Ridgetop Development
ruslelena [56]
We can see the author is arguing against ridgetop development, but we can also see he has made an appeal in the last paragraph.
It says, "Ridgetop development must be stopped while thoughtful, effective measures are put in place to restrict future development."

Thus, we can come to the conclusion that the best choice/answer would be:

B. Development should be stopped temporarily while restrictions are put in place for future housing developments.

It basically restates the appeal made by the author.

Is it ever grammatically correct to place a comma after the word 'and' when the 'and' is separating two main clauses
Dafna11 [192]

Use commas to separate words and word groups in a simple series of three or more items.

Example: My estate goes to my husband, son, daughter-in-law, and nephew.

Note: When the last comma in a series comes before and or or (after daughter-in-law in the above example), it is known as the Oxford comma. Most newspapers and magazines drop the Oxford comma in a simple series, apparently feeling it's unnecessary. However, omission of the Oxford comma can sometimes lead to misunderstandings.

Example: We had coffee, cheese and crackers and grapes.

Adding a comma after crackers makes it clear that cheese and crackers represents one dish. In cases like this, clarity demands the Oxford comma.

We had coffee, cheese and crackers, and grapes.

Fiction and nonfiction books generally prefer the Oxford comma. Writers must decide Oxford or no Oxford and not switch back and forth, except when omitting the Oxford comma could cause confusion as in the cheese and crackers example.

Hope this helped! :)

In what way is the symbol of the green light ironic
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

The "single green light" on Daisy's dock that Gatsby gazes wistfully at from his own house across the water represents the "unattainable dream". The ironic part of this symbol is that: B. What Gatsby wants is behind him, in the past, not in front of him.
