Answer:

Option C. The statement that best summarizes the central idea of the excerpt is that The Civil War occurred because people in the South wanted to protect and spread the practice of slavery.

Explanation:

In his inaugural address in 1865, President Lincoln expresses his views on the Civil War. He states how the geographic distribution and location of colored slaves, and the interest that this group represented for some people, was the main cause of the War. The President puts the responsibility of the war on the people from the Southern States, who refused to liberate and abolish slavery, and who decided to defend their own interest to the great extent of a civil war.

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Add a subject and verb

Explanation:

The group of words does not express a complete thought but can be corrected by adding a subject and a predicate. For instance, the following revision includes the subject Michelle and the verb ran:

Michelle ran with her friends across the wooden bridge.

The rest of the choices are incorrect because adding an adjective, an adverb, a prepositional phrase or a transitional phrase still does not help form a simple sentence that conveys a complete thought.

In keeping with traditional villanelle structure, the last line of this poem should be:

Kay [80]

Answer:

A. who scorned the tick of the falling weather.

Explanation:

A traditional villanelle is a poetic form that has five tercets and a quatrain that acts as the closing stanza. The tercets are a three-line stanza while a quatrain is a four-line stanza. Moreover, it follows a pattern where the first and last line of the first tercet acts as the third line in the following tercets, alternating between the two.

Simply put, the first line of the first stanza will become the third line in the second and fourth stanza. Similarly, the third line of the first stanza will become the third line of the third and fifth stanzas. and these two lines will become the closing lines of the quatrain.

So, in keeping with the traditional villanelle structure, the last line of the poem "Lament" by Sylvia Plath will be "who scorned the tick of the falling weather."
