Answer:
B. The meeting was only supposed to be for an hour; however, it ran for nearly 3 hours.
Explanation:
A semicolon is most commonly used to link (in a single sentence) two independent clauses that are closely related in thought. When a semicolon is used to join two or more ideas (parts) in a sentence, those ideas are then given equal position or rank. Use the semicolon if you have two independent clauses <em>connected without a conjunction</em>. Also use the semicolon when you already have commas within a sentence for smaller separations, and you need the semicolon to show bigger separations.
This phrase is in reference to how Atticus dealt with Mayella on the stand during Tom Robinson's trial. Mayella testified that Tom Robinson raped her and beat her up. During his questioning, Atticus found holes in Mayella's story. He got her confused and made her sound as though she wasn't sure about the details or that she wasn't as strong of a person as she'd like to be. This made it difficult for Mayella to twist the truth to make Tom Robinson seem guilty so she stopped talking. She gave some testimony and then quit answering questions all together. Unfortunately, even though Atticus's questioning of Mayella revealed some significant inconsistencies and improbabilities the jury still convicted Tom Robinson because of his race.
Answer:
The correct answer is D.
Working against the natural tendencies of the environment leads to long-term consequences.
Explanation:
In the first paragraph, the theme of green literature is evidenced when the writer references the damage to New York City's topography due to the need to build deep underground subways that double as bomb shelters.
In the second passage, the imagery used by the writer gives a clearer picture of the damage that was done to the environment.
In the first passage, the potential hazard arises because sewer lines have to be pumped uphill with subways below them.
If there is an earthquake, for instance, the entire structure comes crashing down.
In the second passage, the damage was already done, leaving Norwegians with the problem of how to create soils upon which plant fauna could thrive. Had they, managed the tree population by planting more than they were cutting, they probably would have avoided the "<em>green problem".</em>
