Answer:

Your answer would be B.

Explanation:

The sentence that correctly uses commas in a non-restrictive phrase is sentence B. This sentence contains the nonessential relative clause <em>which can exist anywhere.</em>

Relative clauses, also called adjectival clauses, function as adjectives. They add description to the sentence; they modify nouns mainly. In this case, the clause modifies the noun <em>rivers. </em>Moreover, the clause is non-restrictive because the information it provides is not considered essential to complete the meaning of the sentence. That is, if the clause was dropped, the meaning of the sentence would be left unchanged (see 1).  For this reason, the clause is also offset with commas.

1) Polluted rivers are unsafe for swimming

I resisted all the way: a new thing for me, and a circumstance which greatly strengthened the bad opinion Bessie and Miss Abbot
Sliva [168]

Answer:

D) to have in one's mind

Explanation:

The question above is related to the story of "Jane Eyre," written by Charlotte Bronte. The incident occurred when John Reed, Jane's cousin, acted cruel again to Jane. He asked Jane what she was hiding (she was actually hiding a book and reading it) and asked her to show him the book. <u>John then demanded that she had no right to touch anything that belonged to them</u> (such as their books). This started the argument with Jane and in the end, John threw the book at Jane. Jane then started shouting at John and calling him a murderer and likened him to the cruel Roman emperors.

The incident caught the attention of Bessie and Miss Abbot. Such incident became evidence of Jane's bad manner according to how she acted, since <u>John was considered the son of her benefactress.</u> This then proves that the word "entertain" means "to have in one's mind." The incident just added to what Bessie and Miss Abbot had in mind, particularly on the bad side, about Jane Eyre.
