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.

Two lines/phrases which strongly show this are:

“The people who did not begin and end each day in shades of gray”

and “world of colour-reds, blues, and strolling down the street”

<h3>Which two lines best reflect how the setting influences Inge’s daily life, Explain briefly?</h3>

This line “the people who did not begin and end each day in shades of grey. it was alive and brimming with activity” shows she thinks that the life of these people was not just grey like her own life, but it was full of colours. it was also very alive and full of activity.

The phrase “world of colour-reds, blues, and strolling down the street” shows her enviously thinking of men in red and blue shirts and ties walking on the road.

Some other phrases showing that Inge was envious of the outside world are, “Inge was drawn to the sounds” and “glimpse of a whole new world”.

Thus, this could be the answer.

Make three inferences about General Zaroff. Provide an example from the text for each to explain how you know this.
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Despite the barbaric intent of General Zaroff's desire to hunt human beings, he still displays a sense of honor and chivalry that he must have maintained from his military days. When he announces that he plans to hunt Rainsford that night, Rainsford wonders what he can expect if the impossible happens--if he wins.

His clothes essentially depict him as an aristocrat, someone of a higher social class than Rainsford.  He is very distinguished looking; we assume he might be Russian because of Ivan who is a Cossack (like a Russian cavalryman).

General Zaroff is so skilled at hunting that he no longer finds enjoyment in hunting simple game like deer or ducks because he finds it too easy. He has been hunting for an extensive amount of time and he likes the challenge of hunting game without instinct but with reason. Rainsford is also a very smart and skilled hunter which interests General Zaroff for some exciting game.  

General Zaroff began hunting humans because he became bored with hunting animals. He claimed that he lost interest in hunting animals, and he eventually realized that the reason was that he had become such a great hunter that the animals never eluded him.  So as he found that hunting animals meant no challenge to him anymore, he interested in hunting humans.

What kind of spelling error do you see in the following passage?
marin [14]

Answer:

The spelling error happens with the word "accept". The word should be spelled "except". The error is caused by the similar pronunciation of the two words.

Explanation:

It is not uncommon for certain words to be confused with another because of the way they sound. That is what happens with "accept" and "except". However, mistaking one for the other can lead to an error, since they convey very different meanings.<u> "Accept" is a verb that means to receive, to welcome. On the other hand, "except" can function as a preposition or a conjunction, and it means "excluding" or "leaving out".</u> Take a look at the examples below:

- I accept your apologies.

- I will visit everyone except cousin Marjorie.

<u>Now, in the question, the sentence's context asks for the use of "except" instead of "accept". The speaker means that everyone but him (excluding him) made two-dimensional works.</u> The sentence should be:

- Everyone, that is, except for me.
