The best revision of this sentence is the following:

The lawyer presented a clear argument to the jury (it was unbelievable how influenced they were by his case) in the hopes of winning the trial.

A pair of parentheses needs to be used in order to separate this information from the rest of the sentence and facilitate reading and comprehension. The information in the parentheses is related to the meaning of the sentence but in some way it interrupts the flow, so a pair of parentheses is necessary in order to indicate this.

romanna [79]

Answer:

She is nervous.

Explanation:

We can infer that Luiza is nervous because the text states it in many ways. For instance, the text states, "She wiped a drip of sweat from her forehead." This shows that she is nervous because she started to sweat. Also, it says, "Her hand shook as she brought her bow to the  instrument's strings." This shows that she is nervous because her hand shook which means she shivered. Therefore, we can infer that Luiza is nervous.

Consider the last 3 stanzas of the poem. What effect does this conclusion produce in the overall poem?
zubka84 [21]

Answer and explanation:

<u>The final stanzas of the poem "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" by T. S. Eliot bring a sad and hard conclusion to the poem.</u> The poem as a whole is a pessimistic one. The speaker, Prufrock, is an unsatisfied man both carnally and spiritually. He is a loner, incapable of establishing relationships and connections with other human beings. He does want and wish for it. But even in his imagination, women despise him and criticize the way he looks and acts. He clearly has a self-esteem issue that, instead of being addressed and treated, only grew worse with time. Now it completely prevents him from living a normal life.

<u>The conclusion of the poem is even more pessimistic. The speaker does not believe he will ever be happy. He compares women and the happiness they represent to mermaids. As we know, in Greek mythology, mermaids would sing to sailors with the purpose of enchanting them. Sailors who heard their song would end up drowning. Prufrock thinks he will drown as well, but when reality wakes him up from the mermaid's dream. The mermaids, after all, do not sing for him. He watches himself growing older, stranger, weaker, more coward and less desirable.</u>
