For question 1 the correct answer is:

B. Open and honest communication contribute to a happy relationship.

the subject Open and honest communication is plural then the verb agrees to it

For question 2 the correct answer is:

Answer:

A. In regions of the world where poverty prevails, starvation and poor hygiene lead to disease.

D. Interesting news is what sells our paper.

Explanation:

Subject-verb agreement occurs when the subject corresponds in number with the form of the verb. In that matter, a singular subject must agree with a singular verb, and a plural subject must agree with a plural verb.

The rest of the sentences are incorrect because their subjects and verbs do not agree in number. Their correct version is the following:

B. Open and honest communication contributes to a happy relationship.

C. The president or the vice president is speaking today.

D. The purpose of this essay is to investigate how the design of toothbrushes has changed over time.

A. A large herd of cows was grazing by the river.

B. A pound of cookies costs about a dollar.

C.Each of us wants to do well in school.

PLEASE HELP!!!

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

A.) It symbolizes that Ozymandias's kingdom has crumbled with time.

Explanation:

"Ozymandias" is a poem written by Percy Shelley, an English romantic poet. She started writing it in 1817. It is said that she was inspired by the statue of Rameses II (in fragments) that the British museum acquired.

The poem clearly shows that there was once a powerful race in Egypt, but has been forgotten with time. The stone talked about Ozymandias being the "King of Kings" and how glorious his city was. However, it has already crumbled with time because it is no longer there. There were only a few evidence of it, such as the fragments found.

How did Thomas More's Utopia differ from Desiderius Erasmus' Praise of Folly?

inna [77]

Erasmus' Praise of Folly is a satire which uses a narrator and main character named Folly who is the personification of the author's contemporary world of the Medieval Ages. Folly has a deep-rooted ignorance and stubbornness which is evident for all to see. Folly is pretentious and foolish which aims to encourage and support humankind's numerous faults and shortcomings. More's Utopia pictures out a more direct solution to the times with how he depicts the manners and ways of the people from a place called Utopia. Hythlodaeus -- More's parallel to Erasmus' Folly -- has a name that literally translates to "dispenser of nonsense" is the narrator of the book.
