Explanation:

by the time when the end came they didn't bother

alone would also work.

The other responder used in. I hadn't thought of that. Common usage would probably use "in" but what I have pointed out as a use is also possible. The point is that whatever you use, it must be a preposition.

By could also be used if there is an extensively long series of events before that “end” occurs. Other than that, “in” is most commonly written.

Summarize What secret plan do Pyramus and Thisbe make?

Vanyuwa [196]

Pyramus and Thisbe are star-crossed lovers, and many believe they provided the inspiration for Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Both couples had sad fates. Pyramus and Thisbe were next door neighbors, but sadly their families hated one another. Because they lived next door, their homes shared a wall. In this wall was a tiny crack that allowed the two lovers to communicate. Madly in love, the two devised a plan: they would sneak out in the middle of the night and run off together. The plan was to meet by a mulberry tree and elope. Thisbe gets there first, but sees a lioness all bloody from hunting. She runs off, accidentally leaving a piece of her clothing behind. The lioness sniffs it and gets blood on it. As a result, when Pyramus arrives, he believes Thisbe has been killed. In despair, he kills himself. Thisbe later returns to find Pyramus dead, and she decides to join him by killing herself. The two lovers met a sad end, all because their families hated each other so much.

Find and correct the subject-verb agreement errors in this paragraph. There are ~10.

JulijaS [17]

Answer:Explanation:

The subject-verb agreement errors in the paragraph above are underlined and bolded below:

Since a desktop computer, complete with headphones for sound-based functions, exist in every office, work should be simpler.

The main subject here referred to in the sentence is “a desktop computer”, which is singular. A singular verb should follow. EXISTS is the right singular verb to use.

However, neither increased efficiency nor improved employee morale have resulted from our switch from paper to computers.

According to the rule of subject-verb agreement, when “neither…nor” is used, a singular verb is used. The correct verb to be used here would be HAS.

Indeed, each worker’s tasks has become more complex.

The subject “tasks” is in the plural form, and should attract a plural verb HAVE.

In the past, for example, one invoice or two purchase orders was needed to complete a request for supplies.

The last listed noun that serves as the subject in the sentence here, “two purchase orders”, determines the verb form that should follow. So, the plural verb “WERE” should follow.

The process, including online confirmation, now require five separate documents.

“The process” is a singular, which should attract a singular verb, “REQUIRES”.

The result of this unnecessary complication, not surprisingly, are frustration and curses.

The main subject here is “the result”, which is singular should attract a singular verb “IS”.

Everyone, including the supervisors, are fed up with the extra work.

“Everyone” is the main subject here, and attracts a singular verb “IS”.

When our division implement a new computer system next month, I expect at least two of my co-workers to quit.

“Our division” is taken as a single unit in this sentence, and should attract a singular verb, “IMPLEMENTS”.

Fifteen hours of training are needed to learn the new system, and that is more time than any of us have to waste.

“fifteen hours of training” is used here as a single unit specifying time, and should attract the singular verb, “IS”.

Also, in the later part of the sentence, “any of us” should attract a singular verb “HAS”.

Below is the paragraph after correction of the several errors:

Most jobs now require computer skills, but the digital revolution has not improved our quality of life. Since a desktop computer, complete with headphones for sound-based functions, exists in every office, work should be simpler. However, neither increased efficiency nor improved employee morale has resulted from our switch from paper to computers. Indeed, each worker’s tasks have become more complex. In the past, for example, one invoice or two purchase orders were needed to complete a request for supplies. The process, including online confirmation, now requires five separate documents.

What motivates Odysseus to tell a lie to the Cyclops?

muminat

He lied to him because he knew that the Cyclops would call his brothers, when blinded, so he said his name was "nobody" so as to have the Cyclops yell out: "Nobody has blinded me". This in turn caused his brothers to not react at all, because they thought that gods had blinded his brother, therefore he is yelling that Nobody blinded him. Let's say then that the third sentence is the only one that can fit the story.
