Answer:

From the given sentence and question, no verb is highlighted, but from the sentence, "If the speaker had been on time, the program would have begun on time", you can see that there is tautology as the word "on time" is used twice in the sentence when it could have been used only once.

Therefore, to correct this tautology, the sentence can be rewritten as: "If the speaker had been on time, the program would have begun early".

As a result of this, there is no incorrect verb form in the sentence, so it is safe to assume that the highlighted verb is correct.

Which statement best describes how the author uses rhetoric in
yanalaym [24]

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Read I Am Very Real, By Kurt Vonnegut, 1973

Which statement best describes how the author uses rhetoric in

paragraphs 4-5 to advance his argument? *

The author presents the contributions he has made to the country in order to prove  that he is a real American  

The author describes his background in order to explain why coarse language is  simply part of how he speaks.

The author portrays himself as a father and a veteran as further proof of his desire to  shield the nation's youth from harmful books.

The author explains that he is a man of integrity in order to show why the school's  reactions were excessive and wrong.

Answer: The author explains that he is a man of integrity in order to show why the school's  reactions were excessive and wrong.

Explanation:

Vonnegut defends his integrity to show that having his book and his entire work deemed as evil was wrong. He presents his actions after the burning of his books, doing "absolutely nothing to exploit the disgusting

news from Drake," as evidence of his integrity. Furthermore, he describes himself as a loving father and an honored veteran to better support his argument.

Under the Antiquities Act of 1906, the Organic Act of 1916, and other federal laws, the US government has the power to take cust
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

I believe the best answers are:

blank 1 -- C) that has

blank 2 -- A) NO CHANGE

Explanation:

The original sentence, "...the US government has the power to take custody of land when having historical significance or great natural beauty" is a bit ambiguous. Who has historical significance? We assume it is the land. But, in the way it is phrased, it could also be the government. To eliminate such ambiguity, the best option is letter C) that has. It will help determine a certain land can be taken. What land? The one that has historical significance.

As for the sentence, "The designation of a territory as a national park, national monument, or other types of protected area can limit activities," I don't see any reasons for changes. Especially because of the word "other", which needs to be completed by a plural noun - eliminating options B and C. Letter D wouldn't be incorrect, but the transformation of "protected area" into an adjective for "types" is unnecessary. The sentence is perfect the way it is and, therefore, needs NO CHANGE.
