The correct answer is the last one.

The addition of the suffix -ion changes the root word from a verb to a noun.

Without the suffix, the word is "construct." This word is a verb meaning "to build." By adding the suffix -ion, the word "construct" becomes the word "construction." The word "construction" is a noun meaning "a building."

Therefore, the correct answer is the last one. The suffix turns a verb into a noun.

The essay required in this prompt is called an analytical essay. See a sample of same below.

<h3>What is the essay that analyzes how Tennyson uses Homer’s The Odyssey as a source for his depiction of the gods in The Lotos-Eaters?</h3>

It is clear to see that Tennyson uses Homer’s The Odyssey as a source for his depiction of the gods in The Lotos-Eaters.

In the referenced text, we see that Odysseus' sailors are made an emergency landing in an unfamiliar nation after a strong wind sweeps them past the island of Cythera on their way home following the destruction of Troy.

It is easy to see that there is a parallel between the use of winds by the gods to punish the sailors and that which occurred in the Odyssey.

The way in which the narrator conveys the mood in the opening scene at the Eldorado saloon is:

  • He shows the men arguing which of the sled dogs is the strongest.

The thing which I can infer from this quotation about <em>Thornton's relationship with Buck </em>is:

  • Their affair is becoming mysterious and this is shown as they both save each other's life. Thornton saves Buck from being beaten to death by Hal and Buck saves Thornton from drowning.

<h3>What is Inference?</h3>

This refers to the deduction which is made about something based on available information and predictions from the events.

Help with explaing romeo and juliet?
Sati [7]

Mercutio: the young Petrarchan lover. An audience favorite because he is a showstopper. Mercutio is a showstopper. He's dirty, funny, out of control, and—we'll say it—compared to him, Romeo and Juliet can seem whiny and repetitive. Mercutio is technically a minor character, but his personality has such a disproportionate impact that maybe he <em>has </em>to die or he would take over the play. In fact, English poet John Dryden said that Shakespeare himself admitted that he had to kill Mercutio—or else, he said, Mercutio would have killed him. HIs death is so important because Mercutio is portrayed as the middle character who links the play to different people and scenes. Shakespeare might have wanted him to be more of a friend to Romeo in the play. Mercutio helps in some aspects to confuse the audience. E.g. when he is dying, he says it is a scratch yet he is actually dying. Also, he curses both the families. The audience were not expecting this because firstly, he is a friend of both families and secondly, they would not have known that the hatred of both families killed Mercutio. Mercutio's death is so important to the plot because it shows where the play changes from comedy to tragedy as a main character, Mercutio dies. It is also important because from this point, the characters change and the mood is changed from being emotional to gloomy. Hope this helps! :)
