The answers are A and B.  

<span>When Cullen speaks of planting while others reap, and standing "abject and mute," he is speaking about the racial injustices present in American society. As these injustices have changed over time, the American identity has also shifted. Those changes are, in turn, reflected in American literature. </span>

Of the options given, the correct answer for the first sentence would be option A: "racial". And the correct answer for the second sentence would be option B: "identity". The completed sentences would be:

He is speaking about the <em>racial </em>injustices present in American society. As these injustices have changed over time, the American <em>identity </em>has also shifted. Those changes are, in turn, reflected in American literature.

The reason "racial! is the first answer is because in the excerpt, the author speaks of injustices that happened to people because of the color of their skin, they were not casual or internal only, therefore options B and C are incorrect.

And the reason "identity" is the second answer is because these injustices maid the American society change its way of thinking and acting, therefore, changing its identity, not merely their responses or their focus.

Copacabana beach in Rio de Janeiro is one of the most popular beaches in the world.P(t) models the number of people at the beach
S_A_V [24]

P(t) is a function time, it is a dependent function which needs the value of t to be completed.

P(t) is the number of people at the beach at the beach in a t number of hours past midnight. t is a undefined and independent variable.

So P(10) = N means:

t = 10 ; 10 hours past midnight

P(10) = Model of the number of people at the beach 10 hours after midnight.

The numerical resolution of P(10) is equal to N, so:

N = number of people at the beach 10 hours after midnight.

Read the excerpt. Because the endangered panthers living in the forests need large, connected territories to roam.
leonid [27]
The correct answer is D. The excerpt should be revised because it contains a dependent clause that leaves the writer's thought unfinished.

Because the endangered panthers in the forests need large, connected territories to roam.
This is a sentence fragment; sentences that begin with 'because' are typically sentence fragments, with a few exceptions (as you can see in the next sentence I wrote).

Because the sentence is grammatically incorrect, it needs to be revised. Therefore, the answer is either C or D. The only question is whether or not the sentence contains an independent clause or a dependent clause. An independent clause is a part of a sentence that can be a sentence on its own. For instance, in the sentence 'We should conserve nature, because the endangered panthers in the forests need large, connected territories to roam.', the independent clause is 'We should conserve nature' because it can stand on its own.

Because this excerpt is a fragment and therefore cannot stand on its own as a complete, grammatically correct sentence, it cannot be an independent clause. The correct answer is D, because the excerpt is a dependent clause and needs to be revised.

Hope this helps!
