Answer:

B. Eddie left his soccer practice early so that he could make his tutoring appointment.

Explanation:

A clause can be defined as a group of words that comprises of both a subject and predicate (finite verb).

In English language, there are two (2) main types of clause used in forming a sentence and these are;

I. A dependent clause: it can be defined as a type of clause that is inserted into another clause to make meaning or express a complete thought.

II. An independent clause: it can be defined as a clause that expresses a complete thought while standing alone as a simple sentence and comprises of at least a subject and a verb (predicate)

In this scenario, "Eddie left his soccer practice early" is an independent clause while "so that he could make his tutoring appointment" is a dependent clause.

Hence, the best way to combine the information in the two clauses given above is to remove the punctuation mark (period) after "early" and then combine both the dependent clause and independent clause with a lowercase phrase "so that."

In conclusion, when an independent clause is followed by a dependent clause, no comma is required to separate them.

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

D. The author follows the comment with "Mrs. Sue lied again."

Explanation:

Verbal irony is a type of lie that is added to the text. This kind of irony is perceived when the character says something, but actually thinks the opposite of what he said, that is, what the character says is not really what he wants and does not represent his real thoughts about a certain thing.

In the case shown in the question above, we can conclude that the use of verbal irony was established to show that Sue was lying, since she said something, but wants the exact opposite.

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

1. Part that includes subject and main action

- Dr. Nima Mesgarani and his team are developing

2. Part that is a detail about the subject

- Professor of electrical engineering

3. Part that is the outcome of the main action

- technology that may someday translate people's thought into electronically produced speech.

Explanation:

I have been able to match each sentence to the part the question answers.

In no. 1 you discover that it mentions the name of the subject and his team and also informed us the action they are carrying out: "developing".

In no. 2, we see that the information/detail of the subject was clearly stated, that he is "Professor of electrical engineering".

In no. 3, we are giving the outcome of the main action. The outcome is that the technology that is being developed may someday translate people's thought into electronically produced speech.
