Happy
Because he said "improved" several times, and improvement is a good thing that makes most people happy
The end of the poem is ironic because it shows that the pirate caused his death, thinking he was being benefited.
We can arrive at this answer because:
- "The Inchcape Rock" shows a bell that was placed on a rock, to prevent ships from sinking when hitting that rock.
- This is because it was not possible to see the rock when it was raining.
- However, a pirate named Sir Ralph The Rover looted the sinking ships, but after the bell, the ships stopped sinking, which harmed his business.
- So the pirate decided to cut the bell from the rock and thought he was benefiting.
- However, on a stormy day, he could not see the rock and ended up hitting her ship, which caused him to sink and die.
In this case, the resolution of the poem is ironic, because the pirate caused harm to himself, thinking he was causing a benefit.

Answer:
A
Explanation:
Throughout the passage, the author takes the stance that too much gaming is unhealthy and is a bad obsession for young people.
Let's analyze the answer choices.
A.
This choice is correct. The passage states that "young people become obsessed with video games". The author also says that "many gamers play indoors...They rarely do any outside activities, including exercise." If a sentence about the harmful effects of no exercise was added, it would help support the argument that too much gaming is harmful.
B.
This choice is incorrect. This sentence has nothing to do with the fact that excess gaming is bad.
C.
This choice is also incorrect. A release date for the PlayStation 3 doesn't help persuade the readers that too much gaming is not good.
D.
This choice is also incorrect. Games without consoles do not support the argument that gaming in excess is bad.
The best choice is A: A lack of physical activity can lead to obesity and diabetes.
Answer:
A)The underline independent clauses in the passage above are not linked by parallel structure
Explanation:
Parallel structure simply means using a similar or same pattern to indicate that two or more ideas have the same level of importance. It is also known as parallelism.
The underlined (in this case the sentence in quote) independent clause is joined by the coordinating conjunction "and" to show that if he answered all the criticism he would have no time for anything else.
