Answer:

I'm pretty sure the punctuation error is in the third sentence;

<em>'This struggle plays out chiefly through the protagonist; Charlie, who anchors the film brilliantly.'</em>

Just after the word 'protagonist', the author uses a semi-colon (;). A semi-colon is used to link two separate clauses that have similar ideas together. It turns two clauses into one.

In this situation, the semi-colon is not doing that, because that would imply that if we were to separate the "two clauses", it would look like this:

<em>"This struggle plays out chiefly through the protagonist. Charlie, who anchors the film brilliantly." </em>

This wouldn't make sense. Instead of a semi-colon, the author should've used a comma!

Allusive refers to the magician's ability to create illusions<br> True<br> False
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

The correct answer to this is:

“False”


The word allusive does not have anything to do with magic. By definition, allusive means ‘having reference to something indirect or inferred’. I think the correct word to this is illusive, which means deceptive or illusory.

Read the excerpt from Carlito’s letter to the editor.
adelina 88 [10]

The evidence the author uses to support the false analogy is that college sports are just as important as bookstores.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The author uses a false relationship between university games and university bookstores.
  • He uses this to show that students who work in bookstores receive salaries, but university players don't, but they are of equal importance.
  • The evidence that the author shows to confirm this relationship is that college games are as important as bookstores.
  • However, both the relationship and the evidence convey an incorrect idea.

Bookstores are part of the educational system that universities should promote, university games are not. In addition, many college athletes have scholarships, while students working in the campus do so for salaries or lower funding.
