Explanation:
The elements that are placed between commas are nonrestrictive. They are not essential for the speaker to express meaning in the sentence. If removed, they would technically not make that much of a difference, the most important part of the message being conveyed anyway.
On the other hand, restrictive elements are not placed between commas. They are essential for the meaning of the sentence to be complete. For instance, in the sentence "He will stay in the room at the top of the stairs," the restrictive element determines which room the uncle will be staying in. If we remove it, the sentence could refer to any room.
The following three phrases critique the class system as the creature , Frankenstein, reveals his dawning underatanding of it:
- no money ( The creature realises that the possession of money is one of the key elements in the class system, but he possesses no money);
- no friends ( He refers to <em>your fellow-creatures. </em>They valued from you your possessions );
- no kind of property. ( Property of immense wealth. It was generally inherited).
I am sorry if this is not the answer (I am not a ELA nerd.) but to me it seems as if it it an implied metaphor.
Answer:
Correct answer is C.
Explanation:
"Yield to any road users who arrived before you",
We can apply this to the road situation. When we are in a situation of a four-way stop with no traffic light, the first car that arrives at the intersection has "the right of way" or he has the priority to go first. The location of the cars or their direction don't have any importance; the car that arrives first at the intersection has the priority to go first ( first in, first out).
