on violent video games violates free speech."

a. Emilio’s claim does not completely address the prompt.
b. Emilio’s claim is not argumentative because it does not take a position.
c. Emilio’s claim is based more on emotion than on reasoning.

Answer: A) Emilio’s claim does not completely address the prompt.

Explanation: an argument or claim is a statement assertion that something is true. A counterclaim is a statement or an idea that refutes the claim. An argumentative essay is a type of essay that presents arguments about both sides of an issue (claims and counterclaims). From the given options, the one that best descirbes Emilio's claim, is the corresponding to option A, Emilion does not completely address the prompt, because the theme is about the warning labels on violent video games and whether or not they violate free speech, and Emilio only says something about violent video games but not about the labels.

This question is incomplete. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

In this exercise, note what noun or pronoun in the second sentence either repeats or refers to a noun in the first sentence. Then turn the second sentence into an adjective clause beginning with who or whom and use it to modify the noun in the first sentence.

EXAMPLE: <u> Baxte</u>r had no plans for celebrating his 21st birthday.

<u>He</u> had a tall, muscular body and dark curly hair.

SOLUTION:   Baxter, who had a tall muscular body and dark curly hair, had no plans for celebrating his 21st birthday.

1.   So Baxter decided to let his best friend <u>Max</u> fix him up with a blind date.

     <u>Max</u> had a taste for long-legged, romantic women.

2.   <u>Max</u> spent a great deal of time calling 976 "party line" numbers.

     Bax had known <u>him</u> for 15 years.

3.   While talking on the line about a week before, Max had spoken with a young <u>woman</u>.

     He thought <u>she</u> would be the ideal date for Baxter.

4.   The <u>woman</u> said that she would be happy to meet <u>Baxter</u>.

     The <u>woman</u> referred to herself as Cinderella.

     The woman called <u>him</u> her Prince Charming.

5.   So Max arranged for <u>Bax</u> to meet Cinderella the following Wednesday.

     <u>Bax</u> was incredibly nervous.

6.   Max drove <u>Bax</u> to the meeting place, a local Denny's.

     Bax did not have a car.

7.   Max literally had to shove Bax into the restaurant.

     Three 75-year-old ladies roaming around the parking lot pinched Bax.

8.   Bax finally sat down on the yellow vinyl couch near the door.

     Bax had been twisting his burgundy bow tie for hours.

9.   Baxter grew impatient after watching nine single women walk in.

     The women caused his heart to palpitate.

10. Finally, his Cinderella wiggled through the door.

     <u>Cinderella</u> sent his senses roaring with her purple leather mini-dress.

Answer:

1.  So Baxter decided to let his best friend Max, who had a taste for long-legged, romantic women, fix him up with a blind date.

2.  Max, whom Bax had known for 15 years, spent a great deal of time calling 976 “party line” numbers.

 3.  While talking on the line about a week before, Max had spoken with a young woman, whom he thought would be the ideal date for Baxter.

4.  The woman, who referred to herself as Cinderella, said that she would be happy to meet Baxter, whom the woman called her Prince Charming.

5.  So Max arranged for Bax, who was incredibly nervous, to meet Cinderella the following Wednesday.

6.  Max drove Bax, who did not have a car, to the meeting place, a local Denny’s.

7.  Max literally had to shovel Bax, whom three 75-year-old ladies roaming around the parking lot pinched, into the restaurant.

8.  Bax, who had been twisting his burgundy bow tie for hours, sat down on the yellow vinyl couch near the door.

9.  Baxter grew impatient after watching nine single women, who caused his heart to palpitate, walk in.

10. Finally, his Cinderella, who sent his senses roaring with her purple leather mini-dress, wiggled through the door.

Explanation:

<u>A dependent adjective clause is a group of words containing a subject and a verb. It functions in a similar way to adjectives, offering further information about something that was mentioned in another sentence. Adjective clauses are often introduced by relative pronouns such as who, whom, which, or that.</u>

<u>Both "who" and "whom" can only be used to refer to people. But it is important to notice that "who" functions as a subject, while "whom" functions as the object of a verb or preposition. Let's take a look at two of the answers for comparison:</u>

1.  So Baxter decided to let his best friend Max, who had a taste for long-legged, romantic women, fix him up with a blind date. - "Who" refers to Max. Max had a taste for long-legged women. "Who" is the subject.

2.  Max, whom Bax had known for 15 years, spent a great deal of time calling 976 “party line” numbers.  - "Whom" refers to Max. But the subject is Bax. Bax had known Max for 15 years. "Whom" is the object.

With torn and bleeding hearts we smile - "we wear the mask"
azamat
The irony is that they are smiling with “torn and bleeding hearts”.
The idea it emphasizes is that they are smiling to hide their pain.
The overall message revealed by the irony is that they are in considerable emotional turmoil and faking happiness to mask their distress.
