Which revision, if any, best shows that the rain was the reason that Monika was late?

English
1 answer:
mamaluj [8]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

C. Because it was raining heavily, Monika arrived at her doctor's appointment fifteen minutes late.

Explanation:

If we want to express a causal relation, or that one event is the cause and the other its consequence, we need to use causal or consequential dependent clauses.

Leaving this sentence unchanged or revising it to the answer D, the reader might accnowledge these two events (raining and Monica's tardiness) as two independent, unrelated events.

Answer B. suggests that Monica rained heavily which is, of course, completely illogical and is an example of a misplaced modifier.

Only answer C. provides correlation between these two events. Connector "because" suggests that the rain was the cause of Monica being late

Which of the following best describes Thoreau’s writing style?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

C) conversational

Explanation:

The best way to describe Thoreau's writing style is as conversational. Thoreau's writings can be considered a series of reflections. The author usually talks about the ideas that go through his mind, as well as the values that guide his actions. This reflective type of writing leads to a conversational style, where the writer talks to us as if we were having a conversation with him. Moreover, his tone is casual and informal.

Complete the text with the best conjunctive adverb.
Blababa [14]

Answer:

C) Incidentally

Explanation:

Personally I don't like any of these answer choices. However, this one makes the most sense in this context. The others would need a much different set-up earlier on in the passage. "Incidentally" does not require such a set up, which is why it is the only one that fits.
