Practing and reciting the word
Answer:
The writer said, "I expect to be finished with this novel in a month."
Explanation:
1. <u>The writer said, 'I expect to be finished with this novel in a month.'</u>
This sentence is incorrect because it is using single quotation marks. Instead of single quotation marks, there should be double quotation marks since this is direct dialogue. If you were from England, this would be correct as they use single quotation marks to indicate dialogue.
2. <u>The writer said I expect to be finished with this novel in a month.</u>
This sentence is incorrect because it has no quotation marks to signify a quote, and there isn't a comma after the word "said" before the dialogue.
3. <u>The writer said, "I expect to be finished with this novel in a month."</u>
This sentence is correct because it is correctly punctuated. The comma after the word "said" is in its correct spot, the double quotation marks are surrounding the dialogue, and the period is within the quotation marks.
4. <u>The writer said "I expect to be finished with this novel in a month."</u>
This sentence is incorrect because there is no comma located after the word "said." A rule in English is to put a comma before introducing dialogue or material.
Alright, so for number 11. I would choose the third choice : an unbiased site, updated frequently. I choose this because you can get facts and " hard core" pure information without opinions altering it, that also is up to date so it is not dated. For number 17. I would choose the first choice : Non-fiction. I would choose this because the story of an author's life is true because it actually happened in real life. I hope this helps! : )
Part A was which statement best states the claim, or main point, that Bacon builds upon in this passage?
A. Holding high office causes people to do evil.
B. Holding high office is one of the noblest aspirations.
C. Holding high office has costs as great as any of the benefits.
D. Holding high office helps people serve others in many ways.
Answer:
C. Holding high office has costs as great as any of the benefits.
Explanation:
The statement that best states the claim that Bacon made in the passage is the third statement because it shows that holding high office comes at a great cost and that highly placed powerful people are really servants, both to the state, fame, or business which takes away a degree of their freedom.
Therefore, the correct answer is C. Holding high office has costs as great as any of the benefits.
