Answer:

<em>d. Vampires can be nice enough, they just need to eat like the rest of us.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Option a does not give a clear indication of why vampires have a bad reputation. The word reputation should be associated with the reason.

Option b does associates the reason for the reputation, but the part 'blood is thought to be sucked by them' is not correct grammatically.

option c shows the presence of tautology, where horribly and awfully are used before bad.

option d is the only option that shows the proper use of grammar.

Underline the best transition words.
Maslowich

Once we underline the<u> best transition words</u>, we have the following:

Baseball is one of America's most popular sports. Some of its heroes, indeed, some very talented athletes shared their wealth to help other people. For example, Jackie Robinson was 28 when he started playing professional baseball in 1947 and played for 10 years. Likewise, Willie Mays was 20 when he started playing in 1951 and played for about 22 years. In fact, they played against each other in the 1954 World Series when Mays and the New York Giants scored 7 runs, and Robinson and the Brooklyn Dodgers scored 16.

We can define transition words as words used to<u> connect</u> other words, <u>phrases, ideas, sentences, or paragraphs</u>. Transition words help readers move forward through the text smoothly and help authors link their thoughts in an understandable way.

The transition word "indeed" can be used for<u> emphasis, agreement, or support.</u> In the text above, it is supporting and explaining that the heroes are very talented players.

The text moves on to offer two <u>examples</u> of very talented players, which is why we should choose the transition "for example."

After mentioning Robinson, the author mentions Mays, showing a similarity between the two. <u>To show similarity</u>, the best transition is "likewise".

Finally, the author adds the information that both players played against each other. <u>To add information</u>, "in fact" is the best option as a transition word.

In conclusion, the text above has been completed with the transition words that best suit its meaning.

Which of the following story elements in earlier versions of the Faustus legend did Marlowe retain in The Tragical History of Do
chubhunter [2.5K]

"Historia von D. Johann Fausten" is the earliest narration of the legend of Faust written by an anonymous German author and published by Johann Spies in Frankfurt, Germany in 1587. It became the inspiration of Christopher Marlowe’s play entitled "The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus". Marlowe retains the following three story elements from the original legend:  

<em>Faustus visits the Pope.</em> This happens during his third exploratory journey. Becoming invisible he demands to witness all the luxuries inside the Pope’s Palace. He remained there, unseen, for three days and three nights.  

<em>The agreement between Faust and the Devil is signed in Faustus' own blood.</em> The agreement contained three clauses, the second of which indicated that a sample of Faustus’ blood would authenticate the negotiation. Doctor Faustus, pierced open a vein in his left hand using a pocketknife.

<em>The Devil serves Faustus for 24 years. </em>Based on the first clause of the agreement, Faustus agrees to give his soul to the Devil, that is become his property at the expiration of a certain number of years. In both the original and Marlow’s narration, this period was of 24 years, during which the Devil, by means of the demon Mephistophilis would be at Faustus’ service.
