8 0

The answer is the first option. Betty Friedan agreed with the logic and said it proved the ruling showed prejudice against women. She was the president of the National Organization for Women which promotes equal rights for men and women. In the case, Judge Carswell wrongfully allowed discrimination against the woman who wasn't able to get a job for having pre-school children. As a result, Chief Judge John Brown did not agree with this judgment. In support of Brown's dissent, she presented statistics in her speech which further promotes her advocacy for gender equality.

Which sentence contains an error in the use of end marks or commas?

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

The first sentence contains an error in the use of the end mark:

A) How on Earth did you fix that lamp.

Explanation:

The second sentence "Take these tomatoes over to Mr. Jackson." is in the imperative mood, which is a grammatical mood used to express requests and commands. It is common for imperative sentences to be finished with either end marks or exclamation marks, it depends on the feeling and urgency that needs to be conveyed. If it ends in an end mark, we may assume it is more of a request than it is a command, and the tone is not aggressive.

The last sentence is a declarative sentence, which is a structure used to state a fact, to offer information. A declarative sentence is the opposite of a question. It is typically closed by end marks, although it can present exclamation marks depending on the feeling conveyed.

The first sentence, however, is a question. A question is a structure used to ask for confirmation or information. Questions should end in question marks, otherwise the punctuation won't be in accordance to the purpose of the structure. If I said, "How on Earth did you fix that lamp.", I'd be punctuating the structure as a declarative sentence - and my intonation would be off when reading it. But if I say, "How on Earth did you fix that lamp?" the question mark at the end will reflect my asking for information - and my intonation when reading it will be appropriate.

Complete the second sentence so that it has a similar meaning to the first sentence using the word given.

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

1. If you happened to go to the shops, could you buy me some toothpaste?

2. They'll return his money as long as he has the original receipt.

3. We won't be able to go to Paris unless we have enough money.

4. If only we had gone to the party yesterday.

5. You'll be able to contact her any time in case you need her help.

Explanation:

1. If you happened to go to the shops, could you buy me some toothpaste?

In this sentence, "happened" is used to mean the same intention of asking for help.

2. They'll return his money as long as he has the original receipt.

The use of the phrase "as long as" presents a valid reason for why or how the refund will be given, which is the same as "but only if".

3. We won't be able to go to Paris unless we have enough money.

"Unless" is and can be used to mean the same as "if" for it presents a condition for a successful 'action/result'.

4. If only we had gone to the party yesterday.

Using "if only" in the sentence presents the same feeling of regret in "what a shame".

5. You'll be able to contact her any time in case you need her help.

The use of the phrase "in case" presents the same intention of a need and replaced the word "because".
