The sentence that is correctly punctuated is "Music makes almost any activity more enjoyable; nevertheless, yours is too loud," option 4, as explained below.

<h3>How to punctuate correctly</h3>

After analyzing the answer choices, we can see that the question is about the use of semicolons in punctuation. Let's take a look at each sentence individually to figure out why they are correct or incorrect:

Sentence 1 - Incorrect. We should not place a semicolon after "furthermore". We should use a comma instead.

Sentence 2 - Incorrect. There is no reason to add a semicolon between the two clauses. Again, it should be a comma.

Sentence 3 - Incorrect. Once again, the use of the semicolon is inappropriate. It should be a comma to isolate the word "however."

Sentence 4 - Correct. The semicolon is used to separate the two clauses and it comes before the conjunctive adverb "nevertheless."

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that option 4 is correctly punctuated.

Punctuation can be used as a style device to create all of the following except

Nitella [24]

Answer:

Verb agreement.

Explanation:

Punctuation marks are used for the following: to create pauses, flow, or rhythm within a sentence or a text. The way to do this is to use commas or periods to create pauses, commas or conjunctions to create flow, commas or colons to create rhythm, etc. However, one thing that punctuation cannot do is affect verb agreement. Verb agreement means that the subject and the predicate (verb) are in the same number: if the subject is singular, the verb will also be singular; if the subject is plural, so is the verb. This depends on the subject, not on punctuation.

Evaluate the culture presented in the story. What details do you notice that show this story is not taking place in the United S

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Descriptions of the setting, particularly the names of the streets, indicate "Araby" does not take place in the United States.*

*See explanation for a more in-depth answer

Explanation:

There are subtle ‘hints,’ or details, presented throughout the story that show “Araby” is not taking place in the United States. For starters, the story states these two specific street names: “North Richmond Street” and “Buckingham Street.” Now, these are two street names that America does have. There is a Richmond Street located in Palmdale, California and there is a Buckingham Street in Fullerton, California. Based on this information alone one might (unknowingly & incorrectly) assume that the story is taking place in America. However, there is one sentence in the story that reveals this story could not have taken place in the United States. Read the first sentence of “Araby”:

“North Richmond Street, being blind, was a quiet street except at the hour when the Christian Brothers' School set the boys free.”

According to this sentence, there is a Christian Brothers’ School located on North Richmond Street. Only one place in the world has an all boys school located on a street called North Richmond. That place is Dublin, Ireland. Therefore, based on the gathered information, it is safe to say that this story takes place in Dublin, Ireland; not the United States.

FUN FACT:

The Christian Brothers’ School on North Richmond Street changed its name to O’Connell Secondary School.

PLz do an 7 sentence objective summary about why Fortnite is an addiction to people all over the world.

vivado [14]

Answer:

That rush you get landing in Tilted Towers or pushing the last battle of the match isn't all in your head – but it does start there. Fast-paced games like Fortnite can trigger your brain's fight or flight response. Your body starts releasing hormones, like adrenaline, and your heart starts racing as you get into the match.

Your brain starts working hard, too. Any video game activates the visual-motor system of your brain – the regions that process what you see, and help you respond to it. But Fortnite also stimulates multiple areas of your brain as you combine aiming, strategy and building to win the fight.

All that hard psychological work means that when it pays off – by winning a fight or getting a Victory Royale – you get a big payoff. Specifically, good plays and wins trigger your brain's natural reward system, increasing feel-good hormones like dopamine and, overall, making you feel great.

On top of that, Fortnite is always changing, so there's always something new to explore. And a fast-paced match means the smallest mistake makes the difference between winning and losing – so you want to play another match because you were oh-so-close to victory.

You recently left an item ( example, a book, musical instrument etc) on a bus on your way home from school. Write a letter to yo

Anastasy [175]

Answer and Explanation:

Dear…,

Remember how you’re always telling me I am the most forgetful person you have ever met? Well, I guess that must be true. I myself have never met anyone more prone to forgetting things than I am.

Last week, on my way home from school, I left my backpack inside the bus. I know it sounds insane. How can someone coming back from school forget a whole backpack, filled with books, and not notice it until much later? As I said, you were right about me.

I only noticed it was missing when, after dinner, I decided to get started on my English essay. I had brought the books I would need with me – or, at least, I though I had. When I entered my room and walked toward the spot on the floor where I usually drop my backpack once I get home, I realized what had happened.

You can imagine my despair. Precious books, notes, and a couple of devices, all lost at once. It was a nightmare. And you can also imagine how much I feared telling mom. I knew there would be a whole lecture on how little attention I pay to things, on how irresponsible I can be sometimes…

I told her anyway. She did not lecture me. I was shocked. Instead, she helped me contact the people who could help. This was not the school bus, but a regular one. It turns out they had found and kept my backpack. All was good.

Or so I thought. Once it was all solved and I had my backpack lying on my lap while mom drove us both back home, the lecture finally happened. I can’t say I was annoyed or angry. Just embarrassed. And your words, my dear cousin, kept popping in my mind all the while. I don’t ever want to go through this again. I promise to pay more attention from now on.
