English

Answer:

The statement which best expresses how the second paragraph connects to the first paragraph in the excerpt is:

C. The second paragraph contrasts the benefits of ambition with the disadvantages described in the first paragraph.

Explanation:

The fact that the second paragraph begins with the conjunction "but" is already a sign of contrast. If a paragraph starts with "but", we can be safely sure that it is contradicting something that was stated previously. In this case, the first paragraph discusses and lists the possible disadvantages of being an ambitious person. In the second paragraph, on the other hand, the author contrasts that with the benefits of ambition, when ambition to do good deeds is void of ambition for mere fame.

She enjoy eating at two type of restaurants; Italian and Mexican.
LenaWriter [7]

There are a few errors in this sentence.

Here is what it should look like:<span></span>

<span><span>She enjoys eating at two types of restaurants, Italian and Mexican.</span></span>

<span><span>- the verb enjoy must agree with the subject she</span></span>

<span><span>-type must be plural because you are talking about two restaurants in your sentences</span></span>

<span><span>- I believe a comma should follow restaurants because there needs to be a pause. </span></span>

<span><span>You don't use a semicolon in this case because you are not connecting an independent clause. Independent clauses can stand alone meaning it is a complete thought/complete sentence. In your case Italian and Mexican cannot do cannot stand alone. </span></span>

<span><span>**Not only are semicolons used to connect independent clauses they are also used connect a thought meaning if the first part of the sentence is an independent clause but the second part isn't and it continues on talking about the first part of the sentence then you would put a semicolon between the two. For example: Love isn't something you experience; it's something you chose to do even when it is hard to do. (I made this sentence up).</span></span>

<span><span>Hopefully this helps and good luck.</span></span>

<span><span />

crimeas [40]

"Thus the small differences distinguishing varieties of the same species, steadily tend to increase, till they equal the greater differences between species of the same genus, or even of distinct genera."

<em>Genera</em> is plural for genus.  

<em>Genus</em> means biological classification of things that have common characteristics and can be divided into subcategories.  

Therefore, the correct answer is "same/similar family common characteristics."

GuDViN [60]

I do not agree with the statement "the school ‘s current policy should be changed to allow students to carry them".

Students should use cell phones for :

i. additional learning outside their school curriculum,

ii. developing skills via watching tutorials on online etc,

iii. developing research skills by finding relevant information.

However, hardly few students use cell phones appropriately.The major chunk of students use mobiles in wrong ways, like, watching bad content, playing online games, passing time on social media. All such things decrease the productivity of the students & fill their mind with lot of un-necessary content.

Hence, I strongly feel, cell-phones should be banned in school. Also, their usage should be restricted at homes too.
