Answer: He noticed that the songs upset Odysseus.

When Odysseus is at the court of Alcinous, the king hosts a banquet and games in honor of his guest. At that banquet, the blind man Demodocus is invited, and he sings about the quarrel between Odysseus and Achilles at Troy. Although everyone seems to enjoy the song, Odysseus is upset because it brings painful memories of the past. The king notices this, and he decides to end the feast.

What is the central idea of the letter to the editor?
Tpy6a [65]

I would think its D. because in the story "Letter to the editor" How are mixed-use areas different from what we have now? Let me tell you. Our city currently has a dense downtown area and then a massive amount of sprawl reaching out in every direction—the sprawl takes up seventy-five percent of the city’s land. Urban sprawl, the spreading of large developments of housing and shopping areas around a city’s center, has many negative cultural and environmental effects. Sprawl increases traffic congestion along highways. The residents who live in these faraway suburbs often work downtown, where the majority of businesses are still located. They have to undertake long commutes to and from work every day, which limits their time with family and friends and increases their time alone on the road. These longer commutes also result in increased air pollution that can lead to smog problems for the city.

Which dialogue is punctuated
Rom4ik [11]

The correct answer is A. The captain said, "But he needn't come round when you are on watch, Mr. Brown."

Explanation

There are many rules for correct writing. One of them states that when quotation marks are used, the period at the end of the sentence must be placed within quotation marks. On the other hand, another grammar rule states that when an introductory sentence is given, it must be separated from the quotation by a comma. According to the above rules, the correct answer is A. because the introductory part "The captain said" is separated from the second part of the sentence using a comma. Also, the second part of the sentence that is between the quotation marks, places the final period within the quotation marks. So the correct answer is A. The captain said, "But he needn't come round when you are on watch, Mr. Brown."
