An heir is one who is destined to receive an inheritance, estate, or something of importance from family or close friends.  It can also mean continuing the legacy.  Ages would be of the same time period or past years.  To say "we are the heirs of ages..." would mean we are the ones to benefit or gain importance of the current time period or that of the time around them, or we are to continue the legacy of our time.  Use this information when reading the passage to help determine the author's meaning.

almond37 [142]

Answer:

The solution, I think, is to try our best and see what happens.

Explanation:

A comma is a slight pause in any given sentence that allows a reader to take a break though for only a short time. It is also used in many ways, including the separation of two or more independent clauses in a sentence.

The five rules of using a comma are that it must be used after an introductory phrase/ clause, after a parenthetical phrase or clause, to separate two independent clauses that are joined by a coordinating conjunction, to separate items in a list, and before any quotations.

Therefore, the clause "I think" in the given sentence will be put in between commas. Thus, the correct sentence will be <u>"The solution, I think, is to try our best and see what happens."</u><u> </u>
