I would pick D) also known as the Big Apple, New York City is a lively, colorful city full of sounds
This is a quote by Elizabeth Proctor.
It is an important quote from <em>The Crucible </em>(1953) by Arthur Miller, a play that explores the story of the Salem witch trials in Massachussets in 1692.
In the play, Elizabeth Proctor is accused of witchcraft by Abigail Williams, her husband's mistress. In that way, the quote is from Elizabeth to John. In this excerpt of the play, she is talking about Abigail, who apparently wants to take Elizabeth's place. Therefore, Elizabeth uses these words to explain her husband that his mistress accuses her of witchcraft because she is motivated by jealously.
a) when a friend says something surprising
Answer:
B,by questioning you get to study someones mind by his answers.
Answer:
The words that form the independent clause in the sentence "The movie, which we watched yesterday, was hilarious." are: The movie was hilarious.
Explanation:
There are two types of clauses:
- Independent clauses: they can stand on their own. That is to say, that they make sense when we read them. There is no need for extra information to understand the meaning.
- Dependent clauses: they can not stand on their own. In other words, they depend on another clause, which gives the necessary information to understand the meaning of the dependant clause.
Both types of clauses consist mainly of a subject and a verb, they are separated by commas, or they have subordinating conjunction at the beginning of the clause.
In this case, the clause between commas (which we watched yesterday) is the dependant clause. I can not fully understand the meaning of it when reading only that clause since information is missing. The clause The movie was hilarious is the independent clause because it can stand on its own.
