Answer:
At this very moment, the International Space Station orbits Earth at a distance of 240 miles.
Explanation:
We use the simple present tense when we talk about actions that happen often, habitual actions, or truths that usually do not change or that take some time to change. For example: I sleep at 10 in the evening. / Dogs bark and birds fly. / Dora lives in Spain.
Therefore, since the orbit of the International Space Station is a truth that will most likely take long to change, it seems best to use the simple present to complete the sentence. Since the subject is third-person singular, we must add -s to the verb:
- At this very moment, the International Space Station orbits Earth at a distance of 240 miles.
Note: Another possibility would be the use of the present continuous: "is orbiting". However, that makes it seem this is just a temporary action that will, at any moment, change.
She went to the open door and stood in it and looked out among the tomato vines and “jimpson” weeds that constituted the garden.
That sentence helps the reader infer that it is summertime, because it shows that the garden is flourishing.
Answer:
If we're ignoring some of the options like your teacher said to do, then the answers are....
1. Literature (Refers to the story of Pinocchio)
2. Mythology (Refers to the Greek myth of the trojan horse)
3. Bible (Refers to the Bible)
4. Bible (Refers to the Bible)
5. Literature (Refers to a book/TV/Movie)
I honestly don't know what 3. and 4. are if they weren't the bible but it could be literature because the bible is a sacred text/book.
I hope I helped, Please correct me if I'm wrong!
The answer is C: formal and respectful.
In any speech the orator should strive to achieve a formal and respectful tone. Formal speech is characterized by being concise, direct, and well-structured to be as meaningful as possible in order to avoid ambiguities that could lead to miscomprehension. It should also be respectful in tone because it is addressed to school authorities, and all authority figures, by their own merit deserve a courteous and polite address.
