This question is missing the answer options. I was able to find them online. They are the following:

1. piquancy; savior faire; preclusion.

2. magnanimous; querulous; punctilious.

3. sinecure; amenity; magnanimity.

Answer:

1. The news anchor of the morning show is famous for his facial expressions and the piquancy of his quick wit.

2. Sheena is famous for speaking in a querulous manner when she doesn't get exactly what she wants.

3. The new housing complex near the highway has every amenity a resident could ask for.

Explanation:

To answer this question, we must first understand the context given in each sentence. Only then can we choose the appropriate word according to its meaning.

<u>1. The wit of the anchor is being complimented in an interesting way. This is similar to the way we would compliment a sarcastic but funny person. With that in mind, we can choose piquancy as the best option. This word suggests spiciness, be it literal or figurative.</u>

<u>2. The context refers to when Sheena does not get what she wants, which already leads us to assume she is not happy about it. In that case, we can choose querulous, which means "pettish" or "waspish". Sheena most likely complains when things don't go her way.</u>

<u>3. This sentence refers to housing and what residents can expect. The best word is amenity, which refers to services or to the infrastructure of the place. Examples would be a covered parking lot or a fitness room in a building.</u>

1.He said "I am a doctor ". indirect speech
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

1. He said that he is a doctor.

2. Rice was cooked by her.

3. What have you brought?

4. Have you had your meal?

5. Who is cooking now?

6. Do you have medicine?

7. Where will you go on Monday?

Explanation:

<u>1. He said that he is a doctor.</u>

Indirect speech is when a speech spoken is relayed to another person by using indirect words, changing some of the words while still retaining the meaning of the whole speech.

<u>2. Rice was cooked by her.</u>

Passive voice is when the object comes in front and the verb acts upon the subject.

<u>3. What have you brought?</u>

The "what" question will ask a question asking 'what' is done.

<u>4. Have you had your meal?</u>

The "yes/no" question is when the answer will either be yes/ no.

<u>5. Who is cooking now?</u>

The "who" question asks the question of "who" as the main answer.

<u>6. Do you have medicine?</u>

A positive sentence relays a positive answer.

<u>7. He has no hat.</u>

A negative sentence contains negative words like "no, not" etc.

<u>8. Where will you go on Monday?</u>

The "where" question asks the place or location of an action.

(MC)Choose the correctly punctuated sentence.
Fiesta28 [93]
A, C and D are incorrect. The question mark belongs after the question, not at the end of the sentence.

Answer: B) <span>"Are you a doctor?" she asked.

Why?

Because the question mark is placed inside the quotation marks after the end of the question. Thus, the answer is B.</span>

According to Kant, one barrier to enlightenment is _____.
AVprozaik [17]

The answer is C: most societies do not allow the level of freedom necessary to achieve enlightenment.

Kant argues in the brief but extremely important essay, <em>What is Enlightenment?, </em>that society, before the age of Enlightenment, which Kant precisely defines in this essay, has behaved like a minor in as much as a child cannot think for himself but rather is given the guidelines for his behavior. Kant then claims that it is time for society, and everyone in it, to become an adult and dare think for one´s self, imposing the guidelines for thought and action based on one´s own transcendental discovery of the limits of thought, what can be thought, and what that, in practical terms, entails for every individual´s freedom. This moment in society could not have been reached without the achievements gained through the Enlightenment that provide the necessary and qualified freedom that society as a whole lacked before it.
