The correct answer is C. The suffix tells the reader that the meaning is related to "having the quality of something."

Explanation:

The word "altruistic" is used to describe the quality of being concerned about others rather than only thinking about oneself. This word includes the root "altrui" that derives from Latin and means "somebody else" and the suffix -ic that is used in English to form adjectives or to form words that describe qualities. For example, words such as democratic, enthusiastic, or pacific that have this suffix are all qualities. According to this, the suffix in the word tells the reader the word refers to a quality (Option C.)

As a senior prefect in 7r school write a letter to the principal pointing out at least two practices that should be discouraged
Verdich [7]

Answer:

A letter to the Principal.

Explanation:

To,

The Principal,

ABC School,

12.02.2020

Subject: Practices to be discouraged and habits to be developed among students.

Respected Ma'am,

With due respect, I John Markley, the Senior Prefect, want to mention the practices that should be discouraged among the students of our school. The two main practices are- bringing mobile phones in the school and the getting aggressive very frequently. These days, it has been observed that some students are bringing mobile phones in the school and instead of attending classes they sit in the playground to use their mobile phones. This practice of keeping mobile phones in the school premises is very dangerous to the future of students. It has been also noted that the students get aggressive when they are asked to submit their mobile phones.

However, there are two habits that we should develop in our students to make them better citizens. These are- to tell a truth in all circumstances and never take a short-cut for success. We should develop the habits of speaking the truth and never take a short-cut to become successful among our students. Short-cuts often lead to the wrong paths and more problems to achieve the goal. Therefore, the teachers should organize some events to better know their students and develop new and better habits among them.

A more focus on the above points will make a difference between ours and other school's students.

Thanking You

Yours truly

John Markley (Senior Prefect)

What is twain's claim in the lowest animal?
Oksana_A [137]
I have been scientifically studying the traits and dispositions of the "lower animals" (so-called), and contrasting them with the traits and dispositions of man. I find the result humiliating to me. For it obliges me to renounce my allegiance to the Darwinian<span>theory of the Ascent of Man from the Lower Animals; since it now seems plain to me that the theory ought to be vacated in favor of a new and truer one, this new and truer one to be named the Descent of Man from the Higher Animals.</span>
