B. "Dr. Miller," she asked, "what college did you attend?"
I believe the correct answer is: “…the two pilgrims successfully resist Flatterer, who tries to trap them with a net, and Atheist, who tries to convince them that the Celestial City does not exist.”
In this excerpt from “Pilgrim's Progress” (1678), a Christian allegory written by John Bunyan, specific characters that serve as an allegory for distractions that one must resist to live a life of faith are Flatterer and Atheist which try to divert tempt Christian and Hopeful from the proper path. Therefore, the quotation that best develops this idea is:
“…the two pilgrims successfully resist Flatterer, who tries to trap them with a net, and Atheist, who tries to convince them that the Celestial City does not exist.”
P.S. Note that if it wasn't plural, the main distraction would be Apollyon, a form of Satan, as the Satan was tempting Christ the most in the desert.
In the first question, the answer is - D. A - cannot be the correct answer as common nouns (such as - chair, computer, desk) don't have to be written in capital letters. And regarding B, proper nouns (such as John, Thames. America) always have to begin with a capital letter. C - is simply incorrect, using proper nouns, that is, names, isn't more polite than saying, for example, a wall.
Regarding the second question, the answer is - B. It is the only sentence in which the past simple tense of the verb "to bring" is used. The first example uses the present perfect tense (which isn't a past tense), C - present continuous, and D - future simple.
Answer:
Della thinks of her husband as if he were a king. Della cares about Jim very much and she thinks of Jim by cutting her hair and selling it for $20. And with the money she received from her "hair cut" she had bought Jim a silver chain for his grandfathers golden watch. At this time he was using a leather band. Della knew that his watch was very important to him, so she bought him the silver chain. Thus fore she wouldn't be considered self- centered. Hope this helps.
