The correct answer is A. What he thought he saw in the upstairs window turned out to be a phantasm

Explanation:

A dictionary entry is the section of a dictionary that includes at least information about the type of word a word is, for example, noun, adjective or adverb and the denotative meaning of it or the meaning agreed by the speakers of a language. In this case, the dictionary entry presents the information about the word "phantasm" including its definition or denotative meaning "something that a person sees in his or her mind" and specifying this is a noun which means it describes an idea, place or thing.

Additionally to this, for determining whether a word is used correctly in a sentence it is important to consider both the type of word and the meaning of it. Considering this, the sentence that uses this word correctly is "What he thought he saw in the upstairs window turned out to be a phantasm", because in this sentence, the word "phantasm" is used as a noun which can be identified by the article "a" used only before noun and the definition "something that a person sees in his or her mind" fits with the context of the text, considering the image or thing the person of the sentence saw was only on his mind, which is exactly the definition presented in the dictionary entry.

Critics of informal language argue that it shows characters as unintelligent. Explain how this perspective is inaccurate.

nalin [4]

Answer:

this perspective is inaccurate because characters using informal language doesn’t mean that they’re unintelligent.

Explanation:

it’s the same thing for formal language. there’s a time and place for both informal and formal language. if a bunch of characters are friends and hanging out, then they’d want to use informal language with each other. informal language can also be more realistic to use for characters. for example if all characters in a book are in high school, it would be really unrealistic to have all of them use formal language and walking around talking like they're in a job interview.

those critics are assuming that informal language = unintelligent characters when that is just not true. characters can be intelligent and still use informal language because that’s normal for them or they’re in a place with people where using informal language is better.

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer: appositive

Explanation:

An appositive is a noun phrase whereby one noun or in some other cases a pronoun is used, then there'll be another word that'll be used to clarify the noun or pronoun.

In thus case, the noun is "Dr. Benton Jones" while "a winner of the Nobel Prize for his chemistry theories" is clarifying Dr Benton Jones.

Therefore, this is an example of appositive.
