Quotations add emphasis to ideas, so A is out. If quotations add emphasis to ideas then they also add strong support to claims therefore C is out. Quotations add credibility to writing as well so D is out. Therefore B is the right answer, you would not include direct quotations in a story to add length to a  boring story.

Is this sentece punctauted correctly? i came home late; therefore, i didnt see aunt matildia
Darina [25.2K]
No, the sentence given:
_________________________
"<span>i came home late; therefore, i didnt see aunt matildia" — is NOT punctuated correctly.
____________________________________________
The word: "didnt" should be replaced with: "didn't" (note the added "apostrophe")—or rewritten as two word: "did not". 

Furthermore, there should be a "period" at the end of the sentence.
___________________________
As far as other grammar errors are concerned, the second instance of the use of the personal pronoun, "I"—is incorrectly written in the lower case: "i"—and should be replaced with the capital letter, "I". Furthermore, "</span>aunt matildia" should be rewritten with a capital letter "A" replacing the word: "aunt" [the word: "aunt" should be changed to "Aunt"], and the name: "matildia" should be rewritten with a capital "M" replacing the name: "matildia" [the name "matildia" should be replaced with "Matildia"].  Also, if "Aunt Matildia" is, in fact, really spelled that way, than the spelling of the name should be retained.  On the other hand, if the aunt's name is actually spelled: "Mathilda"—or some variant, then the proper spelling should be used—and the first letter should be capitalized.

How is the noun clause used in the sentence?
Klio2033 [76]
This is D, 'direct object'. Because you can ask the question used for direct objects - what- (I don't know - what? - why I said that).

Murljashka [212]

The correct answer is C.

By adding words relating to sight, like "see", "view" and "gaze", the author can create a more vivid symbolism of what the sense of sight means in this passage.

When it talks about putting out both of the listener's eyes, Jonathan Swift could add details including this type of words to add to the imagery of sight.
