Answer:

B. he and Daisy are not a happily married couple.

Explanation:

It is obvious from the beginning of the novel that Daisy and Tom are not in love with each other - they are together out of convenience. Daisy still somewhat loves Gatsby and Tom has a mistress. The phone calls he receives during the dinner are from his lover, Myrtle. The author used her to show how empty and vain the characters, especially Tom and Daisy, are in this novel.

Which sentence uses details about sound to describe the setting?
Alex_Xolod [135]

The correct answer is B. Finally, I stood still, listening to the barely audible whoosh- whoosh- whoosh from the propellers.

Explanation

Sounds can be represented linguistically through words, this resource is known as onomatopoeia. Onomatopoeia is the use of letters to form words in the language itself to imitate certain non-verbal sounds, such as the sounds of animals, natural phenomena, impacts, devices, etc. Therefore, the correct answer is B. "Finally I stood still, listening to the barely audible whoosh- whoosh- whoosh from the propellers" because in this sentence the onomatopoeia "whoosh" is used to express the sound of the birds.

Which sentences correctly use quotations from "A Modest Proposal"? Check all that apply.
Natalka [10]
In my opinion, the sentences that correctly use quotations are:

<span>2) Swift asserts that whoever finds “a fair, cheap and easy method” for solving the overwhelming issue of poverty in England would deserve to have “his statue set up for a preserver of the nation.” The author quotes chosen parts of Swift's narrative with correct punctuation.

</span><span>4) Swift explains that his proposal would bring relief to impoverished parents because they would “be rid of the charge of maintaining them after the first year.” The author quotes a part of the narrative.

5) “This would be a great inducement to marriage, which all wise nations have either encouraged by rewards, or enforced by laws and penalties,” writes Swift about his proposal. The author quotes an entire sentence as direct speech.
</span>
The first example isn't correct because the whole sentence is in quotation marks. The third one isn't correct either because there is no quotation; it is just a paraphrase.
