The 1st scene happens in the middle of the night, on the dark and windy castle wall. The guards are freezing with cold and trembling with fear, as there's a Ghost who appears and wants to say something.
On the other hand, the 2nd scene happens at court, where all the courtiers are present, along with the queen and the new king Claudius. Although the former king has recently passed out (or murdered, as the reader will find out later), everybody is serene and optimistic. Only the melancholic prince Hamlet is missing.
The two settings are juxtaposed with a context that binds them together (adding to the contrast, at the same time): everybody is well aware of the strange and sudden circumstances of the old king's death. The 1st scene is spooky because of his Ghost who seeks young Hamlet. The 2nd scene leaves a bitter taste because his funeral has been followed by a wedding all too soon.
Answer:
Argumentative writing → An essay argues that light on the field would add to the quality of life in the community.
Claim → The soccer field would get more use because the lights would allow night games.
Counterclaim → Some people think it is not worth the expense
Evidence → According to a poll, more than one third of the citizens approve the cost of adding lights to the soccer field
Reasoning → Our town should place lights near the soccer fields so teams can play at night.
Explanation:
I have been able to place each sentence to the correct term.
An essay that argues on a subject is usually classified to be argumentative writing. The statement claimed that "<em>The soccer field would get more use because the lights would allow night games</em>". This is actually a claim. But an opposition to the claim is known as counterclaim. So, when "<em>Some people think it is not worth the expense</em>", then it is counterclaim.
Then an evidence was given which we see from the poll that was carried out. Evidence usually comes with facts and data which is what the poll provided.
The speaker actually reasoned or thought that their "<em>...town should place lights near the soccer fields so teams can play at night</em>". This is reasoning.
The words and punctuation that best corrects any errors in the sentence is option A. well-known. The word well-known should have the punctuation mark hyphen because it is a compound word. Compound words are words that consist of two or more words linked together by a hyphen, in order to create a new word with a new meaning. The word "well-known" means famous.
A parallel structure means that withing the sentence the same structure/scheme is used everywhere. So the correct answer is B. A cannot be correct as you have "BEING honest", "BEING courageous" and then just "compassionate". BEING was deleted. C is also incorrect as you have "BEING honest" and then just nouns "courage" and "compassion" - the structure has changed. It is the same case with D - "IS honest", "IS courageous" and then just "compassionate", without IS. And B is correct because we have three nouns "honesty", "courage", "compassion" - the structure remains the same.
