Answer:

Cesar Chavez spoke for many when he said the following<u>, </u>“We cannot seek achievement for ourselves and forget about progress and prosperity for our community.…Our ambitions must be broad enough to include the aspirations and needs of others, for their sakes and for our own.”

Despite the many cautions from her mother, the young girl still announced<u>, </u>“I want ketchup on my French fries. I don’t want mayonnaise!”

In describing her art to her potential patrons, the sculptor stated loftily<u>,</u> “I believe that what I create is more than something to gaze upon and admire. I certainly hope to transcend the typical senses and bring those who see my work to a higher plane of awareness and sensation.”

Explanation:

For the three given sentences, the use of a comma will best suit them. One reason is, since they are all quotes or rather spoken words or conversations, the use of the comma is required.

Commas are used just before the start of a spoken speech, before the speech begins in a sentence. So, for the three given sentences, commas will be the correct punctuation needed.

Which sentence uses underlined work correctly <br><br> As the sole decision
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Since the Leader consolidated all the power for his own use, the country is now essentially an <u>autocracy.</u>

<u />

Explanation:

The options you were given are the following:

  • As the sole decision-maker, the CEO considered himself the <u>democratic</u> leader of his company.
  • Since the Leader consolidated all the power for his own use, the country is now essentially an <u>autocracy.</u>
  • The solitary queen ruled the <u>democracy</u> with an iron fist and allowed no interference with her decisions.
  • The <u>autocratic</u> government was particularly popular for its habit of implementing citizens' suggestions.

Democracy is a system of government in which power belongs to the people and is exercised by them directly or through freely elected representatives. It's also referred to as the rule of the majority. The first and the third options are incorrect as the CEO and the queen are the only ones making decisions, instead of the people.

Autocracy is a system of government in which one person has absolute power. The fourth option is incorrect, because an autocratic government wouldn't listen to the citizens' suggestions. The third option is the correct one.
