Answer:

<em>The sentence that is puctuated correctly is</em><em> B. When the milk carton fell, it spilled; but I picked it up before all the milk flowed onto the floor</em>.

Explanation:

Sentence B is punctuated correctly because the following puctuation rules are respected:

  • there are <u>two related independent clauses joint by a semicolon</u> -<em>when the milk carton fell, it spilled </em>and <em>but I picked it up before all the mil flowed onto the floor.</em>
  • the <u>adverbial clause</u> -<em>when the milk carton fell</em>- is <u>separated from the rest of the sentence with a comma</u>.

Which quote from the passage BEST conveys Frankenstein’s desire to kill the creature?
suter [353]

After reading the quotes, we can choose the following as the best one to convey Frankenstein's desire to kill the creature:

C. "Come on then, that I may extinguish the spark which I so negligently bestowed."

Dr. Victor Frankenstein, one of the characters in Mary Shelley's novel "Frankenstein," puts together body parts from different corpses and gives life to a horrendous creature.

Although the creature's appearance and existence is repulsive, it does have feelings, like a human.

However, Frankenstein is incapable of loving it. He soon begins to desire to kill the creature, especially when it  starts to destroy the things and people Frankenstein loves the most.

That is what is shown in the passage "Come on then, that I may extinguish the spark which I so negligently bestowed."

What he means is that he wants to take away the life he has given to the creature.

With that in mind, option C is the best choice.

What are the costs and benefits of teaching television as a form of literature in classroom?
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

We have always had stories. They were first told orally as fairy tales, folklore, and epic poems, and were eventually written down. And for as long as we have had stories, we’ve had literature. Stories are usually considered literature when they have long-lasting artistic or social value. Epic poems like The Odyssey or novels like To Kill a Mockingbird are considered literature because they have deeper meanings that go beyond the story. Both stories are meant to do more than just amuse the reader. A pop novel, like a James Patterson book you can buy at the airport, would not traditionally be considered literature because it is not meant to do much more than entertain the reader.

As we’ve transitioned from hearing stories to reading them, our ideas have changed about what kinds of stories have merit. We have always made a point to pass on the stories we value to next generation, regardless of their form. Therefore, it should not be so outrageous to declare that a new form of literature has been forged and needs to be passed on: television shows.

Television shows can be as complex as novels and can provide students with opportunities to learn that novels do not. Yet, there are legitimate concerns about using classroom time to dissect1 television. One issue is that complex television shows tend to have adult or graphic themes not suitable for the classroom. Another concern involves how much time students spend on television. Plenty of students already watch and discuss television in their own time, so is television needed in the classroom, too? Finally, the written word teaches cognitive2 skills that television cannot.
