Answer:

secondary source

Explanation:

An encyclopedia entry about the Battle of Gettysburg is considered a secondary source of information.

The Battle of Gettysburg was fought from July 1 to July 3, 1863, in and around the town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, by Union and Confederate forces during the American Civil War. The battle involved the largest number of casualties of the entire war and is often described as the war's turning point.

An encyclopedia is considered a secondary and even tertiary source. It is secondary because it does not include first-hand account of the (historical) events, and it is considered tertiary because it mostly quotes/cites other secondary sources such as journals, newspaper articles, books etc.

A primary source consists of only first-hand accounts of the experiences and events.

A secondary source consists of analyses, critical essays about first-hand accounts (primary sources).

Sav [38]

Answer: C. Day in, day out, on the road.

Explanation:

The sentence that expresses the idea of a routine and repetitiveness is sentence C. As explained in the question itself, in 1915, people lived mundane lives and for them, all the days were practically the same - they would wake up, have breakfast, go to work, return home, sleep, and wake up only to do the same as the previous day. Kafka wanted to include this aspect of society in his Metamorphosis as well, in order to make it as truthful as possible.

We saw three lion cubs using binoculars. correct the misplaced modifier. plzzzzzz helppppppp
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Using binoculars, we saw three lion cubs

Explanation:

A misplaced modifier occurs when a word or a phrase is incorrectly placed in a sentence that separates it from the word it modifies, making the sentence have a different meaning.

Therefore, correcting the misplaced modifier in the sentence "We saw three lion cubs using binoculars", we change it to "Using binoculars, we saw three lion cubs"

This is because, from the first sentence, it seems like the cubs were using binoculars, when in actual sense, it was the speaker that used binoculars to see the cubs.
