Answer:

C. The weather is nice today rainy, wet and cold tomorrow.

Explanation:

Run-on sentences are those types of sentences where two or more independent clauses or sentences are joined in one sentence improperly. So, instead of keeping them in separate sentences, they are joined in one sentence but without the use of an appropriate conjunction.

In the given sentences, the one with a run-on sentence is option C. This is because sentence C contains two independent clauses <u>"the weather is nice today"</u> and <u>"rainy, wet and cold tomorrow"</u>. And when they are joined together, no appropriate or proper conjunction is used to make them into one sentence.

Sentence A is wrong as it contains just one independent clause.

Sentence B is wrong as it correctly uses "and" to join the two independent clauses.

Sentence D is wrong as it is just a single independent clause.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

What was peculiar about the woman he saw in the beginning of this time travel in The Time Machine?
givi [52]

The peculiar thing about the woman the Time Traveller saw in the beginning of this time travel is that she shot across the room "like a rocket."

<h3>The woman in "The Time Machine"</h3>

In the novel "The Time Machine," the Time Traveller begins his journey through time using a machine he has invented. When he starts the machine, he sees a woman, Mrs. Watchett, come into the room and walk across it. She does not seem to notice him.

However, from the Time Traveller's perspective, the woman seems to shoot across the room "like a rocket." That is because everything around him seems to speed up as the machine takes him through time.

With the information above in mind, we can select option C as the correct answer. The woman shot across the room "like a rocket."

Which description matches the poetic form iambic pentameter?
Zigmanuir [339]
By definition, 'Iamb' refers to the sequence of unstressed and stressed syllables, and 'pentameter' means that there are ten syllables since penta means five. An iamb is a metrical foot that consists of an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable. Therefore, the answer for this would be option A. <span>ten syllables divided into pairs of unstressed and stressed syllables. Hope this helps.</span>
