b.subordinate clause.

A subordinate clause is essentially a sentence fragment. It can't stand by itself and make sense. That means it is dependent on an independent clause for meaning. It can be connected to that independent clause either before or after it.

Ex.

Dependent (subordinate) clause:  when you get home

Independent clause: We will watch TV.

Combined: We will watch TV when you get home.

Combined: When you get home, we will watch TV.

Is a personal account that does NOT contain fact-based details reliable? Explain your rationale.
lora16 [44]
No, because as you said it "does NOT contain fact-based details" therefore it is not reliable. If something doesn't contain fact-based details, it isn't reliable.

Read the sentence. When asked about his plan to reduce taxes, the candidate said, “Improving the unemployment rate is important.
zheka24 [161]

The logical connection is absent. The answer lacks any explanation to the question being made. The main problem is that the interviewer is left with a very incomplete response, one that requires a lot of work from part of the interviewer. In this case in particular, even if there were a connection between reducing rates and unemployment, it seems that the candidate does not really have an answer to the question.  That is why the fallacy is the lack of connection or relevance between the question and the answer

Which lines from Ovids "pyramids and Thisbe" contain an example of characterization?
9966 [12]

This question is incomplete because the options were not given; here is the complete question:

Which lines from Ovid’s "Pyramus and Thisbe" contain an example of characterization?

A. Ringed by the tall brick walls Semíramis had built—so we are told.

B. If you searched all the East, you'd find no girl with greater charm than Thisbe.

C. The wall their houses shared had one thin crack, which formed when they were built and then was left

D. When first light had banished night's bright star-fires from the sky and sun had left the brine-soaked meadows dry

The answer to this question is B. "If you searched all the East, you'd find no girl with greater charm than Thisbe"

Explanation:

In literature, characterization involves using details to explain the traits of characters, this includes their personality, physical traits, qualities, among others. This literary device can be seen in the excerpt "If you searched all the East, you'd find no girl with greater charm than Thisbe" because, in this, the narrator describes Thisbe, who is one main character of the story. Also, the narrator focuses on one important trait of this character, which is her greater charm that according to the narrator could only be found in Thisbe.

AJennifer Lawrence in Hunger Games: Catching Fire

All hail Katniss Everdeen of The Hunger Games trilogy. If you are the mother of a pre-teen girl, you will know the whispered relief around these films. "About time. Go!" If you would like your teenage daughter to see something other than the underclass sobbing on a crass talent show, orange twentysomethings Botoxing themselves, or girls who are just "naturally thin" and who giggle when their clothes just drop off, then you will already know about them. If, like me, you simply would like to see a young woman not defined by her relationship to men, crack open the pick 'n' mix.

Clearly I am not alone. Nor is my youngest. Catching Fire, the sequel to The Hunger Games, has had the fourth biggest box office weekend opening in history. Ever since the first film came out, my daughter read the books by Suzanne Collins and we have a shrine to Peeta, Katniss's fellow contestant.

The books are neither warm nor easy, but then dystopian futures of totalitarian states (Panem, as it is called) only work when they're not so far from the imagination. In The Hunger Games, the rich and powerful control the Capitol and dress in grotesque Gaga-ish costumes while the poor live out in the Districts and are treated with increasing contempt.

This is a police state where "peacekeepers" kill and torture. Hegemony is maintained by giving them very little – that's why Katniss learned to hunt illegally – but staging huge spectacles: each District is "reaped" to find two people who are chosen for the televised Hunger Games.

So this is a satire on the kind of TV that its target audience watches. The games are a brutal contest to kill every other contestant. It is the logical conclusion of reality TV: survival of the fittest. At the centre of this is Katniss, played by the sparky Jennifer Lawrence, who is seen on red carpets in apparently awful outfits. What do I know? Every time I read these gown-downs, as I call them, I like the ones the fashionistas hate (Bjork wearing a swan being my all-time favourite). We have seen Lawrence being chatted up on camera by sleazoid Jack Nicholson, who, to be fair, is only three times her age. And we have seen her lose it in front of the paparazzi, screaming: "Stop. Stop. Stop." So she isn't just acting cool, she is cool and aware that she wants to keep her body healthy-looking, not a size zero.

The obligation to be a role model is daunting and modern. I can't remember wanting to be anyone other than Mr Spock and David Bowie. The female bit is blank – my memory is only full of girls I did not want to be or never imagined I could be.

Since then, we pretty much have a roll-call of politically correct heroines, but still have to go some way back to find tough, independent women, from Linda Hamilton in Terminator to Sigourney Weaver in Alien, or Tarantino's fantasy of Uma Thurman in Kill Bill. Japanese cinema has produced some magnificent female characters, and, of course, we rewrite the "final girl" of the horror genre: in which, after several women have been raped/killed/tortured, the final girl turns the table and survives.

Lately though, for teenage girls, we have had Twilight's mopey and passive Bella Swan. Buffy the Vampire Slayer is long gone, so to see Katniss (more akin to Neo in The Matrix) as resilient and smart and reluctantly becoming a symbol of a revolution is quite something. Guys fall in love with her but she really has better things to do: the uprising. Unlike Russell Brand's fluffier talk of revolution, the movies do not shy away from the violence and executions that accompany the suppression of dissent, with the great Donald Sutherland's watery eyes conveying pure evil as the president.

Sure, Katniss is an idealised fantasy anti-authoriatarian heroine. She is also confused, stubborn and vulnerable. What she isn't is either "girly" or interested in riches. She makes her bow and arrows to bring down the system. Nothing is said about gender. She is taller than one of her partners and it's her physical and mental prowess that we root for.
