Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Hi! I am afraid that your question is incomplete because you forgot to mention which book are you talking about. But, I did a little research on the Internet and I think I am able to answer it correctly.

From the options given, the one that best analyzes how Shaw draws upon the work of the Roman poet, Ovid, is A: Like Ovid's main character, Shaw's main character portrays a level of disdain for women.

Explanation:

First, let's say that we are talking about Pygmalion, by George Bernard Shaw, a play published in 1913. Pygmalion derives its name from the famous story in Ovid's Metamorphoses, in which Pygmalion feels disgusted by the loose and shameful lives of the women of his era. Due to this feeling, he decides to live alone and unmarried.

In this case, like Pygmalion (the main character from Metamorphoses), the main character feels disgusted by them -women-, that is why the correct answer is A.

Robinson got up and with great effort walked to the spring, and there he cooled his burning feet and gathered some large leaves,

nignag [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is the best summary because the main activities done by Robinson were the making of the shoes and of the umbrella. These two objects were made to protect him from the elements, and while they were indeed made in the cave, this was only the place where he happened to be staying.

C does not make sense because it doesn't mention the umbrella or the hat; D is not the best option because it only talks about the Sun and the cave, and A is not ideal because it only talks about his feet and not the Sun.

Which sentence does not contain any errors in comma usage? A. His new shoes look like big, brown torpedoes. B. This is the best,

Makovka662 [10]

Ok, it can't be C because you never place a comma in front of the adjective which is describing the noun, unless their is 3+ descriptive words.

Commas never are used when there is an 'and' set in front of it. Commas generally mean 'and'. So therefore don't need to be used again, so we can eliminate B.

Not D, because it Does not contain a comma.

A is the only correct option.

Hope I helped. :) Thanks for using Brainly! :D
