Answer: B) struggles with his decision to kill the old man.

Explanation: in literature, a conflict is a struggle between opposite forces, usually between a character (the main character or a very important one) and himself (internal conflict), society or another character (external conflict). In the given excerpt from "The Tell-Tale Heart" we can see an example of an internal conflict, because the narrator explains how the old man has been always good with him, and yet he wants to kill him because of his vulture eye.

Select all the words that form the independent clause in the sentence. The movie, which we watched yesterday, was hilarious.

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The words that form the independent clause in the sentence "The movie, which we watched yesterday, was hilarious." are: The movie was hilarious.

Explanation:

There are two types of clauses:

Independent clauses: they can stand on their own. That is to say, that they make sense when we read them. There is no need for extra information to understand the meaning.

Dependent clauses: they can not stand on their own. In other words, they depend on another clause, which gives the necessary information to understand the meaning of the dependant clause.

Both types of clauses consist mainly of a subject and a verb, they are separated by commas, or they have subordinating conjunction at the beginning of the clause.

In this case, the clause between commas (which we watched yesterday) is the dependant clause. I can not fully understand the meaning of it when reading only that clause since information is missing. The clause The movie was hilarious is the independent clause because it can stand on its own.

Answer:

right this one gonna be about underage drinking

Explanation:

"How did you know?" I asked, not sure I wanted the answer. "I thought I had been careful. I thought he wouldn't notice if I drank a bit. Where did I go wrong?" Dad looked at me and sighed, the empty bottle still in his hand. "You really thought we wouldn't notice your 'morning headaches' aka your hangovers, or all the bottles in your room? Careful is one thing you were not! Underage drinking is against the law, plus you drank too much! I'm a cop Aurora! but I can't very well arrest my own daughter, now can I?" Dad just sighed and shook his head. " Since I can't arrest you, and you and I both know that you're not going to stop, let me tell you what 'safe' is. Eat food before you drink. Skip a bottle every now and then. Lord knows it won't harm you to." He pulled me into a hug. " Most importantly, know how much you're having. I love you Aurora." "...I love you too dad."
