Answer:
The correct answer is <u>ENTRY C. </u>
Explanation:
"et"= and (since it is a complete word you don't need a full stop)
"al." = others (you must include the full stop because this is an abbreviation)
"et al." is a latin abbreviation that means "and others".
We use it when acknowlegding a text that has more than two authors. So, if there is less than two authors don't use it! Entry C has the correct punctuation, although options may vary depending on the referencing format that you are required to use as a guideline.
Entry A is incorrect. Because in the world of academic language we try to avoid "and others" when referencing.
Entry B is incorrect. Because "et" doesn't take a full stop since it is a complete word.
Entry D is incorrect. Because after the name of the author you should include a comma, unless you use "et al." for an in-text citation.
Answer:
This statement means that it is self-limiting to subject our lives and decisions to patterns that we are already used to.

A hobgoblin is a spirit creature known in folklores as being mischievous. Consistency is depicted to be a negative trait as it is compared to something mischievous.
Ralph Waldo Emerson hereby implies that it is a mischievous or menacing attitude to get ourselves into a pattern because it is what we have always known to be true. This pattern limits us and prevents us from thinking outside the box.
The most possible answer is either D or A.
In both cases, it's quite sure that these words "grieving, sigh, blight" all represent a more sorrow deviation or a more deepened mood. The best answer of the two would probably depend on how you view the poem, either as one with a hopeful mood or one with a sorrowful mood.
