Answer:

I believe the error to be "calm and cool."

Explanation:

Since the speaker is trying to modify the verb "walked" in order to indicate the manner in which it was done, the right thing to do would be using adverbs. "Calm and cool" are adjectives and should, as such, modify nouns. If, however, we transform them into adverbs by ending the suffix -ly (calmy and coolly), the sentence will be correct.

  • During the chaotic and frenzied celebrations on New Year's Eve, Jason walked calmly and coolly through town.

An inference is someone's belief or opinion based only on the information that he/she knows.

"Squatter sovereignty" was a term used by the people that disagreed with the political doctrine which stated that the owners of federal territories should decide if their lands would enter the Union as slave or free states.

The inference being made in the excerpt is the belief that slavery should be allowed inside the territories of people who chose to enslave others, without the interference of anybody else.

What line does shakespeare throw in to honor king james
maks197457 [2]
People have often wondered if William Shakespeare had any involvement in the most important writing project of his time, the translation and prepartation of the King James Bible. Although there are no ways to verify this, at least one set of clues indicates Shakespeare probably had some involvement with at least the Old Testament part of the book.

William Shakespeare lived from 1564-1616.  The creation of the King James Bible began in the year 1610, the year in which Shakespeare would have been 46 years old.

If you turn to Psalm 46 in the King James Bible, and if you count exactly 46 words into the psalm, you find the word "shake."  If you count 46 words back from the end of that psalm, you will find the word "spear."

It just seems too coincidental to think that it was by fluke circumstances that the 46th Psalm would be translated around the time of Shakespeare's 46th birthday and that the 46th word from the start and the 46th word from the end would be "shake" and "spear."  My professional opinion is, Shakespeare translated that section of the King James Bible and he slipped in a secret byline to prove it was his work.

Dr. Dennis E. Hensley is director of the professional writing department at Taylor University in Upland, Indiana.  He holds four degrees in linguistics and literature, including a Ph.D. in English from Ball State University.  He is the author of 52 books.
