Explanation:

Nick said it because of his previous experiences which were not so easy to handle and that have transformed his thoughts so much that he considered that his future would be same as his past. He even didnt remember his birthday, indicating that his mind is well occupied by the menacing experiences and thoughts. Since he has turned thirty so now people think its time to settle but for Nick its still a road of struggle ahead of him

Which sentence is written in second-person point of view?
vodka [1.7K]

Answer: The sentence that is written in second-person point of view is D. Wherever you go, there you are.

Explanation: <u>The second-person point of view is the "you" perspective. </u>Unlike the first person point of view,<u> it is used to refer to a person that is not the speaker</u>. Moreover,<u> the second-person point of view can be easily identified due to the use of second-person pronouns</u>, such as "you", "your" and "yourself". D) is the only one that includes the second-person pronoun "you"; therefore, this option is the one that represents the second-person point of view. In contrast, A) and B) are written in third-person point of view and C) in first-person point of view.

What is one of the best ways to improve sentence flow in an essay?
VladimirAG [237]
The answer is:  [A]:
_________________________________________________
 "<span>combine related sentences with transitional words" .
_________________________________________________
Note:
_____________________________________________________
Choice [B]:  "</span><span>begin all sentences in the same way" ; is incorrect.  To the contrary, beginning all sentence in the same way is NOT recommended and would worsen sentence flow in an essay.  It is recommended that one NOT begin ALL sentences in the same way but rather to vary sentences and use supporting detail.
____________________________________________________
Choice [C]:  "make sentences a similar length" ; is incorrect.  To the contrary, sentence VARIETY is encouraged. 
____________________________________________________
Choice [D]:  "write only complex sentences" ; is incorrect.  As mentioned directly above, sentence VARIETY is encouraged.  Furthermore, writing only complex sentences would like confuse or distract the reader and make it difficult to comprehend what is written.
_____________________________________________________
Choice [A]:  "combine related sentences with transitional words" ; is a great way to improve sentence flow in an essay (if done correctly); and keeps the reader engaged — and helps organize the essay, as well.
_____________________________________________________
Thus, "Answer choice: [A]:  "combine related sentences with transitional words" ; is clearly the best answer — and the correct answer!
