<span>The correct answer is b. The sea calmed, but no boats left shore. Option a is incorrect because there are unnecessary commas between the noun and its verb ("sea, calmed" and "boats, left"). Option c is incorrect because when using a semi colon, the phrases on both sides of it should be able to stand alone. While "the sea calmed" can work by itself, "but no boats, left shore" cannot, thus rendering the semi colon incorrect. Additionally, there is an unnecessary comma between the noun "boats" and the verb "left." Finally, option d is incorrect because there should be a comma before the conjunction "but."</span>
Henry argues that all colonists must act against the British Empire and attack it to ensure America's freedom and prosperity.
We can arrive at this answer because:
- Henry's speech was made to persuade the colonists to fight the British Empire.
- He claims that the British Empire has acted with violence and tyranny, harming and oppressing the settlers.
- To support these claims, Henry uses concrete and well-established evidence that reinforces his argument and makes the speech efficient.
- Henry does not use false statements, but is based on facts that can be confirmed by everyone.

The right answer is a. poetry.
Scops were professional poets that brought the epic poems to life. Playing harp, the scop would chant in a clear voice that carried over the shouts and laughter of the crowd, captivating them for hours on end with tales of courage, high drama, and tragedy. These epic poems were an oral art form: memorized and performed, not written down. Later, literacy spread through Britain, and poems were more likely to be recorded. Thus, only a fraction of Anglo-Saxon poetry has survived, in manuscripts produced centuries after the poems were originally composed.
Id say that its “to persuade your reader that you have a reasonable position”
