The correct answer is D. There is no single topic sentence.
Explanation:
A topic sentence is a sentence that summarizes the main idea of a paragraph, this sentence is usually the first sentence in the paragraph and states what the paragraph is about. On the other hand, the paragraph presented here deals with multiple topics or concepts including the Earth's crust, the plates, the Earth's mantle, volcanoes, earthquakes, and mountain ranges, this means the paragraph is related to geography but explores multiple ideas that are not summarized in any of the sentences presented in the paragraph, neither at the beginning nor at the end of it. Thus, as there is no any sentence or phrase that states what the paragraph is about as a unit or summarizes all the ideas of the paragraph there is no a single topic sentence because this paragraph includes multiples ideas that might be difficult to summarize in only one topic sentence.
Although Hamlet has many positive traits, including intelligence and a strong sense of right and wrong, his indecision takes center stage as his most prominent and, ultimately fatal flaw displays the most effective use of the italicized transition word.
A. Although Hamlet has many positive traits, including intelligence and a strong sense of right and wrong, his indecision takes center stage as his most prominent and, ultimately fatal, flaw.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The major tragic flaw of the play Hamlet is protagonist's procastination. It was not his inability or Queen Gertrude or Ophellia but Hamlet's own thought to move his work because of the timing and situation but infact his own moral values and lack of strong revenge. For Hamlet, the unfortunate blemish isn't a character defect, for example, an excess of pride, aspiration, or desire. Rather, it is the choice he makes to act as per the apparition's solicitation and murder Claudius.
Since the <em>Romantic </em>literature had set as its goal the "victory" or predominance of Man over Nature, its language tended to be somewhat triumphalistic (some would say hyperbolic) when it was about how human beings were deployed. Romanticism introduced an long-term project at a time when important scientific milestones were achieved, and also when most of modern nations and States were being founded, thus taking a voice which was very proud of national virtues, some of them legendary, part of folklore or popular culture (but belonging to a national heritage rather than coming from a more traditional stem). Neoclassicist literature was a new take on the Greek-Roman Classics, intending to bring them back into the mainstream and most of the times not fulfilling the feat. Based on this, Neoclassicist language could be felt as overblown. In a way, Romanticism was a look into the future (let us think of <em>Frankenstein </em>a very experimental novel for its time) whereas Neoclasicism very much represented a reaction to such future.
This answer is A just so you know! ANSWER =A
Triumphantly is an adverb, so you would be looking for the verb that it modifies. I would choose the word “pressing.” Ask yourself, “how did he press down the alarm knob?” He pressed it triumphantly.
