Answer:

C). He wanted to suggest that one should be willing to go to great lengths for a belief.

Explanation:

Henry David Thoreau is the renowned American philosopher and essayist who is acknowledged worldwide for his transcendental thoughts and ideals reflected in his works. His work 'Civil Dis-obedience' reflects his fascination towards 'functioning of the jail'.

As per the question, option C displays the statement that Thoreau hopes from his modern day successors to make with imprisonment as <u>he wished to imply that a person must be compliant and prepared enough to 'go to great lengths' for a belief which they find ethical, social, and virtuous. He urges his successors to believe in their conscience instead of laws.</u> Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.

Read the sentence. Dan is a great coach________ he motivates the girls in a positive way. Which correctly states the punctuation
amid [387]
The correct answer is:  [B]:  "semicolon" .
___________________________________________________________
<u>Note</u>:  
___________________________________________________________
Choice:  [A]:  "comma" — is INCORRECT.  Note that placing a "comma" would result in an error known as "comma splice".
___________________________________________________________
Choice:  [C]:  "period" — is INCORRECT.   Note that placing a "period" would be incorrect.  Doing so would result in a new sentence that does not begin with a capital letter.
____________________________________________________________
Choice:  [D]:  "no punctuation is needed" —is INCORRECT.  Note that if the statement were left alone, the statement would be a "<u>run-on sentence</u>". 
___________________________________________________________
The correct answer is:  [B]:  "semicolon".  If a new sentence could be formed; and if the ideas could connect; it is acceptable to place a "semicolon" between the "two potential statements to form one statement" ; and to NOT CAPITALIZE the first word of the "second [potential sentence]" —<u>unless</u> that "[second potential sentence] begins with a proper pronoun.

Paraphrase the claim colvin makes about the mission of war correspondents line 12-20
balu736 [363]

Answer:

According to Marie Colvin, the mission of War Correspondents is to tell the truth as it is.

She states that regardless of what nomenclature in the English language is used to describe or qualify the activities that go on during a war and in the war front, the devastating effects are neither enervated nor does it change.

She makes a case for the women who were brutally widowed, children who were forcefully orphaned, mothers whose children were in the most gruesome fashion invented by man yanked away from their lives. She does not forget to make mention of all properties that were lost.  

She states towards the end of the lines indicated above that it is the job and purpose of a War Correspondent to say '<em>it</em>' like it is.

By that, she meant that every war correspondent must say the truth about what goes on during the war. She added that every war reported comes at a risk and at a cost. It is the job of the War Correspondent to check to see if it was worth the risk.

Cheers!
