Answer:

C) Happiness

Explanation:

The word "felicity" refers to "happiness." In this excerpt, the author wants to show that the person in question went from a feeling of agitation and stress to one of happiness. We can also observe this in the fact that the person suddenly "became calmer and more happy" when he realized that he was actually happy, or that he was in a state of "felicity."

siniylev [52]

The correct answer is B) The first excerpt uses facts and statistics and the second excerpt is told as a story.

We can clearly appreciate how despite both excerpts have the same theme they relay the information in different ways. The first excerpt is clearly an article about Kids from Honduras who were leaving their country due to violence and the author uses statistics to prove his/her point whereas the second one is an excerpt from 'Entrique's Journey' that's related to the refugee situation..

crimeas [40]

Answer: 1. incorrect explanation construction, 2. split infinitive 3. dangling construction 4. poor parallel structure

Explanation:

1.uses is when or is where <u>matches</u> with incorrect explanation construction

2.occurs when an adverb or other word is placed between to and the verb <u>matches</u> with split infinitive

3. does not clearly connect to the word or phrase for which it was intended <u>matches</u> with dangling construction

4. uses dissimilar grammatical constructions <u>matches</u> with poor parallel structure

1. Incorrect explanation construction matches with when or where because those are the words used when it comes to incorrect explanation of some construction in the sentence. Incorrect tenses are one of the usual issues when it comes to grammar.

2. When we have in the sentences 'to' places between verb and adverb that is making a split infinitive. For example, We were told to read each book correctly.

3. Dangling construction is considering group of modifier words instead of noun or phrase in the sentence. The modifier is used to describe a noun or phrase.

4. When it comes to parallel structure, there are sentences that have the same or equivalent meaning but they are not similar grammatically and that is why it is called dissimilar construction.
