I would say the correct answer is <span>c. greatly distressed. These lines describe desperate attempts to live a normal life, to reinvent its meaning, to try to enjoy it once again and recreate some sense within the terrible predicament. This is not optimism - it's a desperate (and vain) attempt to reach for some optimism. It is not depression either - a depressed person doesn't even try.</span>

Which statement is true about banks and the money supply?
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

A bank increases money supply giving away loans

Explanation:

A bank will increase their money supply when they offer a loan to it's customers. This is because the bank will charge a fee, called an interest when the borrower  returns the money. The bank may have preset installments on which the borrower may pay back with corresponding interest rates.

Typically, the lower the interest rates the longer the period for returning the money is. This is more attractive to the borrower since paying back smaller amounts is manageable with lower fees. This method, however, collects more money in the end in favor of the bank.

By making more loans available the bank is able to make more money.

How do you combine these 2 sentences by subordinating the 2nd sentence. The St. Louis Cardinals have a rich history of success.
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

The St. Louis Cardinals have a rich history of success, although their offense this year was awful.

Explanation:

The two sentences are expressing contrasting ideas. The first sentence offers a type of compliment to the St. Louis Cardinals. If they have a rich history of success, however, we would not expect the criticism that comes in the second sentence. We are surprised to hear that their offense was awful this year.

<u>To help express such contrast and, at the same time, make the second sentence a subordinate clause, we should choose an appropriate subordinating conjunction. The conjunctions that can help us do that are "though", "even though", and "although", among others. Therefore:</u>

The St. Louis Cardinals have a rich history of success, although their offense this year was awful.

NOTE: We may be tempted to use "but" instead of "although". We need to keep in mind that "but" is a coordinating conjunction, not a subordinating one. That is why it cannot be used here.
