English

Paul [167]3 years ago

The correct answers are C. Jessica's supplies for the trip included these items: a hairbrush, moisturizer, a toothbrush, and four bottles of mineral water and D. Annette left her hometown with just one goal in mind: to see the world and experience different cultures.

Explanation:

In grammar, the colon (:) is used either to introduce a set of items that belong to a list or to introduce an explanation or statement that is equivalent to one element of the first statement. Also, the colon should not be used to divide essential elements of sentences such as subject, verb, and object. This means, from the options given only options C and D show the correct use of the colon.

In the case of option C, this occurs as the colon introduces a set of items that belong to a list "a hairbrush, moisturizer, a toothbrush, and four bottles of mineral water" and explain Jessica's supplies and in the second sentence this occurs as the colon introduces an explanation that explains the section "one goal in mind" by stating this was "o see the world and experience different cultures".

Answer:

Nick Carraway, Tom Buchanan, Daisy Buchanan, and Jay Gatsby

Explanation:

Nick Carraway

The novel's narrator, Nick is a young man from Minnesota who, after being educated at Yale and fighting in World War I, goes to New York City to learn the bond business. Honest, tolerant, and inclined to reserve judgment, Nick often serves as a confidant for those with troubling secrets.

Tom Buchanan

Powerfully built and hailing from a socially solid old family, Tom is an arrogant, hypocritical bully. His social attitudes are laced with racism and sexism, and he never even considers trying to live up to the moral standard he demands from those around him.

jay gatsby

Gatsby is a dreamer, constantly envisioning a better future for himself and focusing on what is possible, rather than what is practical. Like many Intuitive personalities, he often seems somewhat distracted or detached from what's happening around him.
