Answer:
one can go without water for a day or two but can survive without air only for a few minutes
Explanation:
The correct answer is "Group II. When the root is a full word except for a final e, the forms usually are spelled with -able"
Explanation:
The passage presented in the question explains the basic rules for adding the suffix "-able" to a root word or basic unit that forms words, for doing this, there are eight different rules that define the correct way to add this suffix mainly based on the features of a word. In the case of the word "desire" this word is a root by itself which means it cannot be reduced to smaller particles and this word ends in "-e", also the correct form of adding the suffix "-able" is in the form "desirable" which means the final "e-" is omitted and the suffix is added. Therefore, this word belongs to the rule "Group II", because as desire words of this group are full words excerpt by the "-e" that need to be omitted to add the prefix.
The message of the poem Laura, written by Petrarch and translated by Morris Bishop is that of a love that can't be because of of the two implied in it is not free. Laura was the woman Petrarch fell in love with when he abandoned the idea of becoming a priest. Although he was very interested in her, she rejected him because she was already married.
Through Laura's lines a person that is considered an angel, and therefore will live forever, is unveiled before our eyes. She is described as the ideal woman, but she is also unreachable to the author. Laura is the love everyone deserves to find, but who only a few do.
