As it is used in the passage, globe can best be defined as a
ludmilkaskok [199]

In the given passage, <em>globe</em> can be best described as a <em>head.</em>

Explanation:

The passage you were given is from the play <em>Hamlet </em>(full title: <em>The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark</em>), written by English poet, playwright, and actor William Shakespeare between 1599 and 1602. In the fifth scene of the first act, Hamlet says:

<em>Remember thee! Ay, thou poor ghost, while memory holds a seat In this distracted </em><em>globe</em><em>. </em>

In this scene, Hamlet speaks with the ghost, who claims to be his father's spirit and tells about how he was murdered in a <em>foul and most unnatural</em> way by his own brother, Claudius, who has successfully taken his throne. He is desperate as he is incapable of taking revenge and asks Hamlet to do that for him. This moves Hamlet, who swears to take revenge on his uncle. The word <em>globe </em>Hamlet uses here actually means <em>head.</em>

Recent studies have shown that playing video games can actually have positive effects on a child's behavior's and development
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

In the past, it has been thought that video games can have negative effects on children. However, new studies are arguing this is not true.

Series of studies have proved that children that play video <u>games have better cognition skills and navigation skills, as these games have helped them practice visual and spatial copying, dealing with maps and with space. </u>Many of strategic games rely on people having good navigational and map reading skills, and this can improve children’s orientation greatly.

Video games can also relax children and ease their aggressiveness. Playing certain games that rely on reflexes can relax anxiety and help them ease anger in a socially acceptable way<u>.</u> Additionally, easy-going builder games can relax a person as well and help them feel happier. Generally, <u>games have proven to be helpful for the good emotional development of the children.</u>

As games today are becoming more imaginative and more diverse,<u> plenty of them can have an educational purpose and spark children’s imagination, problem-solving skills and teach them subjects such as history, maths, logic, and so on. </u>

The parentheses portion of the sentence is a ?
djyliett [7]

Answer: C. an independent clause (A. a coordinating conjunction) Explanation: Although nothing is underlined, I think the question stiil can be answered. But first, a quick revision. Independent clause is the one that conveys a complete thought and contains enough information to stand on its own. On the othet hand, dependent clause can only express a meaning if it is linked to an independent clause via the subordinating conjunction. In our sentence, both clauses, "The harsh wind scoured the scant remaining leaves from the trees" and "A desolate landscape remained in its wake" are independent clauses and as such they are linked together via a coordinating conjunction "and". So, if any of these two clauses is underlined then the correct answer is "independent clause". However, if the conjunction "and" is underlined, then the answer is "coordinating conjunction".
