10.B

Explanation:

"A fragment resembles a sentence in two ways. Both groups of words begin with a capital letter and conclude with an end mark—usually a period (  .  ) but sometimes a question mark (  ?  ) or an exclamation point (  !  ).

The one important difference is that a fragment does not contain a main clause. Like an engine, the main clause powers a complete sentence, propelling the reader through the development of an idea. A fragment, missing this essential component, stalls on the page.

To have a main clause, you must find three things: a subject, a verb, and a complete thought. If you are missing one of these three items, a fragment is the result.

Here are examples of fragments:

ex) And yawned loudly enough to make everyone in class turn around.

Subject = Ø ; verb = yawned; complete thought = Ø.

ex) The boy sitting on the fire escape, dropping water balloons on the pedestrians below.

Subject = boy; verb = Ø; complete thought = Ø.

ex) After Gabriel ate half a box of donuts.

Subject = Gabriel; verb = ate; complete thought = Ø."

Identify the suffix to which each rule applies.
Stells [14]

Answer:

Group I. If the root is a full word, the ending is usually -able.

Group II. When the root is a full word except for a final e, the forms usually are spelled with -able and drop the finale.

Group III. The suffix -able always follows the letter i. Thus, if you follow our English custom of changing y to i in these words, you will add -able.

Group IV. When the root has other forms built on the letter a, the -able form is used.

Group V. When the root ends in hard c orhard g, -able is used. The suffix -able is the only possible ending after hard c or g, in order to keep the proper pronunciation.

Group VI. When the root is not a full word, -ible is used.

Group VII. When the word has an immediate -tion form, -ible is used.

Group VIII. When the root ends in ns, miss, or soft c or g, -ible is used.

"Ha! ha! ha!--he! he! he!--a very good joke indeed--an excellent jest. We shall have many a rich laugh about it at the palazzo--
Nikolay [14]
The answer is...
<span>Fortunato thinks Montresor has played a joke on him.
</span>
He literally is so drunk, that he doesn't understand that his "friend" was building a wall to cover up the room where he had chained him inside the catacombs. IF he were to be hoping that this is all a joke (second choice) He would be able to understand the situation, wouldn't be laughing... and try as hard as he could to get out. In this case he is just laughing at the "joke" his "friend" has played on him.  

Good Luck! :)
