The correct answer is the third option which is Dr. W. Wharton explains, “Zeus was the king of the gods, ruler of sky, weather, law, and fate.” Direct quotations are the exact words of someone being used in a writing. Direct quotations makes your writing more interesting.

Dr. W. Wharton explains, “Zeus was the king of the gods, ruler of sky, weather, law, and fate.”

A direct quotation is exactly what someone said. A direct quotation must be written character for character, so any misspellings or grammatical errors must be included. Also, direct quotations need to begin and end with quotation marks so that it is clear where the person's original words begin and end. Without these quotation marks and a citation clarifying where the direct quotation originated, the user of the quotation is plagiarizing.

1.Van Gogh’s paintings /be /almost /expensive /the work of Picasso.
Cloud [144]

Let's write complete sentences using the given words:

1. Van Gogh's paintings are almost as expensive as the work of Picasso.

2. We did not know the Recycled Orchestra until we watched the video online yesterday.

For the first sentence, we can see that the purpose is to compare the work of two painters, Van Gogh and Picasso. That is why we use the structure "as ... as". We must place the adjective "expensive" in the middle: "almost as expensive as".

For the second sentence, we do not need to add anything. However, because of the word "yesterday", we know the sentence refers to something that happened in the past. Thus, we use the Simple Past tense for the verbs: not know - did not know; watch - watched.

In conclusion, all we need to do is read the words to grasp what the purpose of each sentence is and then add or change whatever is necessary to form a complete sentence.

This is wroth 40 points.
rjkz [21]
No! Living there would be a nightmare for me, I'm what you would call "mixed." In the book you're reading the towns folk believe in segregation and punish those unjustly because of the color of their skin. It's also a very poor part of Alabama based on the description so schools would be awful, neighborhoods might be riddled with crime, and community resources would be very limited or non-existent (community centers, parks, hospitals, etc). 

As for the second half, it was absolutely cruel. The parents should have kept a better eye on their children and reprimanded them for being so inconsiderate. They should have also educated them on letting other people just be since we're all different, with our own challenges.
