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

According to Varma, what is the first thing Rakesh does upon seeing his excellent exam results?
Nataly_w [17]

Answer :

According to Varma, the first thing that Rakesh did upon seeing his excellent exam results was to bow down and touch his (his father's) feet.

The following lines from the short story "A Devoted Son" by Anita Desai give the answer to the question "To everyone who came to him to say “Mubarak, Varmaji, your son has brought you glory,” the father said, “Yes, and do you know what is the first thing he did when he saw the results this morning? He came and touched my feet. He bowed down and touched my feet.” This moved many of the women in the crowd so much that they were seen to raise the ends of their saris and dab at their tears while the men reached out for the betel-leaves and sweetmeats that were offered around on trays and shook their heads in wonder and approval of such exemplary filial behavior. “One does not often see such behavior in sons any more,” they all agreed, a little enviously perhaps."
