Answer:

A. use of several short phrases connected by commas

Explanation:

Because in this excerpt, "I looked all around me, but I cannot say how long I remained there;<u><em> I was paralyzed with terror</em></u><u><em>,</em></u><u><em> cold with fright</em></u><u><em>, </em></u><u><em>ready to shout out</em></u><u><em>, </em></u><u><em>ready to die</em></u>." First the author describes what happens which could be a full sentence on its own, but the author decided to conjoin the two sentences with a semicolon and teh second sentences lists three or more concepts (which is one of the 5 rules of ocmmas) and lists what he is ready for.

nignag [31]

Answer:

If I wanted to leave the community I would ask to be released from it and if it was denied I would flee by the river.

Explanation:

"The Giver" presents a utopian society that, in an attempt to end any inequality in society, decides to monitor and make all the choices of society, including in relation to its professions and relationships. In chapter 6 of this book, we can see that it is possible to leave this community, if an individual wants to. In this chapter, we learn that there were cases of people who did not like the profession to which they were assigned and fled the community by crossing a river, but in this same chapter, we are informed that it is possible to lose a license to leave the community, if the individual does not want to do what you've been told.
