Answer:
B) I love the lights and sights of downtown Tokyo.
Explanation:
This option actually uses capitalization properly, because Tokyo is a specific place, and therefore should be capitalized. Whereas downtown isn't a specific location, and is just used to reference the part of Tokyo.
All other options are wrong becasue they are either not capitalizing known locations, such as New Jersey, or are capitalising generic words such as city.
Hope this helps :)
Please mark me as brainliest if you are able to. It would really mean a lot to me.
Answer:
C) Hard work and pride in one's work are more important than outward success.
Explanation:
In the given excerpt from "The Dancer's Dream," the narrator describes how Lily felt before auditioning in front of people. Moreover, the passage reveals her determination, her acceptance, and her realization of what's more important.
When Lily realized that <em>"her dream had already come true. She was a ballerina dancing on a stage . . . doing what she loved and the people she loved the most were there to see it"</em>, she knows she's achieved her goal no matter what the outcome of the audition may be. To her, being able to dance on a stage in front of her parents and Miss Emilie is the only thing important, worthy of every practice and long hours she'd spent.
This passage expresses the <u>central claim that hard work and pride in one's work matters more than outward success that measures one's efforts</u>. Thus, the correct answer is option C.
I would say "The storm caused a power failure, so Peter started the new generator."
Comment the correct answer.
