Choice B uses 'blow', which is the base form of the verb and is not correct in the past tense. Choice C, 'blowing', represents a present participle which would require auxiliary verbs to be correct, and choice D uses 'blown', which is the past participle and also would require an auxiliary verb to be used correctly.

Dear Callie,
It has been a fun, exciting vacation. The tour guide who has become a good friend is great! I think you would have loved this trip because you love excitement. After I get home, we should plan a trip together.
Sincerely,

Choose the best revision of the sentence that contains the error.
The tour guide who has become, a good friend is, great!
The tour guide who has become a good friend, is great!
The tour guide, who has become a good friend is great!
The tour guide, who has become a good friend, is great!
Answer:
The tour guide, who has become a good friend, is great!
Explanation:
The commas help separate the two ideas in one sentence correctly. A good way to check that this is correct is to remove the words separated by the commas - "who has become a good friend" - and check if the sentence still makes sense. In this case it would be "The tour guide is great!" which makes sense as a sentence. Thus, this version of the sentence is correct.

Read the quotation from "Ain't I a Woman?" Where did your Christ come from? Where did your Christ come from? From God and a woman! Man had nothing to do with Him. How does this quotation support the central idea of the speech? It reinforces the idea that Truth’s personal experiences have greatly influenced her ideas. It reminds the audience that Truth has strong spiritual and political ideals. It supports that idea that women deserve equality by referencing religious authority. It affirms the notion that religion can’t be used as a basis for unequal treatment.
Answer:
It affirms the notion that religion can't be used as a basis for unequal treatment.
Explanation:
Answer:
It affirms the notion that religion can’t be used as a basis for unequal treatment
Explanation:
In Sojourner Truth’s Speech of 1851, "Ain't I a Woman", the quotation supports the idea of the speech because this part about Christ conveys how he came from god and a woman not from man himself.
She empowers women and also thinks men shouldn’t have thought so poorly of women back then.
It does also support the idea that women deserve equality by referencing religious authority, however this is not the central idea of the speech.
Which sentence is the best use of passive voice? The door was opened by Katrina when the bell was rung by Lana. Water is formed by two molecules of hydrogen and one of oxygen. The story was read by each person in the class, taking turns. This paper airplane was folded by Andrea and thrown at me.
Answer:
b
Explanation:
water is formed by two parts of hydrogen and one part of oxygen
Answer: The sentence that provides the best use of passive voice is the second one: "Water is formed by two molecules of hydrogen and one of oxygen".
Explanation: Passive voice is widely used in English; however, in some cases, it is not recommended to use it. For example, passive voice needs to be avoided when it makes a sentence too wordy or when it affects the natural flow of the sentence. In that way, the use of the passive voice in "The door was opened by Katrina when the bell was rung by Lana", "The story was read by each person in the class, taking turns" and "This paper airplane was folded by Andrea and thrown at me" makes the sentences sound unnatural. On the other hand, "Water is formed by two molecules of hydrogen and one of oxygen" offers the best use of passive voice since it is recommended to use passive voice when we talk about general truths, that is to say when we make reference to a fact, such as the composition of water in the second sentence.

Write four to six sentences explaining the use of extended metaphor in the poem caged bird” by maya angelou.
Answer:
This poem is an extended metaphor. Although the speaker doesn't mention any races, it is clear that she is showing how the freedoms allotted whites are diametrically opposed to those given to the blacks. In the first stanza, the speaker illustrates how the free bird, or white race, is untroubled. It also shows how the white race has the audacity to own and govern society unjustly. The speaker concludes'' (the free bird) dares to claim the sky". This shows how whites demonstrated discrimination and prejudice toward blacks. Unfortunately, this deplorable conduct was condoned in society.
Explanation:
Answer:
The poem itself is a metaphor from start to finish. The caged bird is representative of those who lack freedom.... everyone experiencing restrictions and oppression. The cage represents exactly what we'd believe, a form of imprisonment. The bird's song symbolizes the cries of freedom, and the combination of the two represents the need for every living thing to reach its full potential, something that cannot be done amid barriers and fear.

Two related independent clauses can be joined by a semicolon and a
comma
conjunctive adverb
dependent clause
prepositional phrase
Answer:
Conjunctive Adverbs
Explanation:
Conjunctions combine words, phrases and clause. They must be followed by a comma, to transition the thoughts.
In other words, they are used to connect two ideas into one full sentence.
Independant Clauses, are already two full ideas, so cannot be combined with a comma. They would already make two full sentences
Adverbs or words that add relevant details to an existing thought. They change or add meanings to the actions in a sentence.
So, when you need to join two independent clauses using a conjunctive adverb you can combine and transition the two thoughts; while also giving them significant details. This proves they have a reason to be connected
Two related independent clauses can be joined by a semicolon and a
conjunctive adverb.
What do you undersand by conjuction and its applications?
Conjunctions join words, expressions and condition. They should be trailed by a comma, to progress the considerations. At the end of the day, they are utilized to interface two thoughts into one full sentence.
This are now two full thoughts, so can't be joined with a comma. They would as of now make two full sentences. Modifiers or words that add pertinent subtleties to a current idea. They change or add implications to the activities in a sentence.
Along these lines, when you want to join two autonomous conditions utilizing a conjunctive qualifier you can consolidate and progress the two considerations; while additionally giving them huge subtleties. This demonstrates they have motivation to be associated.

Read the excerpt from part one of Trifles. COUNTY ATTORNEY. How did she seem to feel about you coming? HALE. Why, I don’t think she minded—one way or the other. She didn’t pay much attention. I said, “How do, Mrs. Wright, it’s cold, ain’t it?” And she said, “Is it?”—and went on kind of pleating at her apron. . . . And then she—laughed. I guess you would call it a laugh. How does this dialogue further develop the idea that Mrs. Wright may have had a motive for killing her husband?
Answer:
It suggests that she did not care about his death.
Explanation:
Mrs. Wright, a character in the play Trifles, kills her husband because of her loneliness. The police and her neighbors come to her house to investigate. Mrs. Hale, when asked about how Mrs. Wright behaved, says that she laughed after killing her husband.
It would seem based on this that Mrs. Wright didn't feel anything bad about her husband's death. She experienced severe loneliness and depression in her small-town, rural life, that she didn't see another escape other than murdering her own husband. Even though the husband did not treat her badly, per se, she still felt the need to get rid of him and regain her freedom.

Foreshadowing
Ironic
Metaphorical

foreshadowing dude to her choice of words im gonna say foreshadowing safely
Answer:
The answer to the question: Hedda´s words here could be considered:___, would be: Foreshadowing.
Explanation:
Foreshadowing is a literary device in which an author seeks to stimulate an audience´s interest in the work by giving readers small peeks into what has happened, is happening, or will happen in the future, in a story. This device is usually applied at the beginning of stories, or of chapters, precisely because they become like the small hook that invites a reader to continue reading so they can discover the full plot behind that small hint. In this case, we have Hedda, the main character of Henrik Ibsen´s play "Hedda Gabler", which was first presented in 1891. In act 4, in this particular excerpt, Hedda begins talking and making reference to an yet unknown act, a deed that according to her takes great courage, and which she considers as an act of beauty. The words used by Hedda open up the hunger of the reader to understand what is it that Hedda is hinting about, what is that deed that to someone as dark as her, would be considered beautiful and courageous. This is why this excerpt shows foreshadowing.

Oceans produce approximately 80 percent of the oxygen our planet needs to support animal life. Pollution that reaches the ocean through dumping, oil leaks, runoff, and other processes interferes with that oxygen production and poses a real threat to the oxygen content in our atmosphere. If the oxygen content decreases, it is likely that carbon dioxide will increase. This could have dramatic consequences for life as we know it.
Which does this passage indicate causes a decrease of oxygen in the atmosphere?
Answer:
Pollution of the oceans
Explanation:
The oceans are the largest storage and producer of oxygen on the planet. They have by far the most producers, which use the carbon dioxide and release the oxygen as a waste product. That oxygen ends up into the ocean waters, and from the ocean waters into the atmosphere. The humans though are breaking up this natural cycle with the enormous pollution they cause in the oceans. Fossil fuels, plastics, electronics, very often end up in the oceans, harming the living organisms, including the producers, resulting in their decline, thus decline in the levels of oxygen produced and released into the atmosphere.
