The answer to your question would be that the sentence "John wants to really do well on this exam" contains the following error: Split infinitive.

A split infinitive, also known as as cleft infinitive, is a grammatical construction in which a word or phrase comes between the <em>to </em>and the bare infinitive form of the <em>to</em> form of the infinitive verb. Usually, an adverb or adverbial phrase comes between them. In this case, the word between the infinitive particle and the bare form is the adverb "really".

This sentence contains split infinitive. John wants to really do well - you see that the infinitive is split here by introducing <em>really </em>between <em>to </em>and <em>do. </em>If you can, you should avoid doing that, it would be better to say John really wants to do well...

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

169 times

Explanation:

It is spun 1352 times, and the sections are equal, so it has an equal chance of landing on each spinner each time. So to get the answer for how many times it lands on one of the section, you divide 1352 by the 8 section and get 1352/8=169

Answer:

The message I get from this is that while there is much to be seen in the world, we must not lose sight of our primary responsibilities in life. For Santiago (according to the King of Salem), every person has a responsibility to pursue his or her Personal Legend. Nothing else can be as important. In doing so, all the things that are significant in life will eventually come to the person who stays focused anyway. When the boy in the story does not spill the oil, he has missed everything around him. If the boy is spilling the oil, he is losing sight of his original goal, losing focus because of the things he sees in the world as he moves about. Soon, his task of carrying the oil safely has been forgotten, and the oil gone—much like the loss of an exceptional opportunity when one is distracted from one's purpose.

The King of Salem is telling Santiago to see all that he can of the world. (This make sense, for how can Santiago follow omens or learn the Universal Language, etc., if he does not observe the world around him?) However, Melchizedek is also reminding Santiago not to be distracted by what he sees so much that he loses sight of his purpose in life: he must maintain a balance on his journey.
