Correct answer: “only silence lay over the fields and woods and marsh”.
Explanation: This sentence does not negate anything and it doesn’t point at anything missing or lacking either, unlike previous sentences. It simply describes the way silence had fallen over the fields, the woods and the marsh, like a blessing after a storm.
A and B are not run-on sentences because A doesn't even have a comma in it. And B has a semicolon. Something that would prevent a run-on sentence.
It comes down to C or D. D has a nonrestrictive clause.
My finally answer comes to C.
I think the correct answer would be "understated."
Answer:
A. Allusion to midwives and the birth of babies.
B. Allusion to Masonry.
C. Allusion to Uncle Wiggily.
Explanation:
Allusion is a figure of speech that allows a text to make a reference, a quote, about a person, a place, a book, profession, work of art, a film, among other things. In short, an allusion is a reference to any element that is not part of the text, but that is used to promote greater understanding and association at the time of reading.
The allusions made above were used to promote an extension of the meaning of each sentence, so we can say that the author used the allusions to create concepts that would allow the reader to better understand what he was reading.
