Which sentence in this excerpt from Leo Tolstoy’s The Death of Ivan Ilyich suggests that Ivan Ilyich aspired to be part of the e

lite in society from a young age? Ivan Ilyich was le phenix de la famille as people said. He was neither as cold and formal as his elder brother nor as wild as the younger, but was a happy mean between them—an intelligent polished, lively and agreeable man. He had studied with his younger brother at the School of Law, but the latter had failed to complete the course and was expelled when he was in the fifth class. Ivan Ilyich finished the course well. Even when he was at the School of Law he was just what he remained for the rest of his life: a capable, cheerful, good-natured, and sociable man, though strict in the fulfillment of what he considered to be his duty: and he considered his duty to be what was so considered by those in authority. Neither as a boy nor as a man was he a toady, but from early youth was by nature attracted to people of high station as a fly is drawn to the light, assimilating their ways and views of life and establishing friendly relations with them.All the enthusiasms of childhood and youth passed without leaving much trace on him; he succumbed to sensuality, to vanity, and latterly among the highest classes to liberalism, but always within limits which his instinct unfailingly indicated to him as correct. At school he had done things which had formerly seemed to him very horrid and made him feel disgusted with himself when he did them; but when later on he saw that such actions were done by people of good position and that they did not regard them as wrong, he was able not exactly to regard them as right, but to forget about them entirely or not be at all troubled at remembering them.

How is the sentence below best written?
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

The correct answer is <u>C</u>: If he loses the bet, Thomas will have to buy a new jersey for everyone on the team.

Explanation:

We use comma if the <em>if</em> clause appears at the beginning of the sentence.

A: This is not the correct answer as the period appears in the wrong position. We use the period to terminate a declarative sentence. Since this is a conditional sentence, we do not use periods to separate a conditional sentence, nor to interrupt the thought or meaning.

B:  A semicolon is unnecessary; we use a semicolon to link two independent sentences and to join at least two ideas with an equal position or ranking. In this case, we are missing some information from the first part, so we cannot use a semicolon, because the first sentence is incomplete and out of sense.

D: This is not the correct answer, because we do not use a comma if the <em>if </em>clause appears at the end of the sentence.
