Answer:

C). It is always important to stress reader benefits in the body of your cover letter; describe your strong points in relation to the needs of the employer.

Explanation:

Punctuation is crucial to enhance the readability and clarify the meaning of the text to the readers. It primarily functions to display the structural formation of a sentence which clarifies the meaning.

In the given question, the second sentence is most appropriately punctuated as it correctly employs semicolon(;) to link the two independent clauses('It...letter' and 'describe your...employer') which are firmly associated with each other in idea. Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.

Can you ever be too ambitious?<br> yes or no? explain why or why not
Phoenix [80]
Webster's dictionary defines ambition as: "<span>a strong desire to do or to achieve something, typically requiring determination and hard work." with that being said, there is not necessarily any way to have too much ambition. the most important though, it to have a purpose. Billy Sunday, a preacher from a time passed, once said, "More men fail through lack of purpose than lack of talent." he is saying that anyone can do anything, given that they put their mind to it. Philippians 4:13 states: "For i can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."</span>

I always get "The Primary Purpose of this passage is to?" wrong on Reading Comp. I'm guessing this is hurting my score as it seems like a simple questions and I always get it wrong. 

Any idea on how to nail this??? I started taking notes during the section and it helps. I know what the passage is about, but trying to stick it into one of those GMAT choices is difficult. Suggestions?

Main Idea/Primary Purpose Questions: 
Many people believe there is no difference between the main or central idea of the passage and the primary purpose of the author of the passage. This is simply not true. Let's take a look at the subtle but important difference between them: 
Main Idea 
The question might look something like this: 

"Which of the following best states the central idea of the passage?" 
"Which of the following most accurately states the main idea of the passage?" 
"Which of the following is the principal topic of the passage?" 
"The main topic of the passage is...." 

Primary Purpose 
The question might look like this: 

"The primary purpose of this passage is to..." 
"The primary purpose of the passage as a whole is to..." 
"The primary focus of this passage is on which of the following?" 
"The main concern of the passage is to..." 
"In the passage, the author is primarily interested in...." 
"The passage is chiefly concerned with..."

Write a story on a hurricane you have experienced
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Okay so in September of 2017 Florida experienced hurricane Irma. It was a category 5 hurricane that caused massive damage. I will forever remember this because the hurricane struck on my birthday. We were without power for a few days, and I remember feeling so sorry for myself. But all in all, it was a great birthday for the circumstances. I realized how lucky i was because our house was still standing, and we did the best we could to celebrate my birthday.
