QveST [7]

The theme developed in the story is about "Truth and Lies". •Story explores whether lying is sometimes justifiable. •Kevin tells

truth to Waldo that father helped with Latin homework and is punished for it –ironic, since particularly in strict Catholic school, lying would be considered a sin and truth something to be encouraged and rewarded instead of punished. •Kevin lies to father that Latin was fine and is rewarded by father feeling relieved because he “was a bit worried about it” and has not hurt father’s pride in academic ability nor made him feel guilty as might be if knew that Kevin had been caned for his wrong answers. • Kevin “laughed and slipped his hand into the warmth of his father’s overcoat pocket, deep to the elbow”. Story ends showing happiness and closeness of Kevin’s relationship with father intact, which would not be case if he had told truth; author inviting reader to decide whether lying sometimes justifiable, therefore.

What is the BEST way to combine the information in the two sentences below?
natulia [17]

The answer is A. Mercedes threw Andrea, Mercedes' best friend, a surprise party last night.  This choice uses an appositive ("Andrea, Mercedes' best friend,") to combine the two sentences.  An appositive is a phrase separated from the rest of the sentence by commas that describes something (in this case Andrea).


Choices B and C are incorrect because the uses of the words "but" and "when" to combine the sentences do not make logical sense.  Choice D is incorrect because it uses a comma to combine the sentences without a conjunction, creating a run-on sentence.


Hope this helps!
