An author claims that "Athletes caught using performance-enhancing drugs should be sentenced to prison." The author provides the

following reason as support: In 2013, the TV show Sport-Zone surveyed 2,000 athletes. 73 percent admitted knowing a teammate who took performance-enhancing drugs. Huang Kroll, spokesperson for the International Olympic Committee, was interviewed during the program. "Using illegal substances to gain an advantage is a huge issue," he explained. "Unless stronger laws are passed—laws that result in prison rather than suspension from competition—the problem will continue to grow." Which choice best describes the reason the author provides? It is effective. It supports the claim clearly and logically. It is irrelevant. It discusses a fact that is off topic and does not support the claim. It is unreliable. It does not give any details to prove that the source can be trusted. It is unverified. It does not cite a source to show where the information was located.

A hero is not always a tragic hero. Read Aristotle's classical definition of a tragic
Triss [41]

AThe first Aristotle’s criterion of the tragic hero requires that the character must be noble or a man of high status. In that sense, as described by Achebe, “Okonkwo was well known throughout the nine villages and even beyond. His fame rested on solid personal achievements” (Achebe, 3). Starting as a sharecropper with no inheritance from his father, Okonkwo works very hard and makes his way to a wealthy and respected man of titles in Umuofia. From his hard work, Okonkwo has 3 wives with many children, a large compound with obi for each of his wives and a large stock of yams. Okonkwo earns himself respect from people both inside his clan and outside his clan through many of his achievements. When he is a young man of eighteen, he brings honor to his village by throwing the Amalinze the Cat, a wrestler who is undefeated for 7 years. In addition, Okonkwo is one of the nine Egwugwu, a respected judge in the community who is believed to be the spirit of the ancestor. Furthermore, Okonkwo is also chosen by his village to be their representative to negotiate with Mbaino village about the murderer of an Umuofia girl in Mbaino market. With ease, Okonkwo successfully brings back a boy and a virgin as compensation and ends the conflict peacefully, without any confrontation.

Hope this helps

what is the disagreement in this sentence? (options: misplaced modifier, adverbs vs. adjectives, subject-verb disagreement, inco
kkurt [141]

Answer:

The disagreement in this sentence is misplaced modifier.

Explanation:

A modifier, as the name suggests, is a word or phrase used to modify another element mentioned in the sentence. For that reason, <u>modifiers tend to stand close to the word they refer to in order to avoid ambiguity.</u> <u>A misplaced modifier happens</u> when ambiguity is not avoided. <u>The modifier is placed incorrectly, too far from the word it refers to</u>, which makes it difficult to understand and connect the ideas.

<u>In the sentence we are analyzing here "[s]unny yet dusty" is a misplaced modifier. It makes no sense for the word "sunny" to refer to "traveler" in this context. That means this modifier refers to "destination", but is too far away from it in the structure. One way to correct it is:</u>

The traveler finally arrived at her destination, which was sunny yet dusty.
