Answer:
But my assurance was ill-founded, for in spite of all my coaxing, Nab only circled round and round me until I was dizzy trying to keep track of him.
(Note: There could be some definite improvements for all of these sentences. What I'm about to say may not be consistent with how other people learned.)
Explanation:
"At the sound of my voice there was a sharp little bark from behind, such as Nab alone could give when I had an exceptionally delicate morsel for him."
The sentence, "At the sound of my voice there was a sharp little bark from behind" is an independent clause; there should be no comma after an independent clause.
"But my assurance was ill-founded, for in spite of all my coaxing, Nab only circled round and round me until I was dizzy trying to keep track of him."
For is a conjunction; any conjunctions after an independent clause are fine.
"Nab suddenly made a dash so close that his flippers brushed my side. He snapped the fish out of my hand, and in the same instant he was again beyond reach."
There needs to be a comma after "instant" so that it would make an independent clause after it.
"By this time I had begun to feel pretty well exhausted, and when I suddenly thought of the undertow, I decided to swim back."
A comma should be placed after "time" to make an independent clause after.
Answer:
2.
Explanation:
In his famous speech '<u>Give me liberty or give me death</u>,' Patrick Henry urged the American Colonies to fight against England for freedom. The speech was delivered on 23rd March 1775 to the Second Virginia Convention. The speech was highly rhetorical.
The sentence that suggests the belief of Henry in the sufficiency of armed forces to the colonists is the second option.
<u><em>"Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power."</em></u>
The word 'means' is used to refer to the armed resources that Henry believed to be bestowed by God of nature to them.
So, the correct answer is option 2.
