Well, the excerpt itself states the possible topic numerous times throughout the passage - it should be loneliness.
The author states how lonely this young girl is, so lonely that she cannot even speak because of the fact that she is missing someone next to her. She doesn't want to be alone anymore because it is breaking her heart, and this is the feeling that the excerpt conveys.
"You ought not to think an hour upon the matter, but to spring to action at once."
The purpose of the words "hour" and "spring" is:
A) Most of the sentences contain comma splices.
A comma splice is the use of a comma to join two independent clauses. The comma is followed by a conjunction.
Two independent clauses:
1) You ought not to think an hour upon the matter.
2) You ought to spring to action at once.
conjunction used is BUT.
The correct answer is: Option C. Scientific evidence.
The Scientific Evidence advertisement technique has the objective of appealing to an audience using market statistics and survey results.
In the example, the statistic stating that "85% of doctors" use the product in question - althought it may appear exaggerating - deems it more realible for people to use without concern, and thus the Scientific Evidence method yields its goods.
