Answer:
the second one
Explanation:
well first lets find out what a run on sentence is
a run on sentence happens when two or more independent clauses are connected without using a comma, semi colon or a colon
in the sentence I went to the park then I went home there are two independent clauses, I went to the park and I went home. these independent clauses are not connected properly therefore this is the run-on sentence
The correct answer is: I made made my own barrel but you can buy them pretty cheaply now.
The main idea: Rain barrels are easy to install and use.
This idea needs to be supported with a sentence that relates in a logical and coherent way with it's content. In other words the following sentences need to demonstrate the reasons they barrel are cheap and easy to install, examples and facts can be given.
In the sentence chosen the author says that he made his own barrel, in this way he tries to show us that anyone can do it, an expert is not needed to perform this task, therefore they are "easy to install and use". By mentioning the low price he makes an implied relation, we associate cheap things with simple things, if the barrel was a complicated thing to use they would probably be more expensive.
The other options given just give general information related to barrels but are not able to connect with the main idea.
Answer:
Mrs. Stevenson is a lady who is disabled in her bed and only has the telephone within her reach. She is totally flustered and nervous and realizes that she could be the person who is gonna be killed.
Explanation:
This question refers to the work <em>Sorry, Wrong Number by Lucille Fletcher.
</em>
This lady had a lot of money and jewelry, and could not get out of bed as she was invalid.
She finds herself in front of a line crossing that allows her to listen to a conversation in which two individuals speak of the imminent murder of a woman who is gradually acquiring her characteristics, in her deranged mind and in reality.
She becomes more and more crazy and desperate from the moment everyone leaves her aside: it is confirmed that the police do not give credit to her request for help, the nurses are absent, the husband is unreachable, etc.
All this happens until she realizes that it is she herself who will be killed.
