The answer to this question would be persuade readers to learn a language
Answer:
The question is not complete, as none of the clauses in the sentence are underlined, however, I will give you the type of each of the two clauses:
<u>Because he ran:</u> (subordinate clause)
<u>he was able to catch the bus.</u> (independent clause)
Explanation:
A clause is a part of a sentence, and a clause contains a verb.
Subordinate/dependent clauses are clauses that cannot stand alone when isolated from a sentence, and still make complete sense, instead, they help to give further meaning to the main/independent clause. In this case "Because he ran", is not a complete thought on its own, as it leads to asking the question "so what?"
Independent/main clauses can stand alone and still make sense. In this example "he was able to catch the bus" can stand alone and still make sense.
A. the effects of violence. I believe this is correct. The speech I am reading is a Ceremony for the War Dead
, it mentions the effects of war a lot.
B. the difficulty of change. Although he mentions change, the theme is no the difficulty of change, maybe the necessity.
C. the quest for knowledge. In his speech there is no mention of the quest for knowledge.
D. the struggle for meaning. I do not see anything that mentions a struggle for meaning.
As you can see from above, the answer should be A.
Have a great day! :)
