Answer:

The correct answer is Antigone's decision to defy Creon's orders and bury her brother.

Explanation:

In plays, <em>rising action</em> is what comes after the <em>exposition </em>(introduction) and before <em>conflict </em>- therefore, it presents us with characters and events that will take place in the <em>conflict </em>part of the play. <em>Rising action</em> shows us what happened that led to the <em>conflict</em>.

In Antigone, the protagonist decided to disobey Creon by burying her brother, which later on leads to the conflict for Creon: he has to decide whether he wants to help his relative, Antigone, or whether to uphold the law that he as a ruler made.

How do you assemble a graduation announcement? I just got my graduation announcements, invitations, and thank you cards today in
In-s [12.5K]

The invitations are for everyone (mostly relatives and close friends) that will be able to join you in your graduation and will have reserved seats during the ceremony itself. On the other, the announcements are given to those who require more time to prepare for your graduation – they may be the ones living far away from you and/or those whom you see rarely because of their tight schedule.

The larger envelopes are used to contain your smaller envelopes. The larger ones are the ones used for mailing purposes and for formality. The smaller envelopes are the ones that hold your announcement and other important details for your graduation, they usually are more intimately labelled “For Dad”, “Nana”, etc. Your seal should be placed in the smaller envelope. Moreover, your clear sheets can be cut so they will fit your invitation. You can scribble on them or you may use them as decorative purposes. Just make sure that all the necessary details are put in the clear sheets if ever you plan to write on them. 

Lastly, you should send your “Thank You” notes to those who attended and congratulated you on your event. Priority should be given to those who attended and then to those who exerted effort for your special day, respectively.

We consider them the best astronauts in the world
Anarel [89]

Answer:

The correct answer is actually the best astronauts in the world.

Explanation:

An object complement follows a direct object with the purpose of renaming it or stating what it has become. Certain verbs commonly attract object complements, such as to consider, to call, to to create, to make, etc. <u>It is important to remember that the object complement can be a noun, a pronoun, an adjective, or a </u><u>phrase</u><u>.</u> Study the example below:

- We consider them <u>intelligent</u>.

"Them" is the direct object of "consider". It is followed by the adjective "intelligent", which functions as the object complement. Notice that the sentence we are supposed to analyze is similar:

- We consider them <u>the best astronauts in the world</u>.

This time, the object "them" has a whole phrase as its complement, "the best astronauts in the world". It's as if we are answering a question about the object. For the first sentence, what do we consider them? Intelligent. For the second one, what do we consider them? The best astronauts in the world.
