Let's review what are parentheses for: <span>Parentheses, always used in pairs, are used to to provide additional information. What is inside parentheses is not the most relevant information. Inside the parentheses you can have a single word, a fragment, or multiple complete sentences.
</span><span>
This being said, the right answer is:
B. Parentheses may be used to emphasize a counter argument.

I hope this helps.

What characteristics best describe a farce?
Alinara [238K]

A farce is a type of play that is actually quite similar to the comedy movies of today.  There is little seriousness within a farce, and it is often characterized by brash humor or slapstick humor.   The situational settings within a farce are so outlandish that they could safely be understood to probably never happen in the real world.

Is the pronoun in the sentence reflexive, intensive, both, or neither? Jason finished the remodeling himself
EleoNora [17]
The pronoun <em>himself </em>is an intensive pronoun only, it is not reflexive.
Intensive pronouns are used to place emphasis on the subject of a sentence. Here, we want to emphasize that Jason did the whole work on his own. You can easily deduce whether a pronoun is intensive or reflexive if you remove it from the sentence - if the sentence still makes sense, then the pronoun is intensive because they are not essential in sentences. If the sentence no longer makes sense, it means that the pronoun is reflexive.
Here, if you take out the pronoun, the sentence will go like this:
Jason finished the remodeling.
As you can see, the sentence still makes perfect sense, which is why the pronoun is intensive.
