Answer:

B. He tried everything to keep the shelter open—he even begged his friends for support.

Explanation:

Dashes can be used to introduce a pause, an explanation or an interruption in a sentence, and are more informal than using parenthesis. In that respect, the dash in the sentence given precedes a clarification of the first clause. Thus, it demonstrates evidence of how the person tried to keep the shelter open.

The rest of the options contain incorrect uses of dashes, since they cannot separate clauses in conditional sentences or replace commas setting items apart in a list.

g100num [7]

Answer:

The Invisible Red Strin  

 

Ju-Lin is a young Chinese girl living in poverty with her family. When her family must sell her to make ends meet, a traditional Chinese matchmaker buys her to serve as her apprentice. When she got to the house, she was told “First when I am home, you must help me with the cooking and cleaning around the house. When I am traveling, you must accompany me to help carry mt things. In return, you shall have enough to eat and have a small allowance each month. Is that understood.” And after a bit of time Moi-Yun had some clients later that day Ju-Lin ask Moi-Yun “What is the secret of your amazing success, mistress?” Moi-Yun replied with “There is no magic to this Ju-Lin helping people make the right choice in a partner is my passion in life. As the story goes, even at birth, that old matchmaker, God in heaven, ties an invisible red string around the foot of a boy and a girl destined to spend their lives together as husband and wife. No matter the distance or the circumstances, nothing can break this string.” A cople of weeks passed by and a matron came and knocked on the door when Ju-Lin opened the door there was a disgruntled matron. He came inside he talked to Moi-Yun saying “my son is stubborn, and he will not take any women in marring. None of the women in the five naborhoods do not meet his requirements he wants a woman with long peasant feet, and I need someone to tell his there is no women to meet his requirements. So, Ju-Lin the next day went off on her journey to talk to the boy. When she made it, the son just got back from a walk. The matron said "my son, I told you your expectations were unreasonable! Now you will hat to listen to the words of the most respected moi-yun of all five provinces. She couldn’t come in person, but you will hear from her assistant. You should pay close attention, for I have gone through a lot of trouble to moment, but I shall be back shortly.” And she gave him advice and change his lower his expectations.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think this story is trying to say never have to high requirements or you will not get what you want. I think that the way the story updates the character type or story pattern means you must change.  

 

 

Message In A Bottle  

 

 

Christy Dooley is on a famine ship headed to America from Ireland. Just before the St. John reaches Massachusetts, though, it wrecks. He wants to make sure his mother knows what happened to him, so he puts a message and his St. Christopher medal in a bottle and tosses it overboard.  

 

 

I think this story is trying to say never be forgotten. I think that the way the story updates the character type or story pattern means he loves his mother a lot .
