Answer:

The best option is C) The disease has made the man insane, but he does not know it.

Explanation:

The last option simply puts the two independent clauses together with no punctuation or conjunctions whatsoever. It can, thus, be eliminated. The other options are not appropriate because they change the meaning of the original sentences. The best option is definitely the third one. It uses punctuation - a comma - and a coordinating conjunction - but - to put together two independent sentences. The conjunction "but" indicates contrast, which lies in the fact that the man does not know the disease has made him mad.

Therefore:

(6) The disease has made the man insane. + (7) He does not know it. = The disease has made the man insane, but he does not know it.

Arrange the steps for writing an essat in the correct order , from first to last
adoni [48]

c. decide on a topic for the essay

a. create an outline for the essay

e. write a draft of the essay

d. revise and rewrite the draft of the essay

b. skim and edit the essay for surface errors


In order for you to begin any piece of writing or planning for your essay, you first need to know what you're writing about so deciding on a topic is first. Second, it is helpful to have a general outline or road map for your essay. This helps you to stay on topic with your paragraphs as well as point out any immediate problems with organizational structure. The next is to write a rough draft for the essay. Once you have the draft and know exactly how it all goes together, you can go back and revise for major errors and better language. It's not worth the time to check for minor errors if you end up making major revisions at this stage. Once all of the major revisions are completed, then it's important to spell and grammar check the essay for things that may have been overlooked.

Based on the dictionary entry, what is the meaning of the word struck in this sentence? The earthquake that struck California me
Gelneren [198K]
The correct answer is the second option - <span>to occur unexpectedly and have destructive or harmful effects.
</span>Here, the word struck is just a past form of the verb to strike, meaning to happen unexpectedly and have dire consequences, like an earthquake can hit California, in this case. The final definition is a noun, and does not fit in the context of the original sentence.
