Answer:
D. Five young girls were killed at the bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham.
Explanation:
The 16th Street Baptist Church bombing was an act of white supremacist terrorism that occurred on September 15, 1963, in Birmingham, Alabama. Before Sunday morning services at the 16th Street Baptist Church, a church visited by mostly black churchgoers, a bomb went off, killing <u>four</u> young girls were killed and injuring 22 others. The church also served as a meeting place for civil rights leaders. This violent incident helped draw national attention to the fight for civil rights for African Americans and served as a turning point, contributing to support for passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
The connotative meaning of the word “trunk” in the poem is “a container”. In the poem “<em>Verses Upon the Burning of our House</em>” by Anne Bradstreet (1666), the author expresses the traumatic <u>loss of her home and her possessions</u>. After awakening to the tragic event, she goes outside and watches her house and possessions burning down. Once the fire has been put out, she mourns for the physical items destroyed: the <em>trunk </em>and the <em>chest</em>, everything she “<em>counted best</em>”; her “<em>pleasant things</em>”.
I think the sentence that uses it correctly is the last one.
For the first question, item D is correct because you'll need to place a comma before and after parenthetical elements: "<span>The beach, which closes after Labor Day, has white sand."
For the second question, item D is correct because commas are only needed for a series of three or more elements; thus, no commas are needed: "</span><span>I bought a beautiful pitcher and eight glasses."
For the third question, there are no commas needed; thus, item A is the correct sentence: "</span><span>The music made me sleepy."
</span><span>
For the fourth question, item C is the correct response because commas are needed after subordinate clauses that begin a sentence: "</span><span>As the band marched across the field, the crowd cheered."
</span>
For the fifth question, item D is the correct response because in order to keep from having a run-on sentence a comma is always needed before a conjunction that is connecting two complete sentences: "<span>He works long hours, yet he keeps up with his studies."</span>
