Answer:

The correct answer is 1. incomplete comparison.

Explanation:

In the example, there can certainly exist a logical relation between the two propositions (inquisitive students - make - better students), however, since there is not enough information, a logical relation between them cannot be properly constructed. If the comparison presented some sort of argument then it would be complete. For instance: "Inquisitive children, <em>since they are more curious and open to learning</em>, make better students". Without the argument, the idea seems more like an unsustained opinion, based on prejudice, than anything else.

Answer:

1. Incomplete comparison

Explanation:

A comparison is a consideration or estimate of the similarities or differences between two or more elements. In the sentence "better" is a comparative adverb, however, the sentence does not compare one element to another, which it's an indication that the other element is missing, the comparison in incomplete. Here is one example where the comparison is complete "Inquisitive children make better students than lazy students because the first group tends to be more eager to ask questions and solve problems."

Explanation:

                                                                          90 Aba Owerri Road,

                                                                          Umungasi,

                                                                          Aba.

                                                                          November 17, 2020.

Dear Chichi,

       I am so pleased to hear that you recently gained admission into Rockview High School. This achievement bears witness to the fact that you have been a hardworking student. Rockview High School is known to have the strictest selection process for admission of new students into highschool. I congratulate you once more on this achievement!

     My years as a student at Rockview High School were very rewarding. I can boldly say that Rockview High school teachers laid the foundation upon which I am now building my life. Rockview is a citadel of moral and academic formation where young teenagers are prepared to undertake diverse life endeavors.

    Chichi, every achievement in life comes with responsibilities. You have to take responsibility while in school. Remember that none of us will be there to guide you into the right choices but you have your conscience as your guide. Do not associate with people who do not uphold the system of values that you have learnt at home. Do not lower your moral standard in order to accommodate friends who think that mischief making is fun. Remember to hold up your head high even when you are left alone with your convictions. Always bear in mind the injunction of the Holy Bible; "Do not follow a multitude to do evil". Let this be your watchword.

     Lastly, remember that good grades have never fallen on anybody like ripe cherries from a tree. You have to work hard and stay focused. Remember that your final GPA is very important when you begin to seek admission into college after high school.

     A word is enough for the wise. Remember to stay safe always and obey all corona virus safety protocols while in school.

                                                                                              Yours Sincerely,

                                                                                              Jude

A Brother and Sister Relationship in The Glass Menagerie by Tennessee Williams

In the play, "The Glass Menagerie", the characters and relationships between them are very unique. Two unique characters that have a very strong relationship are the brother Tom, and his sister, Laura. Tom is a confused, young man who supports his sister. Laura, his sister, has very low-self esteem and does nothing but sulk around the house all day. Their mother Amanda, is absolutely a lunatic. She is obsessive and controlling to her children, because she wants them to live the life she wanted to live. While Tom works hard to support his family, and has a strong care for Laura, he feels trapped and confused.
