Which of the following sentences incorrectly uses a hyphen?

English
2 answers:
Fynjy0 [20]1 year ago
5 0

The sentence that incorrectly uses a hyphen is:

  • Be sure to get to the fair early; the later it gets, the more-crowded it is.

<h3>What is a hyphen?</h3>

A hyphen is a symbol that looks like a dash but is used to separate complex words. In the list of options provided we see the use of hyphens in separating complex words. However, the second sentence uses the hyphen in an incorrect manner.

There is no need to separate more and crowded. These are two distinct words that do not form a complex word. The best thing to do is to leave them as individual words. So we can say that option B makes use of the hyphen in a wrong manner.

Which element of a personal narrative would be best for Nick to include next?
Anastasy [175]

The element of a personal narrative that would be best for Nick to include next is:

A. a precise description of what the writer is witnessing when he says that he "could scarcely believe what [his] eyes were seeing."

  • This question is missing the paragraph that provides the context to be answered. I have found it online and attached it.
  • As we can see in the attached file, Nick's narrative, so far, has ended in <u>suspense</u>. Readers know there is something going on, but they do not know what it is.
  • Nick was lost in reflection when the animals began to make a lot of noise. <u>He can't even believe what he is seeing!</u> So what comes next?
  • Nick should now tell readers what he is seeing, giving a precise description that will quench readers' curiosity. This means letter A is the correct option.
  • <u>Letter B would be pointless</u>, since adding a line saying the <u>same thing</u> the narrator has just said would provide nothing new.
  • <u>Letter C </u>would be important, but not at this moment. It is more like a <u>conclusion</u> or <u>resolution</u>, after everything is done.
  • <u>Letter D is also pointless</u>. We already know the point of view is in first person. The whole paragraph is narrated using first-person pronouns.

Which two qualities do walt McCandless and his son have in common?
butalik [34]

Answer:

E. Intelligence and Intensity

Explanation:

The book mentions Walt's intensity and his intelligence. When Jon Krakauer goes to speak with Walt McCandless, he notes: "the set of his [Walt's] jaw betrays an undercurrent of nervous energy...there is no mistaking from whence Chris's intensity came". They also note several times at the intelligence of Mr. McCandless, and that of Chris is noted by several people throughout the book.

Good luck on your test! :)
