English

Lisa [10]2 years ago

Answer:

The answer is letter D. Neither beauty nor popularity was considered in the contest.

Explanation:

Correlative conjunctions are used in pairs:

  1. both ...  and
  2. either ... or
  3. neither ... nor
  4. not only ... but also
  5. not ... but

Their function is to correlate words or phrases that have the same importance in a sentence.

Since the correct pairing is "neither ... nor", the only correct option is letter D. "Neither ... nor" gives a negative meaning to both the words or phrases they accompany. In the sentence we are studying here, beauty was not considered in the contest. Popularity was also not considered in the contest.

Ralph states, "We won’t be painted because we aren’t savages."  Interpret this statement, and share how this statement supports
stepan [7]

Answer:

The phrase spoken by Ralph reforms his attempt to maintain the civility and order to which they are accustomed. This reinforces the theme of a piece of civility and an attempt to hide who it really is.

Explanation:

This question is about the book "The lord of the flies" that tells the story of a group of English boys who fall on a paradisiac island and that as time goes on, they end up corrupting their human natures and the concept of civility giving themselves completely to savagery. Among these boys Ralph is the one who tries to organize them and prevent them from living like wild freaks.

Many boys decide to paint their faces to justify their decisions to live as wild hunters and not civilized boys, but Raph knows that this will create complete chaos and says that the boys will not pretend to be something they are not and therefore no one will paint their faces, as long as he can prevent it.
