The answer is A.) corruption
Answer:
Lola Ridge's life in New York as a working immigrant was a strong influence on her writing.
Explanation:
Based on the biography and the poem, we can see that Ridge's life in New York as a working immigrant heavily influenced her writing, which she became best known for.
She did not begin writing about immigrants because it was interesting. The lives of immigrants were not easy, and their struggle is what inspired Lola Ridge.
She was a well-known author, and the fact she changed her name didn't influence her career.
She didn't become a painter and activist because her writing about people's rights didn't sell. In fact, her writing is what she is best known for.
All of this makes the second statement the correct one.
Answer:
The answer is C. She asked us to keep the secret between her and I.
Explanation:
"Jack and me, ted and me, and them" are not properly formed sentences, because "-- and me" is not a proper sentence because "me" adds a pausing cause to the sentence, making it improper. "Her and I" is proper, which means the only proper one is C.
Hope this helped.
Answer:
From the given sentence and question, no verb is highlighted, but from the sentence, "If the speaker had been on time, the program would have begun on time", you can see that there is tautology as the word "on time" is used twice in the sentence when it could have been used only once.
Therefore, to correct this tautology, the sentence can be rewritten as: "If the speaker had been on time, the program would have begun early".
As a result of this, there is no incorrect verb form in the sentence, so it is safe to assume that the highlighted verb is correct.
