“The Texas spirit of fun and hospitality lights up Paseo del Rio, the San Antonio Riverwalk. This travel destination shimmers with color and light. Along the left bank, two lines of café umbrellas—tropical red, Cancun blue, emerald green, lemon yellow—shelter outdoor diners and adorn the cobblestone walk. Above the rainbow rows of umbrellas, white lights strung between oak trees along the walking path glimmer softly in the dusk.
Miniature lights rim the eaves and roofs of the buildings behind the diners and illuminate the drape of the oak branches bending over them.
Diners can stay warm on cool, evenings with fajitas and margaritas as they watch the lights of the Riverwalk and the sunset glimmer upon the water. As they watch, a steady flow of trimmed boats putter to midstream from under the bridge on the right side of the river.
On this side of the river, the rock walls and the footbridge showcase the beauty of the area’s natural elements and earth tones. Lights trace the arch under the footbridge. Luminaries sit atop both sides of the bridge’s stone-grey railings. At the far side of the bridge, more luminaries light the path along the water’s edge.
People fill the path with laughter and conversation as they stroll beneath trees shimmering with countless lights. All along the river, this canopy of lights buffers the Riverwalk from the buildings rising in the distance. The lights, the good food, the water, the spectacle of color, the festive atmosphere provide a retreat—Texas style!”
In fact, in the second version, the description is nice but lacks the enchantment of details that makes the first one so attractive. In the first version one can almost feel like if we were in there. It's fantastic description that motivates us to rush traveling there.
D because it combines the sentences correctly. I think, I'm puzzled between d and a but I really do think its d. :) Hope this helps!
When night falls, the restrictions on Jews have begun. The town is now under Nazi rule. Jews have lost their freedom and will begin being rounded up and sent to concentration camps or their deaths. Night here is not a time of mystery and wonder. It signifies darkness and death. At this point, the Jews are in the dark about their lives and their future. There is no hope, goodness, or light: only dark. In the book Night by Elie Wiesel he is detailing the darkest point in his life. Where he had lost the desire to live and also his faith.
