D. Sir Lancelot rides by on his horse.
Lady Shalott was a lady living all alone in a tower near Camelot. She's cursed and she didn't know what the curse was. She must only weave images on her loom reflected from her mirror the busy life of the people in Camelot. But she didn't look directly down there.
Until one day, she saw Sir Lancelot riding by on his horse down to Camelot. She was fascinated by the knight's face, so she stopped weaving and looked directly down at Camelot to where he was heading. Because of this incident, the mirror cracked from one side to the other, bringing about the curse.
The main cause is the appearance of Sir Lancelot to the lady's eyes because that causes her to stop weaving and to look directly down Camelot which therefore causes the mirror to crack. The cracking of the mirror is only a sign that the curse has taken effect not the cause.
The correct answer is 1: Illustration-example.
Illustrations and examples are introduced by the transition phrases such as "for instance" and "for example". Some other linking words for giving examples are "to illustrate", "namely", and "such as". These linking words do not necessarily have to be at the beginning of the sentence.
Answer:
In addition
Explanation:
The phrase that would best fit the blank is <em>in addition</em>. It means the same as words <em>also, as well, </em>and <em>besides</em>. This means that Champ is on both the basketball and soccer teams.
<em>Therefore </em>and <em>consequently</em> can be used as synonyms, which means that they have the same meaning - <em>as a result. </em>The fact that Champ is on the soccer team is not the result of him being on the basketball team.
<em>In spite of</em> is used to show contrast. This would mean that Champ would be on the soccer team despite being on the basketball team. But, if we used this phrase, the sentence would be grammatically incorrect.
This is why option A is the correct one.
