<span>II. “My eyes, they dazzled at her flowing knees;”

The sentence which best identifies the main idea of paragraph two is the following one:
B. Scientists are confused by the different ways the rocks move, and the theories involving wind, ice, and mud have not been proven.
Right in the beginning of paragraph two, it is said that scientists are baffled by the variety of rock movement. Then, there is the description of their movement and some possible reasons for it to happen (wind, ice and mud) are suggested by scientists. The paragraph ends with the statement that none of the theories have been confirmed by research. Therefore, letter B summarizes the main idea of the paragraph very well.
Hector and Juan because they sound cool
"It is so hot today!" Sam exclaimed. "The ice in my drink has already melted."
Answer:
1) The revised version of the paragraph would be as follows:
Huckleberry Finn was an excellent book. It told of a raft journey down the Mississippi. The book has been enjoyed by children and adults. I like to read once a year. Maybe we all have that desire to be free. You can get away from it all when you read about Huck.
2) The passage with the correct punctuation of the section of the paragraph is the one that follows: I like to read it once a year. Maybe we all have that desire to be free.
Explanation:
The first option is the right choice because in this sentence the writer is stating that he likes reading Huckleberry Finn once year. It's a fact. Therefore, it would not make sense for an adverb of probability like <em>maybe</em> to be included in the sentence. The adverb is part of the next sentence in which the writer presents a thought, a belief. He thinks that probably we all have a desire to be free. But he does not know it for sure.
