Which one of the following sentences is punctuated correctly?
salantis [7]
<span>The correct answer is b. The sea calmed, but no boats left shore. Option a is incorrect because there are unnecessary commas between the noun and its verb ("sea, calmed" and "boats, left"). Option c is incorrect because when using a semi colon, the phrases on both sides of it should be able to stand alone. While "the sea calmed" can work by itself, "but no boats, left shore" cannot, thus rendering the semi colon incorrect. Additionally, there is an unnecessary comma between the noun "boats" and the verb "left." Finally, option d is incorrect because there should be a comma before the conjunction "but."</span>

What do you think Sir John Rowell means when he says, "man is the worst"? Explain your reasoning
andrezito [222]

This question is about "The Hand".

Answer:

He meant that the human being is more dangerous than wild animals like hippopotamus, tiger and gorilla.

Explanation:

"The Hand" is the horror story about the mysterious death of Sir John Rowell and the disembodied hand that appears several times in the story. However, before being murdered, Sir John Rowell talks to the narrator about his adventures and his passion for hunting. He claims that he has hunted several wild and dangerous animals such as the hippopotamus, the gorilla and the tiger, but that he was not afraid, as there are more dangerous animals, which he also likes to hunt, such as man. That's because man is rational and knows how to fight back. Wild animals, on the other hand, lack these skills.
