I think it's C.

Because, lemme put commas on each sentences....

(1) If you ask me, Jerry is a tennis whiz. 

<span>(2) When she is worried, Lucille eats a lot. </span>

<span>(3) Jerry loves tennis, he plays everyday. </span>

<span>(4) Lucille bought a new tennis racket and brought it home. << Where should I put it?
</span>
So, (4) is automatically out of question. (1) and (2) seems okay with comma, but (3) is a little bit weird. (3) supposed to have 'and' in the middle, but it's not there. So, you can put semicolon there, to separate the words.

ELIE WIESEL’S “THE PERILS OF INDIFFERENCE” SPEECH How do paragraphs 14-15 contribute to the development of the text’s central id
ollegr [7]

Answer:

Paragraphs 14-15 of Elie Wiesel's "The peril's of indifference speech" contributed to the central idea of the text because Wiesel talks in ironic way about the holocaust in Auschwitz by saying that the government of other countries if they knew what was happening to the Jews under Hitler's ruling, would have helped them. but the world knew the situation and did nothing to avoid many deaths that occured hence the name "perils of indifference'

Explanation:

In parapraph 14-15 Wiesel's says that in those darkest times inside the death camps, they felt abandoned and forgotten and that their consolation was that they believe that Auschwitz and Trablinka were closely guarded secrets and believed that the free world leaders did not know what was going on and that if they knew in their thought, believes the leaders would have intervened. but they later found out that the leaders knew what was happening.

Elie Wiesel and his family was taken by the Nazis to the Auschwitz extermination camp and brutalized in 1944. He gave this speech "perils of indifference' at  the white house in 1999 where he talked about their time in captivity and how apathy can be dangerous because himself and others felt abandoned there.

kari74 [83]

C correctly shows what should have been done in A and B.
D should not have a comma after "but".

C is the correct answer.
