Answer: A) it is not grammatically correct.
Explanation: From the given options, the one that represents what is wrong with the given sentence, is the corresponding to option A: it is not grammatically correct, it has two grammatical errors, the first one is that it should say "I am interested" because "interested" is the participle of the verb interest. The second error is that the pronoun "you" should be replaced for "your" because it is indicating belonging, so the correct sentence would be: I am interested in applying for the position of cashier at your business.
Answer:
d. “escaped,” “free,” “warmed,” and “relaxed”.
Explanation:
In the short story "The Story of an Hour" by Kate Chopin, we find Mrs. Mallard receiving the news about her husband's death. But contrary to normal expectations, she felt a sense of relief rather than a desperate mournful sensation. For her, it was like a release from some kind of invisible bondage that she had been under her husband.
The above provided passage shows rather a mood of relief from the death of Mr. Mallard. Mrs. Mallard is suddenly hit by the realization of her freedom and she utters the words "<em>free, free, free</em>". Even the use of the words "<em>coursing blood warmed and relaxed every inch of her</em>" shows a feeling of calm and relief, rather than the expected mourning. So, the answer to the question of which words that establish a mood of relief will be-
d. “escaped,” “free,” “warmed,” and “relaxed”.
