. The usage dictionary would apply if you were looking for the meaning of the words based in usage and not on the rules established as correctness. A grammar guide would help just with grammar and not with the meaning of the words, and a thesaurus would just give a list of synonyms and related concepts that will not help if what you are trying to do is check the correct meaning.

What is the most likely reason author Maya Angelou included this passage?
Anna71 [15]

Read the passage from “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings.”

I have tried often to search behind the sophistication of years for the enchantment I so easily found in those gifts. The essence escapes but its aura remains. To be allowed, no, invited, into the private lives of strangers, and to share their joys and fears, was a chance to exchange the Southern bitter wormwood for a cup of mead with Beowulf or a hot cup of tea and milk with Oliver Twist. When I said aloud, "It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done . . .” tears of love filled my eyes at my selflessness.

Read the rough-draft paragraph.
aivan3 [116]

The statement which best describes the mistake the writer makes in the paragraph is the following one:

The writer loses focus and shifts to another topic.

He starts off by pointing out the overall benefits of exercising, and supports his idea by also giving examples of activities people should engage in. However, focus is lost when the writer begins to address the importance of a balanced diet to the body. That would require a new paragraph.

<span>British government leaders didn't present the Zimmermann telegram to Wilson for a few weeks. Hall reminded them that outrage was growing in America over Germany's announcement late in the day of January 31 that the German navy would resume unrestricted submarine warfare. In fact, that policy provoked the U.S. government to cut diplomatic relations with Germany in February.</span>
