The correct answer is C) contrast.

The connection between the ideas in these sentences is "contrast."

When we use contrast, we want t to compare two sentences, two assumptions, or two facts, so we can see the similarities or the differences and could get to a conclusion. This is done to have a much better perspective of the object of study. In this case, if many people believe a European named Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press, we have to take into consideration that Gutenberg’s press was actually building on inventions that appeared centuries earlier in China. So Gutenberg based his work on previous works from Chinese people.

With this contrast, we are able to understand that the Chinese have their own merit in this marvelous discovery.

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

Romeo and Juliet fall in love at a party. But they come from families which hate each other. They are sure they will not be allowed to marry. Nevertheless, helped by Friar Laurence, they marry in secret instead. Unfortunately, before their wedding night Romeo kills Juliet's cousin in a duel, and in the morning he is forced to leave her. If he ever returns to the city, he will be put to death.

Juliet's parents told her she must marry Paris. Her parents do not know she is already married. She refuses in the beginning, but later agrees because she plans to fake her death and escape to be with Romeo forever; again with the help of Friar Laurence.

Frair Laurence designs the plan. He gives Juliet a sleeping potion. She appears to be dead and was put in a tomb. However, Romeo does not know about the plan, visits her grave, thinks she is dead, and kills himself. When Juliet finally wakes up, she discovers that Romeo is dead and then kills herself.
