Answer:
what are the blanks? What is the context?
Explanation:
Gatsby had not used his swimming pool once untill the day he died. He was very wealthy and had access to many luxuries but did not enjoy them. The purpose of these luxuries was to impress his love Daisy. The fact that he used his pool before he died probably represents the fact that he knew his time was limited and he used this time to finaly induldge in the luxuries he had. He knew he would never be able to have Daisy now and so there was no point in just having things to have them. I hope that helps.
Answer:
A. Several tribute CDs were released in his honor.
Explanation:
For a singer, the act of someone making a tribute album is one thoughtful and respectful way of paying tribute to the original person. Paying tributes shows the respect and love one has for another.
So, Luther Vandross may have died but his work, inspiration, and importance are nevertheless still alive. After his death, several tribute albums were released in his honor. That tribute album is not something trivial, for it included the likes of <em>"Stevie Wonder, Mary J. Blige, Usher, Alicia Keys, Beyoncé, Elton John, and John Legend"</em>, big stars in the music industry. This shows how Vandross may have been so important and respected in the music industry.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
Answer:
MAKE NO CHANGE
Explanation:
There is nothing wrong with the punctuation of the sentence we are analyzing here. First, let's take a look at the colon. When we need to introduce a long list of items, a colon should be used right before the list begins. That is exactly what we have here. The speaker placed a colon before listing the locations to be visited.
Now, we can usually separate the items in a list with commas. However, in this case, not only do we have long names for each location, but we also have the "location of the location". That is, a certain museum is located in a certain city, and to separate the name of the museum from the name of the city, we must use a comma already. For that reason, when we name another location, a different one, we should use a semicolon instead of a comma.
