C. Some were afraid to do their job while others took bribes from fishermen.

<span>Within the excerpt we see that Neil Partington is noted as being the best fish patrolman.  This statement is made, then rationale is provided by the direct characterization of Neil Partington as being “neither dishonest nor cowardly.”  Because he was not cowardly, it can be assumed that he is brave in the line of duty.  Additionally, because he does not take bribes, it can be assumed that he does not take bribes, the nature of which is dishonest.  Thus, best response is “C. Some were afraid to do their job while others took bribes from fishermen.”</span>

What key information does ismene reveal in line 650 and how does creon respond? Why?
Delvig [45]

Answer:

Ismene reveals that she helped Antigona to entertain her brother. Upon hearing this, Creon states that he will condemn Antigone and Ismene to death.

Explanation:

Etéocles and Polinices are brothers and caused the death of the other in a battle. They are also brothers of Antigone and Ismene, who want the brothers to have a dignified funeral and burial. However, Creotes decrees that it is forbidden for Polinices to have a burial, or for any official funeral, but Eteocles is allowed to have a dignified burial. Antigona refuses to obey Creontes and decides that burying her Polynesic brother calls Ismene to do so, but Ismene refuses to participate.

Antigone is caught in the act, and Creon decides to call the two sisters to justify himself. At that moment, Ismene feels that she will not let her sister be punished alone and says that she helped her in the funeral of Polinices. Upon hearing this, Creon states that the two are sentenced to death.

Which sentence is not relevant to the paragraph and should be deleted?
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

The reason is option D or "music has been proven to calm animals and to make humans smarter." That is because the entire paragraph was about the science to why humans enjoy music so much. Earlier sentences suggested MRI scans, monitoring brain activity, and people being willing to spend more on music based on their brain activity. The final sentence was information about how music calms animals when the entire paragraph was about the science to why humans enjoy music which is why that is your answer.

Hope this helps.
