Answer: Terms that describe the underlined portion of the sentence ("who is running for mayor") are: <u>nonrestrictive</u> and<u> clause.</u>

Explanation:

  • A clause is a grammar unit that, unlike a phrase, contains a verb and a subject. It is different from a sentence in that it does not convey a complete thought and does not make sense on its own. In this case, "who is running for mayor" is a<u> </u><u>relative clause. </u>

*An appositive is <u>a noun/noun phrase</u> which identifies another element in a sentence (typically another noun phrase). This is not the case here, as this construction is a relative clause and not a noun phrase.

  • A nonrestrictive clause, also known as a nonessential clause, is a clause which provides details that are not essential for a sentence to make sense. In other words, the meaning of the sentence would remain the same without this clause - <em>Sayeed Johnson will be speaking at the city library tonight. </em>

What most clearly distinguishes this passage as an example of the Theater of
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

Although the passage was not given, I would like to make a guess.

Explanation:

C. The character's actions are repetitive and circular.

Theatre of the Absurd took it's features from Modern Period tenets. Like Stream of Consciousness, Nihilism, Meaningless, Existentialism, Individualism and the likes. In such plays, nothing of significance is happening. It's monotonous, the same thing happening over and over again with no clear indication of it being over anytime soon. Human's existence lacks meaning and purpose, so there's nothing of note to be done.

For instance, in "Waiting for Godot" by Beckett, the cast were merely standing under a tree, waiting for someone they don't even know. They are prepared to wait there for the rest of their lives for someone they had no idea of his appearance.

"The Sea of Faith

Was once, too, at the full, and round earth's shore...But now I only hear

Its melancholy, long, withdrawing roar,

Retreating, to the breath

Of the night-wind, down the vast edges drear

And naked shingles of the world." lines 1-11.
