Answer:
The sentence which possesses a tone that would be most appealing to a professor is:
d. Please allow me the opportunity to argue for a better grade.
Explanation:
A situation such as this, in which you need to address someone who is hierarchically superior to you and who has the power to change something that affects you, demands a certain type of tone and style. Since this refers to you addressing a professor, we can assume the use of formal language will be seen in more of a positive light. But that is not all. Politeness and diplomacy are also crucial. Take a look at option B, for instance. Even though the language is fine, it lacks diplomacy. It accuses the professor of having been sloppy, which will most likely offend him.
<u>The best option is letter D. It uses formal language, and the sentence itself is polite, without any unnecessary assumptions or accusations.</u>
Answer:
Comfort and warmth.
That the father feels very comfortable digging.
Explanation:
<em>Digging</em> is a poem written by Seamus Heaney, describing the life of the speaker through the act of potato digging which was the primary means of livelihood in Ireland. The poem compares the lives of the speaker, his father, and his grandfather.
The word <em>"nestled" </em>is used in the first line of the fourth stanza- <em>"The coarse boot nestled on the lug"</em>. The word in itself is typically associated with <u>warmth and comfort, safety, and peace</u>. And the speaker's use of this word to describe how his father's boots were <em>"nestled on the lug"</em> seems to suggest that his father felt comfortable and safe in the work he is doing, that of digging potatoes.

Answer:
He went to great trouble to arrange this visit with his old partner because:
C. He learned his lesson too late and wanted to save Scrooge from an afterlife of misery.
Explanation:
<em>“It is required of every man,” the Ghost returned, “that the spirit within him should walk abroad among his fellowmen, and travel far and wide; and if that spirit goes not forth in life, it is condemned to do so after death. …”</em>
The lines above are said by Jacob Marley in Stave One of "A Christmas' Carol". Marley is now a ghost and has come to visit his old friend, Scrooge. <u>According to Marley, people are supposed to evolve while they are alive. They are supposed to become better, kinder, more empathetic toward others. In case they fail to do so, they are bound to do it after death.</u>
<u>That is why he has decided to visit Scrooge. He wants his friend to avoid having the same fate as himself. Scrooge is a cold-hearted man, so Marley wants him to learn his lesson before death and become a better person.</u>
