Answer:

Explanation: The letter of the law versus the spirit of the law is an idiomatic antithesis. When one obeys the letter of the law but not the spirit, one is obeying the literal interpretation of the words (the "letter") of the law, but not necessarily the intent of those who wrote the law.

Massachusetts,

USA.

7th July, 2020

Dear Sister,

It is really a long time that I received a letter from you, and I am very happy to write to you on this occasion. How are you and the family at large? My regards to everyone.

The last time we discussed, you advised that I further my studies to a postgraduate level in engineering and I promised I was not going to disappoint you. Not long after we spoke, I applied to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and I was offered admission due to my solid first degree academic records. Despite the enormous challenges that accompanied my stay in MIT, i graduated with a distinction in aerospace engineering, the best in the department.

Last year, I enrolled for a Phd programme in the same university and I have been engaging in a lot of researches on aerospace. All things being equal, I have two more years to complete this programme and begin my career as an academic. I am very grateful for the continual love I receive from you as a sibling, it is overwhelming. I await a reply from you, bye for now.

Write three sentences: one that uses conjunctive adverbs, one that uses subordinating adverbs, and one that uses correlatives.

-Dominant- [34]

Answer: 1. Dogs are affectionate pets; on the other hand, cats are not very loving; however, owning a cat does have other advantages.

2. Although we left our house an hour before the time of the show, we did not arrive on time because our car broke down.

3. Neither Sarah nor her brother will go to the party tomorrow night, not because they will attend another party, but because they are out of town.

Explanation: A conjunctive adverb is a type of adverb used to connect an independent clause to another independent clause. In the first sentence ("Dogs are affectionate pets; on the other hand, cats are not very loving; however, owning a cat does have other advantages"), there are two conjunctive adverbs: "on the other hand" and "however". Both of them show contrast. Furthermore, a subordinating adverb or conjunction is a word used to connect an independent clause to a dependent clause. In "Although we left our house an hour before the time of the show, we did not arrive on time because our car broke down", "although" and "before" are subordinating conjunctions. "Although" indicates concession, while "before" makes reference to a relationship of time. Finally, correlative conjunctions are conjunctions that come in pairs and connect one element to another. In the third sentence ("Neither Sarah nor her brother will go to the party tomorrow night"), "neither... nor" and "not...but" are correlative conjunctions.
