Answer: The sentence that demonstrates the correct use of elongated hyphens is "Gideon and Francis took a difficult - but not interesting - science course".

Explanation: Elongated hyphens are added in a sentence to emphasize a particular idea. Therefore, they have the opposite effect of parenthesis, which minimize the information provided. Moreover, elongated hyphens give place to abrupt interruptions. The sentence <u>"Gideon and Francis took a difficult - but not interesting - science course" is the one that uses the elongated hyphens in a correct way because what the writer wants to emphasize is the fact that the science course was not interesting.</u>

What does Chief think is in the pills the patients have to take? one who flew over the cuckoos nest
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Chief Bromden considers that the society in which he lives is controlled by The Combine, a sort of millionaire white elite that manages the population at will, especially minorities like him, who is Native American. Thus, he thinks that the pills are an element of domination of this group, that through institutions like the mental hospital and people like Nurse Ratched apply these elements of control to dominate those people who do not want to see progress, alienating them from their own wills and thoughts, and turning them into easily controllable entities.
