Reading novels is one of the greatest pleasures in my life. Some call reading fantasy and science fiction a form of escapism. One of the best ways to learn about history is by reading historical novels.

A simple sentence contains only one clause with a subject and verb phrase. In the first sentence, "reading novels" is the subject and "is" is the verb. In the second sentence, the subject is "Some" and the verb is "call". In the third sentence the subject is "One" and the verb is "is".

The other sentences don't work because in "What a person reads can tell you a lot about him or her" there are two verb phrases "reads" and "can tell'.

In the sentence "Reading books can take you places that you have never been before" there are also two clauses: "Reading books can take you places" and "you have never been before."

Why did the author write this passage? Should You Work During the School Year?
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Maryam Khan wrote this passage "Should You Work During the School Year?" to encourage students to work not because their parents worked, but because of the unique life-long experience that the students can gain while working and studying.

Students who work reflectively appreciate their classroom lessons.  They understand that their lessons can be practicalized, and in the process, discover the world of work.  They intend to be get themselves better prepared for life than those who do not work.

 

Explanation:

Working during the school year is a way of earning some income to help betray the studentship expenses.  To lessen the near-total reliance on parents and students loans, working appears to be the best, and saves one from wasting valuable time, partying as many students do.

In “The Lady of Shalott” by Alfred, Lord Tennyson, what causes the curse to take effect?
anastassius [24]
D. Sir Lancelot rides by on his horse. 

Lady Shalott was a lady living all alone in a tower near Camelot. She's cursed and she didn't know what the curse was. She must only weave images on her loom reflected from her mirror the busy life of the people in Camelot. But she didn't look directly down there. 
Until one day, she saw Sir Lancelot riding by on his horse down to Camelot. She was fascinated by the knight's face, so she stopped weaving and looked directly down at Camelot to where he was heading. Because of this incident, the mirror cracked from one side to the other, bringing about the curse. 

The main cause is the appearance of Sir Lancelot to the lady's eyes because that causes her to stop weaving and to look directly down Camelot which therefore causes the mirror to crack. The cracking of the mirror is only a sign that the curse has taken effect not the cause.
