Read the excerpt from "Broken Chain." He [Alfonso] turned his bike over, balancing it on the handlebars and seat, and flossed th

e spokes with the sock. When he was finished, he pressed a knuckle to his teeth until they tingled. Why does Soto most likely describe Alfonso’s attention to his bike and his teeth at the same time? to emphasize that Alfonso expects everything to be perfect to reveal that Alfonso is too focused on unimportant things to illustrate how much Alfonso cares about outward appearances to show that Alfonso often puts himself in uncomfortable situations

Answer:

to illustrate how much Alfonso cares about outward appearances

Explanation:

Soto most likely described Alfonso's attention to his bike and his teeth at the same time to show that he cared too much about outward appearances.

From the excerpt, Alfonso is described as balancing his bike on the handlebars and seat and cleaning the spokes with a sock and at the same time, he pressed a knuckle to his teeth until it tingled which shows that he cared about the appearance of his bike and teeth. Alfonso shows great attention to detail in both cases because he likely cares about his outward appearance.

For which information must you cite your source in a research paper? A. original ideas that are not your own B. your own origina
Oksanka [162]

The answer would be the first choice or A. "Original ideas that are <em>not</em> your own."

Any piece of information that does not belong to you would require a citation, otherwise it would be considered <em>plagiarism. </em>B and C are incorrect because both of those things belong to you, and therefore don't require citation. D is also incorrect because a general fact doesn't belong to any one person. For example, if you wanted to include the information that dogs can't eat chocolate, that wouldn't require a citation because that is general knowledge that most people are aware of.

Creating fear in us, the tour guide turned out the lights in the passage.
Studentka2010 [4]

"Creating fear in us" is a gerund verbal phrase. Option A is correct.

A gerund phrase always begin with a gerund,(an ing word), and may include other modifiers and/or objects. Gerund phrases always function as nouns, so they will be subjects, subject complements, or objects in the sentence. So, to put it simply, a gerund is a noun formed with a verb ending in ing. In this particular case the gerung in the sentence is the verb "creating;"(create+ing).
