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

How is the character Gerasim portrayed in chapters 9-12 of Tolstoy’s The Death of Ivan Ilyich? Is he a realistic or unrealistic
vivado [14]

Answer: The answer on plato is:Tolstoy presents an unrealistic portrayal of the character Gerasim in chapters 9–12. The kindness and patience he shows when attending to his sick master for long hours are not entirely believable. The following excerpt from chapter 9 shows that Gerasim is completely unaffected by the daily unpleasantness of attending to Ivan Ilyich’s needs: Gerasim was sitting at the foot of the bed dozing quietly and patiently, while he himself lay with his emaciated stockinged legs resting on Gerasim's shoulders; the same shaded candle was there and the same unceasing pain. "Go away, Gerasim," he whispered. "It's all right, sir. I'll stay a while." Tolstoy shows no flaws in Gerasim’s character. Gerasim does not have the qualities that characters usually have in realist works. He is not ordinary. His approach to life and death is not conventional. He is the only character in the book who doesn’t lie about Ivan Ilyich’s condition. He accepts the fact of his master’s illness and does not feel the need to hide it. He is not afraid of death. The following excerpt from chapter 11 shows that Gerasim inspires Ivan Ilyich to reflect on his past life and to eventually acknowledge that he had based his life on superficial values: His mental sufferings were due to the fact that that night, as he looked at Gerasim's sleepy, good-natured face with its prominent cheek-bones, the question suddenly occurred to him: "What if my whole life has been wrong?

Explanation: The explanation is above.

Read this line from Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven":
gogolik [260]

The correct answer is C. AH, disTINCtly I reMEMber IT was IN the BLEAK DeCEMber.

Edgar Allan Poe's poem, "The Raven," is written in the trochaic octameter. Let us break down what that means:

1. trochaic - this refers to the meter of the poem, trochee. Trochee is the type of meter which consists of two syllables, where the first one is stressed (written in capital letters), and the second one is unstressed (written in lower letters), like in option C

2. octameter - this refers to the number of syllables within the entire line. Octa means eight, and one meter consists of two syllables, so if you multiply those two, you will get the exact number of syllables in one line, which is sixteen.
