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.

• Pg. 113 - In lines 1-6, identify where Wollstonecraft uses antithesis.  What is her purpose in using antithesis in this passag
Trava [24]

In the first paragraph of <em>A vindication of the rights of women</em>, Wollstonecraft uses antithesis when she says "that either nature has made a great  difference between man and man, or that the civilization which has  hitherto taken place in the world has been very partial". She does this to state the main point of her argument: that men are women are born equally but it is civilization that creates the differences between them.

She immediately states that she has read various books about education and "observed the conduct of parents and the managements of schools", and it is "the neglected education" of women the source of their misery. This is, women would be as able as men if they received the same education.

. This version of Grendel is more ________ than the version in John Gardner’s novel
Leni [432]
<span>In the original tale of Beowulf, Grendel was purely a monster. Gardner's novel focuses on the part of the original Anglo-Saxon epic that points out Grendel came of "the race of Cain"--in other words, he was a human being, but cursed. Gardner's Grendel imagines what it must have been like to be Grendel, capable of human thought and speech and feeling, but treated as vermin, the ultimate vengeful outcast. It uses Grendel's point of view to ask the question, "What does it mean to be human?"</span>
