Answer:
Jacinda went to Comic Con in hopes of meeting all her favorite heroes: Dr. Who, The Green Arrow, The Black Canary, and Supergirl.
Explanation:
A colon (:) is used to introduce or announce a phrase, quotation, or even list a noun or a number of elements. In other words, a colon is used to separate two independent clauses where the second explains the first.
In the given sentence, the correct usage of the colon is in sentence 4. This is because the colon is used to list the "favorite heroes" of Jacinda. And to list the four heroes, the colon introduces and lists them, with a period in between.
Thus, the correct answer is
<u><em>Jacinda went to Comic-Con in hopes of meeting all her favorite heroes: Dr. Who, The Green Arrow, The Black Canary, and Supergirl.</em></u>

Answer:
The effect of this scene is to provoke drama and the conclusion of harmful consequences created by Abigail's actions.
Explanation:
The hanging scene of John Proctor and the scene of recitation of the 10 commandments is performed to add more drama to the film and provide a conclusion that shows the consequences of Abigail's actions. This is because during the recitation of the 10 commandments, the drama is added when Proctor does not recite the commandment which prohibits adultery. That's because that's the sin that Proctor exercised with Abigail. This shows arrempedimetno and remorse, which promotes the drama of the narrative.
The hanging scene, on the other hand, has the effect of resolution and conclusion, makes the viewer realize how disastrous Abigail's actions were and led John to a violent and agonized death.
Answer:
A. Emerson repeats the word consistency to emphasize his disapproval of compliant thinking.
Explanation:
In the book, 'Self Reliance', by Ralph Waldo Emerson, the author talked about people who wanted to be consistent in their actions. This consistency stems from the fact that they wanted to always please people who know them by certain actions or ways of life in the past. Since they do not want to be seen in a different light, they fall back to a consistent lifestyle in order to be consistent from others perspective.
Emerson condemned such compliant thinking because he was an advocate of people not being limited in their thinking. People, he believed should be able to explore and reason extensively. They should also learn from their mistakes at their own pace, not conforming to the ideas or dictates of others.
